Default Sxoc

I'm wondering who from here has bothered to pay and join the SXOC ?
Even before Z009 I get the impression they, on the whole, don't like S12s.

as most of you know im not an s12 owner (just bits of s12s) so only my opinion, but i have always felt the sxoc membership justified. some of the long termers on sxoc have owned s12s 'back in the day'. trouble is the s12 discussion traffic is split here and there, so neither gets a full shot at it.

the depth of knowledge here is great, and although i was annoyed when the membership changes were made here a while ago (can of worms..), im happy to pay the fee for the help and knowledge here, was just the manner it was done that annoyed me (not alone there it seems)

ironically, the s12 seems to me to be a bit more 'in vogue' currently as its not only a turbo'd nissan, but its retro too so has a boot in both camps. s13s arent retro enough yet although plenty rusty

all only my humble opinion chaps...

I've done a rolling road day with the sxoc and most were very interested in the S12 along with the others I've met at various events . I think the main trouble with the sxoc is that there is a majority who forget all about the S13 as there are not as many about as S13's or S14's and because it doesn't have the 200sx name a case in point is the " Inspirational S body " thread the thread starter only asked for S13, S14 and S15 pictures not S12 so no pictures of say the Silhouette S12's have been posted.

I've been a member of the SXOC for a few years. I got quite a lot of out if it so my opinion is that being a member is a sensible way of putting something back in. Plus I go to their monthly meet. I've never owned a 200SX and havent had an S12 for a few years, in fact I've gone to the 200SX meet a few times in my Thunderbird.

Not sure why I come here either seeing as I haven't had an S12 for a while but I guess I just find it interesting to see what people are up to, tell Shaun he's a bit of a mug and stuff like that

Maybe I should go to a meet. People can be totally different when they are on the 'net.
