New Guy from TN

[SilviablhS14]

Hey NICO,

So I've been looking around here for a while now and just decided to start an account. I got my 240sx back near the end of April last year after dealing with a couple different cars that I was tired of. When I got it, it wasn't in that great of a condition. It needed a tune up bad, had a nasty exhaust leak and needed some new rear tires for the massive 19" G35 Rays that were on it. It also had Z32 front brake calipers and BMC.
I got everything fixed and sold the rims and bought some of the stock SE wheels.

This is how it sat then.

Now I have had a little extra money so I tinted the windows and tail lights and I also got rid of some of the chrome.

This is the most recent picture now.

I plan on in a month or so upgrading all of the suspension parts, since they are all original and the car is 16 years old.

My Parts List

• BC Racing BR Series Coilovers
  ISIS Control Arm Package
  ISIS Subframe Bushing Inserts
  Energy Suspension Master Bushing Set
  Energy Suspension Rear Diff Bushing
  Z32 Rear Brakes and E-Brakes

Just a couple of other photos.

Thanks man. I know its bad but it was the best thing I could do at the time. I'm planning on buying a new BRM exhaust after all the suspension upgrades.

Glad to see the mud flaps fell off..... nice ride! Still wish I had a sunroof...

[jrad240sx]

That S14 is very clean, and so is the engine bay!
I like the stock lip and the fog lights, along with the mudguards!

Not a big fan of the tinted taillamps, I'd recommend some Kouki taillamps.

Overall very clean car and well kept!

I'm in Nashville most of the time for school but when I'm not in school I'm done in Columbia.

Thanks Man. I thought about the Kouki taillamps but I couldn't find a set in my price range when I did that.

cool cool im going to be moving to murfressboro at end of summer for MTSU. wont have money to do anything on my car i have to make good grades in college i am going to air force after college...hopefully to be some kind of pilot. i will fly anything lol

[pj]

an old man i knew, down at a bar in fla. always told me, join the air force if you wanna clean planes, join the navy if you want to fly them.
so i've been told anyway...

[jrad240sx]

yeah i have heard that too lol.....i think i could fly fighter planes easier but i dont want to be on a boat for months on end and the school has AFROTC might help me get better chance since its specifically air force cause they dont specifically have a navy but when i go in as a officer with AFROTC and a degree with HOPEFULLY around a 3.0 at least or higher like 3.4 would be possible for me. i will probably have good chance to fly and wont be cleaning hahaha MAYBE lol

[pj]

sounds like you have a good plan to me, stay the course! haha way back when i was trying to serve i wanted to be a marine. but through some coaxing from family haha i looked into the army and decided to try to be a warrant officer, pilot a helicopter.
from everything ive been told and what i know being a military pilot is a great career to have, once youre there and are one. especially if you plan on making a career out of the military. i was excited and into it but i was rejected due to adult-case asthma(diag. at 17)...so that was a no go for me. haha theyd take me with tattoos, lag screws in my leg and a mean perosnality but not with asthma lol
good luck with it though, i bet that rush from the thrust of a take off is like no other!

[jrad240sx]

amen thats why i want to even better than fast cars lol but yea im going to make a career i have wanted to do it since i was 11 and im in good health and got great vision.

[SX APPEAL]

Holy crap I forgot who's thread this was for a minute...

OP I actually kinda dig the tinted taillights with the green, and the mud flaps looked good too

[TroubleBound]
