Hey everyone,

I race rally and I always keep my eyes open for other forms of automotive competition. I really like how accessible and youthfull drifting is. I went to a few practice sessions and sat in a friends car (Adams Kart track).

I am tottaly interested and I think drifting will help me maintain some mojo in between rally events.

Now I need to trade atleast one of my cars for a RWD. Anyone?

Hello all!
I've only just bought myself a clean little white '89 s13 hatch, stock with bouncy castle (read: blown) suspension and some hacked up exhaust from a Tiberon. The wheels on it were horrible, black/polished Drag wheels, with super skinny tires on the front. The body is pretty straight, has been stock all it's life. Has the KA24E with 200k miles, but still pulls strong. Well maintained and clean engine bay. Parts that are on the way to fix it up include but are not limited to:

Stance GR+ Coilovers
HKS Catback Exhaust
XXR513s (Thanks to Travis/Zilvia)
Kouki Taillights
Clutch of some sort.

So far, looking forward to the project road I have ahead of me. Hopefully I can get this thing tagged. Any tips for getting the thing through the emission test? haha

My other car is an 08 350z that I'm about to take a break from modding while this project takes over.

Hey guys, Tom here.

For so long I have worked on Nissans mainly RB's and a few SR's either working for or with friends on their cars anything from maintainence to engine installs.

I finally found a bone stock unmolested 90' coupe, which I have been doing an S14 SR swap over the winter now.
I will post up pictures when all done.

Best thing about these cars is there is soooo much room to play with, I love it!

I just have to say this is the best S chassis forum I have been on, glad to be a part of it.

Hi All,

Please allow me to introduce myself; as my nick indicates I have 1992 SE (Fastback). I've haven't done a whole lot of modification to it, just the basic bolt on stuff: Koni dampers + GC/Eibach collars/springs, intake, header, and exhaust. Most of my time on the car is spent trying to keep it running well, so an engine swap of some sort may be in the cards. Too bad living in the boonies on an island in the middle of the pacific makes it somewhat more difficult to do.

Since I'm a noob, I'll be sure to search first before posting anything, this is a great resource/community.

Hey, I'm Clay

I'm currently enrolled at the University of Cincinnati as a Transportation Design student. I'm driving an auto-tragic 1999 Maxima GLE with some mods, but I'm selling it soon and looking for a 240sx. Hopefully I can pick up a nice example and contribute to the site.

I am a toyota convert- had a supercharged 99 toyota solara and was rear ended, so the car ended up being totaled. Decided to try something new and picked up a 93 SR swapped hatch. It needs a lot of TLC to get up to where I want it, but a lot of the work is under way and most of the parts are either here or on the way.

You can check out pics of both of my rides in my albums on here- love the site so far, looking forward to making my car legit

Hey all

Name's Evan. I'm new on Zilvia, but not to the s chassis scene. I've been going to the Clubloose events in Englishtown for a couple years now.

My track car is an sr-powered coupe, complete w/ all the requisite bolt-ons for drifting; coilovers, diff, exhaust, clutch/flywheel, etc... It's pretty ugly, but I'm about to get some bodywork done for purple gangster status. Also have an s14 that was gonna be a badass Corvette killer, but probably I'munna sell it for tires instead lol

Hello my name is Frankie. I used to be a Honda guy and got outa that scene since I love drifting. Bought myself an S13 and never looked back.

Right now im working on my suspension and currently have stance coilovers and rear upper camber adjusters. This car is getting there little by little but its a fun car to drive.

s13

The place: Southern California

The name: Josh

The car (zips up flamesuit): Modded 1994 i4 Toyota Camry (A/T)

The story: Lives at home, goes to college, works in retail, and loves working on cars.

The problem(s): 2-3 months after buying the Camry I realized I need something turbocharged. My uncle helped me buy this thing and I still owe him money to pay it off. Camry's don't come with stock turbochargers. Becoming very knowledgable about Camry's and finding out turbocharging what I have is both emissions-illegal and pricey. Camrys are wonderful for daily driving but are 3300 lbs, FWD, and A/T.

The solution: Saving up $, paying off my uncle AND...

DUN DUN DUN!

Purchasing a Nissan 240sx W/sr20det

....coupe

I look forward to undertaking the start of this journey in the coming months.

Nice to meet ya'll

Hey, im brand spankn new! Like almost everyone here i need a bit of help. I have a 1990 nissan 240sx with 120,000 miles. My father mostly drove the car on the highway to work n back... I recently jacked the car 4rm him...jk... and i noticed that when the car is idling it tends to shake... I was thinking it had something to do with the mounts but im not the expert. Also I was wondering what i can do about the rust on the frame (i live in chicago... snow n salt). I hope one of you pros can give me some advice.. THANX!!!

How rude of me... The names Michael... I own a 1990 nissan 240sx... nothn much done pretty much stock.. live in chicago.. electrician apprentice.. Im loving this community, very informative and friendly! Just bought a s14 swap... lookn forward to getting the work done in the summer, still shopping around for parts. Would like to keep my current engine running smooth until then.
