miami lakes, near american high, right above the palmetto.. 186th st and ludlam.

where abouts do they meet at, and do you know if there is a big nissan following in general?

i have a few friends who are maxima crazy.. a few z32's as well..

well we are down at 137 ave and sw 8 st, there is quite a few nissans but its spread out really nice between mustangs, camaros, wrxs , evos, and of course the hondas but there are quite a few fast ones . there are a lot of nissan pepole though mostly s14s, like two weeks ago there were 5 s14's , 4 s13's like 2 350z's with nitrous, and about 6 sentras, we were out in full force , i live right around sunset and 137 ave, one of my friends a few blocks away is building a s13 kat with 62-1 turbonetics and his brother is doing an s14 with sr swap. we got quite a few people around but the hondas sure do out number us like 10 - 1 but yea down here every tuesday, thursday, friday, saturday and sometimes even sunday afternoon it is very common to find races (illegal of course) with a good 20- 30 cars, hell one saturady a bout 8 months ago we had 70 cars at a site. its pretty fun.

im doing all of the work myself, i dont know why i got myself into this..

she got one of those really rice like body kits.. it came all damaged from ebay, so i have to fix that too.beware ebay bodykits.. OVERNITE shipping doesnt take care of their customers :(


she smashed her front end, lights, bumper, driver side fender, no mechanical damage though. have to get a body kit for some reason :jerkit:

i dont currently drive a 240, i am in the market... i think im leaning towards a coupe, early 90's... im far more into s13's

i went through a bad finacial situation recently :down: so now im in the market for something cheaper than im used to.

get a 91 -94 theyre better in case you want an sr swap, less crap to change, my family owns a couple of junkyards ill turn over some rocks maybe we can find ya one.

awesome, ive researched out a lot of the information on the swap.. i know i need to get the 91-94 because of the dual cam set up, but for some reason, sr just doesnt seem to be that much of a god to me.. i think i would rather boost a ka.

secret services, i dont know if you have heard of them, they are in tampa.. its a pretty good resource for nissans. they have quite a few veryyyy nice silvia's.

ive heard of a z shop down here.. but i dont know anything about them.. your family has junkyards.. i'd love to take a trip sometime and check out what they have.

the reason i went sr is simple bang for the buck, the sr is super cheap to do, you can get an sr with fmic 3 inch exhuast and all for less than you can turbo the ka if you do all the work your self, and you have the reliabilty of a factory turbo charged car.

my car is boosting 14 lbs on the stock turbo , i have fmic 3 inch dp , 3 inch exhaust greddy profec b , walboro fp , nismo regulator , electric fans, r34 gtr wheels and the s14. everything there cost me 4850.00 including the car, which i bought with a bad engine. the swap only cost me 1900.00 including all the aftermarket parts. and the car cost me 1800.00. my friend boosting the ka spent 1200.00 on just the turbo and manifold alone, nothing else. hes got likr 3000.00 invested in just his turbo kit , thats almost what i payed for my entire car engine and all,

not to try and talk you out of it just soemthing to think about, i can help with the install. and wiring as i did all my self .

hmm i'd like to hear more if you dont mind.

nothing is set in stone except for me getting a 240. im looking for lower 400 hp and torque around there as well, after that ill be pretty satisfied hp wise. as far as my daily driver :coold:

always looking for advice and knowledge, tell me all!
