Hi there, I'm new to site and thinking about getting a 240sx. My old car was a modified C43 AMG. I swapped in an E55 5.4L motor.

new here, old hobbie...

Just bought my first Silvia ( zenki S14 Silvia Q's). If you wanna get an idea of my involvement with the scene, I guess the cars of my past (I still have the '94 Supra and '92 MR2, both for sale) would best describe me...

New tricks for an OLDDOG

I have a 1990 240sx that my Daughter and I Autocross.

Mods are an 98 DOHC swap, Cams, R32 brakes Lowered suspension with heavy sway bars, lsd, AFC, intake, headers, 3" exhaust.

Next project is a T3/T4 turbo on the KA with revhard, 550's, Z32 maf,wideband, and Apexi boost controller. Piggyback prototype ecu from Ash Spec with tuning and revised fuel maps.

Last Autocross we ran 2 and 3 behind a bmw on race tires in D/street prepared.

n00b here

Hey everyone! I'm a n00b to the Nissan world. I've been a honda girl for quite some time now (I have owned a Mitsu 3000GT SL and VR4, 66 Chevelle SS, Integra GSR, Civic Hatchback) but I've moved into the world on Nissan's since my boyfriend has a beautiful 350z and I've fallen in love with 240's.

I myself just purchased a 1993 Nissan 240sx Coupe. She's green with tan leather interior, HUD and a digital tach (that doesn't work... I am not sure if it's just broken or a wire). I'm going to do the auto/manual swap in the mean time since auto is just a bore. I'm going to work on her slowly so that I order premium parts not just what a shop has on it's shelf.

My boyfriend owns a 1990 Nissan 240sx Coupe that I am trying to sell!! So look for my post in the for sale section!!

thanks
-Lauren

I am steven recently purchased 2 S13 coupes one with the KA24DE and the other with a KA24E. Just like the forums and find out a lot of things from cars past cars were 1995 Honda Civic EX and a 2000 BMW 323i (yes I am 20 and payed for each on my own) Sold the bimmer and got a few of these to save up money for other things. Now I can't stop driving 'em.
Mods on the way: Tein S Tech Springs, KYB AGX, Custom 2.5" exhaust from there its time to start saving for the SR.

Keep It Clean

SR

I have a red 92 RPS13 rolling on stock wheels and suspension, JDM s14 seats (got em cheaper than I could junkyard USDM s14 seats and they are basically brand new), no nothing ho hum exterior, stock exhaust, oh and I have a Redtop SR20DET w/SMIC installed, HKS Super Suction Kit, and a VLSD.
I prefer sleeper cars, but I must admit that Kouki body kit is rather appealing.
Within the next two weeks, I'll be installing some KYB AGX up front and GR in the back. Still deciding what exhaust I'm gonna get; between the ApexI GT and an AB FLUG system. Since I dont do track or street racing, I'm just going with a TEIN suspension linkage system to better increase the handling in the curves. I will by years end, upgrade to a Greddy FMIC, Koyo radiator, Nismo AFPR with Walbro 255 install, a decent BOV, a boost controller, then finish it off with a 5 lug conversion and a nicer set of bronze or gun metal 17's.
I think I want to rewire the car as I dont really care too much for the current wiring setup. I'm going to rebuild my T25 as soon as I can figure out how to get that crazy manifold shroud off!!!
