nocomedown · 07-31-2004, 02:59 PM

edit: holy shit. i was looking on your website and noticed that your 240 used to have the same ugly ass eagle wheels that mine came with. man i hated those things.

I like your 92 180sx its a SE non sunroof!! Your 91 is clean kev but the chassis of the 92 just is the schiznit. plus the rollbar on the 92 is dope I want one of those.

THREAD HIJACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*Grant* · 08-01-2004, 05:42 AM

btw.. that car is no more... (at least not in that form).. It was often mistaken for kevin's 240sx. It was actually an evil twin sister.

**mrmephistopheles** · 08-01-2004, 05:44 AM

yeah, but it has SuperHICAS just like my 180!
thanks for the threadjack, Grant!
ass.

**ThatGuy** · 08-01-2004, 05:44 AM

I vote 240,for now, simply because it's been built as "your car". Once you've had the 180 for a little longer, my vote may change.

BTW Kevin, I'm still jealous of both.

*HaLo* · 08-01-2004, 09:38 AM

They are both very nice... But I will go 180sx just because of the engine and super-kickass!

**West** · 08-02-2004, 12:36 PM

I like them the same, but I voted for the 180sx because the roll bar makes me jelious.

Andrew Bohan · 08-02-2004, 05:35 PM

180's are so played out. so are red fastbacks in general

nismo skyline · 08-02-2004, 08:44 PM

the 240, cuz of the well thought out mods

BadMoJo · 08-03-2004, 01:12 PM

240.... because the steering wheel is on the correct side.

Blues13 · 08-03-2004, 06:04 PM

is it me, or is that just the same car with the steering wheel on the other side?

Steeles · 08-04-2004, 09:15 AM

the 240. cause its got the lip and rims

aznpoopy · 08-04-2004, 12:05 PM

the 180 b/c im a jdm whore.

**mrmephistopheles** · 08-04-2004, 06:34 PM

Well, it's been pretty even so far.. About 3/4 of you guys like the 180 better (which I'm betting is based on 'JDM' factor and 'SR' factor, and the other 1/4 of ya are going for my 240.

For me, I'm torn.
I love different aspects of each car.
I love the 180 for having an SR stock, and having a good suspension and rollbar, along with the other goodies it has.
I love my 240.. 'cause it's my 240, man! That, and it's 5 lug and is way 'cleaner' looking than this car is. Also, how it was in that pic was very nice for me. I miss my GTR wheels, etc.
Not having this 180 be 5 lug already is frustrating.. I see so many great 5 lug wheels..

Hub's have to be cheaper over there.

**mrmephistopheles** · 08-04-2004, 11:12 PM

they are. I saw a set of used front 5 lug hubs for ~220 at Up Garage. Just don't have $$ to blow on superfluous parts right now. (paying for college).

are you gonna bring it back to the states?

**mrmephistopheles** · 08-13-2004, 09:18 AM

what? the 180?
Depends on our financial situation and what we want to do about 6 months before we're due to come back. I might do it and keep it as a track car.

elevator · 08-16-2004, 01:34 AM

Anyone with an ounce of grey matter knows the 180 is better! I'm just puzzled why you don't throw in your wife's Silvia and the Subaru for comparison.

BTW...At least they aint pignosers! Red rocks on a 180!

**mrmephistopheles** · 08-16-2004, 02:04 AM

Ahh I didn't, because I don't consider them 'Mine'. Besides, it was just a comparison of these 2.
I wonder what would happen if I pitted the 180 vs Lisa's Silvia, or maybe my 240 vs the Boobaru.

blu808 · 08-17-2004, 03:48 AM

I vote for me, because i suck.
