New Member: NY & PA

[Automato]

Sup everyone, I'm new here. I go to RIT and live in FL so I'm around NY and PA during school and some of the breaks. I used to live in Lancaster, PA and still have family there so I visit quite often. I've got a black '89 240sx hatchback. For those of you that know Nissans, I have an S13 Silvia front end conversion along with the 180sx taillights. I've got a Redtop SR20det swap in the car as well. (aka Sil-eighty) I have a few power mods but the engine and turbo are just stock. My 2-way LSD is awesome and definitely helps me put power to the ground.

This car is my daily as well as an on-going project. If you guys see me around, stop and chat, its always nice to get to know fellow car enthusiasts. I ran a best time of 12.8 @ 111.3 mph last October at a track in Rochester, NY. Dynoed at 277whp, 269 wtq on 15psi with 91 octane (bought and tuned in Socal where pump gas stops at 91). Here are some pictures and videos from the last SCCA Autocross at RIT.

Since these pictures, the car has changed a little. I now have a Zenki front lip on the car. This coming spring, I plan on upgrading the turbo so I should be well into the high 300 range on hp and well into the 11's. I'm also looking on getting wider wheels because I have to much traction issues. If you guys know of anyone that wants to trade for my two sets of wheels, let me know. I have a 5 lug conversion so my two sets of wheels are 17" forged mesh-style Works wheels and 16" skyline r32 gts wheels. i'm looking for a straight up trade with something at least 8.5" wide on the rears.

First time on a track with this car and rwd. I got a little throttle happy and didn't run good times, but I had a great time.

Last run of the day, had my roommate so I was just going for a fun run.

sweet, sounds good. when i come back to PA in march to pick up my car, i plan to bring back a gt2871r with me. i'll definitely look to you guys for a dyno tune. could you pm me your rates on a typical dyno tune. i have an apexi powerfc.

i'm also looking on getting wider wheels. i've got too much traction issues with the current ones already. i'm looking to trade and add a little money of top of my two sets of wheels, 17" Forged Meshstyle Works and 16" Skyline GTS wheels. i've seen you post on zilvia.net with some sweet wheels, so maybe when i get back in town, we could work something out.
