I just thought I'd introduce myself, and my baby. Her name is Kairi, and she's a 95' 240sx. I received her in high school as my first car/daily driver. Along side my father we've worked on the car for a couple years to get her where she is now. I don't know much about the actual mechanical inner-workings of cars and because of that I've been afraid to work on the car myself (also due to the fact that it is my only means of transportation to and from school) She has ~250-260,XXX miles on the clock, both original chassis and engine. I hope with NICO that I could learn more about my car + other Nissans, and meet new people who share the same passion for cars that I do. Now enough of me babbling, on to the pics! :biggrin:

Coilovers, Radiator, Short-ram intake, 5-lug conversion, and besides that not much else besides general maintenance over the past couple of years. Current plans are for OEM style aero, rear valence, side skirts and maybe an SE lip. As I'm gathering those parts up, going to do body work as much as possible in preparation for paint. I'm also thinking about an exhaust, but I want something legal that isn't too loud but just has a nice deep exhaust note.

Welcome to NICO! Loving the meaty tire look you got going on there! Never seen those dinky Enkei 92's on an S14 before. Looks good with fat rubber!

Thanks! Makes the ride pretty comfy, and they aren't actually Enkei 92's but they are CSi Series 32, an old 80's-90's TRD option. (Gotta keep it JDM :naughty: )

:rotfl Classic.

A lot of people like the meaty look on my car which is refreshing, thinking about going one size smaller for my next set but still haven't decided. It makes the 16's look a lot bigger than they are :) But expect a more in-depth build thread soon! (Would the appropriate place to post it be here?)
