So like usual I'm looking for a Z32 TT to either build for myself or rebuild to flip, when I came apon this little gem. Now I haven't done a 240 build in a long time cause the little trolls that look for these cars want to try and talk you down by half your asking price and it just got annoying. Anyway, this was a really clean little base model coupe for $1000 with extreme valve chatter that has sat for almost 4 years. Plans are actualy mild, gonna pull the KA24E, rebuild it and put a small turbo on it, lower it a little, and swap the front cover to a 93 cover. This way I don't put as much money as my past 240 builds but still make it a easier sale. Anyway, now for the pictures. The first one is my motivation minus the extreme drop.

Well changed the oil, all the injector O rings, and set the timing. This thing is purring! I think the valve seals are shot cause it'll smoke for a bit after startup but then goes away after about 10 minutes of driving.

Swap to a silvia front end and keep it two tone like that. Looks wise that's the cream your pants combination. IDK if you can afford that or if it's worth it for a flip car though...

And nice Z. Rare and odd to see a 84-85 model 2+2 with a spoiler... Wish mine had that option lol.

Put the rebuilt J30 diff in this morning, the 5 lug conversion will be done at work after I find some 5 lug wheels for it, and I quit doing extreme builds (Body) for these cars. When I try to sell them no one wants to pay what I want for them, let alone, what I actually have in them. Now I do budget builds that someone won't have any problem paying for.

^good idea.
i'd much rather buy a 240 that has had money and time put into making it reliable than anything else.

Right now I have a little less than $1300 in the car and it's running good.
