I m a new user to this because I might get a 240 my dad showed me this site. So fiqure I make use of it. What can I do just to add a little more hp also where do you think i can get a new a.c. system.Dosent work just makes some nasty noise the vent works, but the a.c. One thing whats S12 S13 S14 S15. My hopefully soon to be car 91 240. hatchback. Also the car makes a realy weird sound when turing kinda like a when you open a door and the hinges arent smooth that kinda noise.

I'm pretty sure I saw a whole AC system for a S13 in the for sale section.... just keep browsing, I'm sure you'll find one for sale, or someone who is parting out their car may have one

if you want a "little" more hp you can always do what most guys do intake, catback exhaust, i've heard some hp increasement from people using redline synthetic oil also, check if anything is broken or worn in your car that can bogg down some power and then you can break into the head/block.

that whine when you turn the wheel is probably the power steering being low. check the reservoir on the driver side shock tower.

your power stering pump is probably about to die then.

If you wnat some horsepower just go to a welding shop and ask them to just weld a 3in pipe from the headers back. and a intake

before upgrading, makesure everything else is working good.

Chassis codes

S14 is correct '95-'98S15 is still a silvia not a skyline, it was never in the US, made in Japan from '99-'01 I believe.
