good effort mate. Turn it in to a 200 car park and you can all finish early on friday to go drifting before it gets busy!
Very nice. One of my mate is now considering one. He also said an fto and would tune it higher than mine. I tried to explain non turbo hard to tune but he wont listen :rolleyes: . he wants a supercharger for it and hasn't even bought it yet! :eek: . Crazy guy. Ill convinve him in the end. He hasnt heard my dump valve yet.....
just noticed im a flamespitter, i think i must be overfuelling! :eek:

[stoofer]

there's 2 S14a's at our work now since Wallers bought one. more people want them, but with about 100 cars, we have a long way to go...

[Iain200sx]

ah. 100 cars eh? what you want to do is set up a deal with a garage, so your mates all get 10% of 200sx's, say if at least 10 buy them. Garage happy, your happy, nissan happy as spares cost ****ing 5 times as much for nissans! but hey its a start. I aint turned no-one yet. I got one guy close and another considering it.

its all a matter of time....:D

[stoofer]

I think more would buy them if they could get them as cheap as I did ;)

[Iain200sx]

well send them where you got yours! Your picture looks fake with you killing cones, is it a real photo is it? :confused:

[stoofer]

I bought mine private from up north, not sure they'd like my advice :)

and the pic is legit, my car has the scrapes to prove it. more cone killing coming up on July 7th :D

[Iain200sx]

oh sorry on the photo then. Presumably your handbraking then? or you have a camera with a super fast shutter time? Was that at a drifting competion or something? Looks cool anyway :thumbs: :D

[stoofer]

yep it was at the practice before the last drifting compo (I dont usually wear stickers)

I'd lost it at the point I hit the cone, not sure where on the track it was but I smacked a few cones pretty hard (and have the scars to prove it)

full respray is in order... if I get bored of drifting or get so good Im not hitting things ;)

[Iain200sx]

looks cool. drifting is awesome. I remember some guy trying to tell me he went drfting in a nova 1.2! i was like ok leave me alone you freak :wack:

[Cookie]

My office has 2 S14a autos , the other bleongs to the chap i work with doing the same job as me , he had it before he joined.

Our company has a v.good relationship with porshe as we have loads(10+) of them in the car park.

I am always trying to indoctrinate people at work into the Church of Nissan but they, like most of the population, haven't got a f*cking clue :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Some bloke bought a new-ish Celica recently (which impressed a few people) but wisely did his homework and decided not to state any of the usual 'my car's faster than yours' rubbish (to his credit :notworthy ).

Some bloke once told me he'd wipe the floor with me in a V6 V*ctra but he changed his tune the next day 'cos he'd obviously found out down the pub that he was talking b*llocks.

The fact is NO-ONE has any idea at all - except some bird who drove her neighbours H-reg and said it was rather nippy :D :D :D

But one day they will all respect the 200's greatness :notworthy :notworthy :notworthy :notworthy :notworthy

[marty_t3]

I gotta work with a few porsche owners and have a Golf GTi and TT drivers as my bosses....

Out of the 4 of them the only one with the first clue about his car is the 928 S4 owner. Not a hope in hell of converting them to S13 drivers. (Though the 928 owner is keen to have a look round my car)

[mattygti-r]

all i get in my work is oh if its not got a BMW badge then its not worth having.....car park has 150 cars or so....90% are BMW's.

went to the pub the ohter day....lovely S14A sitting outside.....oh wow i went..my boss went..erh? that thing...its a datsun matt...grow up...i was like..er...its shits on ur car mate.....no idea at all

only 1 of my 8 bosses have a clue, bout Nissans (to a degree)... told him i was getting a GTIR....no one knew ...i turned up and they were like er...wht the FCK is that!!!!! (decat burble....mmmmmmmm.......love it)...its stands out and im like this



:D

my boss went out wiht me in it the other day..he was like....its goes dont it...lol....he used to have an integra Type R ...swapped it for a BMW (new 3series)....hten got whooped by a R34 a few weeks back lol....and went...ur Nissan...didnt realise how quick they were.....hes now getting a Z3 M3....2 words...'HOW GAY'

[Dave_S]

Yeah our car park is looking a little like a BMW showroom :(

All 3 of my "boss"'s have BMs.

We've got a Supra TT with nice 19"s and a TVR and a nice old Porsche 911 though :)

good lad in converting the uneducated, dave!! is the boy gonna mod it? :thumbs:

[siranui]

Nissan population in our carpark sadly in decline :(

Prunella posh-chick's boyfriend has sold his, so she doesn't bring that in any more. Now uses a yellow S2000.

My boss (tosser) used to have an S13, but went and bought a shopping trolley. Least he respects the car though... and uses it against me. eg from last team meeting:
'Everyone make sure your DR docs are up to date, in case anything happens to you, we need to be able to pick up the pieces of your projects'
'Especially you Mike, with that car of yours'


Apart from that, no worthy Nissans. However we also currently have:

Yellow Evo VI [Which has recently had a DV fitted. Hope I was the inspiration :) . The owner also fears my car. yay!]

Boxter type S

2 Preludes [one of which is sadly riced, with 'pocket-rocket.org' stickers, tinted windows, tinted lights and Max Power wheeels.]

Couple of 535 beemers

Scimeter (eek! sp!). But he daren't bring it in when it's wet.

A good dozen MR2s, MX5s and MG-Fs.


And on the 'boy racer' front, all sporting typical sad accessories:

3 novas, 2 cavs, 1 golf, 1 sciencio, 1 very body kitted escort, 1 renault clio 'sport'.

Only other major point of contention is another middle-aged Clio sport driver who thinks his car is quicker than mine.
