Hello Everyone,
My name is Cory, I live in Youngstown Ohio and own a home built 1989 Nissan 240sx with a Nissan RB26/30 conversion (R32 GTR head on a Holden Commodore bottom end – AU car only). I also have begun to love fabrication and am just starting to learn how to tig weld which is perfect for my car hobby because now most everything I hated about my setup is getting fixed with properly homemade parts to suit.

The car is essentially a 100% street car, its half gutted from the seats back, full interior seats forward. Its raw and a drivers car IMO. I have no ABS, AC, PS (converted my rack to a manual) or another other driver aids. The car has gone 10.84@132.5 on pump gas with a old school PTE6765, the video is posted below, feel free to browse through my other videos I have a few. (go-pro sound pickup on the outside of my car does not do it justice…) The car gets driven everyday its not wet out, or potentially going to be wet out. I almost wrecked it last year just cruising @ 50mph with my ET streets.. it’s not worth the risk. I average 250-350 miles on it a week roughly, its a blast to drive.
The reason I joined was because I felt I was too close to a good car scene not to. I plan to make a few weekend visits to C-bus this summer and maybe even run National Trials. I also here a large number of you come up closer to my way every so often so I figured it would be nice to get acquainted.
