Hey my name is Steve, and I just got myself a 1997 240sx all stock except for an exhaust system. I am fairly new to the 240 scene, and this is my first manual car.

![]() Hey, my name is Real. I have a pearl white '95 240 that I bought brand new in Sept. '95. It's got 340,400 miles on it. It's in awesome shape. I won best paint last Sept in the SoCal S Chassis meet in Anaheim. Original paint mind you. Now I have a built SR in it and a Power fc tuning it. It's a great car. I get a lot of looks. No body kit and it has black XXR wheels. I loved building the first SR, but had Marco from the SR20Store build me this one. No numbers from the dyno, but the other SR was pushing 262rwhp. It now wears a Silvia badge 'cause it hauls ass. I live in ALiso Viejo and would like to meet other 240 owners. Let me know.

Hey everyone. I'm Rick. Picked up a 92 hatch today in a trade for one of my RHD Accord Wagons (I now have 2 left). I used to work for an importer in Torrance up until this month. Had a few friends back in Ventura County that had S13's & I've always had a soft spot for them. My car has about 162,xxx on the chassis & about 40,xxx on the SR. typical bolt on's, S15 seats, JDM seat belts & JDM head liner. currently on SSR MKII-R's, but might get rid of them for something else. silvia front end conversion & an unpainted kit, which i will do a temporary fix via the good ole rattle can.
nice to meet everyone! |

Hi! I'm new. I've got a beat up and abused 89 hatchback with a KA24DE swap and in need of lots of love. Her eventual goal (should she survive a thorough check) is to be a track car. Nice to meet everyone!

![]() New to posting here, been reading here for a while tho. A little backround...I am originally from Central iowa, growing up i drove honda's...had a 97 pelude and a 99 civic SI. I joined the air force when i was 20 and my first duty station was litterally in the suburbs of tokyo. It was fucking awesome. I got into drifting while i was there drove just about every JDM car you could imagine. I got home in fall 09 and have been saving some money up. Now im living in north dakota. Saturday i finally found the car i have been searching for. A 1 owner completely Stock 1995 240SX se in mint condition. I am working with a couple friends still in japan on getting a motor purchasd. 90% sure i am going RB26dett. but depending on availability and price i MIGHT choose to go RB25DET. I am 7 feet tall, and i like to party.

Well, I'm new here just like everyone else...minus the people who've been here saying hi. I was getting tired of the Honda game, FWD was starting to make me hate life so I made the jump to RWD in March. Picked up a 76' 280z, after driving that around town and having a little bit of fun pitching it sideways in the rain decided to do some more looking around. Then in may I came across a random for sale post and bought myself a 92 240sx coupe. Came track ready completely gutted out, sparco evo seat, auto power cage, stance coilovers, sr20det swap, one peice aluminum drive shaft, LSD, and Toyo Proxy's all around. There is a lot more to list, just trying to get the basics of the car out there. Currently I've been daily driving it until I can get my Civic sold, then we will see what I do with it.
Nice to meet all of you |

hey, i`m Roger from SD, CA. i have an 89 hatchback. did a 5 speed manual swap, built my own 2.25 inch cat back exhaust with cherry bomb resonator and an ebay apex n1nabe exhaust muffler. got tokico hp springs and shock convo, 17x9 25 off set xxr 006 wheels and 225/45/17 falken rt615 tires. my friend Gabe from ASC built me a front strut tower brace and welded the rears in place(for future full welded on roll cage), other than that, it`s completely stock. future plans are vq35 rev motor swap with the 6 speed trans. and better brakes and suspension for road race track days. oh and it`s the FOURTH s13 made. so it is special to me. hope to gain a lot of information and knowledge here. thanks in advance.

hello one and all! my name is kenji or kenzilla. and i like to dump absurd amounts of money into old cars! i drive a 91 z32, its stock, its NA, and its far from being the sports car i know its capable of being. and so im planning on doing an N/A build throughout the summer/fall/winter. it wont be as fast as the TT, but it will be done with my own 2 hands, soo i dont give a fuck! haha

Hey guys, this is John from Hoons Unlimited Photography here in Brisbane, Australia...
I get around to alot of events at Archerfield Drifts, stadium Drift Australia and occasionally QR... I also took the release pics for Robby Mounfield's Drift car sil80.. I currently have a 180sx in the build and being converted to a ute.. (truck for those US guys....)... Nizzpro on the Gold Coast have come on board with the build and offered full sponsorship and support in regards to the VG30ETT build. Yes that is a VG30ET not DET... and going twin turbo.. Why??..smaller allowing more room and still with output of 400RWHP from stock internals, with East Coast Customs supplying the NIStune tuning.... |

woops look like i fucked up already by making that new thread -___-, sorry mods!!
"Wassup everybody? Came to this forum cause I've lately fallen for the 240sx lol. I don't know if this would be the right place to start a hello thread, but if its in the wrong place feel free to move it. Anyways just to give yu a lil backround real quick, just turned 19 a couple weeks ago, I love cars..BUT imma n00b when it comes to them lol, I SADLY dont know how to drive stick yet. -___- but i will learn very soon. The other car forums im on are EvoM & EvoEmpire, so yes imma Evo lover.... but i gotta admit the only car i would rather have than an evo would be a R-34 ;]! Anyways looking to make friends with the whole community!! don't wanna make this too long, imma go look in the FS section to see if i can find someone's 240 they're selling.... btw i live in the South Bay Area,California! So if anyone around the area has a 240 for sale or something decent thats manual let me know! ' |

New here, I don't have a 240 yet. I have a 1988 BMW E30 325ix. I wanted an s13 when I was looking for my first car, I ended up with the BMW which I love to death. However, i don't want AWD for the track. I am looking to get a clean s13 hatchback. I know at some point it will get an SR20, unless I find one with it already.
I have a question or two though, -which chassis braces are most recommended? -what coilovers are most recommended for the track? I see mostly drift coilovers. |
