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.

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.

Maybe its more of a honda / acura thing, but either way, if I see people with the fairlady badge, I wouldn't give them a hard time about it. Its all just personal preference & I wouldn't consider it rice.

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...

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.

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.
