You know you own an S14 because...
HERE IT IS!
Ok, I found the "You know you own an S13" thread hilarious, so I decided to continue the 90 S13 reasons with 150 S14 reasons (90+150=240, get it?) I hope you enjoy reading this =)
You know you own an s14 because.......
1) You search endlessly online for a silly piece of plastic that surrounds the radio.
2) You uncle sees the front and mistakes your car for an early 90's Toyota Camry.
3) You take 5 minutes out of your early ownership time learning what a "tension rod" is.
4) You're willing to contemplate paying $900+ for stock side skirts and bumpers from a regular 240sx... from Japan.
5) The thought of going with an S15 conversion crossed your mind atleast twice: when you bought the car, and when you saved enough $ to get body parts.
6) You like the fact that your car is the closest model Nissan ever sold in the U.S. that is as big as and looks like the great Skyline GT-R.
7) You prefer cars with big asses.
8) Orido started with an S14; Nomuken started with an S14; therefore since you have an S14 you're pre-destined to drive like them someday.
9) You know what PDM, JSPEC, RUCAS, and TEIN refer to.
10) You visit Nissan forums 8-9 times during your day, as if it's needed to live.
11) The first time you tell non-car people you got a 1995-1997 240SX, they can't seem to remember ther being such a thing.
12) YOu've driven around for awhile with your front grille off just to see if it looks more "Skyline-ish".
13) You bought a JDM cluster only to realize when you get it that the plugs in the back don't match.
14) You bought the JDM triple gauge panel too, even if it doesn't work with a KA24DE.
15) You sometimes scratch your head on a broken A-pillar trim piece when you get out of the car.
16) Your side glass sounds like it'll explode whenever you hit a pothole.
17) You hate reading back articles of writers referring to your engine as a "Hardbody" engine.
18) Every single aftermarket part is always 20-30% more expensive than an S13.
19) You waited for months for the Greddy Turbo Kit to be declared "50 state legal" only to be disappointed when it wasn't.
20) You "felt the pain" when you saw Seigou Yamamoto plow into Tarzan Yamada @ the Formula D finals.
21) You've contemplated the RB swap to get yourself "that much closer" to driving a Skyline.
22) The first question people ask after "You got an SR in there" is always "well are you gonna?".
23) You know every single exterior difference between the Zenki and the Kouki, but still don't know exactly which damn 240's came with LSD and which didn't.
24) You won't admit it but when you first read the term "sleepy eye" you thought that was referring to the Kouki S14 headlights.
24) You don't have to cut a brown wire to make your headlights look cool, because well - you don't even have popups in the first place.
25) You freak out for a moment when you get into your friend's S13 and you hear a strange motor noise coming closer and closer to your head.
26) You can't imagine how your fellow S13 brothers and sisters can drive a car with zero cupholders.
27) You purposely ask them "how come your car doesn't have cupholders" just to **** them off LOL
28) You're missing those dumb plastic things that go on the side of your factory fogs, and no one seems to be selling just those parts by themselves.
29) You look down on Civics feeling better because your car is in "a higher" class.
30) You've painted your valve cover. Even if it's not a real redtop or blacktop SR.
31) You hate the fact that S13 friends have 4 SR20DET's to choose from, but you only have 2 - unless you want to do a lot of wiring work.
32) You actually got pissed off at a cartoon when your car lost. On a mountain. In the rain. Against an AE86.
33) You felt proud to be an S14 owner, knowing that Keiichi Tsuchiya used it as his main instructing vehicle in the "Drift Bible".
34) You used the pause button on the aforementioned DVD many times to get the wheel/tire/offset specs on the Kei Office S14.
35) No one can sit behind you when you're driving, even if the S14 is larger than an S13.
36) You feel sorry for your fellow S13 owners, who have to spend an extra $200 on stock wheels and an extra $400 on parts to be 5-lug, like you.
37) You have dreams of something called "Final Konnexion".
38) You've had a "Silvia" emblem of some sort on your car at one point in time.
39) Your headlights look like cornbread exploded in it.
40) Your definition of "Hyper Lemon" is different from normal people.
41) You stare at any full sized sports car with 5 lug wheels, wondering if they'll look good on your car.
42) You'd rather have smaller than stock wheels on the back of your car for track days, because track days = drifting days.
43) The terms "SSR" and "Work" surround your random daily thoughts.
44) Seeing N.O.B. make the finals 2 years straight at D1 Grand Prix made you think about that "S15 conversion" once again.
45) Every so often you recite the meanings of "J's", "Q's", and "K's" to your girlfriend, who doesn't care anyways.
46) You enjoy when the rain is on its way because "that's what you bought the car for".
47) You also fear going past 25mph in the rain because you don't want that big *** to whip around unexpectedly.
48) Your tie rod boots look like a bunch of rubber washers.
49) Your right leg has been conditioned to being 20-30 degrees hotter than your left leg.
50) Same as #49, but now we're talking about your right foot.
51) You try different words like "S14", "240sx", "Silvia", and "240" on Ebay to make sure you get to see EVERYTHING available for your car.
52) You also tried "JDM" but that took forever weeding through all of the gay HOnda/Acura auctions.
53) You wish you lived closer to any mountain range.
54) You're stuck with deciding between the "Rear Strut bar that you can see" over "the one you can't".
55) Used tires now make sense to you.
56) You take pride in knowin ghtat parts of your car were derived from (again) the Skyline GT-R.
57) even if you have cupholders, they don't seem to hold any type of "cup" properly.
58) You get revved on by every single Civic and Integra in the entire United States.
59) You've wanted Tein HE's at one point of time during your ownership.
60) You're on a first name basis with the guy at the Nissan parts counter.
61) You never really know how much gas you have because the needle changes positions depending on how fast you're going.
62) You have ben waiting for this thread ever since you got a kick out of reading the S13 version.
63) You hope to God that you don't get a flat tire far from home, since you don't want anyone to see you rolling on a huge yellow steelie.
64) You were pissed that "Midnight Maximum Tune" didn't have an S14 in it... so you got the S15 instead because "it's family".
65) You've learned what "dori", "choko", "hayai", and "anda" means.
66) You find any reason whatsoever to drive somewhere if it's raining.
67) Your temperature gauge is at that certain spot where you don't know if it's gonna overheat or not.
68) You try to teach your girlfriend how to tell the difference between a Zenki and a Kouki.
69) You first find it a little weird that the side air vent is part of the door, not the dash.
70) You wave at any other 240 driver you pass on the roads.
71) Every other make FR is now "your ally" i.e. FD's, FC's, Supra's, Corolla's, etc.
72) You've spent at least an hour inside your trunk with wire cutters and electrical tape just to get your aftermarket head unit to power up.
73) You'd be content if you had OEM Nissan parts on your car, as long as it's OEM Japan.
74) You've calculated how long you have to save up to buy tension rods, tie rods, tie rod ends, rear camber arms, toe arms, and traction rods all at once.
75) When someone says "pineapple" you think of round poly or machined circles with a cut in them.

133) You've spun out in the mountains at least once.
134) You've stood in front of your car, trying to picture R33 headlights on it.
135) You've been through the "N1 exhaust at an angle" phase (or you're still in it).
136) Sometimes you wish you could get that JDM "sleepy eye look" your friends have but then realize your headlights don't even move.
137) You feel like your car's "parents" are 300ZX twin turbos and early 90's Maxima's.

145) No matter how low you lower your car on coilovers, it still doesn't look lowered.
146) You're willing to sacrifice the comfort of air conditioning just to be able to have a boost guage in your car that actually works.
147) Hearing that familiar vibrating "buzz" coming from your shifter signals to you that you're above 4000rpm.
148) You see old school 200SX's and say out loud "S12".
