my next project

[sOhcS_13]

just got this 240sx, its a 1990 and i got it with only 82xxx miles

future plans include sticking with the sohc, turbo setup, coilovers, and just drive it daily

so far i have done the sleepy eye mod, some rust fixing in the hatch, pulling the terrible motel carpet off of my door panels, and a little paint here and there

im not sure how to post images so any help there would be appreciated,

Easiest/fastest way to post images

Go to imageshack.usBrowse your computer for pictures you want to share. UploadGet link codes from imageshack(it generates them automatically)post them here.Sit back and watch.

If you are gonna have lotsa pictures and want to keep track of them, id use photobucket.com But imageshack is way faster.

Some might argue that tinypic is faster than imageshack....but i think they are wrong

[sOhcS_13]

alright thanks, i'll see if i can post up a couple pics

[sOhcS_13]

so here it is, it needs a little tlc but its in the right hands now

[Nali]

THat Sohc looks clean as fuuk.

Whatever you do dont swap out that motor.Turbocharge it if you want more power, but otherwise leave it be.

Very sweet car nonetheless.

[StylesCD]

SOHC are sweet, stick with it

[sOhcS_13]

i plan to keep the sohc, i had a dohc s14 but i like the originalty of the sohc

thanks for the comments, any advice is always appreciated

[troskinatior]

love that color and thats clean

[sOhcS_13]

i'm actually thinking about painting the car flat red with a gloss black roof and the black trim

after i do the body work of course, i have to make some panels to replace the rusty wheel wells

[danmansil80]

pretty nice piggy. the engine is clean as F*** makes me wanna keep my sohc.lol

[sOhcS_13]

keep the sohc!!

so this is actually a barn car, it sat for 6 years in some old guys barn, non smoker car, it has one of the cleanest interiors i have ever seen, there is only a small hole in the carpet and the normal drivers seat wear. when i went to see the car i instantly fell in love and bought it on the spot lol

thats funny cuz i did the same thing.. i got mine off a guy in modesto. i guess he had bought a new car and was ready to get rid of the car. when i first saw it i instantly knew it was going to be mine. one of the cleanest interiors ive seen, besides the usual cracks on the dash and of course the wear on the driver seat. too bad my engine has about 190k and maybe more... the speedometer was not working for a while and the guy didnt know what was wrong with it. he was almost going to change the governer(back when it was still AT)i drove it around without knowing how fast i was going until i had an epiphany and i changed the speedometer cluster... now it works like a champ

[sOhcS_13]

very nice, gotta love the barn finds, have you done any mods to it yet? and did you keep the stock motor or swap it out?

[danmansil80]

no i havent swaped out anything yet. ive just put a strut bar in it for now and lowered it on kybs and srs springs.since i have soo many miles on it im thinking of just going with the NA dohc with forged pistons and higher cams... or stock cams.. its beefy anyway. and once i get the sohc out ill probably build it and turbo it or just sell it. im not sure yet.

[sOhcS_13]

nice, you could always do the 2 exhaust cams on the dohc, save some money on that,

got any pics? post them up

[danmansil80]

i wish these were my rims haha i was painting my stock rims how it sits now those are pretty much the best ones

[danmansil80]

here are some you couldnt see, sorry about that

[sOhcS_13]

very nice

ive got the stock rims painted black too lol...just no centercaps

[EgoManiac77]

what to say about SOHC besides there are crappy under powered and just suck in general. u should have gone with like an SC300 or something u know 2JZ NO s*** something with real potential. or there is always the almighty SR swap...................... lol yo i am glad u left the dark side (honda)and saw the lite (nissan) cant wait to see the car done and i will hit u up next time it rains for the drift session i owe u. see u later and welcome to the forums peace

[sOhcS_13]

so i have been having a random misfire at like 3000 rpm and i was driving myself crazy trying to figure it out

A HOLE IN MY INTAKE!!! WTF!!

so i decided to patch it, it was an expensive intake (injen cyborg)







i used a rockstar can

[Nali]

Haha that patchwork is badass.

[sOhcS_13]

lol thanks, i'll get some pics posted up when its finished and installed on the car

[EgoManiac77]

deff the best patch ever and i just wanted to give u s*** . the sohc is deff the way to go i wouldnt get rid of it if i had it

[sOhcS_13]

so after getting it leak free and all patched up, this is how it turned out







now all i need is a sponsership from rockstar, so if there are any rockstar representitives that want to send me a case of rockstar feel free lol
