I agree with the guy above who tells you to make sure you read over the FSM a couple times before diving into it. It’s honestly not very difficult at all. The 240sx is a great car to get started on. Another great thing about these cars is the endless amounts of online write-ups available to help in ...

Well since you asking opinions, I think its obviously a radical idea with some very solid thinking. When I wrecked my first 240, all I could think about was getting a z32 tt. There great looking cars, and come with a lot of "way ahead of its time" technology built right into the DNA. The o...

When you have to get your cylinder head milled, you have to get the top front cover milled. Although, I never had any issues with my lower front cover (oil pump) when I got my block decked. I assume the lower piece is the one your asking about? If so, it would kind of make since, but im not sure jus...

Hey, very nice set of parts man. Going to be one sick ride. Kind of funny, your setup is strangly close to mine :shock: My car was a auto when I got her as well.

No i dont believe so as the trq settings in the JGSTOOLS guide are for more or less factory FSM style install, which i dont believe use any kind of assembly lube.
