Hello every one. I'm Brendan and I'm new to the forum. As far as Nissans go, I've owned one 97 240sx, one 90 300zx, and currently own an 89 240sx coupe. The latest one needs some bugs worked out, but I'm sure I'll find every bit of info I need here. I live in Hendersonville, NC and we love ganja. So any locals ever feel like lending a hand I'm tall friendly. '

Hi Zilvia,

Names Jo and I've had a long and extensive background with Integras and owned quiet a few JDM RHD imports in Houston. Moved onto Euros for a bit and had a 06 GLI and 08 C300 and grew tired of the expenses of owning one. I was a field engineer for T-Mobile and bought a 4x4 5.7L TRD Tundra but got a new job with Samsung that doesn't require me to drive that big ass truck around. Got tired of paying about $80+ in gas every DAY or TWO and bought a beater S14 SE. In the process of building a KA-T but its hard with me traveling 90% of the time for work. Had a S13 that I was restoring but the shop that I had it at closed while I was away for work and don't know what happened to it. Just looking forward to beating the shit out of the car when its complete.

I am Carlos from Virginia Beach, VA. I have a 96' 240sx that is cosmetically torn up. I love this car but just could not keep it maintained because of financial reasons.
Today, I am back too where I could spend sometime on putting everything back in order and upgrading.

First, I want to start with the exterior, I have been proudly driving it for so long with a cracked up fiberglass front bumper, cracked up bondo'ed hood and cracked bondo'ed roof with rust to the metal, but really it has been an embarrassing experience.

I need to replace Sylvia bumper and vented hood then have the rest done by hand.

Please if anyone is will to sale me for low price (to help a brother out) a S34 type of style front bumper and fiberglass or carbon hood and could send it to Virginia Beach, Va. Please reply

That is my story.

Hey, im Simon from Australia. I drive a black S15. She's a work in progress. My intention is to create an awesome daily driver.

Short list of mods include 2871, Cams, Power FC L-Detro, Z32 Box, TwinPlate Os Giken 4.11 2way, usual suspension mods, 18" LMGT4's, Ganador mirrors etc.

Im here to see what others do to their cars and generally trawl through the tech sections.

Hey, guys. My name's Justin, I'm 17, and I live in Michigan.
I found this site when I was searching for a new car and since then I found a 1997 Nissan 240sx Kouki and I've been working on getting it running.

I'm pretty new to everything car related since this is my first tuner.
