Well this is my first post on here or any forum and im new to making build threads but i have read a lot of them so ill do my best.
And also this is my friends 240sx. Im just helping him work on it till i go off to college.

My friend bought his first 240sx about three weeks ago for $700. The only major thing is the rod knock so he plans on getting another ka24de and building it up. It also has tipical paint damage, cracked dash, and bad carpet and some other things i cant think of as of now. We have taken the seats and all the pilars so he can redo them. Ill post pictures tomorrow. I just hope we get it running and kinda decent to take to Import Allance in July which should be interesting.

I just made my account today, I'm the owner of this build and what my friend failed to mention was I'm not worried about the rod knock because I'm looking for a different engine.
