I have here a 1995 Nissan 240sx Coupe that I bought a while back and let me tell you, this car has been a piece of work. It has terrible oil leaks from where, I don't exactly know, it has a ticking noise somewhere, the back shocks are busted from previous driver who couldn't drive for s*** and wanted to hit every pothole in America. Basically, I saved this car from almost complete destruction, it's just taking me a long time because I don't make a whole lot of money to fix it up, and seeing as it's my only car, it's really hard to do so. I wish I had someone to take the time to come around and help me with it because none of my friends know what they're doing and I'm too cheap and stubborn to take it to a shop. I just took the radiator and stuff out tonight to replace water pump and thermostat, and to make it easier to clean all the oil and sludge buildup on the car. Btw, in these pics, me and my friends did this paint ourselves, it's not the best, but once it gets warm enough, we're gonna wetsand it and put a clear coat on it and see what we get outta it. Enjoy and please leave some feedback on what you think, possibly some advice and such. Thanks! :D

thank you for the save. dont worry someone here on NICO well probably give

you a hand. but some advice i would do a tune up and change gaskets since

you have an oil leak, and probably check for warpage of the valve cover.

Thanks man, I'm working on that right now, I'm gonna change as many gaskets as possible, a couple of bills hit me at once this week so it left me with hardly any money to work with, which sucks. I don't think the valve head is warped, or I hope not at least, I'll check all of this most likely tomorrow night after work or Friday seeing as I don't have to work. If anyone on NICO want's to help a fellow member out, please let me know! Goes to show how much I know about this car, but I'm slowly learning, I am but only 18 so I don't have a lot of experience under my belt. x]
