some people are stupid.

i say that because of something i have found on ebay. an 87 300zx turbo its in great condition and really nice to look at until i started going through the pics. here is the link, http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Nissa...em190137707577 , the racing pedals he put on the 300zx are not made for ANY nissan. take a look at what brand they are. this kinda thing urks me a bit. when i see people do that kind of stuff its just uuuurrrrrr.

If you started a thread, or wrote a post for everthing stupid you saw someone do to a Z you would have a higher post count than NismoPick.

all Japanese car manufacturers sleep with each other

its just part of doing business over there seeing Mugen on what should be Nismo is a little disturbing but it shouldn't upset you. I mean ever hear of a LS1 swap or JV swap into a 240sx?

i have heard of doing that. not something i would do myself. it didnt really upset me i guess. for some reason i have always hated any honda product with a passion. the only honda i like is the lastic model ones i built. dont ask why cause i dont know, i just do. and when i seen that on a nissan z, well you get the picture, lol.

Seriously?

Try to take the Zen approach, don't waste time hating inanimate objects, Take a ride in a brand new Civic and realize that you are now getting nearly 40mpg in a car that will do that for about 250k miles without any major problems (on average). Honda builds kick *** commuters (personally i'd rather get a new Altima) but some car manufacturers just can't be helped.

yea i know about how well honda can make cars that are reliable, that is great and all, its just not my thing, you know what i mean? i would prefer to have the new altima over a honda as well, but guess that is just opinion. i guess i dont like honda's because everyone and their brother around here in NY has one. where as my z i only know of 3 other people that have one in my county. there are some z32's, maybe 1 350z but ive never seen any of the 240, 260, or 280's around here. but either way you look at it Honda/Mugen parts should not be in a nissan. granted they are decent looking pedals but its the fact that they should be nissan/nismo because of it being a nissan. that almost like taking a dodge and putting ford parts in it. yes im not a fan of fords either but thats because i have had bad luck with any ford i have owned or drove. oh well everyone is entitled to an opinion. and everyone's opinion is different. lol
