Exclamation El Paso Nissan club..

Ive been an avid nissan fan for a couple years now, mainly because of the RB swaps Ive undergone. I came to El Paso and attended some local car meets, including the infamous Wednesday night meets, some local shows, etc. I am disturbed by the lack of Nissan attendance. I have 2 swaps that are not complete, but I still show up to let Honda guys know they suck lol. Anybody local to me want to start a group? Im down to help you with mechanical work and lend my novice experience and intermediate sourcing experience to help put Nissan on the map here. These damned STI's, EVO's, and Honda gotta go!!!

Its not a bmw, its an Inifniti M30. I have only heard of 1 guy that has a 240/rb25 swap here but I met a guy earlier this week that has an s13/rb25 project. Where are these other guys at? It seems that a lot of these guys stay low key..

Oh that's right lol :facepalm. Read it wrong. Well that s14 is a zenki,and he's rolling on my old z33 white wheels. The other kouki lives somewhere n socorro/horizon. There's a good amount of 240's out there(not really), but yeah you hardly see them around. Is you're m30 the one you're selling on cg?

If you guys want to check out part of the tuning scene here at El Paso go to leadindustries.org

Im sure its easy but i think you need a press, to get the wheel bearing out.

I found a crashed s14 in sacramento with the 5 lug set up. I havent looked in elpaso.
