Default raced 240sx with rb25det skyline swap

Well I was cruising from work yesterday night. I pull up to a red light and notice a 240sx looked like a 90's model, it kinda had a loud whistle turbo like sound to it along with a burble in the exhaust note. He threw me a rev with a loud blow off valve screaming. I thought to myself its ON as i threw him a loud deep muscle car rev. We take off on the green, I can tell he is having traction problems as i am too. HE finally gets traction a lil bit after i have put 3 cars on him, I hear him hitting boost over my cars screaming ls1 , he starts to pull instantly past me till about 100 where he had atleast 2 full car lengths on me. I signaled him over to a gas station where i asked if he had a sr20det swap and he replied with no and i asked wat then, he goes its a skyline swap , i go so its got 250hp or sumshit he replies with no ive added a bigger turbo charger t-78 i believe and some other goodies . He popped the hood and low behold it said skyline 2500 turbocharged intercooled on the valvecover. I asked him would he wanna race when i get a bigger cam and the spray on the car and maybe tape that one, he said yes so it looks like payback time is gonna come. all in all he was a cool guy

Hey nice death.

Personally thats a nice swap for a 240. I don't like Skyline's, they look great but their AWD, well in my opinion sucks. Go get a 150 shot and run him again. Running into nice guys though especially with imports is amazing. I have met a few, and I stress a few.

90% of the time the guys with the fast imports are nice. It's the ones that are "all show, no go" that are always the retards.
