Hey everyone,

I suppose it's time I make an intro thread, haha.

Well my name is Scott and I am from Minneapolis, MN. I've been into rotaries for a while, and back in 2004 I was on the verge of buying a FD when fate intervened and I came across a spotless 240sx with low miles and a low price that I couldn't pass up. Needless to say I was strayed away until finally last year I parted out my s13 and bought a 93 FD.

Here's a pic of my s13 in it's prime:
1989 s13 coupe, VH45DE engine, etc.... (the blue one)


And here is a picture of the FD I bought... I think some of you may recognize it... it's Shredder's old car.

Day it came off the truck from California (far cry from what it looked like before):


I fixed a bunch of little things that were wrong and bugging me... leaking axel seal, broken rear wheel stud, pin hole leak in the radiator, etc, etc...

Then put my Bride Zeta III in, put Shine Auto FEED style side skirts on:
At a local drift event I organized:



Tried a set of my friend's Sparco's on just for fun:


Then I picked up a set of matte black Advan RG-D's (18x10 (F) and 18x10.5 (R)):


Don't have a still pic of these yet... I'll have to do that when the snow melts...

Future plans with the car include:
Driving it and maintenance.

Need to address a few other minor things, but other than that, it will pretty much stay as is for a while.

I will probably drift it at my events and plan to participate in road course/time attack events. No plans to gut it or anything... actually planning to put the a/c back in it.

 

Hey there! Welcome! I always like to see other Minnesotans on here that can relate to the problems with weather and driving. That is a nice car! I really like the Sparcos on there. That thing will kick your 240sx's a**. Haha. Have fun with your car.

BTW, nice title. I saw it and immediately knew where you were from.

 

haha, thanks man.
