Hey all, new on zilvia but I've been on my local 240 forums. I'm from CT and recently switched over from the mitsu scene after picking up a 93 240 SE. Lots of info here, feels like I'll be doing a lot of reading for some time to try and get up to speed.

Hello and thank you all for having this forum and archiving so much information on these cars! I'm 27 and from southern Arizona. I currently own a 72 Gran Torino formal sport, 73 Ranchero GT CJ, and a 79 Ranchero 500 that I am doing an "Elite" swap on, I love my fords and there's no getting around that but I DO have a soft spot for the Nissans. My first car was an 86 Nissan pickup that I rebuilt from a wreck (total waste now that I'm older, lol) and I also had a Turbo 84 300zx dropped into my lap a few years ago, but it was so trashed and my knowledge was so limited that there wasn't any real hope of fixing it at the time.

Now I'm looking into getting myself a z32 300zx and I'm looking to see where they like to bend and break, what I can realistically do and what is just plain beyond my abilities. My plan is to find a 2 seater car with a 5 speed, unload the engine, reinforce the chassi, and drop in a 351 Cleveland engine. I've seen where people have stuffed chevy 350/LS1/LT1s in these cars which are wider, taller, longer, and heavier than my favoritest engine of them all. Also from what I've seen I'll need to circumvent the engine ECU without screwing up the rest of the car and tweak a "fox swap" kit to work with the z32 chassi as well as fab an exhaust. At this point I'm sure I'm missing something but hopefuly with the help of everyone here I can finally score a Nissan that isn't a total money pit.

Hey everyone, I just bought my first ever 240sx, i used to drive civics, i hopped in my cousins s14 w a full silvia conversion and i was hooked. i have a s13 hatch w a ka24de swap in it, almost pristine interior, the engine and the suspension are all pretty good, but the body is what i'll be working on for this summer. i actually joined this website to try and help me find some oem side skirts. i have some items i might be willing to part w to get them, also cash. ( i got a full silvia floor mat set and possibly the pignose front lip to trade) thanks alot guys, glad to be a membe

Hello all. I am Michael. A few months ago I bought a black 95 with an oil problem. Now the KA is apart in the garage and I found out there was a big ass leaf blocking all oil flow! I have big plans and will eventually be posting a build thread.

Hey everyone, name's Ryan. I'm 18 and I've owned a '99 Integra LS Sedan for about 2 years. Modded tastefully.

Joined here because I plan on picking up an S14 in the future and just wanted to learn a little in the mean time.

Didn't realize I wasn't supposed to make an intro thread, but consider it more of a pic thread of my integra lol. here
