1995 Nissan 240sx Se Sr20det Jdm S14 on 2040-cars
Tallahassee, Florida, United States
My dream, as a petrol head and a JDM faithful, was to one
day build a proper, rear wheel drive, JDM street machine. I almost did; I am a
few fingers short of finishing my dream. It is very sad I have to realize my
current priorities in hand and utterly unfortunate to announce, she has to go. When I purchased the shell she was wrecked and even dough
the radiator support, tie rods, fenders and the hood were damaged, it had an
arrow straight chassis. So of course I adopted her as my project even dough she
did not have a front end, carpet, door and interior panels, wheels, brakes, nor
an engine or drive train. Today, not only the wrecked parts have been “replaced”
(not bent back), it has been replaced professionally and with proper OEM and
performance parts. She has a full JDM Zenki front end with JDM radiator support
and JDM radiator, its fan, and even JDM A/C parts, lush carpet, clean and next
to new interior, staggered Varrstoen wheels wrapped in almost new Nexen tires,
a complete 300ZX TT brake conversion with the proper R33 skyline e-brake cable
and stainless steel lines, and of course a SR20DET with stock matching
transmission and other stock parts like all the A/C parts. But I wouldn’t even
pick any of those plus points to really tell you how I feel and know what this
S14 Silvia is now.. Only 2 words will do; “REALIABLE THRILLER!” This 1995 Nissan S14 SE has taken months of my undivided
attention and over $16k has been spent to get it to where it stands today.
Everything, except for the sunroof, has been done properly, professionally, and
with my dream on my mind at all times. By the time I got to the sunroof I was
broke. Also, I have not fiddled with a lot of its OEM integrity and
configuration resulting in a very reliable daily driver. To list what she has: ·
Full JDM Zenki front end conversation
professionally done by Better Bodies of Lamont ·
Very reliable, almost stock, but powerful S13 SR20Det
Red Top with stock matching transmission professionally installed by RPM
performance and tuning ·

Deep dish drifting steering wheel 350mm with

New thick and lush carpet ·
JDM speedo cluster with led (everything but the
speed meter works, just installed an s14 sensor and just have to hook it up) I
am not good with wiring so haven’t messed with it. ·
JDM shift boot panel, I also have JDM cup holder
that goes in the radio spot, $40 more. ·
Autometer Z Series essentials 1. Mechanical
Boost gauge. 2. Electrical water temp gauge. 3. Electrical oil pressure gauge
(not hooked up but have the hardware and you can have it). I also have a
mechanical fuel pressure gauge with stainless steel lines, $40 more. I also
have JDM Apex-i turbo timer, $40 more. ·
Re-done Headliner, sun visor’s, and rear seat in
suede type material ·
Clean and many new interior panels and parts.
The interior is full (all the panels). ·
Xexon HID’s 6000k ·
2 different types of custom lug nuts on all
wheels. Uses 2 different keys. ·
Optima red top battery and relocated in the
trunk. ·
Voltage stabilizer Also, she has undergone some weight reduction so you won’t
find any speakers, as it does not have a radio and I am too busy enjoying
myself in the bends. But it does have an electric antenna which you can have
and all the radio wires have been left intact. It also has had its 30 lbs.
sunroof mechanism removed and the sunroof glass has been mounted on removable
brackets and sealed. I also have the whole sunroof mechanism assembly intact,
which works, and which comes with the car. This is the only job I tried
to tackle by myself and honestly, It doesn't look professional but its easily
fixable especially if you find a new/used glass. Also, I have a big box of goodies that
comes with the car which has all the parts to get the A/C going and a spare
alternator, brackets, hoses, stereo antenna….etc. But do not think it’s a light weight rattle box in the
cockpit. I have also installed GT mat, at select locations to give the interior
a solid feel of a refined car. So, while paying attention to the minutest
details, I have come very close to finish building a reliable, daily driven,
JDM street machine. LSD and a paint job, a few minor things like turbo timer,
and racing seats would put this car aside from all, an occasional nut case and
a daily driven JDM S14 turning heads. Her tensioner pulley’s bearing have been jammed due to
non-usage and the belt is not present, which is common since we don’t use a/c,
but the bearings are cheap and replaced easily. It’s just sad I can’t finish
this time. I got a quote from a guy, to have the a/c running it will be 500 which
include custom lines and belt and all, provided all the JDM A/C parts that goes
in it. That comes with the car! I am asking 6500. Motivated seller and looking for serious
inquiries only. Thanks for looking. you wont find a better deal. take advantage of my misfortune. P.S. I have posted a couple of videos in a hurry on youtube.

Renault-Nissan alliance to start autonomous EV testing
Mon, Feb 27 2017The Renault-Nissan alliance is joining the self-driving electric-vehicle party. The French-Japanese automaking collaboration, which has been selling electric vehicles to the masses since introducing the Nissan Leaf in 2010, said Monday that it will work with transportation-technology consultant Transdev on developing a fleet of self-driving EVs for testing purposes. The model of choice, though, won't be the Leaf, but instead will be the Renault Zoe. Details aren't abundant, but the group does say it will perform the field testing in the Paris area. Transdev's pedigree includes operating what it says is the world's first commercial driverless service at France's EDF campus. The company, which is majority-owned by Caisse des Depots, is no small potatoes, generating about $7 billion in revenue in 2015. Take a look at the alliance's statement here. The alliance has already been working with Microsoft on driving-technology advancements and has teamed up with Japan-based DeNA to hatch a driverless-vehicle initiative for commercial services. And in January, Nissan said its ProPilot features, which include increased self-driving capabilities, would be added to its Leaf EV "in the near future." Of course, other automakers have already jumped into the self-driving EV game. California-based EV maker Tesla has long been pushing its vehicle technology toward autonomy, and General Motors said in December that it would start field testing driverless Chevrolet Bolt EVs sometime this year. In the meantime, the Alliance is gearing up a changeover in leadership, as Carlos Ghosn said last week that he was stepping down as Nissan's CEO on April 1. Ghosn, long a champion of electric-vehicle technology, will be succeeded by Nissan co-CEO Hiroto Saikawa.

Recharge Wrap-up: utility sells discounted Powerwall, Nissan-Renault builds 340K EVs
Wed, Jul 6 2016Vermont electric utility Green Mountain Power is selling discounted Tesla Powerwalls to its customers in hopes of balancing the grid. The battery packs would be used not just to help customers store renewable energy for home solar systems or as backup power, but also to occasionally discharge power back to the grid when needed. In addition to this decentralized energy storage being useful to customers, it also benefits the utility by taking demand off energy generating infrastructure during periods of peak demand. The pilot project will put 500 Tesla Powerwalls in customers' homes. Learn more at Green Car Reports, or in the story from Vermont Public Radio. Together, Nissan and Renault have built 340,000 electric cars. The allied Japanese and French automakers hit 100,000 EVs in July 2013, 200,000 in November 2014, and a quarter million in June of 2015. The Nissan Leaf, which first went on sale at the end of 2010, makes up the bulk of the EVs the Renault-Nissan Alliance has sold. Renault delivered its 50,000th Zoe EV in April 2016. Leaf sales have declined in the US in recent months, due at least in part to the anticipation of the Chevrolet Bolt and Tesla Model 3. Nissan, however, is expected to update the Leaf with a 200-mile driving range in the coming years. Read more at Green Car Reports. Students at the Bearys Institute of Technology (BIT) in Karnataka, India have built what they call the Hybrid Water Car. The car uses a system to electrolyze hydrogen from water and add it to the fuel for more efficient combustion. The system has been placed into a chopped up, lightweighted Maruti Omni. While the benefits of onboard hydrogen electrolyzers have been debated for some time, the BIT students don't plan to stop there, as their next project car will be fueled completely by hydrogen.

Heley joined Tesla in November 2013 after working at Apple. Read more at Automotive News.
