Talking Dream came true...but now its down to work!

Hey everybody, this past Saturday, a dream of mine came true when I finally bought my 1996 240SX (S14). I've waited, and waited, and waited.....and waited....until the time was right!! hehhehe...

Anyways, I've always told myself that when I finally got it, I'd do some style work while I work up to the eventual SR-swap....(I'm sure a lot of you share the same plans.) So I was wondering if you guys could help me answer the following questions:

1) Which is the best repair manual (Bently, Haynes, Chilton, etc)? And where can I find one?

2) Where can I buy Euro-style gauge faces that are the reversed style...(like in Jettas...but blue and red)?

Thanks for all your help in advance! Peace...

:~: Here's me with my new baby:~:

Welcome to the forums and congrats on getting the car

For what your looking for, you could look on ebay for the factory service manual and the gauges. I know the always have the gauges and there is usually a factory service manual on there.

Fantastic score there!

www.importintellegence.com is a good place for gauges.

Hey if you are looking for some other 240s to hang out with we meet up every other weekend.

This is a shot from a couple weeks ago:



Hope to see you around!
