Hello gents I thought I would share my project with you all. I bought this truck a few years back and did a quick swap in it and rolled it for about a year and a half. Over this past winter I decided to bring it back down and rebuild it.

Here is the truck after I did the swap

The engine is out of a 92 240sx. This is the current state it's in now. Nothing much to raize to much of an eyebrow around here but I like it. ka24e pistions, GSXR1000 itb set up, and p/s delete

That project looks like it's coming along very nicely! Hows the ride with the coil overs vs the tension rods? From looking at the pics with the KA in there, you probably can't run an AC system can you? Although, in Oregon, I bet AC is the last thing you really need in truck.

Great job!

Thanks its been a fun project but I don't know how the coil overs are going to ride yet. And na don't need ac but I did relocate to north Carolina and sonetimes I wish I had ac haha. But that's not what this truck is being built for not even a radio. I got my engine in and running all new wiring now chassis and engine both new fuse box too. Then it will be on to tuning more of the megasquirt.
