Default New, with my ls1 swapped 240sx drift car!

Just thought I would finally introduce myself.
I used the forums here quite a bit while researching how to do the swap but have not done much posting.
Im 20 years old, and live in Colorado.
This is my 95 Nissan 240sx that i swapped a ls1 into!
I love this thing, it is primarily going to be used for drifting and cruising around to a few local car meets.
I am still trying to find some time to make a build thread, i have plenty of pictures, and most of the build is on my youtube channel.
The car is currently still in project mode, awaiting the transmission to get rebuilt, and a paint job, all of which i will be doing myself.

Anyway, here is my car!

It snowed today in Colorado and I made a quick video playing in the snow,

Welcome!

Love the car! I've got an s14 sitting in my garage. Debating on swapping a ls2/3 into it, but CA smog laws do not make it easy.

Thanks guys!
The ls1 was the best thing I ever did for drifting.
This was my first year drifting, and i rebuilt my ka24de-t 4 times THIS SEASON. Got fed up and parked that car, found this s14 shell, and got a good deal on a complete running ls1 t56 camaro, and swapped it in and finished the seasons last 2 events with the ls1, I just love all the torque, and not having to rebuilt the damn motor every other event lol

Id like a bigger cam, maybe some head work, and a ls6 intake manifold, and a tune for next season.


O and btw I have a Improved racing oil baffle kit to control the oil

Check out the difference installed this gto pan!

Thats a really nice piece. For the swap, did you use Sikky parts or did you make your own?

All those other parts I might be able to help you with!

I ended up using some mounts a guy makes and sells on ebay, i had to modify them a bit to get them to work with my c6 corvette exhaust manifolds.
I checked out your website, ill keep you in mind when i go to order some new stuff, and im always looking for sponsors
