CAR IS OFFICIALLY FOR SALE

http://zilvia.net/f/showthread.php?t=606694


It is to the point of finally making a build thread of my Nissan 1996 240sx SE S14.
Background on the car; I purchased the car the end of April 2014 from its original owner, she bought the car brand new back in 1996 and she made me promise I would take great care of the car lol. Overall plan for the car will be a full LS1 motor swap as well as a Kouki conversion too.

For more up to date photos of the build follow me on Instagram;

Let me know how those spring rates are for the road! I'm going to be ordering shorter swift springs for my FA's but I'm debating between staying with the 8k/10k or stepping it up a little bit. And it's good to see you wisened up and switched the the RWD scene. I came from the euro scene too and I've never looked back. The amount of fun I've had in my 240's is bar none compared to my s4, gli, vr's, everything I've had.

Let me know how those spring rates are for the road! I'm going to be ordering shorter swift springs for my FA's but I'm debating between staying with the 8k/10k or stepping it up a little bit. And it's good to see you wisened up and switched the the RWD scene. I came from the euro scene too and I've never looked back. The amount of fun I've had in my 240's is bar none compared to my s4, gli, vr's, everything I've had.

will do will do, hope to have the car running by the weekend, thats the goal assuming nothing goes wrong of course.

My R32 was a blast though, I did enjoy driving that car and the S4 was fun for the body size but I am excited for the 240 that is for sure

Man, this is funny. Honestly according to my personal preferences I should not like your car, but I love it.

Personality comes out in cars. Even if two people build the same car with the same parts they will be different. So maybe your personality made these things work.

haha I appreciate it dude, thanks

I also do agree with your "thoughts/statement" on two people with different personalities building the same car

Haha. Got a message about this thread and looked back into it to remember that I didn't get to see this full build and now it looks like none of the photos exist anymore. Sad days.

Unfortunately a lot of the links have died, luckily these photos are now popping off of the entire build in high quality, so waiting for them so I can dump them all in here. Exterior, interior, wheels, fenders, engine bay etc so at least these will live on
