I had an account here on Nico a while back (I'm actually wearing a Nicoclub shirt at the moment), but i've recently had some log in issues, and obviously can't receive the "forgotten password" email so i simply made a new account under a different Username, and email. Anyway, my name's Chase, i'm 17 and I reside in Tennessee. I have a 1990 240SX Hatch. At the moment, the KA24E is stock for the most part. I'll list the few mods it does have, along with pictures of the car from the night i bought it, up to last week. I'll keep this as updated as i can as the build comes along.Here's the time line, and list for mods purchased/installed so far



Engine:"Custom" IntakeAgency Power Catback exhaustT25 Turbo (not yet installed....obviously)

Suspension:GR-2 Shocks, and strutsEibach Sportline Lowering SpringsMegan Racing Strut Tower Bar

Exterior:H4 Headlight housings8000K HIDsSleepy eyesPiggy Front lip17" BSA 349's35% tintRoof spoilerRecently replaced the black line around the car....i guess that's "trim"

if i forgot anything, I'll add it

The Current build plan is to make between 180-200whp.Then eventually build on that. I simply want to be boosted for the time being.

i would ditch the cx racing manifold for a jgs....the cx racing manifold is junk and will crack. Your most likely going to have to run a t3 turbo also as no one makes a t2 sohc manifold unless you have have it custom made.

I was reading on KA-T about an adapter plate that can be bought for a T3 to T2conversion.

Save for the JGS, it will be well worth it.
