Hey whats goin on. Im Nic im 19 and im from illinois. Just thought id be classy and introduce my self. I am new to owning a nissan but i know a little here and there about 240s because my friend has one. I decided to leave the honda game and come on over here haha. I drive a white 91 hatch LE. It has 96,000 miles and the body and underneath is flawless. I just bought it about a month ago and have done a few mods already. I have a few more things i want to do but noot much. I for sure want to get rid of the spoiler on there. It came from the factory with the VLSD luckily ha. I bought Dc sports ceramic header, Megan 3 inch test pipe and a 3 inch HKS Hi-Power cat back. I also bought 16X8 +0 offset xxr 513's as a cheap rim to get me by for now. yea i know theyre xxr's but they are better than sentra wheels. And I have Falken azenis 195/50/16 tires to wrap them. I plan on buying stance GR+ coils and stance rear upper control arms. Thats all the plans at the moment but im sure there are more to come. Heres the pics.

Welcome to NICO.

Looks good, I think I have that spoiler. Its a 3 piece but just the center wing looks good, especially when it's paint matched to the car.

Yea the previous owner said it was a 3 peice but he threw the sides away because they came down and ran along the side of the car all the way to the door handle haha.

Welcome man! May I interest you in my annual Nissan/Datsun cookout this coming Sunday? It would give you a chance to check out some other 240's and Nissans from Illinois and other surrounding states.

I like that wing alot. Looks almost stock when its the same color as the car. Yeah the other pieces make it look kinda like a 1g talon. But Its a pretty OG spoiler.

Sweet man, but I suggest you make it more than just a chance. Should be a perfect day! Sunny and 80 degrees. I will also have Forza 3 competitions running out in the garage along with my Fanatec steering wheel and full pedal setup.

Should I add you to the list?

Yeah, if you have the means, a Broadfield BBQ is not something you should pass up unless you are on your death bed. Wish I was going :(
