240sx S15 conver. on cover of Import Tuner July 02! :)

Anyone check out the July 2002 issue of Import tuner cause a '95 240sx with an S15 conversion is on the front! Hellz Yeah! Its pretty awesome, ill try to scan some of the pics and the poster if I get time. The guy also put in an SR20det S13 engine and did a lot of other shit. Personally I don't like the gold metallic color, but at least its something different so...kudos to that.

I'll have to pick that issue up... I don't usually read Import Tuner (more into SCC and Turbo magazine), but if its got a nice 240, I'll check it out

i think ricky chu's S14 with the S15 looks better. plus hes dont it a while ago. and hes swaped in his motor twice. first he had a S13 swaped in. then he got serious and swaped a S15 motor in. you should recoginize it when you see it. its a dark blue 97 with a bomex kit and advan rims. this guy seems to have went cheap and just put in a S13 motor with hardly any mods.

and just incase if you didn't know who ricky chu is. hes is a staff member of super street.

I just found it on his web site and it does look a lot better. Do you know how fast it runs cause it didn't say there.

IMO Ricky's looks OK...much respect to him, he was one of the 1st with the s15 front end. I like Julia Phan's 1996 much better!!! CLICK HERE FOR JULIA'S SIL

Chu's 1995

Yeah I love ricky chu's 240. IMO it's the best looking one I've ever seen.

I don't realy like Julia's Drift bumper.

Has anyone seen the conversion on a hatch yet? I only found about 3 cars. (the bomex one J had as sig; one from an FAQ; and one I don't remember where it's from)

S15 front end conversion for the 89-93 240sx hatch by a Company called "West Yokohama" its nice and $2136 everything you see with out headlights(i would think)......Click Here!! I only have 1 problem with S15 kit. It's Fiberglass. I'd rather have metal so I'm leanin tward the S13 sil-conv on my hatch. It will only run about $1500 - with everything

Thanks JDMEddie!

I only need the conversion fenders (front bumper would be fine either). Hood and headlights I'll go for OEM!

Someone had any feedback about that West Yokohama Kit?

JDMEddie · #12 07-26-2002, 04:03 PM

Thats taka kaira....let me know how it goes

Bean Bandit · #13 07-26-2002, 07:08 PM

Well seems like it's going to take a while as most (inc. TakaKaira) don't ship to Europe themself so I have to find some one whould gets the parts and ships them. And if I don't earn some money 'till October I'll be short for the conversion

TatII · #14 07-27-2002, 09:44 AM

hmmmmmmmm julia seems to have a turboed KA instead of a geniue SR20DET. correct me if i'm wrong. but hey i'm not complaining. any girl who can whoop my ass in a race is fine with me. that is until it starts gettin annoying and i lost all my manhood and pride.
