Garage Built 600hp 240sx, Man in a Suit Sets the New Standard. Insanity line.

Spike Chen came straight from work dressed at least 3000% better than any of us Hoonigans in the Burnyard. But with that suit come some real driving chops, too: Spike's 4.8l garage-built LS swapped 240sx is like an extension of his mind by now. Seat time rules - and Spike has plenty of it. He shows us just how close you can really get to the trailer overhang, and blows some minds in the process.

@@eliaskhawaja5753 of course but I think for some people everything under 600 isn't doing it. I always have to grin a little but when Donut Media says in videos that an SUV has 240 HP like it is something crazy because the 'normal' American is more like "EEEW your little Sports car has only 240 hp? How in the world can you drive that and why is it called a sports car???" And yes I know HP isn't everything but when Americans talk about production cars it's a gas car in 99,9% of the times so it doesn't really make much difference for me in between cars that are on Donut D-Lists and such. If someone tells me his 2.0 TDI is tuned to 240 that's another story because that's like 500 Newtonmeters of Twerks
