Hey everyone... I'm Joe... I currently drive a 92 Lexus SC300 with a 1JZGTE 2.5 twin turbo swap, a 91 MR2, and a few other things not really worthy of mentioning. I've always wanted to do a certain 240 project, and today I was at a carshow and the desire to do this project kind of turned into my new obsession. So, I will soon be posting a lot more here. Talk to you guys on the boards

Hey Everybody!

I'm a huge Nissan fan and spend most of my days trying to sell my current car just so I can have another Nissan of some sort. I'm currently active on other forums such as FreshAlloy, NICO, TwinTurbo.net, and AudiWorld. I joined up here to occasionally offer some helpful Z32 based information if ever needed, but mostly to browse the information that I find important to my own pursuits, such as my dream to build a Nissan based mid-engined kit car.

I have been working for the US Army as a civilian for the past 4 years or so with an engineering team that specializes in rapid development. I operate and maintain 8 different rapid prototyping machines as well as provide mechanical support when it applies to a project.

I do most of my vehicle work and I'm typically not affraid to take stuff apart and put it back together. I really want to learn how to tig weld so I could do some custom fabrication and other cool stuff. The reason I dont have my Z anymore is because I had to sell it as it was the only thing I had worth enough money to help me with some very unexpected moving expenses. The car was later totalled by its new owner 4 months later, not his fault though.

Anyhow I hope my experience works out well here and I look forward to absorbing much information, thanks for letting me be a mooch!

We'll Atif here...just picked me up a 1995 Nissan 240SX. Its a bone stock interior and engine. Has new paint, rims, body kit. I will post pictures here soon. But thought I'd say whatsup and I have been doing tons of searching. Lots of stuff to get your mind caught up.

I also own a 97 Prelude completely sponsored(but trying to get rid of) due to the name, a 2000 Acura RL sitting on dubs, and a 2003 Nissan Maxima that I also just bought.

Just chiming in and saying hello for first time. I finally joined after months of being a "guest". I've had my '92 240sx for about 3 years now. After changing in a couple new parts, I want to start an engine rebuild and maybe turbo down the line. That's about it. Hopefully, I can make my stay worthwhile.

hello,
my name is Russ. 20 years old and I joined yesterday, trying to find some answers. I am a member of the USAF and i am currently stationed in Japan. Here, I drive a kouki s14 with way too many mods to keep up with. i love to drift the shit out of it since a new track just open not to far from the base. In the states i drive a 2nd gen rx-7. i am a rotorhead at heart. pistons are still the devil to me. hopefully this silvia will change my mind.

s13 Hello Everybody

I'm new here, I joined to refer to when I have questions during the build. I own a 1992 SE Coupe. The car originally was an automatic, but a friend and I converted it to manual as well as upgraded to Nismo motor and transmission mounts. I like the car so far. He owned it, sold it to somebody else, and I now own it and have full intention to build it up tastefully I've had a couple projects that I have tried to piece together due to not having a lot of money to drop in a car. I'm going to save up on this one and do it right(the first time.) Coming from a hatchback civic to this 240 is crazy. It feels great to own a nissan and I know I sound like a moron and i'm rambling so i guess i'll call it a night.

p.s. lets have some bumps from the NC members! w00t
