Deal of a lifetime!!
Deal of a lifetime!!
Hey guys, I ended up buying a 1997 Nissan 240SX SE, factory 5 speed, from a country boy down the road. He said it jumped timing, bent valves, and needed new cam gears. I tore it down and it definitely only needed a timing tensioner and the timing reset. The kicker is, honest to god, I paid $600 for the car. It has a dented front driver side fender, and I need a new clear corner. I had a 1995 with a S15 front end on it maybe 2 years ago and regretted selling it. Now I am back in my dream car lol, and yes, dream car. I have loved the look of the S14, zenki or kouki, since the first commercial I saw for it when I was 7. I will post pics soon to see what you all think. Just wanted to say HI and I'll see yall on the road!

Awesome deal, OP! What are your plans for it?
I hope you don't mind it if I drop some inspiration on you... This isn't my car, but I've been drooling over it for about a month now...

It's all hogwash without a photo to prove it. There are too many posers in and out of these Nico threads for us to just take your word for it.
Re: (Amtk240)

Re: (Amtk240)
Sorry I haven't gotten any pics just yet, I am a broke white boy with no digital camera, I will be borrowing one tomorrow, I washed it and it's cleaned up a lot. Anyone that has called me a poser that's fine, I understand why you said it, no hard feelings. I'll have pics up soon, give me 24 hours.
