Cool oh noes! an import owner!

Whats up guys? My name is Joe I own a 1997 Nissan 240sx SE with a R33 Skyline engine (rb25det). So you may ask what am i doing here? Well a thread in the swaps forum caught my attention and i figured it would be a good idea to learn everything i can about the engine that might be going in my car

little about myself: 22 years old, live in tucson az, I work at a small performance shop doing sales/installs. we work on everything. import, domestic, car, truck, suv, racecar, even built some racing karts. Ive been road racing since about 02 and drifting since late 03. cars are a huge portion of my life. i dont care who makes it so long as it goes fast and dosent look stupid (see: body kits, wings, altezza's, etc).

anyway heres a few pics of the pig

very good looking, I used to have a crx with a supercharger running 12#'s and it looked stock even down to the rims. talk about sleeper, it was so much fun, and got 30+ mpg.

Man, I love drifting! Too bad I can hardly get my car to go strait down a track let alone slide around a corner.

NICE CAR!

Have you had to do any steering mods.?
