I haven't seen this on a Z yet, but avoid the air conditioning mod.

Totally different. usdm 240s came with KA engines. Real jdm silvias did not. Theres a difference between 3 series and M3's. Difference in engine, suspension, etc etc. Hondas I can understand. Please...stop being stupid.
ahhhhhhh, so then Skyline badges on G35s are cool then?

geez, let it go already, i thought the flaming me thing was over. so what if i think people shouldn't advertise their car as something it's not. that's the whole point of having YOUR OWN STYLE! people can do what they want, doesn't mean everyone else has to like it.

now go buy some JDM brake fluid.

a G35 is a skyline so im really failing to see what the relevance of not having the proper name of your car is on your car thats actaully a factory part.

Its all just personal preference & I wouldn't consider it rice.
I still have my RSX, selling it as we speak. It was highly modded, but I always used to make fun of people that put Honda badges on it. Just plain dumb.

idk about other cars, but any Z is a Fairlady, may not say on the tail end but at the dealerships, their main model type = Fairlady...

and also dont know much about other cars, but the Z as well as Nissan have a history in the Us as to why theyre no longer the Fairlady and Datsun....maybe you should read up on that if you havent already. just a thought.

hmm...you bring up another thing...if i recall, thats another thing they addressed with the Zs name....in the US the big white men and their masculine muscle cars wouldnt appeal to such a feminine-ish name and wouldnt take the Z seriously as a sports car...

so what you are telling me is, that USDM Nissan 350Zs came from the factory with FairladyZ badges?

oh no, wait.....they didn't, because it's a 350Z and not a FairladyZ. when i see a car that's badged Skyline or FairladyZ, i look for RHD. no RHD, not the real deal. why is everyone so mad that i think it's rice to slap badges on a car when that isn't what it is? can i stick Mustang badges on an old Mercury Capri since it's the same thing?

again, here we go with JDM nutswinging. some people like it, some don't. i do not, so back off my nads about it. if you all love JDM so damn much, why don't you move to Japan and you can have all the JDM stuff and REAL Fairladies that you want.

me? i am proud to own a 350Z, a name with as much history behind it as the Fairlady name.

and whoever told me to read up about cars is a moron, you have no idea what i know or don't know. don't assume that just because i think mislabeling a car is rice, i know nothing.

actually it's quite the opposite. you are telling me to grow up? let's see here. i state that i do not like cars that are badged incorrectly. then a bunch of JDM nuthuggers jump all over me about how the car IS something it isn't. you seem to have delusions of me sitting at my computer with a red face, neck veins popping out and blood pressure on the rise over this crap. i could care less really. although i do enjoy replying every once and awhile to watch all you fanboys get bent and feel compelled to keep bringing up this issue.

i am pretty sure i have already stated that people can do whatever they want to their cars, not really any of my business. at least until they ask for an honest opinion, then they don't like it when they get it. poor things, i think you can find some Vagisil at the local drug store.

"what? he thinks badging a car with the wrong name is ghey? how un-JDM of him, how dare he? how dare anyone have an opinion that differs from ours?!!?!"

get over yourselves. again, if you all love JDM so much, why not move to Japan? either that or get used to the fact that people will have opinions that aren't the same as yours.
