What's up guys,

I'm pretty new to the site and also pretty new to the 240 scene but am pretty excited to build my first. I contacted a local Los Angeles shop, Team Clockwork Performance, and so far they are awesome. The owner has great service, great prices and the time frame in which the car is expected to be done is phenomenal.

So this is my 240 as of now and I will post more pics as progress continues.

Future plans once the RHD and SR20 swap is done?

I the C-list ad for this, good thing they got it to a good home.

Just planning on making it a drift/street legal car. I'm moving to Hawaii sometime soon so I'm not sure how the scene is down there, other than that I've got a little more work I'd like to get done to the engine. As for exterior, I'm thinking 18x9 in front 18x12 in rear, 3pc work meister wheels with a wide body kit(origin 30mm fenders, 50mm quarter panels).

Not really sure on what I really want to do but that's my idea so far for it.

Seems like a legit plan! The car scene in Hawaii is tight! A lot of nice cars and its a nice area too. You don't have to worry about cops harassing you for the most part.

I can't wait till you start getting those updates coming!

Team Clockwork just got the silvia front end delivered so I posted some pictures. Once the work is underway I'll post some more.

If you see anything you think that can make my 240 look cleaner, feel free to speak up ;]
