unfortunately no 🙂

Somebody had asked whether an infiniti counts and I'm kind of on the fence on that one. What do the NFBs think? I'm thinking that if you were a true nissan fanboi you'd not have bought an infiniti but at the same time infiniti is what a NFB aspires to eventually as well. Ah, the dilemna!

Tough one. The only Infiniti NFBs seem to like is the G35.

Yeah, and the G35 is a worthy car. Obviously if somebody came to me with an infiniti SUV I'd show them the door 😀
is fanbois french for something?

begone! You have shed your nissan skin with the recent release of your stanza. Out of my site!
 
Don't have the picture, or the car yet, but one day, one of these day, .... GTR V-Spec baby....then I'll be the president, the chairman, and the treasurer of the Nissan Fanbois club.

It's nice, but it's not a 350Z.

350... droooooool.


anyhow--- i agree, but i still think that as long as an infinity owner is still a fan of the nissans'... they should still count as a Fanboi.
 
1998 maxima SE.

maybe do some cheap mods. remove the hamburger logo from the back. an intake. possibly a fsb in the future. slightly lowered springs. larger rims?

it is my parents car... haha. realistically, probably just burger removed (free) and intake (free if its just a hacked ghetto cai 😀)
 
1997 Nissan 240SX w/ only 20,000 miles.

Might have to sell it though. We're expecting twins and can use something with a little more of a back seat!

auto or manual? where are you located?
 
Oh hey, this is great, a Nissan for sale thread. 😀

'91 300ZX Twin Turbo, Red, Automatic, 150k miles - located in Ft. Lauderdale - $6800

:beer:
 
the new SE-R's are nice.. but I think Nissan should have done a LOT more with it. With cars like SRT4, the SE-R just can't compete.

But the 91-94 Classic SE-R was ahead of its time. One of the original pocket rockets.

That said, your car is probably faster 🙂

Performance wise the se-r/specv simply can't hold a candle to the srt4, no doubt, but I'd still rather use my own money to buy a spec v before an srt4. I have not driven an srt4, but apart from the fact that I'd never be able to make the sell to mrskoorb to "buy a neon", I don't consider it a stretch at all to say that the nissan will have far and away better quality than a turboed riceboy dodge. Plus the sentra does look better, and it's a few thousand cheaper. the SRT4 is a powerful machine tho!
 
I've driven the SRT-4 a few months ago and sat in a specV a long time ago at a carshow (2001?), and I don't recall either one being head and shoulders above the other in terms of interior quality. My brother owns a Neon, and it's spartan, but really more than adequate. As far as mechanical issues, well based on my brother's '00 neon, and his girlfriend's 02 which has been perfect, I don't see that as being a major problem.

Sorry if this doesn't qualify me for Nissan Fanboism, but I'd pick an SRT-4 over a SpecV anyday of week. And the new se-r look for '04 is crap, srt over that too.

Nissan had a great opportunity to really revive the SE-R and blow the doors off the competition, but the B15 just isn't like the good ol' days of the B13.

/back to the fanboi-ness!

I still love my 92 SE-R!!

skoorb, i completely agree with you. Not to mention that you can pick up a specV for 17,500... you'll be paying at least 20,000-21,000 for the SRT-4 from what i've seen. With the extra 3k you'd save, you might be able to pick up a turbo (although, i think all the ones i've seen so far have been closer to 5k). I still trust nissans' build quality over dodge's any day. I cant wait to see all these srt-4's in the shop over the next 5 years. :evil:


still--- i really wouldnt be surprised if nissan boosts the HP of the se-r in the next few years just to make it a little more of a competitor.

Perhaps, but the SE-R's IMHO handle a lot better than the SRT-4.
