My 240sx.
It started life with me as a bone stock 117,000 car that I drove to high school(40 miles a day) my entire 12th grade year. It remained for the most part stock. By the end, I had a K&N filter, Pacesetter header, and an Apexi N1 exhaust on it. So, yea, it stayed pretty much stock. Didn't stay that way for long. In September of 2004, it was gifted with a turbo. This was what some people would call a "ghetto" setup. PVC intercooler piping, a FMU(Fuel management unit), all the stuff you don't want on your car. It did a best of 15.3@93MPH in that trim. Now I have a very complimentary list of mods and much better times.
Mods include:
GroundZero manifold
T3/T04E 50trim w/.63ar turbine housing
Turbonetics evolution 35mm wastegate
3" custom downpipe made by me

14psi pull
Stock wheels, stock suspension, Toyo Proxxes FZ-4 205s, 43psi tire pressure.
I am 19 years old and I built this entire car myself. Only time it has EVER been in a shop was for a new set of tires and then to patch one tire. Every bit of basic matinence/upgrades/and tuning has been done by me aside from the ECU tune which, obviously, Scott Avoy(Enthalpy) did.
Remains to this day daily driven on a BONE STOCK ENGINE, and now has 140,1XX miles on it. Currently driving it everyday at 14psi.
Plans for the car as of now are:
5zigen FN01RC's in 17x9 +20 (4x114.3mm) on all fours wrapped in Kuhmo MXs (235 front, 245 rear)
KTS coilovers
Then some Autox madness!!
