fairlady z

[richard head]

pulled up next to a guy with a fairlady z today and asked him wtf a fairlady z was, he replied that it was a 350 z in japan. i laughed and he took off pretty hard so i punched it and smiled at him as i showed him my taillights, then i got out of it and he was out of it too now and i pulled into the right turn lane and motioned for him to follow. he didn't want to so i just took off cuz he didn't wanna play.

idk if its my car's unwashed, semi-busted appearance or what but nobody wants to play anymore and now that i reworked my lid/hose setup it runs harder than ever. anybody down in austin wanna run a lid/cutout/tune t/a? :P

Its like those kids that rebadge their 3000GTs as "GTO's" and G35s as "Skylines" lol. Unless its right hand drive... they need to stop lol.

[richard head]

i mean it would be in japanese characters if there was even such a badge over there, right? so i says to him, bitch, you know i'd track you down and snuff out your life like a bad smellin candle, right? .lol right.? lmfao

No, it's in English.

Very common to put badges on japanese cars with the name it has in Japan. This trend came with "JDM" which MOST people don't understand.


JDM styling is very clean, very unflashy, very simple, yet very functional.


Decent example here. Although I feel the car would look cleaner with a white hood.

what exactly is a Fairlady Z?

[4tun8]

350z

[emoFTW]

^^^ just the japanese name for 300zx-350z

what exactly is a Fairlady Z?

Its the name for their Z Cars. 240Z, 260Z, 280Z, 280ZX, 300ZX, 350Z from oldest to newest. Pretty much, as the displacement of the engines go up... the number goes up. And now that they're going to be going to that new 3.7L engine that you see in the G37s, ull see a 370Z.

Oh I understand that verrrrrry well. Exterior wise, its the difference between a real, legit tuner... and a trendy ricer. But clean is clean... no matter if its all JDM stuff or if its a mix of a bunch of different companies.

[blackhawk01]

thanks for clearing that up

I agree, but the JDM "style" is more what I was talking about. I wasn't saying you had to have Spoon everything =p

I agree. I hate the new STi, its a hatch. Always been a fan of the EVOs tho.. expecially the newer ones. Hell they even stepped it up a notch an gave the Ralli Art a turbo and AWD to complete directly with the WRX lol.

[4tun8]

strangely enough, this, with red rims instead of white, could be the exact car my buddy's SS (half sec slower than my ws6 in the 1/4 for some reason) cleaned up on the street. kid rolls around georgetown in it and i wave every time i see him, trying to get him to run me - which he doesn't, because he saw me school that SS that pulled so many buslengths on him a few months ago lol.

Yea atleast its clean looking.
I dont absolutly hate imports, I like some of them if they are built right.
Hell I got a POS 240sx just recently and im going to be doing a silvia conversion to it pretty soon.
It will be nice looking and have decent power.
I just hate all the sound systems, neons/leds, body kits, spoilers and all that useless stuff.
