You're kidding me, right?

I don't care what they put on a civic to make it look good, it's still a &nbsp;civic. &nbsp;We all know that 240's are the best, but no honda can ever do the job right.

####! &nbsp;I saw an Integra the other day driving around with that same conversion. I did a double take, then almost puked when i noticed it was an integra.

I can't wait to see one of these at a show. &nbsp;I'll put it out of its misery and just jump on the hood till I hit the valve covers.

See. &nbsp;I always new they wanted to have NICE imports... like ours. &nbsp;I didn't know they WANTED ours.
I was riding with a friend... and we saw a car. &nbsp;I swore it was an 240. &nbsp;My friend with an Integra said, &quot;yeah, it's a 240.&quot; &nbsp;He knows all generation integras and EVERYTHING about them... and it was an Integra. &nbsp;We were speachless. &nbsp;This makes me scratch my head. &nbsp;Did he have this kit?

That was disgusting and unfair. It does any Nissan body part injustice to ride on a [bleeping] honda engine. (Unless it's an S2000 or an NSX, but that's another story) ANYWAY these idiots need to put this out of production!

There is a integ around the NJ/NY shows &nbsp;with a S15 front and rear on his car. &nbsp;It doesnt beong on a honda.

09-04-2001, 12:23 AM
If I ever saw this guys car, I'd spit on the rear end of it (the front still came from a Silvia, so I'd leave that clean) but I'd spit on that rear end of it, ew, ew, ew, ew. My feelings are hurt. Why didn't they convert it to an S2000 or a Prelude or something, dont' they know that we're mostly Anti-Honda? As a matter of fact, if you guys ever make a sticker make one that has big script: Zilvia.net and then underneath it have little letters that say &quot;anti-honda&quot;. I'd like that. Stupid little... Hmph!

So a front wheel drive 240 eh?
Neato!

Those guys should be lined up and shot.

09-04-2001, 08:27 AM
Hey why are all you guys hating on the Civic conversion? Just the S14 B headlights add 160 HP to the front wheels!!!! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!!!!!!!

They just want to be like us. SR20DET &amp; S14 Face and all. To bad they dont understand that even when they dump all that money into their car that it is still a FWD. Some people have no clue.

That's complete b.s. &nbsp;It must be easier for the honda boys to find silvia conversion kits than it is for my 95 240.

Jeff240sx
09-04-2001, 09:23 AM
Yeah, I was wondering on that one. &nbsp;If it came from a silvia, it should be a s14a conversion, right? &nbsp;Or was it created just for Honda cars... as far as bolt patterns?

Hey, don't you realize that since it now looks like an s14, it MUST be rwd! Seriously though, I for one am quite honored that the Honda croud wants their cars to look like Nissans. Plagerism is the highest form of flattery. In two days time, when the auction ends, yer talking some $1300 flattery from eBay. I find that quite impressive. Dunno why they dont just get the real deal. Though they just might be quicker (from the factory), no Honda can match the feel of a 240.

09-04-2001, 12:17 PM
i hate stickers, but i really want that &quot;calvin pissin on a honda symbol&quot; sticker. &nbsp;

I dunno if i can call it flattery...
i luv the S14s... i dun necessarily like hondas....

09-04-2001, 03:05 PM
IS there a kit like that for the 95-96 240sxs???

09-04-2001, 04:08 PM
so i guess they dont love their cars as much as they say :biggrin: losers wtf are they doing stealing our CAR! ugh too bad the weight ratio is like 70/30 :biggrin:

Wow, you all take this so seriously. Any 240sx enthusiast will be able to tell the difference. It's merely a Honda trying to improve itself. ####, if a Honda owner wants to make his car look like mine, go for it. Anybody who knows enough to care will realize &quot;yah, he's goin' to get some groceries&quot; <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'>

09-04-2001, 07:24 PM
hmmm.... &nbsp;maybe I'm gonna mold an integra front end to my car.....
then I can maybe get a honda to race me. &nbsp;
I wonder if the guys (and girls) buying this kit are more willing to race?

btw, wouldn't this honda look great with those ronal bear wheels from a few years ago?

I e-mailed the idiot selling it and told him he was a moron for selling garbage like that. I ragged on him so bad, I still havent gotten a response though.

Good call PSI. &nbsp;He is a moron. &nbsp;And had I thought about it, I would have too. &nbsp;I'll go do that when I am done posting <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

doods, chill out a bit. No need to get all bent out of shape just 'cause a Honda boy wants to look like us. We all know he can't pull it off <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'> As I said before, we should be proud the masses that usually consider their Honda hardware so superior would be trying to imitate us. They are envious, why get all mad about that?

I'm just not so hot that the cars that are now ricey have a Nissan part proudly displayed on the rice-moblie.
Not only that... they have taken the 3 step method of bieng like us.
1- Buy a Civic (cuz they're poor)
2- Talk trash about Nissans (see sidebar above)
3- Buy Nissan clip (to not look poor)

They could do this in one simple step. &nbsp;Buy a Nissan. &nbsp;Don't start a rivalry, and have a nice car that doesn't make you look poor.

It pissed me off when I saw my front end on a f*cking civic on the magazine. now they are selling it. If I see one I will piss on it, if I see 2 I will burn them. they should just convert these car to the new prelude front end so that they can look a bit uglier....

09-04-2001, 10:41 PM
#### here in san francisco theres a integra strip interrior racer/show but he has s15 front which most defenatly sucks i say HONDA STICK WITH HONDA. i don't see any nissans trying become hondas. puK.. and ####
theres alot of SKYLINE CONVERSIONS! fOO NISSAN RULES! cause thats why!

Personally, I'm a bit offended by that crap! &nbsp;I hate civics with a passion, and for some ricer to make his piece look like my car, is even worse! &nbsp;Honda should definately stick to honda. &nbsp;

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. &nbsp;

09-07-2001, 10:59 PM
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. &nbsp;not a fair comparison. &nbsp;trade it straight up for an equal price honda? &nbsp;no. &nbsp;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.

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

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? &nbsp;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.
