Yep, I'm going to wait until March or so when it starts to clear up again to get the tires on. That way, I'll have the rest of Spring and Summer to play around. Other then that, there's really nothing planned until then.
Um, my friend and I are going to enter a Time Distance Rally this January, so that should be cool

And here I was, thinking "Hey, this guy has a 240, something cool is gonna happen in this video", and it never came.
Do love my GoPro though, just wished it filmedbetter at all at night.

I'll have some of the 240 come soon, that was just some test runs to work.
I agree with the night part, I filmed a whole road at night, and it looked pretty bad. Oh well, it will bring much fun for awhile.

What model of GoPro is that? Have you compressed it? The quality is pretty crap, I was planning on buying an HD Hero 2 and I was expecting better quality than that...

I have the Hero 2. It's crappy quality because Youtube sets it up at 360p right off the bat. Change it to 720 and it'll get better. I haven't messed around a lot yet, but I can get it u to 1080.

I still have the original HD Hero, not the Hero 2. I heard the Hero 2 films much better at night. If yours did poorly, then that gives you an idea of how bad mine films at night.

Yea, my night video wasn't too great, but it was on a dirt road so there wasn't too much light aside from my headlights.
So today is 1/3, and what does that mean? It's S Chassis month in the Speedhunters world. They're asking for people to send in their cars to celebrate (?) the day. I made it in the first batch.

Thanks guys. It's pretty cool, but I only made it because of the order we sent them in. But either way it's cool to see it on there.

Yea, it was cool to see.
So my dad and I decided to have a little fun today.
The GoPro finally met the 240. I know the video is pretty lame, but I could not get it to hook up and I didn't want to piss my neighbors off too much.
Which then followed by a photoshoot.

Great pics mate, lovely car. Something fresh after all these bnsports/326power/vertex stuff.

Are you implying that a stock bodied 240sx is less common than one with Bnsports/326power/vertex?
Nismo, You need a pair of snow tires. They make all the difference, I was driving an open diff 240 in 7 inches of snow.

Yup,
nah what i mean is, i haven't ever seen an s-chassis done with this styling. And thats a good thing, because seeing the same kits on these cars with the same wheels is getting really boring imo.

I'm assuming you see 240s mainly online on "stance" websites, because stock bodied 240sx are by far the most common variation of 240, in both general "around town" situations, and track events. Same goes for pretty much every other car ever made....JKcreativeworks

No tires, yet. Not knowing when it will or snow or not, it keep putting it off. But I took it out for a bit. Aside from that, nothing has changed. I like fog though, so I wanted to get some pictures for fun.

He's not keeping steelies. He has wheels, but no tires for them yet, like he mentioned in the post.

I think this took too long, but it's finally done.

I didn't realize how much different they would be.
Finally!! by E_Delaney, on Flickr
Ah, now the exterior is just about done. All I need is to get it painted and we should be done.
Done by E_Delaney, on Flickr
As soon as I finished, it started to rain like it always does when I have something planned so I should have more pictures later. The good news though, it doesn't seem like it'll rub, after I took out the front wells, the scraping was gone.

Don't forget to relocate the fender harness or one day you'll hit a big dip and rip it apart.

I think most of us will agree knock off's are bad, but it's useless to try to fight it. Everything is copied in some way or another, watches, purses, shoes, guitars, sports team apparel, etc. If people want to buy knock off car parts, it's on them since you do typically get what you pay for with a lot of things.
