What the hell was he doing with all those Nissan motors? Dang.

well hes a KA/T freak. when he owned that 240 vert he had a 350hp ka/T that he spun to 9k rpm (no rev limiter, and KA's are only ment to go 7500) he had a KA/T as a daily that blew. he bought a 240 hatch with a SR and blew it up, he put a VH45 in his 300zx and teh first one didnt last the first drift practice without getting rod knock lol

heres his 300zx on a run the motor didnt go

my top 3 favorite motors got as so:

LSX
1/2JZ
3UZ-FE

Get something with a Ls bottom end cause they are bulletproof! If build correctly.

SR20DET is not a good motor if you want reliability

This season, my friend blew 3 engines and 2 tranny's and the third engine was after one day.

depending on power there not that bad. the guy that organizes teh drift practices here has a 240 hatch with a SR he had rebuilt 7 going on 8yrs ago. stock bottom end S13 sr20 (stock as in OEM bearings, crank, rods, bolts ect) that dyno's 420RWHP, and in almost 8yrs hes never had to work on the engine. my old vert had a 450hp stock bottom end sr20 but he took it out

Just read through so many Drift Works build threads and all I can say is I need an F****ing job so I can save up for a project car !!

I seen a 240sx near by me going for £900 it was stock all round but had a little rust on the body around the arch's and best of all it was a Manual (Most the ones for sale I have seen have been auto's)

lol my 240 project will easly be over 7500 USD since its gonna be a S13 vert with kouki s14 front, 500hp LSX and full cage >.<

The only thing(s) Im set on if I ever get a 240 is an SR20 and a set of rear Kouki Lights.

Ohh and a Pig-nose front Bumper.

pig nose's are nice when there slammed to the ground. SR20's are good for low buck power (a few bolt ons and a S15 turbo and your capable of making 300hp) but everyone in there brothers mothers sister has a SR

The endless possibilities with a 240...

The perfect setup for me would be a 200SX S13 (US 240 S13)and buy a JDM S14 front cut (US 240 S14) and do a front end conversion, SR20 with a few parts like an intercooler, S15 turbo and a straight pipe aswell as a set of JDM clear taillights finished with a set of coilovers.

I'd like a Kouki with a 500 HP RB26DETT, but single turbo instead of twin. I love Kouki S14's. For coilovers, I'd probably put some Tein's if I can find them for a good price. Gunmetal gray Wedsport TC 105 N's, 18 inch. There are so many good looking kits out there, I probably wouldn't know where to begin. I would probably respray it to a Supersonic blue(the color on this C6 vette).

The lighting doesn't show the color off ALL that well.

same front end i want 240s are one of the most customizable cars out there IMO

Why does nobody buy my S14 front end for 200SX S13 on BNB if you all like em?

Because in general, it doesn't look that good. I'm not saying YOURS doesn't look good, I'm saying in general, it's really hard to make it look good. I just wish we had actual conversions for them. Yours looks good though.

Lights arent made by me anyway, I dont care.
But yeah youre right actual conversions would be lots better.

so my 2000 blazer 4 door is gonna need tires before winter, ive seen a few with 98-02 camaro z28/wheels.. i think im gonna but 17" SS wheels with 32" BFG A/T's (tires may be a bit big, but i got a 2.5" lift planned for it)
