Hello,

James here and Ill probably be the second oldest guy here at 51. I had a gorgeous 84 Anniversary Edition 300zx turbo. Ex wrecked and totaled it. This was in 1992, bought myself a brand new 240sx.

Loved that car though it wasnt a 300zx turbo was a fun car. Well fast forward to last year, and the influx of JDM cars coming to the USA. Got myself a 1992 180sx. What a fun car, cant wait to make it better.

Hey there, my name's Jack and I'm a SoCal native.

I currently have a 91 hatch that I daily, it's your run of the mill KA, ol reliable.
- she should be in my signature (if I did that right)

I'm also currently in the process of building my 95 Zenki drift car.
- KA-T, driftknuckles angle, silvers coils, among other cool parts.
On the finishing stretch, just working on the aesthetics and working out minor kinks and bugs. I need a fresh Zenki front, so I'll be looking around for some clean fenders, headlights (w/ brackets), bumper etc. If you'd like to take a look at the "build" head over to @suchslide on ig.

I used to have a Zilvia account like 5 years ago, but made a new one due to it having a lame username (lol). Due to me having trouble finding much help on the facebook forums I'm back here to hopefully learn more and meet some cool people!

what’s good, i’m 17 and worked my ass off for a pretty clean 95 s14. i bought an sr20det, and just started my first swap ever a few days ago. the engine is out, but i’m having major issues with the harness removal. i’d love to help other people out by answering questions, but unfortunately i don’t know enough yet to do so lmao. i like wrenching, making beats, and hanging out with my friends

What’s up everyone just got a rb25 swapped s14 last week here in south Florida.

Car isn’t running perfect but I’ll get it straight.
Seems like the steering rack is done too so gotta replace that.

Glad to be here and I’m sure I’ll see y’all around.

How’s it going, finally got in possession of a clean 98 S14 with 99k original miles. Originally KA but had it swapped to the motor that was meant for the car(SR). Just recently got it back from the shop having it converted to top mount and getting it up and running! Really excited about what’s to come

Hey I'm from California, just got my first 240sx.
Looking to buy a SR20DET in LA Area, currently building to a Koguchi Style build.

I think it's funny to type like an old person on forums.

Have a good one,
Myogi.

Bpc here, had my 95 240 for about a year. Notch top Sr, lots of supporting parts. I totally don't fit in it, but I don't care. I love it, presently dealing with turbo Mani nuts falling out and looking into fabbing a downpipe brace (anyone have pics of theirs?)

Last car was an Evo 8 stroker, loved screwing with litre bikes. I ride Kawasaki concours, daily drive a cr Cummins. Rb26 is in the future, I hope, but I want a DCT trans so bad.

Also I'm an electrician if anyone ever needs a little guidance

Hey Zilvia
Picked up a 92 Silvia Q’s back in feb, she’s sitting just over 100k k/m and is very oem. It’s also my first s-chassis so i’m learning as i go and making it my own at the same time. Took me way too long to register on here but better late than never right.

Zilvia what’s good people,
I’m New to the S chassis and I’m in the middle of purchasing an S13 Silvia K’s. It has the stock CA18DET with a possible spun bearing. The previous owner is offering me a modded rb20det that’s in his Laurel and a bunch of aftermarket parts for 2500 more. I’ve been searching for info on going from CA18 to RB20 here but haven’t been able to find much info... unless I’m just old and searching wrong which I doubt maybe a little. Anyway, anyone from Queens Brooklyn or Long Island on here?

SR I have huge plans!

Ive started a build on a 92' 180sx that I imported last year and it was completely 100% stock and I planned on keeping it that way but I started to get creative and wanted to build it. Im very detailed so this build will be a very clean street/drift build. I probably will never actually drift it at any events because of the fear of wrecking anything. Nothing but the best parts will be put on the car! I have the funds and the fab shop to back me up. Super excited to talk about and source parts off this site! Thank you guys, looking forward to the upcoming on one of the coolest S chassis!
