In past weeks there have been as many posts related to the sprinter as there have been to almost all the other cars combined. When you combine this with the inane ever-repeated questions aimed at "low cost" drifting it fair raises the hackles of those reading the posts and I can quite understand and agree with the sentiment. There is also a trend on the board for rarity-factor being cool. As soon as something becomes popular, then it's not cool anymore. Sadly, the Sprinter seems to be the car in the spotlight at the moment (for better or worse) and so to the board incumbents in general, it is most definately, not cool. Perhaps if ppl were doing things like a 2ZZ-GTE conversion into them then there might be some genuine interest and some very good techincal discussion going on. Until then I have to sit here with my newbie bullshit filter on cringing everytime someone posts about how cool they'll be drifting in a Aus-Spec AE86... just my 1.07 after-tax cents... Cheers, Dan thats why I'm getting annoyed with lately. you do get sick of hearing the same old things over again and to cop crittism from one AE86 driver about the choise of car i drive is also pathetic. you start to wonder why people hate them. i like the car, it's some of the drivers and there attitudes that pisses me off and I am starting to get put off by them (same as why I hate Commodores (not all sprinter drivers are wankers) but it seems to be on the rise about sprinters I always used to think before I joind this forum for some reason Supra's would be getting the biggest wrap but apparently not. although the anyone welcome but AE86's cruise thread was a bit harsh but to the sprinter owners I thought... maybe will hear stories soon about sprinters being nicely restored to mint conditon and a reco 4A-GE with a bit of an exhaust and a nice set of mags and being looked after instead of the usally I wanna know a cheap drift set up and I smashed my sprinter into a pole whiile drifting stories i think a lot of people are sick of hearing [Report message to a moderator]
