new guy in il
hey everyone. im from il, this is the third 240sx ive owned. all s13 and all hatch.
one 89 ls1
and two 91 one auto and another manual.
the auto stayed stock and never drove it until i recently sold it.
the manual came with big ole 3" exhaust, except for that its completely stock.
i threw a isis short throw, kouki tails, and put the stock exhaust back on.
i plan on doing a full tune up on the motor and body (rust needs a fixin)
i fixed all the hatch leaks, and no grinds in tranny.
after everything is made very clean i plan on, 5lug, either stance or tein, 370-350z rims, kaaz 1.5. and super charging. no body kits. and no drifting.
just not my scene. ill have more but those are the basics.
the 240
2001 fatboy
and the love of my life
2008 nissan friten. (frontier)

a little update on the car.
got a few things lined up. removing timing guides, getting all the steel for the sub frame.
thinking about a cage. not sure yet. doing things slow, clean and right.
still needs a lot of tlc before i would drive out to cali. but a few welds and a bunch of 5 dollar parts and she will be stockish and very clean and ready for mods.
oh and the stock cat has some leaks in it. i think someone drilled holes in it to get moar power. so im going to weld in a test pipe. make it sound a little better but not horrible like it used to.

switched out with some super bright leds in my cluster. sorry for the day pics will load others up tonight. switched out with a new head unit.
only thing is i cracked the dash piece a bit in the middle
getting new one soon
and my windshield wipers are not spraying. anyone know why that could be?
didnt even touch the wiper stalk.
but both were pretty easy installs i just hate the dash ****.
