"I drive my track car on the street" BUILD

[MommysLittleMonster]

I'm not sure if you meant to say the car is a "track car" now, but it has loads of potential. What are your plans for the drivetrain? Those KA's are pretty stout motors.

How is it a track car?

Do you feel cool for street drifting?

Well, considering it's a "build thread", why would you expect to see a car already converted into a track car? Eventually it will evolve to fulfill its purpose, hence the thread being in the builds section.

Sorry, not my cup of tea, too many ones like this on the road. I do like that corner glass though.

What motor are you runnin' in it? I like this so far, in for some sliding photos too.

I've always wanted a 240 but never wanted to risk buying a beat up POS :P And the clean automatic ones are $7k+

looks like a load of fun man

Good choice of car. Those wheels as I've already told you suit the car very well, I don't think you should swap them for a different set anytime soon. Anyway, I'm subscribed!

UPDATE PAGE 4



Well I'm bored and I just realized that I didnt create a build for this vehicle. I bought it to build as a track car but currently Ive been driving it on the street and clutch kicking on a bunch of corners. Yes I know street drifting is illegal and dangerous and some here are going to give me a hard time about it. but I dont do it alot and its always in a open area no houses, no people, and the street is empty at the time.

Well here it is: 1992 Nissan 240sx

I bought this car August 17th, 2012 looking like this.

The car ran like poo, had massive 18" rims and "lowering" springs. This thing was a monster truck. Well I got the car home that night put it in the garage and immediatly left for Daytona. I had found a used set of Tein SuperDrift coilovers for a good price.



I waited a few days to install the coilovers since I was still looking for wheels and a welded differential. Three days layer August 20th, I drove to Georgia to get them. 17" XXR 962. Yes I know not baller wheels but alot better then those 18's that were previously on the car. The Differential is out of a S14 which I didnt realize till I got home. The next day I had to go order the longer diff bolts and a set of bushings from Nissan. Not a bad deal since they overnighted them for me.



The install of the parts happened a couple days later and the outcome was this. Alignments way off and I still want to adjust the height a bit.



Brought the front end down a little more but I still want it lower. It handles really well and slides very easy but still doesnt look right yet. Sorry I dont have any photos of it going sideways. Soon though





The last picture shows no cage in the car or harness bar. That is the plan but havnt had time or money to order one so its going to have to wait. I do realize the dangers of not having one during a accident when using harnesses and I am doing this at my own risk.

At some point i picked up a used Momo steering wheel and hub since the stock one was disgusting and beat to shit. Sorry for the iphone photo


At this point I had been driving the car around for a few weeks and was tired of the horrible alignment so I decided it was time to order more suspension pieces.
I went with the Isis arm kit from Enjuku along with solid rear subframe bushings and PoweredByMax solid rack bushings. This should stiffen it up alot and give me a good alignment.




Taking out the rear subframe for the first time by yourself is a pain. I will never attempt this again its deff alot easier with two people.


September sometime is when all the suspension went in, I finally get the subframe back into the car and go to bolt my coilovers in and I cant get them to fit. They dont fit with the RUCAs that I ordered. Luckly Enjuku is a good company and allowed me to return them and get Circuit sports. Thanks Enjuku. The car was off the road for atleast a week but with all the new suspension pieces it was a blast to drive.

Next came more interior. I dont have any great photos of it installed yet but I will get some soon. I got tired of the stock 90's grey cloth and wanted something nicer/cleaner. I found this material at Joanns fabric and it worked awesome


So thats it really I went and took some photos today with my other camera I will go through them and throw some photos up. Sorry for the long post. I know theres going to be some negative and hopefully some positive comments but I cant wait to hear them either way.
