I'm new here too, I'm a Belgian guy living in France (my job is aviation related, I'm an airplane driver...) and own an S13 as weekend-toy, the EU version so RS13 with CA18DET.

It has been slightly tweaked since I bought it in '06 and I love it more and more. My daily drive is a quite slowish Nissan '92 Sunny N14 GTI (SR20DE engine), it has the same exterior as the GTIR to give you an idea as this model did not exist in the US (in terms of chassis and engine it should compare to the B13 Sentra if my memories are correct).

I'm actually subscribing here as I found something interesting to buy for the SX in the for sale thread for Christmas

a slight overview of the S13 can be found here, albeit in french:

Cool Great! Another 240 freak

Hey guys. My name is my 180 8 U. I'm currently carving the canyons of the real O.C. I have been away from the scene for a few years due to my love affair with my 2008 honda CBR 600. I'm glad to be back though. I'm currently driving a Zenki 180sx SE. Well I'm glad to be back and see ya later.

Hey guys, just joined here. I have a 1994 Nissan 240sx convertible. I'm about to do the auto-> manual swap and it needs things like shocks bushings etc. Just recently swapped out the stock ka(for another ka haha) due to a rod knock, so its drievable for now. After I get the 5spd swap and suspension stuff done I 'm going to work on turboing my old ka. I've been into 240's for a longggg time, like since I was 12 haha, hope to make some new friends here!

s13

I have been off and on this site for about almost three years now and I thank the site for not deleting my user name when I took a year and a half break from here while I was transitioning the corporate warehouses that I work for during the fail of the economy. This site has been very helpful. I have learned 2 things,#1 I can't live without having a 240sx to drive and #2 if you want to make your car last baby it,maintenance,maintenance, maintenance. I don't like when future 240sx enthusiest are being beat down for lack of knowledge for wasting space on here but it happens don't take offense, that stuff should be in this thread. This site has helped me greatly to maintain my 240sx before my problems became major fixes, the old threads are a fix all library. To bad we don't have a forum that has all the most visited old threads as most useful or helpful. 240sxrex

Hey,

I'm Matt, I'm young, but I'm a gear head and so is my dad. Been an enthusiast of cars forever, my dad owns a restoration and race shop. All roadcourse cars, none of the circle bs. He specializes in old american muscle, mostly Mustangs/Shelby's and Camaros but works on newer stock cars and trans-am series cars etc. I drive a 1973 Camaro, 4speed, 468cu in, 568hp (@flywheel). Hoping to get into a 240sx this spring, got around 3.5k (building) putaway for an s13 hatch.

Sup guys Nissan Junkie here from Sunny So-Cal,
Got my first 240 in 2002 been thru 3 Fastbacks since then (I'm a Fastback guy), I'm on my third one it's a 91 just hit original 100k miles, I also own a 76 z and I used to own an 05 G35.

Well I hope to learn more stuff here and I hope to avoid Assholes that always have negative shit to say, because I know that type of shit always happends on online forums. (i.e) "What size tires do I need?" "Stop being lazy and search" Isn't what these forums are for to help eachother? well i'll stop ranting on and nice to meet all of you I hope I have a good experience on this one.

Ello gents! If anyone here is from 240sxforum yes i am the same word sux as there. I've been a nissan and 240 fan for years now and have owned one in the past but kinda dropped outta the community in the past 2 years. I used to have a name on here but I can't seem to remember what it was. My freind might be getting an rb25 s13 and I'm going to have to do most of the wrenching so I figured I should join back up here since its another goldmine of info plus I plan on getting another 240 this spring. Not to mention that zilvia has the best for sale section this side of the universe! =D

New

I guess its obvious im new, i decided to stop lurking and finally become a member and stop lurking now that i have my own 240sex 1995.

I went trough a lot to get this car, i even got hit the 1st day i got the freaking thing. now the body is fixed but im still having some challenges engine wise but apart from that im still hyped about my purchase.

I didn't believe the hype when my homeboy told me this car was legendary but slowly but surely im a believer, these kids around my block or acting like im on god mode because of this car (which makes me suspect and want to buy an alarm more than ever) I just though it was a sexy car. But i guess its more...

New as far as posting is concerned, around 2005 I got my first 240 (89 FB), generally hanging around NWN and only coming to Zilvia to check out peoples projects, eventually the car was towed from it's parking spot in Washington while I was in California, got another 240 this year (93 FB) and registered in March since NWN went down hill... finally decided to make myself known as of December :P

Random Facts: My initials are JDM, I am stuck in the Antelope Valley Vortex of which their is no escape, and I love Goldschlagger and Pho... but not togethor.

Hey I just bought my first Nissan, yea a 240sx, its a 1990 with a red top sr, and a JDM from clip... its not to bad for a 20 year old car.

So here I am to listen and learn... plan on a lot of searching and pestering of the guru's.

Me, well i'm an "old" guy, (read +35) and am very much a car guy, in fact my company designs cars, check out the new 2010 Saleen S281 or the Rossion Q1...

not a plug, but for some neat eye candy check out my site:

Revolution Design Studios - Digital Design Solutions

Well, I hope to learn a lot and with luck and time to offer help to others.

Thanks,


Chris
