Well, without realizing I have had an account for over a year and never posted... or viewed the site since 10/22/2006.... oops. Well, this is my intro post... I have a 1989 240sx and its my little work in progress streetable track car. As of now its still an automatic but I have a 5 speed transmission sitting in my shed that will be going in very shortly after I piece together the rest of the parts.

On with the pictures....

I kinda liked the wiper on my S13 when I had it, was cool to watch it dance around in the rain . . .

Anyhow . . .welcome . . . uhhhh . . . .back? LOL! I'm sure you already know, but the tuna here is AWESOME! HAHAHAHAHA! Don't listen to the others, just try it . . . .Bryan, Battosaii, Ryguy and Big Vinnie have tried it and they can't imagine life without it! LOL!

Okay . . . .got a little carried away there.

Nice S13, reminds me of how cool they look as daily drivers . . . .not over done . . .not underwhelming, just in that happy median.

Nice car!

this is true :(

Well thank you guys for the warm welcome. The tuna part is noted :)


Just realized I forgot to include my future plans so here they are as well:
+ 5 speed swap with 80k mile S14 transmission (OEM Flywheel, ACT 6 puck clutch and stainless braided clutch line are the main specs, you guys know the rest)
+ Energy Suspension full poly bushing kit
+ Coilovers of some sort, still researching heavily on that.
+ Extra wheels + tires for track days and drift events.
+ New bumper, driver front fender, fix dents and repaint factory color with black roof

after that is unknown.

When the exhaust was made, the section of pipe after the resonator was put together at slight angle towards the right so the rear flange was pushed into the differential so I had to get a bend put into the mid pipe, then the rest of the exhaust wouldn't line up so they (the shop I had the exhaust work done at) cut part of the flanges off, re-bent part of the rear pipe, lined everything up and welded it together... so now its a 1 piece exhaust after the cat.... oh and that was $124.10 in labor. So now that I look at it, I could have just went for a tanabe for all of $50 more than my current exhaust + labor, saved the hassle of driving 20 min to this shop and just did the whole install at my house.

Hmmm yeah that pretty much does suck. My ebay exaust fit pretty well.
