I bought my 240z when i was 13 and has been my little project ever sense, but then about a year ago i found my sx.

it didn't come with a transmission or ecu so i found myself a w58 for now and for a ecu I'm going with a AEM V2.
Right after i bought the motor i went and got a lot of parts from driftmotion.

I bought more parts like a water pump, timing belt, lightened pulleys, new slave cylinder and some other stuff i just forgot to take pictures of all of it.
