hey nice story, i had some fun with my 240 this weekend, i love my tq i can leave it in 5th gear on the highway and pass people if i want. i also did a lil autox style driving today and a bike was behind me. i gave him a run for it and then the straight aways he killed me on. fun sheit


as far as the strut tower bar, look at my pic i posted about 5 post up. that bar cost 18 dolllars on ebay and is really thick. I also can feel the effect of it, my steering is more direct with it and my hard turns are even harder now.

ps i also have no powersteering, i fondle wheel very hard

i love my sleepies but that is sexy, also im a big fan of the 300zx so i like that conversion alot. i may go with that because im not doing what the masses are which is jdm s13 and 15 conversions.

I personaly have not seen it on the streets or at car shows.

cool find watch that item so that when u get the money u can ask for the lights again

eeew... well i found out why my exhaust sounds like shiot. The metal collar that connects the pipe coming from the cat with the pipe going to the muffler had a hole the size of my thumb. Got a new collar and welded it up. I went to go weld on my new fart can ( its not a fart can, just a cheap muffler to get me to my new catback goal ) and found out it doesnt like welding, and neither does the stock piping. I tacked it on, and im gonna test fit tomorrow after removing the tow hook. If it fits like i want, im gonna use some muffler wrap at the joint, and use some epoxy to seal it off. Why the hell would nissan put that infernal tow hook there. Thats just dumb.

Bah. I've only seen 1 body mod I'd ever buy (the B-Magic or some **** widebody kit for a convertible). I'm keeping my exterior bone stock, so when I **** it up it won't be a tragedy :P I like the stock look anyway (no OEM spoiler or side skirts either, but the front chin spoiler's ok).
