1991 Nissan 240sx
Its my moms bfs daily driver but bought for me, until he finds another car hes going to give it to me when he does. But in the mean time i'm aloud to do whatever i want to it.
So Far I have an Alarm im putting in it, nothing special just a basic Autopage one.
Plans Within a few months:
-Cold Air Intake probably this month.
-Apexi N1 exhaust, or a knockoff like Chris has.
Pics: Its a little dirty from salt and snow and all...

Its got real potential and the body is one of the straightest stock 240s i think i have ever seen. All the others are either beat to hell, ricered up, or all suped up for racing. But way to luck out on this one man!

haha, it is true that you wont find dual 3" exhaust all the way to the engine in most imports
having said that, it looks really cool nick. Just a suggestion, I know it's on a budget and it's a project car, but don't go too cheap on it. So many guys with Mustangs get screwed over because they won't buy the name brand or they go through ebay etc. I only buy from trusted and well known manufacturers. Yes, it takes longer to get everything you want because everything costs more, but it's so worth it. Also, a good name gives you street cred... at least as far as I know! In my world, if anyone has a kenne bell or whipple supercharger, they know what's up. Anyways, just my 2 cents, and good luck with it!

well For now im sticking with the KA, the only other option is when i do drive, Get a second 240, and gut one out and drop a rb26 if i ever get the cash or an sr20. and drift it. But this is just gonna be a street car, not going to rice it out. never getting a body kit, Possibly a spoiler. rims can wait for a while. If you have any spare parts youd like to sell for cheap, im here for them.. ahah

If you want to drop in an RB I would recommend the RB25 over the RB26. Most motors come as motor/transmission combos since your stock bell housing wouldn't mount up to an RB, nor handle the power. Plus the RB25 is significantly cheaper than the GT-R's RB26 for not much less power. It'd be pretty awesome if you did do a swap like that at some point, either with this one or another.
