Beautiful! I had a '95 240sx SE (Zenki) about six months ago. It was an automatic so I didn't have long term plans on keeping it, but LOVED driving it. The RX sat in the driveway most of the time while I had the 240. The engine had 130k+ miles on it and a compression check showed virtually no loss in compression across all cylinders and only a 1-2psi maximum difference. A very reliable car, but SR is always better

I have long since wanted a good kouki but they aren't easy to find and they are selling way above book value. Keep a close eye on it for sure, the creep who took your other 240 could be watching.

Do you have any future plans for the 240? 300ZX brakes? The front lip spoiler is a must.

Just watched the video. I've been looking at '91~'92 240 hatchbacks and coupes (only for the HUD). I had decided I didn't really need one, now I want one again

I didn't realize you had so many mods, what engine and engine mods did you have?

i had a blacktop SR, GReddy FMIC, Blitz LM intake, GReddy Turbo extension, Blitz DP, Catco cat, Apex N1 II Evo (full stianless) exhaust, HKS actuator, GReddy Profec B SpecII, B&M Shifter (awsome shifter) and i ran the turbo at about .9-1.00 bar... made about 260at the wheels, good enough to be dead even with M3s and beat C55 AMG (the new ones) in the cold on the highway.

hehe, Z32 brakes eh? I guess you read my mind... my pads and rotors are coming in today.. i just need to find some calipers and I have lines on order

That was a very passionate video. I'm sorry to hear that someone stole your baby. That would really make me very angry.

Haha, cool Nice thing about the setup is that you don't even have to wait for aftermarket wheels - they fit great behind the stockers; I'm preaching to the choir here though.
