hey guys,

I havent posted up here in a long time, thought i would throw up some pics and re introdruce myself. I use to own a 1992 240sx hatch but sold it july 2010 to go to school at ohio state. after transfering home because of some bs with classes being acceptted from my JC, i decided it was time to get something to zip around in besides my baby tacoma. Story of my Z, i picked it up from some pothead in santa rosa who had it for 6 months and bought it from the original owner. The previous owner had all maintence records including the window sticker and brochure for the Z. after about 2 months of driving it, the front bumper was hit by a corporate bus while i was in the car. this allowed me to acquire a twin turbo bumper and have it painted to match..looks much better. then the usual. wheels, coilovers, arms, exhaust and intake. here are some pics of my 240sx and my new z that i acquired completely stock back in may and how it sits today.

Looking clean! Sucks that it got hit, but at least you got a TT fascia out of it!

Tires are 235/40F 265/35 rear. running 3.1 degrees of camber in the rear. had to roll the fenders and cut out the mounting bracket for the rear bumper on each side. used self tapping screws about an inch back from the bracket to keep the bumper from sagging. it rubs slightly on the passenger side...i think im about a half turn lower on that corner :-/ thinking about following the news paper pull write up articdragon did
