New 240SX Owner!

[dizzario]

Hey guys,

After trolling for a while I decided to join since I just picked up my first 240sx. Lucky for me, the guy I bought it from has a dad who restores cars for a living so $4900 got me a freshly (professionally) painted 240sx with full interior! I need to get some new (real) wheels and a fresh set of coilovers for her to start things off. I plan on doing the typical Type X tail light swap and possibly a Sil front end down the line, but for right now I just want to focus on her shoes.



Thanks for looking! I hope to learn a lot from this forum!

She looks beautiful (more pictures please).

Are you going to stay with the KA?

That's a clean ride man.

Thanks guys! Sorry for not responding, been busy with work and making sure the car is tip-top. Already looking to purchase the Ichiba lug conversion and get some wheels. I'm about to do some searching on wheel specs, but does anyone know if a 17x9.5+25 or a 17x9+35 would fit well on a stock S13 hatch? Thanks!

In other news, installed a new Tomei Fuel Pressure Regulator today and reworked some poorly placed hosing coming from my HKS SSQV. Should be ordering a Tomei Oil Pan next week as well as picking up some wheels once I figure out which specs are better suited for my car!

Hey guys. I've been crazy busy with work and stuff. Since my last post I:

-Took off the s***/blown suspension that came on my car and replaced it with Feal 441 Coilovers.
-Purchased a set of lower offset Rota (Offroad) Grids. Specs are 18x8+10 offset. I know they're not 'real' and TRUST ME it bugs the s*** out of me since I previously had Work rims on my Mazda :/
-Got a nail in the sidewall of the rear tires. Good thing they were already s***, bad thing that I had to use my Tomei Oil Pan money to get new tires. I have a very subtle leak still :/

That's it for now. Hoping to get some pictures taken and posted up ASAP. Hopefully acquiring some 180sx seats from someone locally next week.

PS - Where the hell is the FS section on this forum?

Let me know what you think! Still tinkering with s*** here and there.
