Project S14 240sx
I had one just like this one a few years ago, before I got my DSM and loved it, but it died a very unfortunate death. Black ice is a real killer.
So tonight I just picked up another '95 240sx. It needs a little work, but it's nothing I can't handle. It's got 114k miles on the clock, but the speedometer isn't connected, so I'm unsure of actual mileage but other than very minor hail damage the body is about 90% perfect. The problems to be fixed: Speedometer doesn't work Missing trunk panels and a couple center console trim pieces CEL is on, He told me that the MAF probably needs to be cleaned questionable wiring under the hood Power steering reservoir leaks Grille is missing Exhaust leak at downpipe/midpipe junction The back of the hood is propped up like all the drifters do The trunk doesn't quite line up Front bumper is zip tied on Suede headliner needs repair Windshield wiper motor and wiper arms were removed for some odd reason Mods the car already has: Megan racing header unknown midpipe that has a resonator HKS Hi-Power 4" catback Stance coilovers Unknown brand short ram intake Welded diff Upgraded tie rod ends Some kind of Lexus wheels I'll post up pics tomorrow, it was too dark to take any by the time I got it home.

Re: Project S14 240sx
I remember looking at this one when I was considering an s-chassis. Nice buy!!!

Re: Project S14 240sx
was he drifting with it?
|
Re: Project S14 240sx
nice just like the old one I remember, time to get some jdm parts and a rb25 in there :)
|
Re: Project S14 240sx
very nice! we also got a S14 project but it's been sitting and waiting for an SR20det for 5 years :(. What are your plans for it? I still got a dream list for it also. These cars are definitely pretty easy to work on.

Re: Project S14 240sx
Call me weird, but I like the CA18DET swap :D
|
Re: Project S14 240sx
RB25det + 350Z rear + 350z front/rear brake assembly + TEIN coilovers ....oh...there is so much more on that list I don't even want to think about it!

Re: Project S14 240sx
Hows it drive with that welded diff? :)
|
Re: Project S14 240sx
Swapping 240s is dumb if you're just going to use another 4cyl. turbo KAs work GREAT.
|
Re: Project S14 240sx
Nice, what's your plans for it?
|
Re: Project S14 240sx
Drift king!

Re: Project S14 240sx
Awesome, happy to hear u got this I know you have been wanting one for a bit.
Lsx swap it. |
Re: Project S14 240sx
"Equipped to drift" woot!
I like these cars, will you let me drive it sometime? Turbo it! |

Looks pretty nice! Can't wait to see what you do with it. |
Re: Project S14 240sx
N/A 4 banger with a 4" exhaust, lmao. I hope that just means the tip.

Re: Project S14 240sx
Yeah, the kid drifted with it. He said he went to 5 or 6 events last summer, I don't plan on drifting it. I'll kick the back end around every now and then for fun, but I probably won't go to a drift day with it.
My plans for the car are to just get everything fixed with it and drive it for now, but eventually I'll be getting a t3 housing for the GT30R I already have and putting that on the KA, with supporting mods of course. If the KA ever blows, then who knows what I'll do with it. Hell, even a wideblock 2.4 is an option ;) The car doesn't do too bad with the welded diff, but tight corners definitely suck. That will be getting swapped out for an LSD sometime soon. Upgraded brakes are definitely on the list too. Those stock brakes are fucking TINY! I'm not sure what I'll go with, probably Z32 aluminum caliper setup, or maybe R33 Skyline brakes if I can find a set for a decent price. |

Re: Project S14 240sx
MAD JDM Yo! hahahaha
|
Re: Project S14 240sx
I am more jdm damn it :) lol
you are not allowed to take it from me |
Re: Project S14 240sx
Is that a challenge? hahaha I've got a long way to go to catch up with all the JDMness of your Evo
|
Re: Project S14 240sx
yes it is. It will be up on jacks soon in are garage waiting on a s15 front clip and a rb25 and a gt 4202 ;)
|
Re: Project S14 240sx
Rhd s14 240sx....then some crazy jdm motor (rb25det *cough*), then you and mark can have a jdm off hahaha
Or do a nice 97 kouki front end conversion, as long as they're done right, they look bomb. |
Re: Project S14 240sx
Haha RHD and an RB25 would be badass, but they're so expensive, and if it blows I'd be fuckt. A Kouki front end would be pretty sweet though, might consider it if I find a deal on one.
|
Re: Project S14 240sx
2jz it.
But it's no drifter til you got them stretched tiressss + low offset on there. :) |
Re: Project S14 240sx
Wide wheels are useless if you stretch skinny tires onto them. That's the most retarded concept I've ever seen, and will absolutely not be happening on this car. I'll put my summer tires and wheels on it this spring and see how it looks. a 17x8 wheel with a 35 offset shouldn't look too terrible.
|
Re: Project S14 240sx
At least staggered the wheels? Some fat rear tires would make it look like beast. 97-98 tail lights would look awesome with it. Also the OEM front lip with OEM fogs if it doesn't have it.
|
Re: Project S14 240sx
I hear to do a JDM drift, all you gotta do is kick the clutch, hold the e-brake and you're in the JDM drift...DORIFTOOOH!
|
Re: Project S14 240sx
Nice!!
|
Re: Project S14 240sx
Looking good! Can't wait to see it in action!
|
Re: Project S14 240sx
This mean you are getting rid of the dsm?

Re: Project S14 240sx

I officially dubbed Kevin as DK last night at Old Chicago. It brings a tear to my eye.

Re: Project S14 240sx
Staggered wheels might be in the future, depends if a good deal comes along. Same with the 97-98 front end. It's something I'd like to do eventually, but there's no rush on it. As far as the tail lights, on my last 240 I just tinted them and they looked pretty sick, so that's what I'll be doing with this one too.
And yeah, the DSM is up for sale again. I'm just about to go out and snap some pics of it, so I'll post em up when I get back. |
Re: Project S14 240sx
Lets go whip some shitties!
