Hey Guys!!!
Whats up?? Well anyways I recently just bought my car a week and a half ago
bought it completely stock, only bad part is that its automatic =( but oh well
it only has 150k and it was the cleanest car at the lot i bought it from
So far I lowered it, did a headlight restore because they were a terrible foggy yellow color lol
and got 12k HIDs.
My plans:

RB25DET swap, which a local racing shop quoted me $1800 for the swap. So I might just take them up on that
Find some sexy deep dish wheels
and If i can... find a CF trunk n Hood.
And tons of more upgrades n goodies.

Went to a car meet last night.. And wow.
I had a crowd of people surrounding my car, its been a good 3 years since I've been out to a meet.
I have a digital camera so i will be posting pics of the swap in progress
and idk might find a nice parking garage or something to take some better pics
but these pics look pretty good to me and I only used my camera phone

Let me know what you guys think!!
And maybe some tips for the swap or deals on wheels that i can get.
ohhhh and i need the OEM radio wiring diagram because the guy that had the car before me cut/saudered the wiring harness clip to the wires... pretty ugly looking right now. but oh well.

here are some pics. before and then after when i dropped it.

Yuppp Yupp, i know the owner of the company
he's extremely cool and he knows some guys that are selling the RB25 for just as much as the SR20
so he quoted me 1800. And then get quite a bit of bolt ons for a decent price as well.
I cant wait to get it! lol
I used to own a 91 240sx hatch.. but got into an accident. freaking Tboned. =[
I was in the process of buying a RB26 for it when that happened.

Nice, but for now let keep your car in this thread and not everyone else.

:)

And RB25 for 1,800 should get the S14 SR for 1,500. :D

uhh.. why would i want to get a S14 SR for 1500?? Rb25DET and free install plus a huge discount on a bunch of upgrades for 1800...
i think its a better deal.
And what u mean but for now let keep your car in this thread and not everyone else? lmao whats that mean? :poke:

So yeahhh today rained... did a lil bit of drifting in a parking lot and got somewhat of a crowd watching n taking pictures lol
:ohno: i just cant wait to get my swap done im so hyped

Just saying IF the RB was that cheap, SR should be cheaper no...

Plus more parts available for it. And from what I see more reliable.

There's a reason why rb owners say RB=Running broke.

lol yeahh thats what i planned on doing
im getting a damn good deal so ima just take advantage of it
which the guys over at BDJ's are familiar with 240's so i was glad that they are able to help me out for such an awesome price
i used to own a 91 but i got tboned and had to sell it =[ completely totaled no pics of it to show yall but it was pretty bad
i love driving my new 240 it handles great and no problems at all
well just 1 that i can think of but idk i might just take it somewhere to get it fixed
and thats the OEM radio wiring harness thats all messed up... :tisk: owner before me cut up the wiring or didnt know wtf they were doing. but looks like they tried to sodder it back togethor and did a poor job at it.
lmao i only got enough to get me the swap sorry terry haha but if i was ballin like crazy i would hook you up :dblthumb:
