Well im bored at work so i guess ill share what i have done so far, although its not much…

I’m new to the whole 240sx scene only got into it about a year ago. To be honest i didn’t even know what a 240 was, up until just before i bought my first coupe…

I bought this off a guy i knew from work, god how i miss that car…

anyways i drove that for a season and sold it only to some d’oh head who later put it into a pole, the car deserved much better:(

After that was sold i was looking for a project and i came across this beauty…

So i trailered it home, thanks to my friend Lane, for his truck. here’s a couple pics when i bought it.

Finally got it back to peterborough but stored it at a friends shop,

that is where it sat for about 4 months up until a week ago…

During that time saved up a little and bought this nice piece of machinery  
Thanks again to Varun, great guy [http://www.240sx.ca](http://www.240sx.ca)

After finally getting git back to my parents new place ( a week ago) i decided to paint the engine bay since the previous owner had stitch welding and a couple patches done to it.

Looked like this before:

Yeah so thats all i have done, isn’t much but its slowly getting there, weekend by weekend.

Parts that are on or going on car…  
S14 Sr20det VVT  
Megan exhaust manifold  
Megan Turbo elbow  
Apexi N1 exhaust  
Greddy boost, oil pressure and egt gauges  
Zeitronix wide band  
Greddy boost controller  
180sx brakes  
Koyo Rad  
lowered just on springs, some stance GR + will come prob in the near future  
probably missing some things but o well, list will continue

This weekend engine will be going in, wiring harness is being shipped off to be rewired on Monday. so i ll have that back in just less then 2 weeks.  
During that time ill hook everything up in the engine bay, put exhaust on, front mount, hook up gauge’s and all the other little things.  
So that hopefully when the harness is back i should be able to plug everything in and start it, well thats the plan.

I’m still looking for some wheels though… any suggestions? I love bronze/gold wheels…any suggestions? doesn’t have to be those colours…

no idea the size, big enough for a 240sx as you can see, i think it was like 60 bucks a day, and yes we pushed the car up, mind you it had no engine so it was super easy.
