Hey guys I'm new to the site, but not to cars and Forums. I am a Moderator over at NICOClub.com I own a 240SX and I am planning on installing an ls1 once my stock KA is shot.

This car is going to be a grip race car, I have brought it to VIR and competed in the lap battle at the Patriot course. I placed 4th in my division.

I am very happy with my currrent suspension setup, but it need to be a little stiffer, currently I have KTS coilovers, SPL RUCAs, SPL Aluminum Subframe Bushings, 300ZX Diff, 300ZX Brakes, and SPL tension rods. I plan on keeping my multilink rear end.

I've been reading up alot on the site, but im not sure what I'm going to be getting myself into. I have experience in custom fab work, and I am sure I will get through it.

Right now I DO NOT have the LS1, I am saving for the swap plus any money that i do not forsee before the swap.

here are a few pics of the car.



... well only 1 for now, the hosting site is being slow, so more to come in the next day.

Thanks for checkin it out.

 

Welcome. Pretty slick car, but I' m not feeling the body kit though, but I also don' t feel ANY body kits. Other than that, it sounds like you have a hell of a setup on it!

 

yeab i forgot to mention the car was totaled when i bought it, salvage title. I purchased the front end and the body kit was actually supposed to be temporary. I will probably stay on until i get the ls1 installed then i will probably buy a stock bumper, with some sort of front underspoiler for some control at the track.

 

Welcome to the site! You will find a great deal of automotive knowledge here, so feel free to ask questions. I love the color of your ride - what is that paint color called?

 

Welcome to the site, and good luck with the swap.

 

I didn' t mean anything bad in my previous statement, I' m sure a lot of people do like it. I' d like to see it with a stock bumper, like you' re considering.

 

Welcome!

 

welcome car looks very nice especially bringing it back from the dead

 

Well here are some more pics, I'm glad you guys like the car, its only going to get better. I've owned it for almost 3 years now and I love the car.

 

hehe the mustang with the imports haha

 

the mustang is a 4 banger w/ an auto, but its in pristine condition

 

it's a 4 banger okay then it still fits in hehe..j/k

 

Ya know, I actually don' t mind that hood and those lights. I' m just not into the aftermarket bumpers like that. If there is a bumper that will accomodate, the hood, lights, and look similar to the factory bumper, that would make a slick car! That blue you used, looks great as well!

 

thanks, the bumper was not readily available 3 years ago when i bought it, now they are commonly available. it was also a bumper that fit in my price range that wasn't really ricey. as for the color it is a factory Acura NSX color, Long Beach Blue Pearl, I was looking at Nassau Blue and Electron Blue, but this color was right in the middle. I really like the color, I get so many compliments on it.

 

N/P. I didn' t realize, that you used Long Beach Blue Pearl. Saw pics of an SS a while back painted that color and it looked BADASS!!

 

welcome, I love the color of you're car
