Hi all 
I just picked up a 92' 240sx SE coupe from an old friend for $600 bucks
It is dark grey and 5spd w/137k miles
The car run's very well
I'll post pics when I get them..

Thanks! Here's a couple pic's
92 240sx se 5spd -
137k miles
HUD won't work
At first my buddy wanted $600 because it would rarely start. Then on Sat it wouldn't start at all. We switched out the starter relay and the starter itself.
Still no start...we could pop the clutch and start it, but that suck's. We decided to remove the alarm entirely, reconnect everything back up and it fires right up now.
The car runs and drives good! Pulls hard even with the a/c running full blast. It has stiff KYB struts too. New radiator
Final price $300
The interior cleaned up ok..but the seats,carpet,steering wheel are crap. There's one small crack in the dash
Changed the oil and replaced the airbox w/non broken one. Spent some time detailing the engine bay as well.
Here's the alarm we took out. What a piece of crap
Near future items-
Tein springs
CAI
paint
exhaust/header
wheels

I'm going to have to find new seat's, these are trashed...
What's the easiest/cheapest engine management route, if I go turbo? I've read about the JWT ecu, but I couldn't find details and pricing.
Thanks

Thanks!
Just spoke with JWT..
This is what I'd like to do-
JWT ECU upgrade
300zx tt injectors
300zx tt fuel pump
Mitsu 12A td05 (325cfm@10psi)
Starion intercooler
RRE intercooler tubing
Starion oil cooler
Should be hella fun...
Just need to figure out what to do about
turbo manifold
turbo water lines
turbo oil lines
oil "drainback" to pan
turbo downpipe
