The NEW 240sx Bible (Vol. 2, Unifinished)
So, I’ve been a member of Zilvia (on other screen names that I’ve managed to lock myself out of) for years and have never really bothered to post anything until now-ish. But I’ve been collecting information and crap I thought was interesting for years… I did a “select all” for my bookmarked links and found out I have over 500 links related to aftermarket mods and Nissan stuff. So I decided that I’m going to organize them a little, and contribute my “findings” to Zilvia and the rest of the world…
Added 12/03/07: I know this is a lot! So to help you search for whatever you need (assuming you weren't brought here by a search engine!), you can pres CTRL+F and type in ONE KEY WORD related to what you're searching for. Then click "Find next." For example, if you're looking for an RB20 X-reference list, just hit CTRL+F and type in RB20...I know you may have to hit Find Next a lot, but at least (hopefully) you'll find what you're looking for! This is the same shortcut for Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer. I know that there’s already The Ultimate 240sx Bible Volume 1 out there, so I figured this could kind-of be an expansion that. “The New Testament/Vol 2.” Please feel free to contribute! I will update this post as frequently as I can! Also, I know some of these links can be put under different categories… This is just how most of them are categorized on my computer. I’m also obviously not listing every link I have… just the ones I think might be of interest. If there’s something you absolutely can’t find, I’ll see if I have a link on it.

Lowering the CA18 - Liked this. CA18DET Links List - Has wiring instructions on fitting different MAFS, fitting DSM resistors, standalone installs how to... I'd like to hear people's response to this, and any way they think I should modify it... Like different categories, how I should arrange things (alphabetical, order of interest)... I did a couple stars next to the ones I thought were really interesting, and if you guys have ratings to other links that'd be nice to know too... Added 12/03/07: Thanks to you guys and a couple others, I do have some CA links that I'll post when I get home later today. For now, while I'm at work, I added almost 50 more links. Added 12/29/07: Sorry, still not a lot of CA links, but I'm sure the sites listed will be a good start for anyone looking just for general info. Last edited by hijack3d; 12-29-2007 at 04:30 PM..

Thanks guys... Sorry no CA stuff yet, I will look in Aussie forums for the next update... just never swapped in a CA or worked on one before so never had the need to look up stuff on it... but that's not to say there's no love there! :P

Alright, so I'm not all the way done.. haha.. but I do have a .doc file that has all of these links, that's typed with the html-thingy that the forum recognizes for easy copy-paste to other 240sx forums. I don't know how to host the file so if anyone does, please let me know. I can also email you the file if you PM me!
