UPDATE March 18th: I put Sirius satellite radio in the 240 back in January, very cool. Got the unit for that right below the kenwood headunit. Displays song title and artist along with some other stuff, tons of great music and not a single commercial. Then as of just recently I put a JL Audio 12W0 sub in the trunk for a little extra bump; it's powered by a JL Audio e1200 amp and in a custom box I made myself. The sub sounds rediculously good, so low and really loud, but crisp at the same time. JL makes great stuff. I bought the sub and amp on ebay and the wiring kit from crutchfield and finished the whole project for about $250, I think I came out pretty well. For my box I've got a piece of PVC tube running through the back of it so my strut bar can stay in and I can still fit two sets of golf clubs in the trunk. So the strut bar holds the box in place and provides a little extra security for my sub seeing that the box is bolted down by the strut bar. I may get some pictures up for it soon. I'm selling the car at the end of the upcoming summer; if you're in the milwaukee area leave a message if you have any interest in purchasing it, should be sometime around august when I sell it.
UPDATE! December 4th: Been a long ass time since I've changed anything here. Well since like May or whenever I updated this thing. I've had my headgasket replaced (Top Street Performace here in Milwaukee did great work on it), replaced the alternator and battery myself (alternators in 240's aren't very fun, and also replaced the fan clutch myself(the easiest of the everything). As soon as I got that fan clutch in I went out for a test drive at about midnight on a thursday night and promptly got pulled over for goin 15 over, way to ruin my test drive fuckin pigs. I got away with a warning so it was all good. The car still runs great and I'm enjoying the extra power I get from it being 30 degrees out. Onto the car...
Well here it is, my 1990 Nissan 240sx SE. It's a replacement for my 94 civic EX, under the friends list baycvc and on the 2nd page I've got some pictures of why I had to get a new car lol. Can't say I'm glad I got in the accident but I definitely like my 240 better. Rememer to vote, drop a line in the guest book too about what you think.
You can see the tinted windows and 16" Millie Miglia 1000s w/ Dunlop SP Sport A2's(great wet and snow tires, decent summer tires). I think the rims look damn good for 16s, I love the design.
Here's a few of the engine bay, you can see the red accent hoses, red spark wires, Injen intake, and the Suspension Techniques front strut bar. I got a rear one too but no pictures of it.
More engine...
A nice exterior shot, you can notice the drop a bit. I've got Eibach springs and Tokico HP blue shocks.
Front shot - you can see the clear turn signal lenses and the fog lights up front.
Check out the white faced gauges in there, the speedo only goes up to 115, weird. It doesn't take too long to get there but it doesn't got much faster than 120. The gears are too closely spaced and you just run outta gears.
You can see the Kenwood KDC-319, pulled it from my civic and popped it in here.
Looks a bit like a Ferrari huh? If it only it really was lol...
You can see the FREE Pacesetter Monza Cat-back exhuast here, got two shiny tips on it. The dealership I bought the car from gave it to me for free since the stock one was really rusted. It sounds real good, not ricey at all, but I'm skeptical as to how much power it's giving me.
The wheels up close, I oughtta take care of the rusty calipers and rotors.
Some more recent photos of it. It's June 3rd and it's just barely starting to get warm out, damn Wisconsin.
That's all I've got for now, don't forget to VOTE and thanks for checkin out my 240. On page 2 you can see my old civic...
