Not my scene...

But, it is a really neatly finished, great looking Hot Rod.

The attention to detail is good, the finish well done, and the entire car well balanced between paint, mild body work, trick wheels etc.

Classic modified car.

Hopefully the Go is as good as the Show.

The car is definatly fast. The RB26DETT used is the 2.6L Twin turbo I-6 found in the Nissan Skyline GTR and it is mated to a GTS tranny so that the car is still RWD. That particular RB dyno'd somewhere is the high 600rwhp range. Why else would you need brakes so big? lol

Again, not the way I'd spend money on a car. Weird wheels. I'll take a stock Japanese Silvia S15 Spec-R thanks very much.

wow, this has got to be one of the best looking 240sx's ive seen. obviousy i really quick car, with the rb25DETT and all, and a very clean exterior (very unususal these days for a 240, lol). i see riced up 240s all over the place, but i wish i saw more like these.

Whoa that must be a real rocket I don't think there would be much around that would touch it in a straght line or a corner! I've seen a rb25det in a s13 that was realy realy quick but never a rb26dett conversion like this realy nice
