A little history.

This is my autoblog.

I will use it to chronicle the long term build of my 1995 Nissan 240SX SE.

I bought this car in May of 2003. When I got the car it was completely stock except for a cone style air filter, it had about 102,000 miles on the clock and it was still running strong. For almost a year I accumulated parts. Stock it stayed until April of 2004, a persistent oil leak and a grinding transmission told me the time had finally come. Out came the Tired KA24, 48 hrs ,a few bloodied knuckles, and way too much fast food later a red top SR20DET was nestled comfortably between the frame rails. After messing with the wiring hell, and an improperly aligned cam angle sensor my baby roared to life. In the 70,000 miles since installation I have had no major issues with the motor and I have continued to add parts too it
