![]() Whats going on, my name is Stephen. I just bought a 1992 240sx. I know a semi decent amount about cars in general but never worked with Nissan motors before. My goal is to do an RB25DET build in my coupe and just had a few questions as to where i should start, other than saving money lol. Hopefully I will be starting a build thread soon with some pics but some advice on what to expect would be appreciated. Thanks, I'm new to this forum as well

I'm Ted, I've had two 240's this year so far, so figured it was time to post up. Both were '96 zenki's converted to kouki's, each with SR swaps. I currently drive a black "kouki", 101k original miles on the chassis, 85k on the motor, gold rota wheels, dropped on springs, HKS hi power exhaust, t28 turbo, tuned, etc etc. Looking forward to getting more involved guys!

New from Nashville TN. I came here so I could purchase a kouki lip from CrimsonRockett, which I have already done. I think I will stick around though... I have 1 almost complete 240sx and 1 M30 in need of serious work to save. For my day job I am a mechanic and currently I work at a restoration shop for classic British cars. That's my story for now anyway.

Yo!
My name is Greg. I'm USAF stationed in Germany. Just purchased a 200sx S13 with a CA18det. Right now I have large FMIC and complete 3" exhaust with a Blitz stage 1 chip tune. Looking to do some upgrading. First step is finding a Nistune type 1 board. So... if anyone has any leads please let me know! Glad to be a part of Zilvia. Already learned a lot from researching the threads. Peace out y'all! |

Hello, my names Gianni and I'm from so cal. I'm new to any type of forum regarding the automotive field. I've been messing with 240s since I was 14. My first one was a 1990 s13 that was beat up but I ended up getting in a bad accident with it when I turned 16 and didn't have a car all through high school. Around senior year I found an ad for a 89 base model hatch and I bought it and slowly put it together the way I always wanted. It went from a shell to a silver hatchback with a Silvia ks front end with coilovers, 5zigens and an rb20det under the hood. I also have a 92 hatch thats gutted with a 6 point roll cage and full suspension, now its just waiting on a motor (hopefully ka-t).I do all the work myself and pride myself in doing things right when it comes to wrenching on my car or any of my friends cars. I thought Id join this forum mainly for buying and selling, and hopefully meet some s and z drivers that love nissans as much as I do.

Hi My name is matt, I bought a white s13 coupe with a blown engine in it, bought an engine from a member on here, pulled it with a friend, swapped the used engine in with a friend, painted my tires and now its running, saving up money for rims and a trip to a shop to get it running healthier. Planning on selling it, or trading for an s14 and going rb in it.

My name is Dewayne and just recently stationed in Okinawa, Japan. I'm coming from mustangs, but since I'm in Japan I want to try to find a 180sx or Silvia to play with. It's the reason I joined this site, to learn more about these cars. Thanks.

My names Chris and ive been into cars since i was a little kid. Coming from a family of muscle car owners they find it funny that im building a car with a "tiny 4 cylinder". I've always wanted a 240sx but people that sell them around me want about 4X more then the car is worth, so i just waited. Then one day when i was in class about to fall asleep, i get a call from a friend and i pick up and tell him quietly i can't talk and i'm in class. He tells me to step outside that it is important. He tells me he met somebody that wants to get rid of a shell for 400 bucks because hes moved on and bought a new car or w.e So i check it out and its got a swiped quarter panel, and a 6 inch or so rust spot on the passenger floorpan. Other then that it was in overall good condition. No cracked dash, nx1600 digi cluster, etc. Its paint is pretty much done but im not entirely concerned with that.. the Drivers quarter panel is side swiped. I managed to beat some of it out, but im tossing overfenders on it anyway. I picked up a redtop about 2 months ago from jdmengineworld in queens NY. the turbo was seized. I put oil into it and it managed to spin but not freely enough to consider good. So ive been collecting parts to finally put it into the 240 which i should have mentioned is a black 93 hatch. I'm tossing on a few upgraded parts while im at it. A Isis intake mani and front mount kit, mishimoto rad with 2 efan pullers, aluminum 1 piece driveshaft, tubular exhaust mani and full 3 inch exhaust, SS turbo lines with a s14 water neck so i dont have to feed the return behind the motor. And a few other random parts. Its going to be rough around the edges for a while but i wanted to get it running so i can atleast enjoy it a little bit while i get bigger and better parts for it.

![]() my name is ian im 18 and drive a 93 240sx hatch. bought the car stock and im learning as i go along before i go to auto school in september. ive learned alot so far and only wish i had more money to pour into my 240. so far ive installed godspeed coils, gs rear camber arms, tint. after owning the car for a year the tranny went out. so i swapped s13 redtop in and made my senior project out of it. list of mods include isis fmic, hks ssqv IV, walboro 255, idr theres a few other things. yea it is a bit of a budget build but i work full time hours for minimum wage so im happy for now. im going to wyotech and that is where i plan to actually build this motor. the main advantage is all ive learned, especailly wiring, we actually did 2 sr swaps in the same auto tech class and the day i got mine out i dented the oil pan and lost oil pressure burning the cam bearings. so i got to put on a new head, went with a cometic gasket. mine may not be the cleanest or best build ever but im just proud to be BUILT NOT BOUGHT.
