a honda 240sx ?!? - Page 2 - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

*Grant* · 09-07-2001, 11:22 AM

guys, just chill out, they can do whatever they want, I used to be a honda boy and I probably still am. Honda's arent bad cars, its the people that give them a bad image.
Someday I might just give up my car for a 97-01 Honda Prelude, no offense.

konkman · 09-07-2001, 12:48 PM

I think these honda boy's are just jealous of what we have.

That or maybe they're trying to capture the styling and power of the Silvia. While killing everything Silvia stands for, with their vortec sewing machine engines, wanna be flare, and need we all forget...

...FRONT WHEEL DRIVE!!!

Hey honda boys, why don't you take that engine and do something useful with it. Like sewing me up some pants!

thats not cool konkman, esp referring to hondas in general, shure there a lot of people screwing it up, but the cars arent bad, Preludes and accords are respectable cars, and regardless if they're fwd or not, They are faster than 240sx's out of the factory. Not to be rude or offensive to all your nissan owners out here, (I own one too), but I dont like to see so much hate against hondas. Its the #### people who fvck the image, but doesnt mean have to hate the cars. You guys are starting to sound like the gang of white trash kids with their lifted trucks, mustangs and camaros that used to harass me everyday back in high school.

i BET u half the ricers who bid on it didnt even know wtf a s-14 is they were prolly thinking it was a type of kit or some shiat cuz the guy fails to mention that the front end is from a NISSAN!!!!!

09-07-2001, 11:15 PM

How many of you guys would take an even trade for an S2000 with your Silvia? (And Preludes aren't pieces of crap. They're 200HP factory cars. And those of us who live in a winter climate or a rainy climate know what a pain in the ass a RWD can be sometimes.) Don't get me wrong, I'm an all-Silvia girl, but still... I think we're too harsh. They should still get that product of the market, it's just not right.

misnomer · 09-08-2001, 12:36 AM

Grant: That may have been a little harsh, but the trash talking IS reminiscent of what we'd hear from the Honda boys. Rise above it ladies and gentlemen, rise above it <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

sure i'd trade my car for an s2000, but then i'd sell that, buy my car back, and have enough money left over for a down payment on a house.  not a fair comparison.  trade it straight up for an equal price honda?  no.  I've got $16K CDN in my car, and I could get a 106hp 1996 Civic hatchback for that much.

gt7152b · 09-08-2001, 01:18 PM

No way I would trade a Silvia for an S2000. I would trade my 240SX for one, but just for the increased value. I would be selling it ASAP, too.

09-08-2001, 05:25 PM

Ok, I meant 240s, not Silvias. Once I get my hands on an SR20DET, there's no chance I'm switching to any Honda product, whatever it may be!

SKRacing · 09-09-2001, 01:55 PM

Did anybody take the time to really look at the picture good? If you look really closely the front end has the nissan flares , but the back end is still straight as a board. If some clown wants to do this then more power to them. At least it would be more power if they were truly running a nissan.

*Grant* · 09-14-2001, 02:57 AM

thank you s13grl, Preludes are #### good cars, and sometimes nearly drifting some object and destroying my car is kinda scary.

AmericanBornSilvia · 09-14-2001, 09:42 PM

still though..the prelude is pretty #### heavy..the h22 engine swap is prolly better on some other car (like a hb civic) then again u can just go with a frankenstien motor (ls engine with type r headers) but still heh..the whole thing was that they stuck it on a civic =P
and something about that bothers me

*Grant* · 09-14-2001, 09:46 PM

well the prelude, looks much nicer compared to a civic. Much better built and refined imo

AmericanBornSilvia · 09-14-2001, 09:48 PM

still its pretty heavy...compared to a s13

matic 240sx · 09-15-2001, 05:34 AM

ive seen a red integra with the s15 front end in LA, and looking at it from the front comming at me at about 65 mph i caught it was a teg... wanna know what to look for?  look at the bottom of the windsheild to the top of the roof... its nasty... thats why i hate hondas... they all have big windsheild and high roon in the front..... 240sx is shorter and has more of a sport look....

Nismo240SX · 09-15-2001, 07:39 PM

oh...my blood is starting to boil. they just didn't make that for a civic did they? if you want you're #### car to look like a 240, see your piece and go buy a 240. ####, ignorance is power behing the Honda plot.
