Trying to determine whether my SUV originally had factory third-row seating package

invalid@example.com (NEO) — Mon, 08 Jun 2026 23:42:33 +0000

Hi guys, my SUV has a third row of seats, but I’m not sure whether that was standard or part of an optional seating configuration when it was new. Some versions seem to come with different interior layouts depending on how they were ordered. Since I bought the vehicle used, I don’t have original paperwork. Would the window sticker clearly identify third-row seating packages and interior configuration options?

Hey guys another nooB to add to the forums. Looking to purchase a 240SX soon and just joining the forums to use the search button about 8 million times until I figure this stuff out. If you know anyone selling an S13 type 240 any condition I'm in. I got a daily driver that will never die so the 240 will be a project car.

This is not a project, it is a proper fully built car that is extremely reliable. I built this for daily use with some track day experiences.
The only reason I am selling is because I have been offered a full track car that I plan to purchase later this year.

I purchased this stock s13 in June 2018
I fully rebuilt and installed the LS1 with stock T56 transmission in January 2019 with my friend that is a professional mechanic.

Dizzy Settings KA24DE

invalid@example.com (NEO) — Sat, 06 Jun 2026 03:11:24 +0000

Ive been looking but decided to ask here to see if someone can tell me how to set your Dizzy if you pulled it out and car was cranked. Correct ne if im wrong.
1-Do you have to set the Crankshaft Pulley To DTC which is the second mark from left to right at combustion (Am I right?) (Piston number 1 UP) Then line up your dizzy markings then inserted straight in and rotor will spin a little and come up pointing at around 9 or 10 Oclock? Or do you have to do it at the 20 degree marking.

Hey there, I'm sorta new to the Nissan scene. My first car was 1990 Toyota Celica GT-FOUR A that I had while I was out in Okinawa. Moved back to the States and now I own a 1990 240SX. My aspirations are big for this car, and can't wait to build it up to my goals.

Have a 95 240sx Kouki swapped bought it from a guy who said it was in a small accident. Basically a lifted trunk hit it while reversing. Anyways it has a different trim trunk won’t sit flush at all has huge gaps on left side and smaller gap on right side. Can’t even open trunk from inside lever. I have to press down on my trunk and open it with my key. It also jumps when I’m driving. Any help or recommendations to get it to sit properly?

Boost Leak? Need pics of your guy's engines!

Hey everyone, I live in Japan and I just bought a 180SX with a SR20DET
The car is not reaching boost at all. Vacuum, sure. But my gauge is showing that it never crosses into boost ever and soon as it does, the car runs terrible, luggs, and sometimes dies, sometimes resurrects itself, but obviously an issue.

My guess right now is that there is a massive boost leak, but I have no idea where all these pipes go and what they go into. Does anyone have a thorough diagram of the engine bay or have...

Hello!
New 240SX owner checking in. Essentially, I won this 240SX in a raffle. It is a 1995 240SX with a Kouki front end and an SR20 from an S13. It is wrapped, white underneath. Lowered on coil overs.
Runs and drives fine (Has a nice conservative tune on the stock turbo). Just needs some TLC.
I am new to this platform, I have wanted a 240SX since I was 18 (35 now) but the prices always kept me away. So I figure, this is my chance!
I am open to any tips and websites and any other advice you...

I really want to restore it and I tried to drive it home once but the clutch pedal goes straight to the floor ( no pressure ), I tried fixing it but failed and I really need to go back and lift the car up for a 2nd look. It was drivable when I parked it many moons ago.

Hey guys,
So I've been a long time lurker of this site and several other 240sx related websites; Ive always wanted to do an sr20det swap but never really had the money to do it.

I originally picked up an s13 coupe when I was first introduced to the import scene; I was about 19 years old and I thought "Oh, Ill just get a 240 and then save up 2 grand and drop an SR in there!", haha wow, I was misinformed. I ended up having to get rid of the s13. Now, 5 years later, I realize that it was...

Hi.

After a few months of getting my other half to say ok to this project, I am finally starting on getting this S14 to work again. I have received this 240 from my mother as she used to drive it and it was the car I used during my college years. Unfortunately, it wasn't being used for about a year and when I opened the hood to look at it, it was pretty gross as rats ate the wiring on the KA.

Using that as an excuse, I am planning on doing the SR20DET swap. For now, here's some pics of...

Finally got my 1990 s13 running. The previous owner replaced the power steering lines and replaced the pump but there is no power steering at all. It almost feels like it’s worse at higher RPM. I never came across anything like this. The rack does not leak and the pump does not whine. There’s a picture of how the lines were hooked up, is it possible they are reversed?
