In today's video, I focus on installing a brand new front suspension in the 240SX. I'm using a combination of high quality aftermarket and OE Nissan parts to create a pretty sweet setup in the end. If you haven't seen the previous video (see link below), be sure to check it out! This will be one of the most important areas of focus on the car because it'll completely transform the way it hits the road! Now, I need to tackle the rear suspension! As always, a huge thanks to you all for supporting this project and for your patience over the past couple of months. Pretty soon, this car will be back on the ground, driving and handling better than ever!

A big thanks to those of who who are tuning in to an early upload! Hope everyone has a great weekend!
EDIT: I said that I used Nissan Z33 inner tie rods, where I actually meant to say Z32 (300ZX). Thanks!
Hey Kyle, couldn't wait for this video! Have a great weekend also!
Thanks buddy!
I haven't had a chance to film one of those, but I kind of want too haha.
Saabkyle04 i love this build series keep it up
I'll keep an eye out for any opportunities!
I find this video very calming lol.
Me to
#BuiltNotBought
So excited to see what the car will look like after the renovations. Thank you for this video!
Thank YOU for watching! Have a great day!
As an aircraft mechanic I have to admit that this is going to be the cleanest 240 ever!
Can't wait for mechanical upgrades Kyle!Keep up the good work!Greetings from Greece!
Thanks a lot for watching, I really appreciate it! Have a great day my friend!
I love these 240 build videos.
I love that you started by refreshing and rebuilding the base of the car(suspension bushings and brakes) before doing engine in this build.
Why
I ❤ wifey. Nice!
I really appreciate just how clean everything is!
Kyle is rebuilding that 240 correctly unlike other 240s that are trashed and people cheap out on parts
One of the best produced videos I’ve seen. I’m tired of all those vlog looking videos where you can’t even see the work becaus of the cámara work. Kudos!!!
It's been quite incredible seeing how far the car has come since you first bought it!
Awesome!! Your attention to detail is the best thing ever. You should degrease, power wash and coat the rest of the undercarriage of the car aswell!
Fav YT build so refreshing to watch
I like the message you had on your hand at 9:39, Smart MAN!
Yessir! Happy wife happy life! XD
Wow. Just changing struts is a workout!
Tommyfyeah would be proud!
Soo proud
Spectacular video as always...
That front suspension rebuild looked so fun!
Good job!
Thank you!!
Anytime, buddy! (^~^)
I'm glad you're taking the time to do everything true and proper, down to the nuts n bolts. This is going to be such a clean build that'll be a dream to drive!
Really excited to experience it! I'm going to work on the rear suspension today and hopefully have the video ready by middle of next week. It's GO time!
Glad to see you bought the Buick from your Grandpa. Keep the legend alive.
I've just binged on the previous instalments that i missed, got to say Kyle this 240SX is going to be very smart arguably in better condition than when it left the factory. Keep up the good work 👍
In love with these episodes, been watching them since #1 and the quality is top notch!
One can really see that you would not post anything with less detail as what you yourself would expect off of a good video
Just WOW !
So excited for this build
Your video quality is the best I've ever seen to be honest. I can only imagine how time consuming it is creating these videos! Keep up the good work Kyle!
best part of the video was what was written on your hand at 9:40
Omar Abbas 😁🤙🏻
Omar Abbas Happy Wife, Happy Life!
This car is gettin a loooot of love, keep up with the awesomeness.
Thanks friend!
I love the 240SX build videos! Keep it comming!
You never disappoint with your videos, can’t wait for the next one!
great progress so far!
Excellent work
What Kyle hope you’re having great holiday weekend too they called you out so wish you get there n have fun making videos too my fav video is you with Grandpa! It’s really sweet of you dude!!
Very, very nice! It's going to be such a great car to drive once its done!
I absolutely love these videos :D
So happy to hear it my friend, thanks for watching!
6:25 when Kyle shouted out to us OG subscribers 😂😈
Yeeaaahhhhh man! XD
Aye shoutout to the block !!
Looking good dude can't wait to see it finished.
Thanks pal!
i wish there was a love button!
It looks like more progress has been made on the 240. Nice work. I hope you have a great weekend.
Thanks pal, same to you!!
your build is so clean and thourogh
Awesome video Kyle!
Very beautiful ! I wish i had 240sx to work on !
Gonna go try out that stp soon! Sounds great!
Love the Grand Marquis. Great video.
Great vid
Some of the best car content on youtube is right here in your channel.
That really means a lot, thank you!
immediate sub for dailying a panther
Wow Kyle, that car is going to be much better when you've finished with it than the day it originally came out of the factory good job buddy 👏👏👍
Thank you so much Tony!
*I can't recall if you said you were going to do any changes to the exterior, but I think an OEM Type X aero kit would be a perfect addition to your build, and really fit the overall theme you're going for.*
This has to be the nicest 240 in the world that still has a single cam KA in it
Thanks man! The single jingle still has some life left in it, but my plan is to start the RB swap this summer. Thanks for watching!
Loving these videos, Kyle! :D
Hey Kyle love your videos man keep up the good work
Nice build man! I wish I could give my 14 this much love, but its a slow process haha.
Nice!!
what a lovely s13 - please leave the body and bumpers as stock!
Another awesome video. All these videos make me want to get my own project car!
If you have the space and time, you should! It's certainly stressful at times, mainly when it comes to filming, but it's therapeutic to just put some music on and just work without distractions.
You are giving me the itch for sure. I even started looking into a quickjack after seeing this video. The quality of your videos has always been topnotch so it is obvious you put time and effort in them.
Thank you Ben, I really appreciate that! As far as the quickjacks, I'd seriously recommend them. The money is worth spending. With the 240, it never felt fully stable on jackstands, just couldn't ever get it to sit right. With the quickjacks, the car is able to sit higher and perfectly level. There's safety bars built in as well to prevent it from ever falling.
Been looking forward for the new episode. Overall top notch quality tutorial and video Kyle!
Really hoping once the car are completed, you can invite Tom's Turbo Garage to be feature in your video. Both of you are really excel with Factory restoration... Really looking forward to that video 😀👍
I really wish you would list everything you use/ buy for your parts. Especially small things like bushings and bolts. Would make it simpler for watchers to easily look up the parts.
I fucking love this so much. can't wait to see more of it
Same style build as tommyfyeah. Except without the cussing lol. Good job Kyle
OG subscribers !!!!! I like that jajajaja...
Solve grain construct response bind reflection following prepare flour simultaneously
Why would people dislike this?
I want to do a build like this! But I would really like to know at the end how much you spent!
What lift is that i need to know asap plz
Which quickjack do you have? I see they have a few different options
Nice 240sx
Thank you!
Hi, nice rebuild.
What coilovers you put in to your 240sx?
Which model quickjack are you using on the hatch? The 3500, 5000 or 7000?
How have the SPL arms held up compared to isis or isr? Also how are the Energy Suspension bushings? Squeaky? BC coils good? Would love a review video of how all these parts are performing.
Very impressive Kyle :)
Thanks pal!
+Saabkyle04 Your welcome. I am a huge fan of your videos and I watch your videos a lot. I am smart with cars like you and I video them to. I video my family and friends cars and if you want to watch my videos go ahead and subscribe to me :)
insane
Good. Job so far just get it done plz u r killing me
Hey Kyle just wanted to know if you were going to do a build cost break down after the restoration is done
Yes, definitely
Thank you
YOU SHOULD GET A MEDAL FOR THE WORLDS BEST 240SX!!!!
This is the longest build of all CZcams.
Any info on the motor??
I think u said rb25. But
You just gonna install it
Or replace internal parts
Any upgrades
Hey I do have a question I have been watching all of your car reviews you just did a review on the corvette zr1 if it's possible that you can do a review of the all new 2018 bmw m5 in the near future ?
Nice new suspense.
:)
COOL Rebuilding The Front Suspension From Scratch: 240SX Restomod Ep.20
Can you make a video on the cost of everything once you're finished with the build
Do a review of the 2018 Toyota Camry SE
S13 oem inner tie rods are such a small diameter. Trick is to use s14 "95-98" inner and outer tie rods as they are beefier.
Do you know wich spring can fit in to the 240sx?
How much do you estimate this project will cost?
What book is that? @ 2:40 lol
Lookin gorgeous man! I’m very excited for the new engine as well! Have they completed the restoration of it?
Yep! It's already at my new shop/garage, just haven't posted anything on it yet. It's all wrapped up still! Once I get some more things in order with the shop, I'll do some sort of "unboxing" video and discuss the plans going forward. I definitely want to drive the car for a bit after all this time, but my plan is to start the swap this summer!
Kyle, I just heard through Streetspeed717 & DurtyMax Jack that you're coming to the CZcams callout in June. I hope you participate & shoot some videos.
Most suspension parts need to be at drive height before tightening bolts to torque factory spec. I think the part that wore out prematurely was in a bind causing the bushings to tear. Another area that can cause a problem is installing the sway bars upside down. If your suspension makes noise over bumps this maybe the cause.
You're absolutely correct. I've been strictly following the factory service manual. For the front, Nissan says to torque the sway bar bushings and endlinks on the ground, but everything else is fine up in the air. I think that's the way the rear was too, but I'll double check that for the next video. Thanks for the info!
Were those arms on the car when you got it? Or did you put them on? Looks like they weren't preloaded properly. Also curious if you know the brand of them? And did you preload your new control arm bushing? Lol. Other then that looking awesome man!
Don’t you need to paint the under tray to stop it rusting?
Hey! I hope you remember to tighten bushings' bolts when the car is on the ground / at it's natural height. Otherwise the bushings will twist and break quickly.
Yes! I can't remember if I mentioned that at the end of the video or not, but I'll be doing that for the front and rear before going to get it aligned. Thanks!
отличный Ниссан! привет из России
That's how you properly spend thousand in your car not in dumb things love the outcome
How many times did it take to get the bottle into the trashcan? Haha, just kidding! Great video as always!
A few XD hahaha Thanks bud!!
my grandpa would also totally make me buy a car which he doesn't even use lol
Wait why is the muffler exhaust in the intro is at the bottom????
It's been off of the car while so I can work on the rear end
Saabkyle04 oh :P
BG Air/induction clean is beater
We need longer videos
The rear suspension will be longer for sure as I'll be installing new axles as well! Thanks for watching!
Would u be intrested in selling stock front bumper and lip or just the lip
Idk how soon you would need it, but I have considered selling both. However, it'll likely be a while. I was going to save the cosmetics till after the engine swap is done. Depending on the financials, I may not start on the cosmetics this year, we'll have to see. My plan is to start the engine swap this summer. Feel free to shoot me an email at kyle@saabkyle04.com and check in every now and then. Thanks!
Saabkyle04 emailed thank you
Thanks! I'll get back to you soon.
Maiden voyage to get the motor put in?? :D
I wish! My plan is to start the swap this summer. I already have the engine at the shop. Once I get some more things in order with the shop, I'll shoot an update on what to expect and when!
I ❤️

Good one Kyle good one 😂😂😂
