TENDRIL Posted December 18, 2011 Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 it looks good, just like a ratsun should i think fourms are for constructive criticism, and this one for showing people YOUR build, it is how it is because you want it like that!! great car hows the motor!! Quote Link to comment
ComicArtist Posted December 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 Thanks dudes. Just to settle any dispute, the Z is in no way a race car. It may see an occasional autocross, but I'm not expecting any killer times in it. The motor, although stock, runs great. Currently running straight pipes, I'm picking up a stock s13 exhaust this week to cut up and make a boso tip out of it. I'll probably use the resonator too. Also picking up a fender to replace my trashed one sometime this week. Quote Link to comment
The Dat-side Posted December 18, 2011 Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 and make a boso tip out of it. Living this thread. Fuck all these people, your car is too low, your car's wheels have too much neg camber, YOUR car is your car. Do whatever the hell you want! I don't see you taking this too tracks to win races so who gives a fuck. It's not a race car. It's not and econobox POS. so just pick something in between, looks like your doing great do far. Where did the other wheels go? Do they not fit when your that low? 1 Quote Link to comment
ComicArtist Posted December 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 If you're referring to the XXR's, I put them on the Miata. Much better fitment on there than on the Z Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 Form can't follow function when form doesn't function silly You almost have a point here. The principle is that the shape of an object should be primarily based upon its intended function or purpose. See below... lol form, it just a new word for ricey shit, 10 years ago it was it was epic body kitz and rims yo! Now it's a retarde amounts of camber and "offset is everything...." We will look back on this one day and lol Form alone is not a new word for ricey. Form without function, (like a huge rear spoiler that does nothing on the street, insane camber tuck tires, whistles in the exhaust to sound like a BOV, body kits, hood scoops).... now that's ricey.

ZackTheImpaler Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 And by the way I think that car looks fucking cool as hell. I'm personally not a big fan of z's but that one is awesome. Slam it and drive the piss out of it is the Ratsun way, just keep posting pictures on that thing so I've got something to look at. Quote Link to comment
Skib Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 not a big fan of the hellaflush hard parking I like subtle boso shit :cool: and the boso scene in JP is deff interesting. they deff have their own take on this crazy Japanese version of the old American greaser styles and a ton of their own crazy over the top style mixed in. 1 Quote Link to comment

ZackTheImpaler Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 YES!!! That looks extremely right for some reason.. Quote Link to comment
Skib Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 sounds like this place is new to the internet Ratsun has always been and always will be. a forum is merely the convenient communication hub. a single piece of all that is Ratsun. even if the interwebs where completely eradicated there would still be Ratsun.

datzenmike Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 they kicked you off? :lol: what for?? Read title. ^This. If it doesn't have a 350 shoved in it or its not three feet off the ground, they don't tolerate it over there. Their loss. I have a truck which went up. Could never figure why everyone says 'needs lowar!' when they see a car. I now have a car, and having one, I 'get it' now. Cars are for roads, trucks are for everything else. Cars just feel better when lowered, the antithesis of a truck. I draw the line at scraping the pavement though. There's lowered and then there's slammed. Quote Link to comment
ComicArtist Posted December 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 There's lowered and then there's slammed. True that. Some people have difficulty getting it through their head. Quote Link to comment

ComicArtist Posted December 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 Haven't really done anything to the Z to justify taking pictures of it, so I'm just going to leave this pic of Katy Perry here. Because she's beautiful, and I'm planning on marrying her. 2 Quote Link to comment
Alex Datsun Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 She's married already...but home wreckers are nice lol. Are you on adjustables or non adjustables? Quote Link to comment
