Post

Hi all, names Matt, i am a old school hot rodder but got a good deal from a friend of mine on a 1993 240sx super hicas. I am completely new to imports, so this will be a learning experience for me. im a good mechanic but every car has its tweaks, so im hear to learn and be schooled. just wanted to say hi and look forward to learning and im sure getting many tickets. im surprised at the response and speed of this lil car. much more to come im sure. thanks. take care.

You're surprised by the speed of a 155hp 4 cylinder? Try boosting it... Then you'll really be surprised...

Either way, welcome to NICO.

I'm the last of a dying breed, I'm afraid. Tom (Didderson) is technically Lancaster, haha, but nothing ever goes on. New stuff is coming soon I suppose, haha.

Welcome to NICO, LoneHicas! I say stiffen that car's chassis, lower the suspension, upgrade the brakes and stick to your hot-rod roots with a VH45DE motor swap... Or keep it simple and turbo your KA. Either way you get torque on demand...
