Hi all. My name is Brady and I just joined. I own a 1990 240sx xe with the ka24e single cam engine. I am planning for a ca18det swap as this is the cheapest and easiest swap for me. If anyone has extra parts for this swap please tell me. :)

Something's wrong with your car. The popups are up, but the lights are off. You better get that checked out ;-)

Thanks for sticking around and for posting up pics of your ride! Looks fairly clean overall, but do you have a big chunk taken out of the side skirt there? For a second, i thought it was a tucked side-pipe... :)
