Initial Shake Down in my Project 240sx! + Glass Install!

  • The past year and a half I have been reviving my project 240sx since the crash. After replacing the RB25 turbo and intercooler, welding up an old RSR exhaust, and installing type x tail lights, it was time for a test drive! We finish this video with installing 180sx quarter glass!
    I spent the last 7 years building this 1990 Nissan 240sx from the ground up by myself. I swapped out the KA24e for a KA24de. Then once more for a RB25det out of a R34 Skyline and couldn't be happier. I have also converted the 240 to right hand drive, (which ended up saving my life!) After installing a few drift parts; such as a hydro E - Brake, and dual rear calipers, welded diff, solid suspension bushings and more, the car handled amazing. Surprisingly this S13 was able to drift and stay sideways perfectly despite the damage that was done to it.

      You don't want to dip your car because it removes paint from every crevice. Unless you dip the car into paint, you can't protect all of those crevices. Just something to think about.

      @randomboxguy9320 Před rokem

      Any where you prime don’t forget to paint. Primer will actually absorb moisture and rust more through your time if you don’t paint it. Trust me I’ve Mb add that mistake to many times

      Im curious of what you learned or where you learned working on cars. Im 17 and also wanting to work on cars like you do and do it by myself not from any shop. The paint of the front left fender would fit the car very well. Love your vids, love the build keep it going💪🏼

      Hey Mike awesome work well done.. the blue fender match the engine cover and with the new set of chrome rims really cool might give you an idea to paint it midnight blue or metallic blue or even purple-blue.. but if you ain't sure yet wrap it up and then you can remove latter if you don't like it.. Remember you must like it first we just here to watch.. ohh real quick mention keep the 240SX side glasses for extra pair of spare parts you never know what storm or hail might fall.. ;0)
