Heh so he did mean DRFT bumper. Yes, people do sell shitty kits out there by the names of "Drifter STYLE", but yeah, you people fucking assume too much. Almost every noob that posts here is attacked and accused as being a "ricer" and then you complain about how they ruin and waste your fucking cars by converting them into show-cars or drifting them into trees or how about jumping the "bandwagon", and bullshit like that. Leave them alone, it's their money. Stop hating, just cuz you can't afford anything. Last time I remembered, cars were sold to the PUBLIC, not who you think fucking deserves it. I've seen plenty of old dudes and chicks who probably didn't know the potential of the 240sx they were driving but at least the car has found some love.

NEXGEN, these guys probably didn't even know about the DRFT kit thats out, so they assumed something else. Just make sure you have money for an engine rebuild should the unthinkable happen, or put money into a reliable, low-mileage engine, whichever chassis it might have come out. Remember people, just because a car is newer, doesn't necessarily mean it is better. It's all about how well the car was taken care of during its life. Maybe a few technological improvements like VVT here and there, but not much.

BTW I think the 240sx looks damn good stock (all generations), but there's nothing wrong with trying to make it look better (in the owner's eyes). Those hardcore drifters and draggers usually keep the stock look cuz they couldn't care less about their car's appearance as long as it eats everything up on and including the road. Then there's people who don't feel like spending the time or money on keeping their car running the 1/4 or twisties. There's your no-go, all show crowd. And of course there's the people in between who want a little of both worlds. A decent system, some power to embarrass the richboy racers... pretty much daily driving Cars come in all flavors. Deal with it.

Ahem, now back on topic... why don't you try KA-T? You can get decent, reliable power on relatively low boost and save some money. Check out all your options man.

Tnx for calling me out soyo! I still think that what I said has solid ground!

Anyways, decide on what the heck you want, no one can tell you what is right for you. My car is a daily driver that doesn’t stand out at all. If you want a nice car, hell do all of the obvious thing, TV’s, mad sounds, nice rims…etc.


Here is what I think, make up your mind, and if you have enough recourses then everything is possible!!

Ps: KA-T$, sure, it some what less played out.

yea i am sort of making up my mind but when there are LOTS of options and u love them all ... wat r u gunna do? .... i just figured i would get some opinions.

i see ur turbo KA idea and i was talking to my friend at teaworks and hes got a turbo KA and hes pulling like 400 out of it with stock internals ...

as with the s13 redtop ... its already P&P and has a 2.2 stroke. the blacktop just has n aftermarket ecu. and the s15 for sale ... well the front clip has the VVT. i am thinking about getting that one. although i have been reading up on dropping a VG30DETT into a 240sx :-p ... and then there is a RB26DETT but ... too much of a conversion for that engine.

just basicly ... i have tons of options and im looking at getting something that i am am not going to go overboard on because i tend to do that :-\ ... its a disease.

so im going with 1991 Nissan 300zx w/ JDM 1996 VG30DETT redtop. its a powerful engine ... also leaves me plenty of cash to deck the engine out. kuz that right there w/ the engine will cost ..... roughly 4800 and i have about 7. so the rest of that can just let me .... make sure the engine runs perfectly well.

thnx for the advice guys ... also if u happen to live in or around houston ... i have lots of engines for sale .... everything from a B18c5 to an RB26DeTT. (gotta make more money some how :-p) ... thnx n e ways. oh and if u still want the pics i'll pop them up if u got a place to upload them :-p

so how do you know he didn't just see all of us saying "did you mean DRFT bumper? cause 'drifter' bumpers are gay!" and changed his wording so that he didn't look bad? who's assuming now? neither of us can be sure because neither of us are him, so just cut that argument out.

oh, and newsflash asshole, he ASKED for my opinion so i GAVE it to him. last time i checked, i was living in a FREE part of the world, so i'm allowed to post whatever the fuck i want. if i don't want him to do the mods he's listed, then i'll say so without hesitation because he asked for my opinion! if he didn't want to hear my opinion, then he should've just gone and built the damn car instead of posting this useless thread.

i know it's his money, and i know that he should do what he wants to his car, but he did ask for my opinion. i have no doubts about the guys intentions, but look at the mods he's posted! EVERYthing he posted is a popular trend in 240SX-dom. S15 conversion, SR20DET, 180SX Kouki lights...all of them are popular and all of them are worshipped by ricers who have absolutely no idea what they are, but know they're popular. putting all of these mods onto an S14 just helps to prove that...you can't honestly tell me that Kouki lights on an S14 would look good. with the shape of it's trunk, there's no way. i've seen S14 tail-lights on a 180SX, which looked good, but this has no chance of looking any sort of decent. by the sounds of his original post, he was merely including them because it was a popular mod and he wanted to sound big for wanting them.

but this thread is getting ever more pointless with every word i type.

CLOSED!
