Hi everyone, I am new to the 240sx car. In fact I am new to the whole import thing. I am no stranger to cars from being into hotrods for many years and I am in college to become a mechanic. I just felt it was time for me to broaden my mind to other forms of hotrods. I don't own a 240 yet but I am shopping and saving. I want to learn as much about the 240 as I can. Is there any good sources of information to learn from (websites, books, and anything else)? Thank you for any help.

 

NICO CLUB, zilvia.net, here.... there are tons of places. The biggest site for s-chassis' is www.zilvia.net. Make sure you use the search option. You can find pretty much anything you need to know. Coming from hotrods this will be alot different as far as a good setup, the mechanical things stay the same relatively. We usually go for susp and chassis ridgidity first and power later (there are of course exceptions though).

What do you plan for the car? Drag, drift, road race, auto cross, gymkhana, street car, daily grocery getter?

 

yea technically nuts and bolts are nuts and bolts.... i have never built a domestic... but i can learn whatever vital info i need to know inside of a day to build one... so you will be fine... parts are somewhat smaller... more electronics.. thats about it.. we have A LOT of info in house.. whatever you cant find here, Google it and im sure the other 240 sites have info... once big community man....

 

Welcome man. I hope we will seeing you have a 240

 

welcome indeed.

 

Welcomez. Hopefully you find yourself a decent 240. Nowadays it seems they're all either ridiculously expensive or beat to hell and back. Mine is the latter =/
