Well a buddy a mine told me about the site a while back and I joined in case it became a closed registration, this was while I was putting my 240 together. Since then I have pretty much finished getting my car running. Pretty big task considering I'm in school and haven't had the time or place to work on the car. She started as a shell without drivetrain, literally nothing. I put it back together using parts from my totaled 97 240sx.
I'll just get to the pics.   This is an older picture, everything is pretty much tied together now, just trying to sort out idle issues and relocate my battery.  |

And for those who care, this was my 97 that I totaled a year ago.

Right now it's poor mans KA-t with a bottom mount setup, t-25, sr injectors and n60 maf. Going to get wheels and tires in the future. It's slammed on D2 coils. I need control arms soon as well. I'm not going to be a doriftor, but I want the suspension to be functional and not hurt the handling.
As for paint and body right now it needs a front bumper bad. The P.O. cut the shit out of the stock one to "fit an intercooler" and he fucked it up bad. Passenger headlight needs replaced but it'll work for now. Gotta fix my idle and find a small bumper. Prob turn the car into a mule and throw either a megasquirt V3 standalone on it running GM sensors or go with Nistune. It's gonna get a much larger turbo in the NEAR future. Prob a gt2871r. This car is really here to allow me to work on my FAB skills and learn how to tune a car. I've read a lot but it's time to actually put it to practice. I also wanna replace the damn EGAY exhaust. Sounds ok, but i really miss my 1 piece APEXI GT SPEC. |
