My name is Kostya, I just sold my NA Miata and picked up a 95 240sx with a blacktop SR20DET swap. I'm in socal, going to school at UC Irvine, but my home is in Malibu (good canyons
![]() The car came set up for drift with some very stiff Tanabe coilovers and a welded diff, but I'm going to change up the suspension setup for canyon driving with some stance GR+ coilovers with custom spring rates and some stickier tires (and more baller wheels)! A real LSD will proabably find its way into the car at some point as well, though the welded diff is quite a lot of fun. The car has little problems and quirks like a speedo that thinks I'm always going under 40, a trunk that won't open, rattle canned hood and trunk (being changed asap), and some quirky interior items, but I'm getting to like the car and really getting to like the abundant aftermarket support. I'll be around here quite a bit, learning as much as I can. |

Been here for a long time, but new to the forum.
Hello,
I have been watching this board since 2003 so I figure I should finally chime in. I have been a professional driver since 1995 and I have been racing Nissans since 1993. I drove an S-12 in SCCA ITB and won a championship in that car. I then drove for Nissan again in Grand-Am and won the prototype II championship in 2000. I then drove in the I.R.L. Infiniti Pro Series in 2002. To say the least I have driven a lot of Nissans throughout my racing career including driving an S-13 in GT at the Daytona 24hours in 98'. I also drove for Falken in the Koguchi S-13. I currently still own a 89', 90', and 91' S-13. Oddly enough only 1 runs. It is a track only car that is seam welded and caged with a red top SR-20. We also have a hardware company that specializes in racing hardware. So we have taken the time to develop several SR /S13/ S14 hardware kits. Hopefully we can help some folks out on here. Thanks! Ryan Hampton |

Hello, I found this site after taking up an interest in the S14's and have been reading for the past few days trying to learn more about them before I decide to purchase one as a project. I have a few years of auto body knowledge and have worked in a body shop so I know enough to repair any body damage on the car I might buy. I'm also currently in a welding class learning tig welding so I can make parts for my friends subaru and my own future car. I don't know a lot about drive train related things so that's what I hope to learn more about from this site.

I tried an Intro thread after searching and finding some, but apparently that was the wrong way to go. FWIW, every other board on the planet has intro threads w/pictures.
A lot of you may know me already from FA, 240SXForums, SR20Forum, NissanRoadRacing, and CarolinaNissans. If you know me from the latter, you may not like me too much as I'm a mod and often speak my mind. ![]() I did not intend it this way, but I currently own 5 Nissans ![]() 2008 Maxima SL, loaded except for Nav 2003 Pathfinder SE, 4WD, tow vehicle (but not much of one!) 1992 240SX parts car 1970 Datsun 510 Wagon 1993 240SX SE The last one started out as a HICAS/ABS model, and has been stripped completely. I had a rollbar added in February 2008, Sparco seats, and G-Force harnesses. After all the weight reduction and the rollbar stuff was installed, it sits at 2,410 pounds. I'm currently moving toward 350Z Track rotors with the same calipers, as I am converting to 5-lug. I test-fitted the setup and there is ZERO pad overhang like with the same rotors and Z32 calipers. I've done VIR-Full three times and CMP-Full once. I haven't done any events this year from losing my job and the economy, but hope to get one in next year. I've seen people talking about this board for a long time but just never joined. |

Hi everyone! My name is Trista and I just bought my first 240, a white 92 coupe! I had a Lexus IS300 but I got rid of it and bought my 240. I have been into 240s for a few years now, thanks to my bf WakeBHR. I plan on making it VIP style. Pics of my car are to come. Look forward to meeting you all!

Coming from NASIOC(subaru forum), its a nice change from the snobby kids with their parents money building their new sti's and wrx's. finally a forum for people that actually work on their car. I have a 95 s14 with a blown motor that im putting a black top s14 sr20.

whats up zilvia. iz is a noob from countryville USA. i daily a 91 hatch 5speed in rain, sleet, or shine. but not in snow b/c they salt the roads up here ...badly. nearly everyone here in west tx has either a pickup or a GM f-body. the racing scene is full of import haters and a (of course) civic owners. so i guess im kinda an outsider.
