The S15 front..... well I heard it goes for 2 to 3 grand, which is a rip off, but I could get them for about 1.2 grand. Turbo upgrade? Hmmm... another 2 grand right? So that comes out to 20 grand total. But thats only if you're patient enough to shop right.
And you do not need to upgrade the turbo on the SR20DET engine. The stock turbo alone can withstand a safe limit of 15 psi of boost. IF you maintain your turbo right.
My favorite car? 90-93 USDM Fastback 240SX, with a S13 SR20DET. Adjustable race(not drag) coil overs, JDM 95-96 180 SX tail lights, and either a S14 or S15 custom fitted front. Toss in the basic bolt on's, with a Recaro bucket seat, and a front mount intercooler, and a LSD, new paint job..... wire mesh rims, mmm... lets see.... stock is 15 inches I think? So maybe 16's.... maybe, but the bigger the tire, the less rotation they will do.
And I swear if I see any kids "drifting" in the mountain side, or just doing plain stupid shit with other people around, I'm gonna ram the idiots off of the road. If your car is FF you're not drifting, you're ass draggin. And if you still insist to "drift" in the mountain area, at least practice in an empty parking lot first. Or better yet, just take it to the track.
okay fine.. who here can do an engine conversion? who wants a shitty jdm conversion 240??.. besides.. i'd pay that extra money to get the nice painted front end.. which u forgot so ...bbam twenty grand!!!!
and flo.. u said FULL jdm conversion.. not just front end jdm conversion or sr20 engine conversion.. FULL conversion.. when u say that we automatically assume u want the jap engine and jap front end.. not just some show car.. aight??? i still think 20 grand is impossible.. but prove me wrong dudes.. i would like to see it.. d=) haha.. what am i saying.. i need twenty bucks for food..
