Identity crisis if you ask me... 7m-gte engine, z33 front, s14 back and a fugly body kit to go with it.... sure it's unique, but, oh soooo, ugly!

at first im like its a 350  them im like no.. then wtf lol  then seen it had a yota heart

i think that the dude that did this custom knows how to do a good custom build.  wheel wells line up properly, body panels seem to match up well, and overall imo its not that ugly.

it looks like a quality job, as xano stated
And it is unique (wasnt that true of quasimoto as well?)

but

its still so ugly i dont even know if its mother could love it.

i dont really like the z33 front end. i know they looked to the 240 for inspiration for the rear, but they {nissan} fudged up the front.

When being the ONLY ONE is all that matters.

This is just about what you have to do to be original with a 240.

i rather blend in then be original if this is the case...give me a seafoam green s13 coupe with sil front end and fno1rcs as opposed to that monstrosity.

Nice work, but terrible concept. Like he never had any direction with the car. Just lots of money to spend.

Can't comment on the work, it may just sit in a garage most of the time.

its awesome

I like the concept, but the kit is horrid. The Toyota engine is stupid as well. A RB is easier and belongs to the same family. I don't know about other parts of the country, but it is different to have a "silvia" or "sil-80" around my area. Not too many running around just like the S12. Most have been drift bitches and thus, the 240SX is getting rare (around here). Although I don't like this particular swap, I do admire the guys commitment and wanting something original.

I'd rock the fuck out that lol ugly or not and that car would smoke everylast car on here as well as most in the street. Give me power over beauty anyday....

I agree that the 7M can be a badass engine........In a Supra.

If you want to be realistic  rb doesnt belong in a 240 either. I love people pushing the limit different swaps who cares if its a different manufacturer. That car is super ugly though imo but being creative and original is what the car scene is about.

tommyNov 6, 2010, 6:21 pm · #17

I don't like the 7M even in a supra... those things like to pop head gaskets all the time, the are stupidly heavy... I'd rock a 3SGTE in there or even more a 3/4TGTE if I were to swap a toyota engine in a 240sx at least you don't swap a very heavy four cyl for an even heavier six.... or you can just add a couple more bux and get a 1/2jz and still get a 6 and not ruin the balance...

but hey kudos for the build, the works involved is tremendous and it looks like professional work to, but there is no harmony what so ever between all the different mods on the car, which make it looks like shit... although it is probably pretty fast but i'd never rock that shit no matter how much power it makes, it's an eyesore
