... you thought wrong. Check out the "Crazy" threads in the Pictures forum.

Just to satiate your unfounded hunger, here's a pic of my car:

And another, showing off the front:

Mad boro.

you're gonna paint it tho right?

and when you say "240 that has been converted into a silvia"

What chassis 240 do you mean and what chassis silvia do you mean?

GRiDRaceTech · 01-05-2005, 04:52 PM

Boro= sleeper.

I eat Porsches on the downhill. (A bit of egocentrism there...)

I'll repaint it the stock red, which I always forget the name of.

So true

Mines rusty and denty. Plus i'm running a recirc valve, so she's quiet.

sdtouge · 01-05-2005, 06:22 PM

grid- thats at california speedway, are you going to dd21 on the 15th?

simplyxlost · 01-06-2005, 10:49 PM

boro is not = sleeper anymore. every other 240sx with beat up body has soemthing under the hood at least. boro is almost the new trend of telling people you got something in store. but still, silvia conversions none the less are awesome. if i had a 240, i'd do the same thing.

dancinghobo · 01-06-2005, 11:28 PM

here mine , it also needs paint.

Parry · 01-06-2005, 11:53 PM

Steve, finish the deal already you gotta respray the whole rig regardless.

G35_DRIFT · 01-06-2005, 11:56 PM

Ive got a great one for you guys, my friend has a sweet black s13, ill snap some pics tomorrow for you guys, s14 seats as well.

C2 Powerhaus · 01-07-2005, 01:41 AM

wow... what suspension is that on? its pretty dang high... still stock?

dancinghobo · 01-07-2005, 08:29 AM

no it has jic sf1 coilovers . i know i know its high but i need it that way for daily driving. if i lower it more ill rip the bumper right off. i also got the wrong tire size, i wish i would of gotten some 55 or 60's .

Ralli///Art GS · 01-07-2005, 09:26 AM

Gridrecetech, what kind of suspension and mods are you running that will allow you to "eat" a porsche on the downhill?

elitedrift · 01-07-2005, 10:07 AM

R0llin_0n_15s · 01-07-2005, 03:17 PM

nice paint scheme. the videos are good too

GRiDRaceTech · 01-07-2005, 06:09 PM

Sdtouge: No, it's full. I was very seriously considering going. I might go to DD22 if I can, DD23 definitely.

Ralliart: Notice how I said nothing about what model Porsche, or what state of tune it's in. My car WILL outgrip a 964 C4, 944, 914, or 924... provided they are stock. Why don't you go put yellow hoses in your engine bay and leave analysis to grownups?

Ralli///Art GS · 01-08-2005, 05:10 PM

lol, I just asked what kind of suspension you have. You are not to observent. If you were, you'd notice my motor is matte black, and the only yellow things under the bonnet are plug wires and intake couplers. I'd be more confident in the abilities of a 944 in stock trim over that 240 of yours.

its kinda hard to get in. just check the site every week or so. i sold my moms car for her and have been riding my bike evrywhere to save money up. instead of buying more suspension i am going to do ALOT of drift days and track days.

i just picked up coilovers 2 days ago, they are so much better. the tanabe pro-ss type 2. very stiff. now i just gotta get that darn 2 way in in time for dd21 and i will be set

GRiDRaceTech · 01-08-2005, 06:23 PM

My suspension mods are as follows: KTS coilovers, Powertrix tension rods, Powertrix subframe spacers. Certainly more than H&R springs and AGXs. Besides, I run real man's tires, not sissy ES100s.

You'd be more confident because why?

Real man's tires? wtf lol. Didn't know manlyness was based on tire type. So do tell, what kind of tires make you a man? That's certainly a well sorted car then. Spacers, some adjustable links, and some coilovers. You have me beat (

)

I'd be more confident because of the 50/50 weight distribution, superior balance, 200+hp in turbo trim, 16x7 & 16x8" rubbers, 4 pot brakes, and a skidpad figure of .90 back in 1986.

Parry · 01-08-2005, 07:09 PM

yea but you're rocking the world of vaccuum with that JDM lump.

Vaccuum sucks, huh?

Awww, look guys, he can regurgitate facts!

That doesn't mean you know jack squat about my car, though.

Mooboy · 01-09-2005, 03:10 AM

Then I crashed.
Here is the current front:

You asked me why i'd be more confident no? So I told you. You never told me what real mans tires are.. And no I don't know anything about your car. I know it's ratty looking and that's about it.
