Building a 600HP Nissan S14 240SX in 25 Minutes! (Single Turbo 6-Speed)

What's up TRC fam! I'd like to introduce to you my new personal project. It's a 1997 Nissan Kouki S14 and it's in need of some serious TLC! Our goal is to bring this beautiful Nissan back to life and make it an all around badass street car. With the help of close friends and partners we've made over the years we're going to restore the car on a budget, saving money where we can but keeping in mind future goals with the car. The OG TRC fans will remember my 7 second 2JZ 240, i parted ways with that car about 6 years ago and i've missed it ever since. After years of searching for the right car, we were finally lucky enough to score one for a pretty good deal. Let the fun begin!

[@BadgerGT500]

Can’t ever get tired of 2JZ shenanigans. Car looks great!

[@ThatRacingChannel]

Thanks! 2jz shenanigans 💯 the best

[@RickSolis1026]

My dream car. You knocked it out the park again Javier. Your builds are just the right style and power. I will say I do miss the Supra, but I can’t wait till this is finished

[@imjonrourke2772]

Agreed, I hadn’t seen him since he was with AdamLZ

[@masetcp]

Man Javier I was hoping you would get another S chassis again! I can’t wait to see what you’re gonna do with this one! Car looks fun and rips at 600whp! And good thing that this one is manual!

[@CraaaigV302]

Wow wat a transformation u guys did a great job the car looks so much better 👍🏼💪🏻🔥

I love the S14!!! Beautiful project!

[@nismofisch]

Thrilled to see you back in another s14. That steering wheel though.. can’t wait for more s14 content.

[@nathanwilliam1922]

Yes!!!! Finally got back to the jz gang. Love it

[@brandanmichael6982]

The wrap looks sick!!!

[@garagekspec4095]

Every since I saw when you guys got rid of the original TRC 240 . I knew you would miss it . The comparison of the JZ in a slightly lighter car is insane

[@ThatRacingChannel]

Been trying to get it back for years, finally found a good car for a replacement

[@blkros36561]

Cant wait to see the final build!! Its going to be a beast!

[@ThatRacingChannel]

😁🙌

[@richardledesma1675]

I can see this being a long term ownership car, dope street car with plenty of paper to have fun, makes all the right noises and needs some work but looks good👌🏼

[@chrish8270]

I’m so glad your building another one I miss your old car was a beast bruh 💯 inspired me to build my S14 can’t wait to see it when yu all finished it up

[@rustywrench500]

Damn look at the gyatt on that steering wheel.

[@rickmazurowski524]

The wheels are freaking awesome true 2pc aluminum wheels. One offs. I took them all fully apart, powder coated em, put em back together. That was a huge pain in ass. But they looked good and nobody had them in the USA.

[@ThatRacingChannel]

They are super sweet for sure, we still have them. Going to fix the leak and restore them. 🤘

I want this one to stay a stick shift, full street car but who knows, things usually snow ball here at TRC 😂

[@StLMikie]

I mean. It’s alright. 😁 Would make for a good giveaway vehicle!

[@joshmitchell4726]

It look good with the new rim but that all black set up was menacing

[@ThatRacingChannel]

Really loved the all black wheels, but unfortunately had to change them. we got too good of a deal on the welds to pass them up.

[@wpeezy10]

[@torqueandbeanssauce]

OK guys going to do a budget 240sx, got a great deal only $10k, going to do another $20k in mods but making sure I keep it budget. 6 months later it's a full blown race car with super nice everything.

[@booostedtc]

Car is sick wish I could get it somehow

[@CDFitz]

I think its always compulsory to giggle like a school girl after coming off boost in a 2JZ powered car :D

[@fernando2jz]

The welds look great! What model are they? And are they 17's?

[@bootneylee9802]

Only thing left is to smash the dashboard with an axe to simulate authenticity. 👌

[@ThatMaximaKid]

I laughed way too hard at this

[@rickmazurowski524]

The clickin and clacking should of been that KAAZ diff. I never played with the discs. Was always trying to lock up quick.

[@ThatRacingChannel]

yea we thought it might have been an aftermarket lsd, confirmed it was when we took it apart. It was damaged so swapped it out for a q45 lsd

[@MafiaboysWorld]

My ONLY gripe with this Javier is that you're keeping it stick shift. The OG 240 was the car that made me love my A340 and build it to 1000hp specs (mines a J1 so wish me luck. 😂😅😬) Plus, don't you want that A340 record back off Pedro? 😉😛

[@ThatRacingChannel]

Hahaha, i know i know. The plan is a fun stick shift street build, trying to not let this one snowball but lets see how it unfolds 🫣😂

[@MafiaboysWorld]

@@ThatRacingChannel Famous last words with the snowball, nek minit the 240 ends up with a Grannas rear end and Mazworx billet block to beat the GT-R & RSX. 🤣 I'm just messing with you brother. A nice 600hp-1000hp depending on boost, with the stick shift = fun for days in all conditions. 😎👍
