I'm new, well I've been a member for a little while. I've been lurking around in the forums and reading a lot. Just thought I'd introduce myself, I'm Alex like my screen name, just got my first 240sx as a project from my buddy Schuyler and Roo so that is in the works. It's a 91 hatch and has a spun bearing needs some body work and a lot or cleaning.

My plans:
Eaton m62 supercharged KA24DE
Tokiko Shocks with RSR springs (thanks Schuyler)
Z32 brakes/5 lug
Mild interior upgrades, (new seats with reapholstered rears to match, new carpet, power sliding spoiler type moonroof, refinished dash/maybe flock, HUD maybe.

No body kits or spoilers here, I just want to make the car look like it did when it rolled off the show room floor in 1991. With a little better performance.

hey guys my names jack
I just picked up a 93 s13 hatch that was crashed...
I plan on fixing the body, repainting and adding a few mods for now
so far I picked up a stock s15 turbo, godspeed intercooler kit, rota grid rims and other little parts.
I plan on getting good set of coils and possibly building the KA later.
also, if anyone has either s14 or 350z seats let me know!

Whats up guys. My name is Thomas, I drive a 1990 s13 coupe in the Springfield, MO area..I have big plans for my car, just small pockets at the moment. I joined zilvia not long after I bought my car because I needed new motor mount brackets. I was surprised and grateful to see how many people own 240's. I've learned mostly everything I know about the s chassis through this website, and without it I would still be searching for all kinds of things on google, ebay, craigslist,etc.. So a big shout out to all the post whores!



I'll be hitting up Gateway on the 28th, everyone in the area should do the same and support the MDU guys.

Hi all,

My name is Tim and I'm from New Zealand (NB: It's the country just south of Australia - Many years ago some the brighter Australians grew tired of drinking bad beer in a can and paddled here in a Waka.)

I have just completed a SR swap into a 180sx to replace the ageing CA18DET. The plan is to build it up into a tidy street car running some oldschool HKS goodies. I already have an ostentatious S13 to slide in, so the 180sx needs to stay a tidy street car.

Anyway I was just wondering if you guys would be interested in a build thread for both cars. Among the interesting things coming up we've got an EBC & HKS gauge install, attempting to road tune an old HKS FCON with a GCC and consult software, messing with a PowerFC to try and get it going and we are also going to try and relocate the 180sx headlight motors down into the bumper when fitting a part shop max intercooler kit.

Let me know if you guys are keen on a thread and I'll throw something together over the next few nights.

Tim

Sup!

I'm Santi, live in Toronto, Canada. I've Been lurking for a while, never really posted though... until meow. Bought a '93 Silvia Q's about a month ago. After owning a shitty rusted to shit hatch, I decided to get an imported car since it was the only way to find a really clean chassis without having to pay an arm and a leg for it. Happy with it so far even though its all stock.

Plans for the car are basic things like coilovers, wheels, maybe a bucket seat later on.

I also do photography around Toronto, covering some events and just shooting friends cars, etc. If you want to check that out I have a website StaticMotion | or peep my flickr Flickr: Static//Motion's Photostream.
