Project S14 240sx
 

I had one just like this one a few years ago, before I got my DSM and loved it, but it died a very unfortunate death. Black ice is a real killer.

So tonight I just picked up another '95 240sx. It needs a little work, but it's nothing I can't handle. It's got 114k miles on the clock, but the speedometer isn't connected, so I'm unsure of actual mileage but other than very minor hail damage the body is about 90% perfect.

The problems to be fixed:
Speedometer doesn't work
Missing trunk panels and a couple center console trim pieces
CEL is on, He told me that the MAF probably needs to be cleaned
questionable wiring under the hood
Power steering reservoir leaks
Grille is missing
Exhaust leak at downpipe/midpipe junction
The back of the hood is propped up like all the drifters do
The trunk doesn't quite line up
Front bumper is zip tied on
Suede headliner needs repair
Windshield wiper motor and wiper arms were removed for some odd reason

Mods the car already has:
Megan racing header
unknown midpipe that has a resonator
HKS Hi-Power 4" catback
Stance coilovers
Unknown brand short ram intake
Welded diff
Upgraded tie rod ends
Some kind of Lexus wheels


I'll post up pics tomorrow, it was too dark to take any by the time I got it home.

I remember looking at this one when I was considering an s-chassis. Nice buy!!!

Re: Project S14 240sx
 

was he drifting with it?

Re: Project S14 240sx
 

nice just like the old one I remember, time to get some jdm parts and a rb25 in there :)

Re: Project S14 240sx
 

very nice! we also got a S14 project but it's been sitting and waiting for an SR20det for 5 years :(. What are your plans for it? I still got a dream list for it also. These cars are definitely pretty easy to work on.

Re: Project S14 240sx
 

DOOO ITT!!! And then let me drive it :)

Re: Project S14 240sx
 

Call me weird, but I like the CA18DET swap :D

Re: Project S14 240sx
 

RB25det + 350Z rear + 350z front/rear brake assembly + TEIN coilovers ....oh...there is so much more on that list I don't even want to think about it!

Re: Project S14 240sx
 

Hows it drive with that welded diff? :)

Re: Project S14 240sx
 

Swapping 240s is dumb if you're just going to use another 4cyl. turbo KAs work GREAT.

Re: Project S14 240sx
 

Nice, what's your plans for it?

Re: Project S14 240sx
 

Drift king!

Re: Project S14 240sx
 

Awesome, happy to hear u got this I know you have been wanting one for a bit.
Lsx swap it.

Re: Project S14 240sx
 

"Equipped to drift" woot!

I like these cars, will you let me drive it sometime? Turbo it!

Re: Project S14 240sx
 

Look at the pics in the add. Haha

Looks pretty nice! Can't wait to see what you do with it.

Re: Project S14 240sx
 

N/A 4 banger with a 4" exhaust, lmao. I hope that just means the tip.

Re: Project S14 240sx
 

Yeah, the kid drifted with it. He said he went to 5 or 6 events last summer, I don't plan on drifting it. I'll kick the back end around every now and then for fun, but I probably won't go to a drift day with it.

My plans for the car are to just get everything fixed with it and drive it for now, but eventually I'll be getting a t3 housing for the GT30R I already have and putting that on the KA, with supporting mods of course. If the KA ever blows, then who knows what I'll do with it. Hell, even a wideblock 2.4 is an option ;)

The car doesn't do too bad with the welded diff, but tight corners definitely suck. That will be getting swapped out for an LSD sometime soon.

Upgraded brakes are definitely on the list too. Those stock brakes are fucking TINY! I'm not sure what I'll go with, probably Z32 aluminum caliper setup, or maybe R33 Skyline brakes if I can find a set for a decent price.

Re: Project S14 240sx
 

No, the tip is 5". Basically everything after the header is 4". Don't ask me why it's so damn big...
