New to Autocross - '95 240SX - RB20DET

Postby TreyE » Sun Mar 25, 2018 8:29 pm

Hey all,

I have never auto crossed before but it has always interested me. I bought a 1995 Nissan 240SX project car to get into it and to have something to tinker with, I rode motorcycles for 7 years before and after selling it I was bored. The car came from Kansas stripped interior, leaking valve covers, break up under boost, steering rack leaking like hoover dam. I have since replaced valve cover gaskets, put in LS1 coils, new steering rack, Mishimoto radiator. I am trying to get out of the street modified with putting some interior panels, I also am installing a passenger seat for instructor.

Car has an RB20DET w/RB25 turbo, turbo back exhaust, intake, tune, Stance coilovers, Cobra Imola Pro Fit seat, 245 & 275 Federal RSRR - that's about it 248rwhp/225rwtq. Looking forward to meeting some of you all and learning! :read:

With a little bit of interior, looks like a FAST M2 car to me. You'll be in good company.

Push Harder - Drive as close to the limit of your tires as possible.
Suck Less - Drive something resembling a proper racing line.

Another 240! Do you come to events often? Love the S13 coupe’s. Almost got one!

It's a very rare occurence that I miss an event. But, that's not my car. 8-)

That's Charles Stowe. He's been back at it this season after taking about a year off. You'll see him around. He was at yesterday's event in the 240.

He brought it out and I missed it?! Have only seen him in the Scooby since he came back.

He did! I guess he got some new streetable tires so he can drive it to events. And... he had it DETAILED! The paint on that car is SO nice. :lust:

Anyone know of the best place to have calipers powdercoated? I have some Z32's I'd like to get stripped & painted before installing! :lust:
