Whats up I'm chris from mass I joined today because I'm looking for a 240 to buy I'm willing to spend something around 6 or 7 g's. I'm new to the 240 scene previously I've been into trucks mostly so I'm not the most educated on 240's. Im educated and trained in mechanics so i know my way around a vehicle. Im open to any suggestions as to what to look for but I'm looking for a clean, well maintained turbo s13 or s14. Hmu!

Sup guys, I'm new to the forum and to 240SXs...recently got me a project S14 which was pretty much a rolling chasis. Will be dropping in an SR and turning it into a track/drift toy. I'll make a built thread once I get things underway, for now, collecting funds and parts...BTW I'm from Guam, and if you can't tell by my handle, the name's Bryan.

Hi peeps,

Names Mel and I'm from the UK. Been a long time browser but have finally decided to sign up.

I am on my 2nd s-body having owned and crashed (at Brands Hatch Circuit) a 97 Kuro black kouki. I currently own a 92 Kuro black s13 which i got completely standard, wrecked as a daily on our crappy roads then decided to turn into a track biased car for fun times.

My current s-body

Wassup guys at Zilvia!? My names Ralphy, and I'm a 16 year old that's been addicted to cars ever since I was a baby & recently got his license . I've been around Toyota's (TE72's & AE86's) and Honda's (EF Civic's and DA Integra's) thanks to my dad. My first car was actually a DB2 GSR Integra but I needed to get rid of it since it was a Fwd & I love drifting too much. I plan on buying a Zenki S14 in the near future to get away from the past years of the Toyota's/Honda's and become a teen Nissan enthusiast/drifter

From New York, picking up a '97 S14 tomorrow. Have been looking for an unmolested good condition one for a while now, finally have found it. Very excited to be a part of the platform, nice meeting you all.

My other baby is a tastefully modified '97 Mitsbushi VR-4. Good for a reliable 500bhp via 13G's with everything still intact.

Cheers,

Hello,
I am Alex from the Santa Cruz area. I got my '93 240sx fastback last year, but I have not gone around in buying aftermarket parts for it, since i am attending a university with a strict budget. This summer though, I am planning in getting new headers and suspension parts for my car, and this forum has helped me a lot with picking new parts for my car.

Hello... I am brand spanking new to this forum. I've inherited a 1996 black Nissan 240. We've had it in the family since 2002. long story short: hubby purchased the car with intent to drift, got pregnant, it sat idled, brother borrowed it mean while, now I'm driving it daily.

133,000 miles later, the 240 needs help and I don't know who I can take it to. I took it to two local mechanics and I think they made the car worst. I want to take it to someone that appreciate the car and understand it's capability.

Where can I take the car? Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Hey there everyone!
I'm new to Zilvia, but I've been visiting the for sale and WTB sub-forums for quite some time

I own a 1984 Nissan 300ZX 2+2 N/A unfortunately but she's quite the beast in some cases


I hope to gain some more data about drifting and what not. I've been drifting for a while, just not real seat time at a track or real layout
