My new project
Figured id show you guys my new project:
1990 240sx Hatch
Was going to rebuild a KA24DE and turbo it, but after a little bit of searching i found out that instead im going to drop in a VH45DE from a Infiniti Q45. I plan on porting the heads, and replacing the bearings and rings when im at school, possibly even balancing the rods and pistons. I plan on taking my time with this build, so it may couple take a couple years but i plan on getting into drifting when im done, cause come on what else do you do with a 240?
Dent in the fender and door, windshield is also cracked.
Let me know what you guys think!

I like it! Looks like a nice clean shell with not too much rust. My best friend has owned several 240's over the years. Have fun with virtually unlimited aftermarket parts cry.gif

Yea i cant wait to get started on it, especially the motor. Check out some vids on youtube of a 450sx or a just type in vh45de and you will see why im going with that swap. The cars body is in amazing shape, besides the dent on the door and fender. The frame does have a little bit of rust, same with the engine bay but those are all easy fixes. The wiring seems a little wack, but i plan on just replacing the harnesses if i can find them in good shape.
