Thumbs down S2000 owners Talkin' Trash

Hey all, my cousin has a 02' s2000... well him and i recently took some pictures of our cars. Well he went home and uploaded them to S2ki.com (i think that is the site). Anyways when they all saw the pictures on the s2k forum, they said things like the VQ is a crappy engine, the g35 and the 350z are pigs. That they have no technology inside.

I can't stand trash talking, and it isn't cool that the people on this forum respect the s2k, and they just trash talk our cars... i guess an out dated f series v-tec engine is way more advanced then a VQ....hehe not!!

Dude that's not cool. I hang out with a number of S2000 guys and they have nothing but respect. BTW, you're from Fresno? Cool, me too.

yobri,
Yeah the weather's pretty freakin' hot. Especailly having a CAI, I notice that the car performs better during the evening when it gets that cooler, denser air.

GemmeDeMoN,

Dude, what's your Z look like? I'm up and down Herndon, West of Blackstone all the time. Maybe we've seen each other.

That's sweet to see that you have the mt G35. Do you know Brain Lum or any of the other dudes who are part of the central valley S2Ks?

THanks for the props on my Z.

Brian's is silver, but no side skirts. He is supercharged though. Hey, if you're interested in SCCA autocrossing, there is an event down at Castle (Atwater) this Sunday. It's a good group of people.

Care to post a link to the thread?

I've been on s2ki.com for a long time, and from what I've seen the 350Z gets plenty of respect it deserves.

Of course you'll always have a few fanboys who have to diss everything else on the road, but it's like that on any car forum.

S2000 owners love the G35. I've been on the board for quite a while also and I use the forums everyday, and I have not seen ONE thread with a S2000 + G35 and someone posting crap about the G35.

I've read mostly positive comments about the G35 on S2Ki, and I love it myself. Why did I wander over to this forum? Just trying to learn more about the cars on my list of potential future S2000 replacements!

I don't see any pics, and I don't see anything about an S2000 driver racing his cousins G35... and the people who said the VQ was stinkin' was because they are obviously biased and talk out of their butt. So I don't know what you were talking about in your first post, but, whatever.
