Ricky Chu is bashing the Ka on like every page man... I really dont have a problem with it, but to the people who perfer the Ka over the Sr I feel for cause that dude is just talking mad shit on every page... The new issue is dedicated to the 240sx/Silvia, so there are alot of pages for him to bash on. In one quote he says "There is some hope for all you dorky Ka lovers out there" another he says "I be sure to use my Ka to tow my boat" he also said some other shit but I forgot... oh he also says that "People who say real racers use Ka motors are stupid" also your stupid if you say " Sr is for show"...>> which I agree, you are stupid if you say any of those to lines...

don't concern yourself with nonsense. Just go about your regular life and laugh at his Stupid Street a$$ when he says stuff like that.

ricky chu is a dumb ass thats needs to be slaped... he has a s-15 sr that is modded quite nicly and is not making 300hp!!

he needs to me slaped with a ka24de connecting rod and piston!:mad:

haha a 1500 dollar modification to a KA will work his ass like bubba in prison.

Derek Greaser has got his 250rwhp "Daily Driver" KA24DET 240sx into the 12's..... thats just sickening lol. Id love to see CHU boy line up against that, not that he ever would. He would probably just talk trash and say its a waiste of time to keep his ego from being smashed like a snail being run over by a dump truck.

Who the fuck is this Ricky Chu guy?

Where did he derieve his credibility?

Who the Fuck cares? I'll line up against him!

hes some ricer punk editor in Super Street who happens to own a S14 with a gay ass looking S15 conversion haha.....

he sucks cock

I wonder how he got the job... My grammer and spelling isn't perfect, but, after looking over his website i think i can do a much better job of conveying a complete thought.

Yeah I read it. Hes an asshole.

Quote: (Chu's or Lose)

"So try not to get too offended when I poke fun at all the KA24 truck motor lovers. Who knows, maybe next time I'll get run over by a huge semitruck and be reincarnated as a KA lover living in Fontucky. That way I'll know what it feels like to get laughed at and have chicken nuggets thrown at me every time I yell out stupid things like "real racers use KA24" or "SR20DET motors are for people who want to shown off.""

What the hell is his problem? His car proves the last statement true. All that S14 sees is a showroom floor. God forbid he'd ever take it to a track :rolleyes:.

Write a letter to SS... See if they'll publish it.

Ricky Chu is a loser, he bashes people that prefer the KA. He's had everything handed to him on a silver platter and then he just goes and disses people that may not have enough money to get a SR.

k guys, im too high or drunk to read ALLLLLLLLLLL of the reply's, so i'll say 1 thing. ricky chu sux.




... thats it, to wasted to think further

:grinyes: <===== green, i like green :smooch:

I'm sitting here with the new issue (or not so new) of super street and it has Nissan Nissan and more Nissans where are all the ricer honduh's ? I'd like to see some more top fuel hondas or something.

Though i'd like to point out that none of the staff look competent and probably are so up on themselves that they won't listen to themselves.

There's also another thing - if they actually new something proper about cars then why would they be writing for a Magazine.

Ricky Chu < Dog Shit

I'm getting more annoyed with each article as it seems they won't talk about riding in the cars. How they built the cars no. It just seems to me that they get some digital photo's slap someshit on get the mod's list and make it last a couple of pages with some added useless and clueless trivia.


:chair:

i just think it's really funny that although you guys all seem to hate super street and this ricky chu fellow, but you guys seems to always get quite worked up every single F**kin time either of the two is mentioned. if you guys seriously hate this guy, then why the hell are you hanging off every single word that enters that "god forsaken" magazine.

"super street sux, yet i seem to memorize exact quotes and am able to use them on cue."

the more i browse the 240 forums here, the more smack talking i see. and i've heard every single response you can dish at me. after browsing the internet, it seems like this forum hates on people the most. NOT every other 240sx forum out there acts like some of you do. other forums are actually quite nice to people who want to learn, even if they ask "newbie" questions. and NO, i won't leave these forums cuz i've grown to love AF, even if i disagree w/ some people.

if you were offended by my post, by all means delete it or watever. just my opinion, i didn't post this to influence anyone or to offend anyone. you can flame me all you like, cuz honestly it doenst matter. my 2 cents, u can take it or leave it.

oh by the way, i like super street. i've been an avid reader for 5+ years. i think their articles aren't written to be taken so seriously. just trying to lighten people up. take a hint. i know this post is long and i sound like a whiney little bitch, but yea i had to vent.

i have an excuse i subscribed to the bloody thing so i have to read it.

AND DON'T SAY I DON'T HAVE TO CUZ I PAID GOOD MONEY FOR THIS TRASH.

I just look at the pictures these days tho even though it seems like most of them come of the internet

you're subject to your own opinion, but i seriously think it's a good magazine to read. not every automotive enthusiast magazine has to be full of facts and technical stuff. i know my previous post makes me sound like an ass, but thats just my opinions about some people around here. thanks nsx for not taking it offensively (at least i dont think you did)

.

We are concerned and posting because the articles and quotes in question are directly related to our way of life. and our prefered mode of high-speed transport.. it is the ignorance from someone who doesn't know, conveying his false advise/knowledge onto people who will believe him...all the morons out there who think that if they find it on the internet, or in a magizine it must be gospel... wonder how many MORE Sr20 swaps were inspired by his article... too bad they are all slower... than my N/A "Ka truck motor"... or whatever.

If the article was about a west african albino monkey mating with a south african gorilla I would be like who cares, I know nothing about it, but i guess that is cool.... unbeknownst (sp) to me, it didn't or couldn't happen..

His credibility is down the tubes, superstreet is a few notchs back from the tabloids at this point.


Tenzo... you had some good points, what about mine, do you see were we, or atleast where I am coming from?

Ricky Chu is full of shit. He doesnt know shit about real racing or real race cars. The KA is a fine motor and theres nothing wrong with racing it. I race my STOCK ka and it handles a racing environment just fine (constant high rpms, constant banging against the redline, high engine temperatures, etc.).

not every automotive enthusiast magazine has to be full of facts and technical stuff.

Perhaps, but the articles of a magazine represent the opinions and viewpoints of the magazine staff.

As far as super street goes, I really havent noticed much super street bashing outside of this thread. I HAVE noticed, however, that this article proves that super street is full of shit. If they did not want him to be taken seriously, then they would have made it apparent. This article is in very bad taste. :thumbsdow

BTW, I do not subscribe to super street. The only auto magazines i get are grassroots motorsports and Road & Track. I occaisionally pick up SCC because I have found their writers to be very knowledgeable about handling mechanics and performance tech.

BTW, I do not subscribe to super street
subscribe.. what a waste of money lol. first issue i bought was about a week ago. the only reason i got it was because they had a 180sx and a silvia s15 on the front and they did look pretty cool.

is super street an ad for modded 240's? it seems you guys talk a lot about it and there seems to be tons of 240's in it.

i understand you dayna240sx, and you also had good points. it usually doens't bother me, but it's just that some people go out of their way to talk smack about this magazine. i understand that you dont like it, and i didn't post to MAKE you like it or anything. it seems like a lot of people just bash on super street because it seems like the "un-ricer" thing to do. eh watever. im just glad most of you guys didn't flame me for expressing my opinions, as i've seen done before....i have a newfound respect for some of you now

^ We flame superstreet because they have insulted us, not because we're looking for a helpless ricer target to flame. (btw i realize the irony in that this post itself is flame :wink: )

hes just a little bitch if hes doing that i bet he was out pimping his wanta be s15 trying to get some 12 year old girls (only ones that he can get) and some real 240 lover rolled up next to him in a KA-T with busted ass brown primer rust and a missing fender and owned him like the punk he is and that guy only spendt total of 1500 bux less the the lights are chus s14.5 thats what we should call it the s14.5 haha

i got really worked up when i read the whole thing like 2 weeks ago. however, i never decided to post it up on the forums becsaue i figured that its useless info and would cause alot of flaming. but anyhow, his S14 barely puts down 250 hp at the wheels. and when they had a turbo 240 showdown like 2 years ago, the white 97 KA-T made more power then his precious SR, even after he cranked up the boost.

if you hate chu so much then dont buy superstreet and dont add to all the hits on his website. the more you fuel his ego and his wallet the more money he has to spend on making his rice car look faster.

He's and idiot...who cares...this is just more publicity...

- the ;ast issue had top fuels hondas in it.


ricky chu is @$$hole with money and can afford a sr swap and is just goin with the crowd. He is a jdm ricers in a way.

man im starting to feel like a ricky chu groupie, but i'm not....trust me :lol: hahha. but that last post by exhaust_note kinda got me laughing. im sure ricky chu wasn't following the crowd since he has owned his car for quite some time now, and he had the SR for quite some time as well.

I think I may write a letter. See if they publish it just for shits. Do you guys think it would be cool if I sent them a link to this thread? Then they will realize i'm not just one jealous kid who hates ricky chu.

By all means, go ahead.

thats me on the left...and ricky mcnuttsack on the rightWhy the hell you quoting what I said man... Do you see me quoting you? :/

OKay, first off, I admit I do not own a 240sx, so please do not hate on me. I have not read super street, nor do I for the very reasons we are all pissed off in this forum. It is mostly smack and very little truth. Ricky Chu's comments are indeed misleading, and I completly see why is pissed everyone off. Hell, I don't own a 240sx and it upsets me. Smack talk has a place in a magazine like Star or Globe, not a so-called "car magazine." I know a little about the 240sx, enough to know that the ka24de is buy no means a bad engine. Chu bashing on it just serves to mislead people new to the hobby who are looking for honest info, and that makes his comments all the more wrong. The ka24de is a very good motor. A turbo kit and some mods, and it's bad as hell. Of the people I have know with modded 240sx's, the one who had the turbo'd and modded ka blew the doors off the sr20det. Even in SCC, when they put an sr in there "project silvia," After lots of mods, a new turbo, etc, it was still in the low 13's. At least SCC was somewhat honest, they presented 4 ways to turbo a 240sx, and option number 1 was the turbo the ka24de. So what if it was organially a truck motor. It has more displacement, and I have seen plenty of built-up ka24de's faster than built sr20dets. Plus, I know there are a few parts on the sr20det that are "from japan only" when they need replacing. For Ricky Chu to bash on a perfectly good motor like he does just shows how ignorent and stupid he is being. The sad thing is, some not in the know with the 240sx people might actually read it and belive him. For the record, if I ever get a 240sx, I plan to turbo the ka24de, not put in a sr20det. To me, it's about Performance over show with a motor.

while i totally agree with everything you said, i just have to pick at one point. the SR20DET is by NO MEANS "just for show", as you implied. it is a very competent motor, and while it may cost more to install/upgrade then a KA24, it can still very easily get up there in the HP numbers and down there in the 1/4 times. it's an all around competent engine and i HATE how it's becoming so that people assume that if you put an SR in your car, you must be for "show". i'm putting an SR in my car, but if you think i'm for show, then you'd better think twice. :iceslolan

When did you get a 240sx?

Everything you guys & (Girl) have said are very valid points... Who is Ricky Chu to "Dictate" what is good, and what isn't... He has never owned a Turbo 240sx(Ka24de)... So therefore he cannot comment on the engines potential. He has chosen the route that alot of 240sx tuners have chosen, and thats the Sr20deT... This thread was merely to point out that Ricky Chu however a 240sx tuner (in his own GAY!:gay: way) Is a complete moron... I think this issue that he wrote was to merely piss off the people who told him that he is nothing but a SHOW CAR BTICH :comprage1 "Forrest Gump">> Thats all I got to say about that.

while i totally agree with everything you said, i just have to pick at one point. the SR20DET is by NO MEANS "just for show", as you implied. it is a very competent motor, and while it may cost more to install/upgrade then a KA24, it can still very easily get up there in the HP numbers and down there in the 1/4 times. it's an all around competent engine and i HATE how it's becoming so that people assume that if you put an SR in your car, you must be for "show". i'm putting an SR in my car, but if you think i'm for show, then you'd better think twice. :iceslolan

Sorry, I didn't mean it to sound as if a sr20det is only for show. Buy no means is that true. I realize you can get good power from one. I was merely trying a convay a point that Ricky Chu's bashing of the ka24de is unfounded. The ka24de can smoke if it's turbo'd and built, and I was only trying to convay how wrong I felt the view of the "ka" being a bad motor was. I think the view of the sr20det being only for show is similar to how in the honda forum, some people view that a b-series swap is only for show and trend followers. Again, untrue. The sr20det is not a bad motor, but for Ricky Chu to bash theka24de like he did is ignorant and dumb, as we all know that the ka motor can kick ass when built.
