fl327 Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 Never realized how lucky we are in the US to be able to get these cars for such good deals. Just got back from a whirlwind tour of China and Hong Kong. In Hong Kong, my cousin drives a s13 with every bolt on known to man and a built sr, it is fast as hell and you havent lived life until you've taken a left hand drift sitting on the left hand side of the car! My other cousin has a non turbo version with tomei cams, intake, and exhaust, what a sucker. Its good to know that on the other side of the world, my cousins are devoted Nissan Fans! They took me to go play video games, and they had the real version of the Wangan Midnight video game, intensely realistic handling wise, and of course I picked the Z and beat the game! I told them that I have owned almost every version of the s30 at a different time with various modifications, my latest one being a turbo version. They nearly wet themselves screaming at me, they couldnt believe it. I told them I wanted to do an s13 turbo next resembling their cars, and they screamed at me NO!!! They told all of their friends about their cousin that has the z cars, and I was answering non stop questions about the z car. They told me that even though a s13 does handle better and rides better, they would own a s30 over one in a heartbeat. So Ive decided to bring my z back to daily driving status with an emphasis on pure function over max hp, my hp goals are way lower than they were since I take more pleasure in owning and driving a z. I really just want to put tons of miles on my z from driving it, and be able to go to the track for lightweight drifing practice sessions. I am in the process of getting a good 1991 s13 DOHC KA24de with jdm spec kyb shocks, rsr lowering springs, s14vlsd, nardi steering wheel, a relatively straight body and gets like 30mpg it runs super good. The engine swap into that wont be for another year, im going to focus my attention towards work and friends. Just thought I would share some of my reasons for keeping my s30 alive and kicking.
