I crushed it because I didnt want anyone to ever build that car. I felt like I did it justice the first time but after going through it the second time, it wasnt the same.

RB25 was my second choice but I couldnt pass up the lightweight and the availability of parts.

Love the progression of the build. Hella culture. I really wanted to SR swap my r32 sedan if it blew up. I would imagine it being a lot of fun with the right supporting mods.

Don't necessarily agree with crushing a good shell for any reason that isn't legally mandatory but it isn't mine so whatever.

Pretty much everyone didnt agree with me crushing the car but once I did it, and it sounds really cheesy but, it was liberating. It "broke" the need to build another 240sx.

Got the SR20 tuned and got the hood painted. Had to redo the overfenders since they were cut correctly to allow the wheels to fit properly.

Had my friend Justin (RurouniMidnight) took some pictures of the car that I’ll probably post on my blog so I don’t cluster up this page.

Drifting this weekend then hopefully have a couple practice days before I head off to SuperD in September.

Agree

So went to the drift event and rod knocked the motor first couple of turns. Go to find out that I might have been just “that” much low of oil and the ARC oil pan didn’t have those trap door baffles. No idea how it happened but motor was smoked.

Packed it up, went home and pulled the motor. Went the following Monday or Tuesday and bought a S15 SR20. No more games. If this thing blows up, I either gotta rebuild or just quit at this point.

I’m keeping this motor stock. Just a drop in swap to get me through SuperD and Another event next year. Defiantly not drifting any events next summer in Texas because the heat is getting unbearable.






Also, I picked up another S13. 1 owner, low mileage, sun roof, 5 speed and power everything. I was cruising it last week and over the weekend but clutch fluid is leaking from I believe either the hardline or the dampener. I’ve order a new SS clutch line to replace all that other trash. Register and put the car on my insurance so I know I’m keeping it lol





I already have full Kouki aero and TE’s but I’ve been playing with the idea of just keeping it Zenki for a while. We will see what happens. Trying to wrap up the R32, sell some left over parts and start buying stuff for the S13.

This is pretty stupid. What are you trying to make your life like a Keanu Reeves movie?

I'm glad your SR got rod knock. Karma for crushing a good shell.

Lol I never wish bad things to others, but crushing that shell was kinda selfish.

Y'all still crying about a crushed up cube of a car that's dead and gone. Move on with your lives.

It's not about what you could or couldn't do, it's about what others could have done with it.

I'm not crying, I'm giving my opinion and you don't have to agree with it. Move on with really important moderator stuff.

I am doing my moderator stuff and I'm saying cut it with the guilt over a crushed tin can.

No, you are not doing your moderator stuff. That crushed tin can? It happens to be the reason this thread exists.
And I suppose your responsibility, among other things, is to keep the threads flowing with the proper topic. You are doing the opposite right know. Sadly, your only by-the-book intervention in this case could be closing this thread, not trying to prohibit users to share.

[DJTTon]

Was there something inherently wrong with the chassis of the car that it got crushed? I feel like there is some really good reason that hasnt been stated yet

4 doors are pretty cookie cutter lol not many variations IMO. But 2 doors remind me of S13's so what do I know.

You should sell that ARC oil pan, any collector of abbey road would probably buy despite the setbacks of no trap doors. Then you could use the cash to get a Greddy one which is better insurance for the new motor. They come with the trap doors so you don't have to stress.
