Hey everybody. I own a black 1991 240SX SE coupe. I have a 93 redtop in it with a koyo rad, greddy FMIC, FAL fans, walbro pump, and a zex nitrous air filter. Its got suspension and brake issues right now that are keepin me from drifting, but they are slowly gettin fixed.

 

Welcome to the forums

 

pics? welcome

 

I am one of the few people who still live in the dark ages. my camera still requires film, and i dont have a way to upload the pictures here. sorry. plus, its nothin special to look at. the paint is fadin, the obligataory dents and scrapes of a 240, and for some reason, the paint on my front bumper has bubbles in it. looks like it has car herpes or somethin. guess thats what i get for ridin peoples butts on the on ramps lol.

haha, car herpes... thats funny. just take your pictures to walmart, and ask them to also give you a picture disk. the paint doesnt have to be perfect for a car to look good.

 

Welcome bro. What are your plans for suspension and brake issues?

 

Plans are to get 26mm z32 brakes up front and keep the 240 brakes in back. doin it that way so i can fit my 7spokes back on the car ( like the sleeper look) and i will be able to fit almost any wheels i want on the back to drift. Im also plannin on swappin the brake mc over to a z32.

As far as suspension, i havent really decided how im gonna do it. i have kyb gr2s on it now, and they are great for daily drivin but i dont think they will handle drifting a lot. ive been lookin into either a megan coilover steup, or gettin a used JIC coilover steup. or possibly gettin some adjustable shocks and lowering springs and callin it a day. any way i go with it, i am gonna get bigger sway bars as well. umm... im sure there is more but i cant think of it.

 

Yeah dont do that.

welcome to the forums!

 

The whole "sleeper" looks only account for highway and drag. As for grip and drift its all about driver skill.

 

found a pic of my car on one of the local car websites so i fugured i would post it up here.
