'95 240sx, good first time engine upgrade?
I recently bought a used s14 (w/80k + lotsa options for $5700). I want to start out with a new intake kit, so what do you guys suggest? Im on a budget so Im looking for best "bang for the buck".
Im thinkin a Weapon-R cold air intake with ram air kit ($325). Weapon-r says thats good for a 25-30% increase in power...

Dont go Weapon R...get the Injen Intake w/Cold Air Extension piece...the Intake is 189 plus the extension (unfortunately sold separately) is 99 at www.enjukuracing.com You should also look here and see what you find or shop around for a better price...this is just to give you an idea of the amount you'll save and the fact that the whole system gives you 15rwhp (so says Injen)
www.240sx.org (classifieds) www.freshalloy.com (classifieds) www.thepartstrader.com (under Nissan other) www.eBaymotors.com (under parts and accesories and then search for 240SX) Just word of note...dont buy from Injen direct since their prices are considerably higher. Have fun. |

I agree, go with Injen. I saw a dyno with a 240 with only the Injen intake before, I'll try and find it again.

I'm looking for an 89-93 S13 240 but they are all either to expensive for me right now, or they have a million miles on them.
The only one that I have called on and am planning to go check out right now is a 91 240 SX w/ 136k miles, 5 speed, new clutch, new paint, new tires and the guy is asking 2800 obo. I have no idea what shape the body is in. If it looks nice then I'll most likely make him an offer on it

No way, the injen cold air goes for about $230, and the extension for 120. Were can you find it for 189? By the way, what is the purpose of teh extension? Why get it?

does that intake really do add 15 horses at the wheels? i find that kind of hard to believe, cuase unless i see some dyno figures or any site with that number claimed i would definitly run out to buy it after my S14 comes back from the shop this friday.
