Buying an Abandoned Nissan 240sx Hidden in Woods

  • Recently I have been looking all over for a decent 240sx S13 quarter panel to use on my 240sx restoration. Unfortunately I couldn't find any.. so I decided to buy a quarter panel that was still attached to an abandoned 240sx! It was sad to see the MK3 Toyota Supra sitting next to it. But luckily the owner has a choice between two engines for that project car, a 7M or 2JZ. The parts from this crashed S13 240sx will now live on in other project cars!
    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.

Keep rocking man, your content has evolved just in this playlist i saw subtle changes in how you record be it lighting or edits. i laughed my ass off through the episode you did a crap ton on quick cuts because you took the time to line up all those shots for the effect. Thanks for what you do.

    Yeaaaaaaaaah boooooooyyyyyyyyy!! My man Mike, it's slowly frankensteining his car back together and I couldn't be more happy for him. The fact that you are doing all of this really shows that cars are just not inanimate objects, that we think they have a soul and we grow an emotional attachement to them. I'm having the same emotions on my MK7 GTI and I would die if something happens to it, that's just something non car people won't ever understand.
    Also I'm curious, maybe leave it for a future Q&A: Do your parents support what you are doing and motivate you to keep you going?
    I haven't even watched the video yet and I know it's going to be a banger as always, keep them coming my dude.
