just a sexy car, i can't stand the early 240s, but that one is extremely sexy, add to it the benefits of the RB, AWD and its an amazing piece of engineering.

LIAR!!! I daily drove a RHD Integra for 3 years. You just wanted a badass sleeper.

BTW, all my crap is for sale, I need a 240. </TD></TR></TABLE>

which part of this car screams sleeper to you the most? the ginormous front mount, the aux oil coolers, the fender flares, or the realy large "FULL-RACE" stickers? haha

awesome car, i know ill be flamed for asking but how much would a conversion like this run? assuming the 240 is being provided minues all other parts needed. just curious, even a ballpark would be cool. im thinking 10k?

I just saw this on another forum and a link to this. http://www.full-race.com/r14/
I truly think it's an incredible bargain for how much the roller conversion costs and luckily for those who have a little patience, you guys can also provide them with any driveline parts they may need.

Sidenote: You have PM.

Awesome.

Does ASU do a lot of aerospace/controls & systems engineering? I'll be graduating from here next year and probably looking for PhD programs...

This is of course a great project car and agree its worth some value in the states.

But I have to say driving a RHD car in the U.S. is not a big deal, takes maybe a week or two and then your going through taco bell's unbuckling and reaching over to throw change at the lady in the window.

Great job and lets see what this thing runs in 1/4mile and how it handles on a road track.

Beyond gorgeous and still functional. That engine bay is clean as hell. PS/Oil coolers are ingenuitive. I guess the airflow is still good?

AWSOME, I was shocked with a full-race setup like this, I was always asking myself when are companies going to finally realize that the skyline world needs some good quality north american support because with personal experience the hks, jun, greddy, etc manifolds are crap. Im soon going to be dropping in a rb30 combo into my skyline and was really considering using the full-race setup because of what they have done with the honda world and sell the cstom top mount manifold off my rb20 setup.

Anywho my question being how do you find lag with the GT42R? Im in search for a different turbo as well as I would think my precision sc-50 wont cut it on my new setup. And if you ever make it up to Canada for whatever reasons make sure you add Winnipeg Manitoba to your stops, the skyline scene is somewhat booming here and there are a few fun GTR's here im sure you can take for a ride.

Im really interested to see how everything holds up, BTW is that a R32 block? If so first thing thats going to fail is the oil pump because of the crank collar. Keep extra fuel for #6 cylinder because thats the one that seems to always lean out because of the stock intake manifold after 500whp ish.

And I love your car.

Man beautiful car... I come from a pretty big nissan backround. Ive owned


93 sentra xe
86 na 300zx
85 turbo 300zx
90 twin turbo 300zx
94 twin turbo 300zx
93 twin turbo 300zx


But since ive gotten into honda's i can honestly say theres times i miss my 94 z because of how it looked and how quick it was. I since have owned a few hondas but the one im currently working on is goin to be the one that puts my old Z to shame. But yea... Congrats on the 240, its beautiful. Id track it to see what it runs and dyno it to see what it does and from there just drive the **** out of it. How much did that end up costing you?

blow up the stock motor, then put a 2j in it and keep the awd and everything you have in it now. THAT would be the only thing hotter than its current state.
