I like the color!

 

wow, looks good. I have a 2JZ powered car and it can be a long road for sure. keep it up

 

Screw the 2J, put a K-Series in it!

 

Part are pouring in on a daily basis! cant want to see this car done,.... I predict plenty fun times with this bitch!

 

Nice to see someone build a 240sx in this forum.

 

240s are where it's at. They make a great drag car. Stock suspension works very well.

 

Looks good, those guys do amazing paint work...2jz 240 ftw.

 

Josh always doing big things!

good ole Duy

BTW original poster

PMed you

 

looking good so far good luck...

 

NICE...2jz in a 240sx is a walk in the park...I'll tell you this make a baffle for the oil pan, since you will use a front sump for the swap. When you launch hard and front end picks up oil can rush to the rear and no oil for the pick-up tube.

 

What transmission and rear end are you going with?

Are you going to street it on "bigs and littles" and drag radials? I see where you were modding the rear fenders for them.

I would certainly part ways with my civic if I could start on a project like this. I am really interested in seeing the final result from this build.

 

Nice, cant wait to see the finished product

 

One of the best chassis and motor combo! What trans and turbo?

 

Damn 2j builds are taking over Miami by storm!

 

In for the rest of the build....good luck

 

Good info right there thanks never thought of that

going to use an r154 for now until i save up some cash for an auto using a q45 rear end.
lol @ bigs and littles but yes car will be on radials full time like always you just never know

 

The r154 is a great transmission but make sure you have a light weight clutch disk.. The syncros on the 154 trans are just not a strong as some others but the gear sets are pretty solid.. get the upgraded parts from Marlin crawler and its a solid trans to 700+whp..

seem like the 2j S14 swaps are getting kinda popular..

-Sam


ohh p.s. spend some time and weld up the q45 diff if you get a chance.. the vlsd wont hold up with slicks and 600+whp.. just personal experiances..
