Before I start RP, I have note for you; One. My grammar wasn't great, because English wasn't my first language, and two. My RP forum call "Poorly made RP [LOCKED]", I messed up because I create something huge drama, and I felt not right, therefore that forum will be locked.


My name is Kevin, and I'm 24. I work at Gas Station, which is it boring work but I want money to income, also I live in LA, USA, anyway few days ago I bought off the internet for 5,500V$, it Nissan 240SX 1992 red, it has been well looking after, original KA24E single cam version engine got blew up, and replaced to fully re-build SR20VE (207BHP) engine came off on Nissan Primera. It have engine modded done and it made 260BHP, it pretty quick car a non turbo. For reason, it cheap because fuel pump was very worn out, which is it not drive-able, owner have no time to repair or sent to garage, also he kept aftermarket rim so, stock wheels was using. Also, suspension and brake was stocked. I bought that car already, after good looking around.



At now, you see how clean she is. I just replaced to up-rated fuel pump, then engine starting up sound very beautiful, nice humming sound. I take the photo and I show to you guys. I take her a drive, oh god she is damn quick and putting huge smiles on my face.


It need upgrade brake and suspension, which is I will doing that upgrade next. Anyway, I see you later next update S13!

Wallet -
Before - 20,000V$
S13 - 5,500V$
Fuel pump - 500V$

After - 14,000V$

Heyy, I'm been head to breaker yard for fun to strolling around, I have found some parts that willing fit for S13. I bought; White-line Sway bar kit (400V$), Ksport GT pro coilover (1,500$), and Endless 4 pot brake system (1,800V$), for total of parts is 3,700V$, I bought it and I head to home and I replace coilover, and sway bar, because Endless brake won't fit for stock rim. Having upgrade coilover and sway bar the handle will become more sharper, and way more better. I takes her to drive around, I felt handle doing very well with power, I can't find faults handle, they just like stick on road like glue, but they seen hate factory tyres. I have some photo before and after. Before was stock coilover and sway bar, and after with coilover and sway bar. All parts that I bought was great and lots of life left.

Before.


After.

I was bit rushing and no time to take pic the ass, so I have time now and here is...!


Edit: I just bought Work VS-KFs Chrome for 1,200. I bought from guy call Crazy Eighty Eight. Will fit tomorrow, because I'm bit tired to sorting sway bar and coilover replace.

Wallet -
Before - 14,000V$
Breaker yard - 3,700V$
Work VS-KFs - 1,200V$
After - 9,100V$

umm, Coils cost 1450$ just by themselves so I don't know how you got all of them for sell than coils. Also, ENDLESS 4 piston bbk costs 1800$ so please fix your goddamn pricing
EDIT: Okay, maybe you have found all of that on slavage yard, but I doubt that they'd let you buy them for just 1400$, unless they are in a poor condition

Finding any of these products in a scrap yard is impossible. Any person with a brain would know to remove those parts because they're really expensive.

Fix your prices please.

I sorted price out, sorry about it, and KondzixsPL stop being moody like old women, chill out jeez!

Quick news, guys!
1. I was thought RPM red line limited on KA24E (single cam version engine) use be originally fitted from factory compare swapped SR20VE which is base off Nissan Primera. Turn out, I was right, and owner never told me both engine was different RPM red line limited. My rev counter was red line limited are rough about 5,900 RPM (Proof: *LINK* ) however, SR20VE got 7,300 RPM (Proof: *LINK* )! I don't feel like fully fast when I shift 5,000 RPM between 5,300 RPM, I felt like bit sluggish at 5,000RPM, I would order tachometer when I arrive Skip's shop. My S13 felt quicker when I shift at 6,600 RPM than only 5,000 RPM.

2. I forgot to buy 5 lug hub swap for new rim and Endless brake kit, I can remember I saw at salvage yard there some for sale, so I went there and I bought it for 500 V$, then I head to Skip's shop and I ordered it (See photo for order list), I paid 1620 V$. Reason I order tyres because I bought rim but it don't came with tyres.


Will show photo later tonight about fitted.

Wallet -
Before - 9,100 V$
5 lug swap - 500 V$
Work VS-KFs - 1,620 V$
After - 6,980 V$

At time was 9PM night I wear seat-belt on I was stopping at traffic light because it was red, the car was distracted on the phone and don't see me properly, when he saw traffic light goes amber light, he was stepped accelerator and he still using phone, meanwhile my car suddenly cut out for no reason, and he don't saw my car, he was driving like 100 KPH (62 MPH) which is car was speeding, then car crash into rear of my car, I have huge whiplash injury and sent off to hospital for scans thing make sure there no hidden damaged my body, which is I'm in hospital (not RL). Meanwhile, the police are investigating the accident, it was case other car was speeding and using phone, police was checking his breath and find out he was drinking, and he was arrested. The police was told me, my car have throttle cable snapped case throttle shut the air off and the air cannot enter the engine.

You're good ?
That is the most important
With regard to the car, the irons are fixed, and if they can not be fixed, it is preferable to start again with another
There are several 240sx out there, Projects are over, but the important thing is that you are well, the rest is irrelevant

An RX7 FC3S N / A would be a good option, they are between 3000 and 6000, and the turbo fc3s are between 7k and 9k

Although you can also buy an RX8, are quite economical, from 4500/5000, but with problems, then for a little more you can have one that is working well

Sorry short but I'm so busy in real.

I told you that the rx8 if you buy it cheap you would have to spend a lot of money
You would have bought an rx7 fc3s, I bought mine for 6500 and it came perfect, Mazda official maintenance record, 76000 miles and it was smooth as if it were new

btw , nice s14

Nothing much changed my S14, still same...
I'm thinking getting Supra MK4 non turbo model (has be working conditions) to replace S14. Supra Mk4 non turbo was cheaper than turbo model.
Do you agree?

Mirror - 50 V$
S13 scrap value - 1000V$

Ayeee bought new drift project!
I found this for sale cost me 500V$, it like 90 percent parts is missing, which mean it perfect for me to bare shell into drift car.
Car was 1991 Nissan 180SX, right hand not left? Good spotted, it was imported from Japan. That why it call 200SX not 240SX.
Last owner told me, it was runner when it imported till he want stripped out for cash...
Here photo!


Front end already cutting out for tubes, and I head to DIY store for tubes, thing blah blah. Once I'm at garage, I being testing and mocking up...
Here photo so far, not happy final mock up.



Why not happy? I left some gap on top, and it look strong but it not strongest, like it could bented during car body shift right to left abused...
I may need front end to help me to doing easy tubing around without caught rookie error.

Before - 6,180 V$
200SX - 500 V$
DIY things - 200V$
After - 5,480 V$

Remember yesterday what I said? I can't do tubing front end without front end body work to get line up and gap perfect so, I did bought PS13 front end, I saw other RPS13 but front already smashed up but I could use rear light, spoiler, side skirt, rear bumper, and some other stuffs like wire harness, interiors, etc, all total cost me 2,000V$, it quite look expensive but I have pretty mostly part that I need. Only I need parts is engine, ECU, stuff that engine kept running...



Don't worry about no light, grill, and bumper, they don't have supported because there no tubing. I will doing tubing, lots of plans, bending, try to make look perfect and safe. May it take me 2-3 days to tubing done.

Before - 5,480 V$
Parts - 2000V$
After - 3,480 V$
