240SX Modifications: Power Isn't Everything
Вставка

- How a bare-bones commuter Nissan 240SX became boosted and BMW-blue.
The Nissan 240SX has long been a popular choice for car enthusiasts looking to build a drift machine. In this video, we take a closer look at a modified 240SX that holds a special place in owner Dan's family. Passed down through the generations, this car has undergone numerous modifications to become the unique and powerful machine it is today. Is it perfect? Is the surgery done? Only a drive will tell.
Thank you @tire.man.dan

You know you’re a real car guy when you have a fully built 240sx and your fav mod is the lights
preach!
This is the way.
Super clean, stop smacking your legs though lol 😂
haha my bad, didnt even realize!
@@Xcomp_Tires just poking fun man, jealous of the ride
Damn man why you gotta go and break the glass wall 😂
Lmao
The s14 was just a beautiful car all around.
Take a shot everytime the guy slaps his leg.
I’m so wasted right now
9:38 for a road car like this I’d just get an OEM S15 Torsen diff rather than a 1.5-way
Wow this is super clean! Very well put together and that’s so rare for a s14 to only have one owner 🤯
thank you!!
@@Xcomp_Tires sweet car man and even more cool backstory. Fellow central Jersey boy here in Trenton, don't see too many s14 here.
@@Xcomp_Tires clean whip
@@JsDs1020 grew up right down the road in Plainsboro!
Don't call it S14. It's Silvia!!!
I'm jealous my Dad didn't have a 95 240SX to give to me... This is the model body style I've been wanting. This one is very tastefully done. OEM+ builds that work are the best🏆
We got ourselves a knee slapping hand talker.
Simply Gorgeous. A masterclass in "less is more".
thank you!
Dude....i usually hate the way that the normal guys make the s14 and s13 look, but dude this is actually tasteful. Looks fantastic....normally they look dumb for example adam lz usually makes beautiful cars look dumb. I love the LZ guy but good lord this is how its done my guy.
thank you, appreciate the kind words!
The only thing I would change would be the wheel paint.
Anything but black tbh
By dumb do you mean with a body kit?
@@nothinghere7391 these are blue, but I feel you!
they always ruin the lines with bodykits🤢
Lovely car. Personally I’d run smaller wheels.
10:14 Dan is like, ‘I think it’s you’ hahaha classic
hahaha!
And then when he drove on the driveby, he did the same thing! lol
@@TheSmokingTire Omg!! That’s hilarious 😂
@@TheSmokingTire Omg!! That’s hilarious 😂
@@TheSmokingTire cmon Zack, just push that clutch in. 😂😂
thats a cool dad and keeping it all these years
he is the best
@@Xcomp_Tires greets from Bosnia best of luck
LOL My guy Dan looks a bit like Lucas Black from Tokyo Drift.
hahaha!
Love it when a guy keeps is car so long and takes good care of it , i respect a lot that , bravo for that beautyfull car
Thank you very much!
Best mod's for S14's: 1) Rear locking collars for the subframe (or solid) 2) Coil-overs. Totally changes how the car handles, and stops it from feeling like it's tucking it's front wheel underneath itself when turning fast. Plus you get some beautiful trans noise coming through after the rear axle is hardened.
bruh even in my s13 WITH coilovers it would make me feel like the tread was rolling over, I thought I was going crazy
@@johnbarg2326probably not adjusted correctly. Not a slight-most people don’t know how to set up their suspension properly (I don’t either).
@@shittywheelies7403 if you'd seen that car, you'd know it wasn't set up correctly from 50' tbf 😭🤣
@@johnbarg2326 hahaha are you sure this wasn’t one of my cars? 😂
Definitely inspiring me to finish my S14 and keep it forever
Awesome car, simple but clean!
thanks!
Perfect proportions, classic shape and the mods accentuate it so well, incredible work.
I love the simplicity and neatness of this build. Jersey represent!
I miss the S14 I had. They're are brilliant car, and the SR20DET is so easy to mod & make power.
I remember this guy from the DDE vids!
that is me lol...
Thanks Dan for letting us hear your cars story, Rj in Oz
thanks for watching!
Great looking example of the car and its balanced and not just alot of power thrown at it. Cool video and the owner was chill
thank you!
Car sounds great on the outside. I'd install high end Bose to deal with droning when not bombing cyns. I had the hatchback previous iteration of 240sx, my fav car ever owned. SR20 came stock with Ti Con Rods so kinda like 1JZ built to be built
Gorgeous S14! Love the glass headlights!
thank you!
Underrated car
Princeton junction 10 minutes from me! Car looks good!
thank you!!
I wish One Take did more modded cars like they did years ago...But I also understand many of the modded ones were barely held together
God this brings back memories, had almost exact same setup from Koyo rad to GReddy intercooler & exhaust, even Kouki side skirts! I dropped in an S13 SR in since it was in cherry condition (
The only thing I can hear is the sound of the owner slapping his legs.
This guy is playing pat-a-cake.
lol nerves were kicking in...
@@Xcomp_Tires I didn’t even notice it, these guys are just being picky lol
Love Dan
What a beautiful car
thank you!
this guys looks like if at the end of tokoyo drift they were like 'it was based on a true story and this is him'
haha get me an acting job!
Awesome build! One tip for the diff, don't make the mistake I did, when you setup the 1.5 way set it to 80% or 60%, not 100% it makes it too aggressive for street driving.
6:28 Wow, rear brakes are hilariously small
little stock boys in the rear! haha...
Back in 2004, my friend bought a used 280sx for $2200. It was clean and low mileage too. It was a cool car, but it’s far from being this “amazing” car that all these kids make it out to be. It’s just a regular car people. Get over it!
Not upgrading the dif kind of got me stumped
getting a 1.5 next week, thanks to this video! haha...
@@Xcomp_Tires Time to party ;)
SiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiCK
A beauty
Damn, Mr famous now Dan 😘😂
The Main Man Tire.Man.Dan
The guy looks so much like the main actor from tokyo drift
hahahaha whoops!
I'm still looking for a clean late 90's 240sx just for this reason I want a clean weekend car
very early 2000's with the door graphics, needs some better wheels though that are more period correct
Got some Gram Lights in storage, but support my buddies at WheelPros (Motegi)
I've owned like 13 240s and I still look back everytime I park it
This guy is a tank
The only thing missing would be a Neo head but since you have aftermarket cams its not really needed. The Ganadors are sick, and you can use them as a IRA account now.
But the VVL kick tho... :)
appreciate it!
@@Xcomp_Tires never let her go man, Merry Christmas 🎄 🤙🏻
@@BrettS98 Merry Christmas to you as well brotha!
This thing is screaming for a engine bay resto if he's keeping it forever. Wicked car.
This a new go pro? Video quality is better
Laguna Seca Blue?
Yup!
No one talks about the knee slapping?😂 Had my AuDHD brain lose focus and now I’m typing this comment😂
why did i think this was some sort of small displacement v8 lol. it doesnt sound like an SR at all from the first couple clips.
thanks to Tomei!
"that's such a bummer that the drift tax happened..." "correct" hehe correct take
“Not a big book reader” tied to “watching cars out the window.”
… okay.
ok watched the entire video. I eat my words, thats one bad ass bisch! I would put a proper LSD in that though.
Beautiful car, but I'm partial to blue, one day my 91 vert will look this good.
Always will take a Zenki front end over Kouki
Agreed!!

Since you guys have 1 million subs now, can you please get Matt a better mic for the adds? Sounds like he’s in a tin plated bathroom with the gain on high.
The next two strains Im releasing are going to be called "Idiot Savant" and " Abuse your Daily" lol gold.
Excuse my ignorance, but what Japanese brand is this,,,nissan??
yup! 1995 Nissan 240sx
It’s called a Silvia in Japan
He looks familiar
Zach you're evil 😹😹😹
how much RWHP ??
9:00
Not quite enough for 2 dudes.
If I had a nickel for everytime he smacks his leg i could easily buy that car
Where's Matt?
Christ he must have a lot of bruises on his thighs
Who are you paying for these thumbnails? Look at what others are doing please.
Dude. Zack’s face at like 3:15-3:16. Priceless. Lol!! I imagine he is thinking: “well that is completely impossible and not very wise, but alrighty”. Lol
