I hope you did this because of financial reasons rather then spontaneous thoughts. Yaris and a beat up S-chassis for a 350.. Whatever though, i'm sure you have left over cash to throw into the S.

no, i don't think the shifter is a 240 thing.......this one has dual action! I like to call this photo the <br>"shocker".

notice the big wet stain outline on the left side of the passenger seat. someone got the "shocker" <br>treatment.

and no, this would not be my Z.

No offense but trading in your Z for the cars you have now is like me dating a really hot girl . dumping her and then to just date two ugly ones...

I've been working on S13s for 8 years now. Not necessarily a 240 thing

Nice project, though. I think I read that you were going to turbo the KA. Are you going to do a DOHC swap, or turbo the single cam?

Idk yet... gonna go a year just on the plain ka24e engine and then I'm thinking either turbo the single cam or do a sr swap.

listen the yaris lets me go 2 weeks on a full tank and it costs me $40 on 87 to fill her up, the z cost me $60 a week and that was only about 3/4 of the tank. My payments are $100 lower, my insurance is $40 lower, my milage is 40k lower, and I actually have a warrenty that'll last me 6-7 year compared to having none. You tell me where I went wrong other than loosing all that pimp factor, lol. Oh I'm 21(just turned) not some 31 year old guy w/ a full time job making 60k+ a year. I'm gonna be back in a Z once I get a full time job after college anyway so who caresif I'm w/o a z for a coupple of years.

Ay sus!!!!!!!!! You went from one good car to a super ugly dd and a busted up 240. It would've been wise to at least have 2 decent cars that would've been equal to the 350z.
S14 and a possibly a used Altima or something. I know you must have at least a little regret seeing those cars instead of the Z. You know what I'm saying? I've thought about this kind of thing for the past 2 years and I know how you feel about finances as I been there before too, but... I think this swap was a major flop. Not trying to be rude or anything.

Personally, you should've kept the Z, modded it but still daily drivable without the headaches.

i don't mind if you traded it up for a car or suv with room, but now you have two cars that can't pick up 2 people in the airport with 4 luggage's. You would have gotten away with the yaris, but nope. :/
