Land Speed 240SX Build Thread

Hi everyone,

Since I've been "lurking" on this forum since '04, I figured it was time I actually create my first thread. I'm currently building an S13 hatch with the goals of joining the Bonneville 200 mph club and breaking the SCTA blown gas coupe (BGC) "G" class record.



I first went to Bonneville a few years back in my SR20DET powered 1988 Sentra to join the USFRA 130 and 150 mph clubs. After battling the weather for two years I was finally able to get the job done.



Here's a you tube clip below of my 159 MPH run. Skip ahead in the video. Unfortunately, I didn't have any video editing software back then.

Ever since, I've been wanting to go back to conquer the 200 mph club but this time in my S13 hatch. I couldn't bring myself to tear apart my street driven S13 so I ended up buying another hatch.

Update 4/24/12:

For those of you wanting to read more in depth on the project click here for some detailed articles. Thanks!
