Whats a good site to get performance parts for these cars???

Well, just to start you off in the right direction, the 240sx has one exhaust manifold, therfore it can not have "headers". It is a four cylinder and can only have one header. As for performance parts, just look to the left of your screen, and you will find reputable sites with quality parts. As for performance parts, a very good site is enjuku racing. They have almost everything performance for a 240sx. Also you can get sites off of links from greddy, hks, apexi, etc.... As for body kits, you can find them almost anywhere. Whether or not it's rice will have to be your choice because IMO almost every body kit makes a car look rice. There are few that are done nicely these days, unless it's in a magazine. Anyways, some of the best sites are the people who advertise here. NICO is the best when it comes to Nissan and Infinity info.

As for your car, do you plan on going turbo. KA-T, SR, RB, CA? LS1 maybe? Anyways welcome to NICO and be sure to post some pics of your ride.

SR's come with factory turbo yo. :P if you want to know more about SR's and stuff, head over to the SR forum section. you'll learn a lot there.

Man i need to go more into detail whenever i post haha.

I meant im gonna drop a BIGGER turbo into it.

I saw that Skyline engines arent too expensive, any Fabrication work have to be done to drop the R33 RB25DET engine / transmission into the 240?
