Whats Going On!?

What's up everyone, I am a tampa florida newly converted 240 fan. Pops finally came threw and got me a car that I can be proud to have and work on.

I will be on alot checking out posts and information about doing a s14 or s15 conversion to my 1991 240sx.

Any suggestions?

Is the s15 swap getting played out? is it too much work or money?

Is the s15 front end conversion also too much work and money?

Should i just go s14 front end conversion and s15 engine and go from there?

Anyone that wants to give me some help here i got a list of items I want to purchase with my pretty hefty tax return I am getting back. give me a hollar.

starting with front conversion ( s14 or 15 )
remaining kit ( preferably polyurethane )
Deep dish rims
suspension
interior

then the s15 swap.

everything else can come along in between.






By the way, any of you that are interested in getting dsl.. ( we got a free wireless router promo going on ) shoot me a message and let me know...... shameless plug but I couldn't pass it up.

The S15 front conversion isnt exactly played out...well kinda but not really since its so damn expensive to have a great fitting one.

The S15 conversion can cost you anywhere from 3k-5k...matters on how good the parts/fitment is and how good of a paint job you get.

The choice is yours...do what is in your budget and what you like

Personally I would do suspension first and get used to the car...then do everything else. The S15 SR swap is a hell of a swap...it will run you at least...6k-8k. So if you have that much money go for it. BTW, what is this car going to be used for? Sounds like a show car to me

im not going to go all ***** to the walls show...it's more for street racing and deffinately for drifting ( apparently i was notified theres drift sessions starting to come around in tampa )... so i want to make it sturdy and reliable and fast but at the same time add a little style added to it.

im going to have about 4g's coming back so i just want to get some ideas from people already into the 240 passion and get some opinions.

thanks for the welcome
