My plans for this car are going to be for track/weekend use but also a really clean look,i plan on doing my suspension first and for under the hood i plan on doing a KA-T for around 270-300hp.

As of right now i am looking to buy a few things for my car already if anyone has hatch carpet im not really pickey about the condition and not really looking to spend alot of money, cf hood, and a cf trunk, also wouldnt mind getting a supermade body kit if anyone has one for sale in good condition but thats all i can think of for know. All comment/sugestion/feedback are welcome and for all the people that are gunna leave negative feedback keep it to yourself cause this is my car and im gunna do what i want with it, if you would like something done to it you can give me money to do it and ill consider doing it. thanks.

This. Builds never finish. They just stall out for a while until you pimp yourself out to enough fat chicks to buy the next part.

Or a rich old lady! Lol

It looks like... a stock 240sx. Half of your "build" is just maintenance. And it looks like your battery is just sitting on the floor.

[sincity_sil80]

clean platform to start with nonetheless. but whats with the taillights??? not my thing but like you said...your car, gl

[sincity_sil80]

o i c ... well gl with the build bro

[iBlaze240]

looks solid but yea like said before, half that build is maintenance...unimportant. and why do you have two batteries? the one in the bay isn't even hooked up. otherwise clean though GL

[bc.]

[S14kouki_10]

[iBlaze240]

[Big Zee]
