Hey, my names Chad, I normally post over on Nico and local forums but thought I'd give this place a try too. I own an '89 240 hatch that I've pretty much tore down to a bare shell and began fixing all the nasty Minnesota rust spots and other fun. Oh and there's been a lot of rust , I've had to cut out and replace a large section of the floor panel, rocker panels, driver side wheel well, and the driverside frame rail. Everything so far is being replaced with fresh sheet metal welded in place.
The previous owner didn't have a clue what he was doing and I've spent the past year fixing his mistakes and doing body work. My plans are to repaint it this coming spring. Until then I've finally gotten around to upgrading stuff. This winter I'm tackling the suspension, brakes, differential and maybe wheels if my funds allow it.
Then later down the line the KA-E is going bye bye and a motor swap will be in the works. Nothing set in stone yet, but I've researched all the possibilities and I think it'll come down to an RB25 or 2jz.
