Midnight & stamps... much love to both of you homies... but seriously???

What happened to posting mod lists, dyno numbers etc? Has there been a sharp decline in pride of ownership since I last stopped by???

Both very nice looking machines... Not voting till I know something more about each.

P.S. Midnight, I have a polished OEM upper intake off my old 180SX collecting dust with good condish rail still attached. Yours free + shipment cost.

Sorry I do not have dyno tuned. The car has been street tuned. If i had to guess my power i'm probably around 450hp right now. I hope to get numbers soon.

The interior of the car is all stock looking retaining all stock panels with the exception of the radio and AC have been completely removed and Harnesses have been installed in place of the automatic seat belt system.

Thank all of you for voting. Good luck to Midnight. You have a very sweet looking car man.

 

Now we got us a competition. Those are some serious lists.

Good luck to both of you.

 

Oh baby

 

I may not be around much but I'm gonna make up for the time I've been gone.

 

Everyone and anyone can get in on this! Newbies and OGs alike. With more than 130 views we should have as many votes. Some day it may be your ride up for votes and you'd sure as sugar would like to see people supporting you!

Come on people, vote and/or discuss. Let's get lively up in heeah!

 

In my simple mind, this was one of the closest yet. Both great cars! Both very nicely set up with a lot of attention to detail and extras a lot of people tend to overlook. Props to both~

Midnight/Stamps- Thanks for posting additional info about your cars... actually made it harder to choose; but that's EXACTLY what it should be all about... any Joe can take a look at 3 pics of each car and decide which one they find more pleasing visually... However, my opinion is that the devil is in the details; and there is enough pride of ownership in each of this month's entries to warrant a bit more scrutiny.

Mike

 

midnight got my vote, even tho an rb swap is kick ass, still gotta love that s15 front conversion. has any one ever custom fabbed s15 tail lights on an s13?? that would be the shit!! in my vision lol try to picture it

 

It's been done. It's horrible lol.

**Mikester rests his case**

 

^^ haha dont get me wrong, i appreciate all work they put in under the hood as well as suspension. the s15 conversion just get me every time, im a sucker for em u could say haha

 

"There's two types of people..."

And that's not always a bad thing. This is all about preferences and how we vote will usually vary from person to person. Mike and hi (Wut?), thank you both for chiming in and giving your two cents. I know neither one was saying how the voting should work.

So, clearly we're getting off on the right foot and hopefully it'll continue so.

 

Many people have their preferences on looks to a car. I love the Semi-sleeper look. My goal with this car was to appear mostly stock. Midnight you have one beautiful car. I have never been liked SR all that much. And hating them more now that i'm in CA. It seems like everyone in this area has problems or the swap was done crappy.

The next step for my car is storage for about a year since i'm deploying in july.

 

Much appreciated. I'm sure your going around mushroom stamping everyone with your RB though ;-) and yes dreaded CA. I payed a nice fee to smog my car. I won't be doing it again next time smog comes around lol. My original plan if I was going s13.5 was to make it look factory however my front bumper will not allow that. I get a LOT more attention now from the conversion. Even with my shit paint I've got high end sports car owners pacing me wanting to do freeway runs. On the other end police pay a lot more attention too.

Luckily I dont have to worry about smog. The car is registered in GA. But I dont need too much attention being drawn to the car. Even when i go to meets and car shows I can't walk around and see the other cars because people wanna see my car. I imagine its the same way for you.

 

Pretty much. Everyone thinks s15 until I park then the Honda guys get super wet

lol. Yeah I love how every meet I go to there are many people that dont even know that the RB20 or RB25 exist.

 

LOL

Hi- All in good fun~

I personally LOVE my SR, but only because I like having AC and knowing how fast I'm going lol..,. Sleeper look is nice- the outside of my car looks pretty tore up (for now), and the exhaust is VERY quiet (barely louder than stock)... Most of the time, you can't even hear my car idling at the drag strip over all the others in line. I get underestimate more often than not... and when the police pull me over just to 'fuck with me' for no reason other than the stigma associated with 240's, they usually hand my ID & registration right back and tell me to have a nice day when they realize they pulled over a 42yr old Air Force SMSgt expecting the usual 20-something year old kid lmfao!

I admit, stamps' external appearance is very deceptive, which is AWESOME for suckering fools into making bigger fools of them haha! and Midnight, your S15 swap looks really nice- I bet nobody even notices the 'flaws' like you do being the guy who put all the hard work into it~

Awesome entries!

KATO- All good sir! Ain't been here in a while myself

 

lol there are deff two types of guys in this world, im standing on a fence inbetween both! hahaha. i bet stamps puts the hurt on ALOT of cars out there, lol stamp whats the fastest car you've beat? if you dont mind me asking.

Ive noticed alot of service men on this forum, lots of respect for what you guys do for our country. beers on me if any of you are ever in central cali :beer2:

 

I actually haven't raced a whole lot of cars since i've built the car. My car rarely comes out of the garage unless i'm tuning or just out for a cruise. Since i got rid of the PowerFC and got the AEM standalone I haven't raced anyone. I'm not a big fan of playing on the street.

Thank you for your support of the military. I'm hoping once i get back from deployment next year I can create a meet that is dedicated to the military.

 

Weird- multi-quote isn't working...

Hi- what part of central Cali? I'm from Hanford.

Stamps- clued into 'S-tech manifold' immediately- Scott does great work! Most what I have was originally tuned by Yoshioka at Odotec & Stark handled all my suspension needs. And my GT-R spent it's share of time @ Speed Factory still great friends with Mark Morioka & I have all my car stuff willed to my super-great bud Skrappy in the event of my untimely demise. Many a Sunday night tearing up 58 in Mizugama.
What time frame were you there? You on ZY too? Wonder if we know each other from chillin at Lawson?

 

I was in Okinawa from december 05- december 07. S-tech is no longer in buisiness now. Scott inherited a family buisiness and does that now.

 

you sir are far more responsable than i would be with a 400hp sleeper
Aem standalones are awesome! thats what i learned to tune with at Wyotech haha, any other wyotech grads out there?

 

Mikster- no way haha i have a aunt in hanford, you may have heard of a little town called parlier? well its about 15 miles north west of hanford
