I`ve got a lot to do to this car but at least it was a non-molested car with a little front-end damage and a blown head gasket . I`ve been doing my research and weighing the pros and cons of engine swaps and I have started to lean toward a KA-T since I have a spare engine to rebuild and the cost of the parts to do a turbo setup on the KA along with the rebuild parts is about the same as a complete SR20 redtop swap . Now I plan on going past the HP numbers of a stock SR20 , because stock is never enough . Enough about the plans , right now I want to get it on the road since I put a head gasket on it , pimp the auto trans til I find a 5 speed and play with it til I get the new engine built and other parts piled up in the corner of my bedroom .

The only thing that gets under my skin is ink .
Just everybody be on the lookout for 240`s sitting . I`ll buy a complete car for parts so I can start a nissan parts horde , the cheaper the better .

your best bet for "local" nissan parts would be JGY in Atkins,Va. although im not a fan of Jason(the owner), he does carry plenty of parts for all types of nissans, but SR20DE/T's are their specialty (FWD more specificly). I know someone who owns a 240sx built by JGY and he seems to be very pleased with it.

uhh, no. Do some checking and you will understand my reasoning for saying that.

welcome to the site though. just dont make any stupid posts and be sure to have a thick skin and dont take anything said on here to heart.




hmm...I prolly know them

I got a 240sx project and I`m looking to find some local people that are in the know . Things like who is the local parts whore , when you can`t find it in the valley who to call next , things like that . Name is Joey , feel free to pop in and say hi .
