Joe, im sure any job is better than the one i have now. At least i'd be around cars, B&W and color printing is BORING.
hmm why is it so gay...

well for me, theres not much to do. the nearest road course is 2 hours away (phoenix), the jobs here are underpaying, there is no ****ing freeway through tucson so traffic is horrible, the people are old or stupid or old and stupid, theres no good shop with a dyno and tuner, theres no god damn road courses!

Kray, it was picture shy because there were no events haha. and im sure blair dosent mind i think that was actually the last time he was drifting anyway lol. his poor car..

I love long walks on the beach.... sike, I love nissans really all fast cars but mostly nissans. Ive been driving my blue sr20 s14 since 97 (most of you were in elementry school lol) damn it's been 9 years since I did my first sr swap.... I also bought 2 rb25's a couple weeks before my blue car was featured in import tuner in 2002 but because of getting married chiropractic school and 2 kids and what ever else plus not having a job I have just had to suffer letting them sit tell 2 weeks ago just after christmas when i dropped my rb25det into my second s14. I love to see the 240sx community grow, all the different swaps just go to show what an awesome platform the s-chassis really is.
Hey Jex...you are from Garland....which area? Love to come by and take a look at you s14. I am doing the s14 swap also and really need help on the wiring before she can run.

Im brent, 20, i live in ann arobr MI. I go to school at eastern michigan for the rest of the year, but eastern kinda sucks so i was accepted into UofM and plan on going next year. I am also the inventory manager at a heating and cooling company.before my 240 i had a 98 integra gsr. JDM front, built bottom end, turbo'ed, last i heard it made 387whp on pump gas and high 400s on race gasI miss that car more than anything else. for some reason i sold it and bought my 240, swaped in an rb25de, turboed it, and it now has a blown headgasket. I hate this car personally, but im trying to find a new liking for it since i just bought an Rb25det longblock to replace the blown DE block, and i am re-doing the whole car. maybe i wont hate it when im done.

My name is Matt (hi matt) and I'm an alcoholic (yaaaay). jk I'm 26, from Minnesota but now live in Iowa after going to school at Iowa State. I got my masters a couple years ago in civil/environmental engineering and work for the top firm in Iowa.

I'm working on getting the RB25DET into shape and have everything done except the wiring and some extras on the 240 (GT Spec and Whiteline sway bar). Here's a link if you're interested. I wish I wasn't retarded so i could post the pics in the thread. Don't you just put the URL of the image between the IMG things?

Nice numbers from the integra btw! I used to have a '91 until I sold it to a Somali for $500

My Name is Andwele or just Andy for short. Just turned 30 and reding my Rb20 swap into a S14 since my S13 got hit. Doing major upgrades to be the 2.0 champ lol. I work as a Telephone contractor at the moment. I live in Socali but working in South Florida at the moment. Look for some big things from my car in 06. The "waste of a space 2.0" is going to have some pretty cool stuff under the hood. Ohh this is my 4th nissan and 2nd 240. Doing a SR20VE powered B13 SE-R soon, Just need to find the SE-R since I already have the SR20VE

Hey vg33t, i am glad that someone is on the same boat. Are you doing the s14 or s13 swap? Actually, i found out that i am running into more problems than just the engine a/t control input signal wires....but also the crankshaft sensor wire(pink) that hook up to the transmission. But on the rb auto-transmission it doesn't had it! I guess it should still fire up even the crankshaft sensor doesn't hook up right? Guess it should be the same as the a/t control unit wires. Let me know how it go on your. I would be appreciate very...very much bro. Email me @ [email protected] and we can talk more about it or post a new topic since this post here is for (YEAH, WHO ARE YOU?!) and we sure don't want KAMIN or other members getting on our asses!!!!!

Start up a new thread for this as it's off topic for this one and I'm sure you'll get more responses including one from me.

Seems I am the resident old fart on this thread.

Scott Buwalda (in case my username threw you off). 35 years old. Owner and founder of a high-end speaker manufacturing company, Hybrid Audio Technologies ( http://www.hybrid-audio.com ). We'll be producing our first line of speakers in the next three to four months.

I am a Nissan freak. First car was a Sentra in 1986. I currently own two S14's: one blue S14.5/RB26DETT and a red S14a with a planned big horsepower KA-T (sponsored by eBay as their project car). Pics are at http://www.buwaldahybrids.com.

I do all of my own work: welding, body work, custom installation, electrical, motor work, suspension---you name it. I am a true DIYer with some pretty killer friends (http://buwaldahybrids.com/install_team.htm) and have only had the need to seek outside help from Top Hat Performance for a few odds and ends, and a pro painter after I had done all the body work on the blue car (I don't have a paint booth, otherwise, I'd do it).

My S14's will be at the major events this season: D1 Drift, NOPI, Daytona Spring Break Nationals, etc.

I'm Blaine, 27 years old. Current project is a 95 240sx I am putting a RB25 into(currently on hold due to school, family, and money) I also am finishing my Bobcat so that I can build a moto cross track with some friends. Hopefully I'll also clear part of my land and build another larger garage for all of the projects. I graduate from GA Tech at this summer.

My name is Matt and I'm almost 27 and originally from MN. Went to school at Iowa State, got my BS and MS in civil engineering and got a job in Ames. Right now just learning and getting some experience before moving south with the girilfriend. And no neither of the girls in the pic are my gf. One is my friend (left) and the other is her friend who I don't know at all. This is the only pic I have of myself on my computer at work so...I put on the "stalker face" in the background. And yes I'm wasted but hiding it well. The current state of the project...

Is that your motor smoking or is it a peg-legged burnout?
