NICO forum member mello88 has compiled a ton of these pictures and made a slideshow/video out of them. http://www.vimeo.com/296928Thanks mello!

It's been a while since we've done a RB forum picture thread... So for fun, how about everyone posts a couple recent shots of their engine bay. It's always cool to see what others have done and maybe get some ideas for your own...

I will start.

Let's see some others...

Actually it was built by Unstable Hybrids. The car is for sale. Go to the classifieds section here and click on nissan cars. Will consider trade for 1995 or newer 240sx. Mechanically the car is great. Drives like a dream car.

Don't know quite yet. It will most likely be a 2.2. The block is off right now getting cryo treated along with the stock crank. My plans so far are working out. I will be sending off the stock rod to my rod builder and the pistons will be Wiseco units which will also be coated with Swain tech poly moly and Ceramic armor. After thant I will need another head since my first one got messed up badly. The head will have a PP and new componets. I figure this setup should be good for at least 500 WHP and possibly 600 WHP. I won't be shooting for that I want roughly 450-500 WHP that will satisfy me since my car is now a weekend warrior...
