Just figured I would say whats up. I have been into Nissans for about ten years now (since stationed in Okinawa, JP in 2001, hence the screen name) and I own a 95 240sx and an 05 G35(wife's, but I pay for it). I am from ATL and have been a member of 240ATL for a few years but finaly decided to join NICO seeing as I am on here often just looking at threads. I am curently deployed and am saving up to do my RB25 swap in the 240. No huge power goals as I would like to keep it somewhat realiable. I plan on getting around 350 HP and just cleanning it up a bit. Thanks for having me and I look forward to chatting. Cheers.

Thanks for the welcome. I will definitely check the stickies in the 240 General Sections. I have been trying to familiarize myself with the layout of the forum. Looks like a bunch of good info and a lot of people that are willing to help with questions. I will be home on leave in a few days and will take a few pix of the ridz to post up. Thanks again for the welcome. Bmore-Coupe, that is a sick a** "G"! Clean.

Wow, a 72 240z with an RB25. Nice, how do you like the RB? I know going from a 150hp motor to a 280hp motor is a big differance on paper but how big of a defferance (driving wise) is it?

I'll let you know in about a month. She's almost finished. The motor sounds badass! Can't wait to put all that power to the wheels. We had been trying to source a different diff but they are too freaking expensive and hard to find. Gonna go with the stock R180 and hope for the best that I don't snap it. The new driveshaft arrived last week so once school is done for this semester Greg and I are gonna dig in and get her finished. Shouldn't take long once I'm able to devote some serious time to her. Here's the seroiuslyneedstobeupdatedinabadway build thread.

Damn man, that is when you know you have been away from the U.S. for too long. That thing looks identical to a G from the front. Either way, good looking car.
