well, i thought it would be nice if all of us RB guys will get to know each other, and have ways to commune with each other... so i'll start..

I'm Tom, from israel, a ****hole i know, but i hope that next year i'll be in the US (ny, or miami) and stay there

i'm 21 y/o, driving an S14, s15 front end, and an rb26 inside

before i got my nissan, i had an Audi A3 180bhp, Golf V5, BMW 330CI...

meanwhile i'm running my brother's resturant (a japaneese resturant of course), until i'll finish with the S.A.T, Toefl, and all of the other tests i need...

Neil, 25, live in charlotte,nc as my profile says. out of college for the second time (i don't think school is for me) and working fulltime at a print shop. Not really sure what to do with my life at this moment, definitly don't want to be working at said print shop forever. My car, mostly stock rb20, other suspension/brake mods. needs new paint/body work next. Don't let the pic fool you, we all know what 10+ year old nissan paint looks like.aim: Bronze MFPemail [email protected]

I'm Joe. 22 years old, live in tucson arizona (hate it). RB25 + S14 is my track car. 05 titan is my daily. I currently work in the automotive performance field doing sales and installs at a small local shop. we do everything from import to domestic, car, truck, SUV, racecars, even built a couple racing karts. i love what i do but i need to go back to school because this dosent make me enough money unless im owning the shop...

Before nissan's i was a honda head like most of the people here. but ive had my 240 for over 3 years now so i was ahead of the bandwagon

Im Jonathan, Im 20 years old and Im from Huntsville Alabama. I drive a S13 hatch with an RB25, which is probably the worst looking car on the forum. I worked for almost 2 years at ADTRAN testing computer boards and crap but I just recenly quit about 2 weeks ago and am trying to find a new job. Before my 240 Ive only owned a 97 Cavalier which is my beater, and the 240 I bought with a blown more for this swap. It was my first swap, but it turned out alright.

Car has yet to be dyno'd or taken to the track (10 dollars per person if you race or not?) so I dont know what it runs yet. I still dont have a working tachometer, but Ive purchased an MSD DIS tach adapter and Im gunna try that. Ill upload some new pictures of the car after I take some today. Just had a whole new front end and hatch put on the car.

Daily driver is a 1979 280zx, just about no stock suspension left... untouched motor =P

I am Brian, 30 years old, married with a rugrat on the way. I have been a Marine for almost 11 years now, I work in intelligence and have been stationed in Okinawa, Japan for 6 years so far. I will probably be here for another 3 before I go back to the U.S. (They let you do anything when you volunteer to go back to Iraq).

I have owned a Mitsubishi GTO over here, an R33 Skyline GTS25T (alot of mods to that one before I totalled it), an R32 GTR with a bunch of junk done to it, and now I am working on an RB26DETT powered S15 with alot of junk done to it. I currently drive a beater (1990 Nissan Primera) so that I can afford the stuff for the S15.

I previously owned a 99 civic si, but totalled it... that was for the best.And like someone said a few posts earlier... if it wasn't for Nico and a select few members on this board, my car wouldn't be what it is today... Thanks everyone who has helped me out and continues to help out.Old picture of the engine bay... but not much has changed

Creighton. 22, living next to Joe (Kamin) in gay Tucson, AZ. my car has been through hell and back again...twice. im happy with it. WAS my DD, track slut, and weekend warrior

i finally managed to blow it up. she should be running summer with a reliable 400whp. if not, at least 350 (where she stood before she blew)just as theorized, piston ring was the first to go.

and yes, im a HUGE ricer. if we had more night events, you best believe id have green underglow neons

Hello my name is Chris Jex but everyone just calls me Jex. Im 30, live in Garland Texas (origanally from Renton Washington) and I am a full time student I have 2 kids with one on the way. I am also the president of the of the DFW 240sx club. 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.
