This is the first 240 video of yours I've watched and it's so entertaining to watch you be you and not just a professional reviewer. Definitely gonna continue watching this series.
Thank you so much for you feedback! I'm having a blast with this and it's really helping me become more comfortable on camera. Much respect to all of the vloggers out there, I don't know how they do it haha.
Saabkyle04 put an agency power exhaust or special or hks I'd prefer agency power because it changes the sound completely understand like other exhausts that only change the tone and a few other stuff
Saabkyle04 look up agency power exhaust there are comparisons of stock boxer exhaust to agency power (yes it's made for the boxer but trust mw.its amazing)
Great video! That trip where the exhaust just breaks on the highway is what makes cars so special. It's about the experiences we get from them not all the specs and numbers.
I'm pumped to see the whole build. Looking forward the video series you have planned for this. of course I'm going to watch all the videos. gonna be sick man. happy for you!! as always great job on the video.
Great video man! Love the enthusiasm! I used to have the same single cam KA in my S13. Great little engine, but you'll have a lot more fun having your new engine in there :) Looking forward to seeing more!
This same thing happened to my ex mark 2 Golf 1.6d on my way home from uni. It sounded amazing cruising the top speed of 70mph windows open, the fumes of diesel in my nostrils.. God I loved that car
Hell yeah Kyle!! I was hoping so bad that it would be an rb20 or 25... doing something different than the typical 2jz. I'm really excited to see where you take this. good luck!
Saabkyle04 depends on the power you make😉I'm sure you could fit some small Mickey Thompson drag radials on the back, if not you could get some bigger wheels that are still from a nissan
Saabkyle04 oh and as far as nothing new you could do to a 240, there still are options out there (Ferrari motors, lambo motors, royce, bentley, v10's, a duramax diesel v8 swap etc..)
It looks really good from about 20 feet away and on camera. There's dents and dings all over it, the bumpers have faded, there's some paint missing from the drip rails, etc. It'll need a lot of bodywork done to it. I've already done a video just cleaning it up, but that's about all you can do at this point.
Aloha from Hawai'i Kyle, just discovered your channel and subscribed. Thank you for not being yet another generic "how to put a Chevy LS in a 240SX " video. Kudos to your awesome engine choice and planned upgrades, can't wait to see the rebuild commence.
Thank you Kyle for taking us through this project and showing so much that is involved in this project. They had a concept version of the 1971 a few years ago at the car shows. It almost came back. I see your goal for your project. In a lot of ways the older cars and better than newer cars. You have to invest in the older ones. Once you do.. boy oh boy..
You sir is a legend. Classic cars should stay to their origins and an RB is always the way to go, forget 2J and 1J, THIS IS THE WAY :)) Thanks for this
Kyle, I miss your old videos so much! Can you do a video about some classic American car in the near future? I know that modern cars are great, but it would be really nice to see some review of good old Cadillac.
Hey Nicholas! I'd love to, but where I'm located, those opportunities are few and far between. I've been looking into it, but there aren't many places that will let you drive classics for a "road test" type review. I hope that changes in the future, but rest assured that it is in the back of my mind. Thank you!!
"Except for this piece" 😹😹 Btw, damn, you look so in love and so enthusiastic about it, it's just awesome. Hope everything comes out as planned 👌 greetings from Puerto Rico
Kyle love the upgrades your doing to the 240sx! I do miss the skyline R34 GTR, got me into foreign sports cars. Can't wait for the finish product! Keep up the great work, you are the man!
I like the fact that u will only put NISSAN parts in a Nissan, because ive seen some lexus v8 nissan, ls nissans, 2jz n shit, i mean its ok with Japanese motors buuuut, I dont like it. A Toyota Powered Nissan, Id like a Nissan Poweres Nissan, because i like my Nissan To be fast, not my Toyota :I u know?
basically what I read from these comments "I don't want the superior engine, I don't care if you can make double the power for less, I don't care that it's way lighter than our precious 4 banger S10 sized motor, I don't care it's easier to work on, I don't care that there's no benefit to our 90's shit box motors!"
Makes me miss the very first car given to me just before I got my license. 1989 Nissan 240SX hatchback in the same color as yours Kyle. My brother had it and a red 1995 240SX coupe. He gave me the 89 because it was an automatic and I needed a car. First, and last time I drove it the motor was basically "walking" for lack of better term, so he decided he would fix it. He drove it to town and discovered an overheating issue. After that I got my other brothers 99 S-10. The 240 had sat about 6 months prior to the day I got it and sat in my yard for nearly 3 years after. I miss that car so much I so want one again
A soon as he mentioned they specialized in Skylines it was an immediate lightbulb moment where I said to myself, "Either RB25 or 26 for sure" and sure enough! Awesome choice and it's going to sound and perform really well. Congrats and can't wait to see future of this build
I live near Charlotte and actually drove down to Sanford to check out Rivsu too. Steve and Emily were awesome!!! Will definitely go through them if I ever get an R32 GTR!
Your enthusiasm really comes out in your vids.Great work!Keep it up.Also,talking bout off the wall..Haha...I bought a Nissan A31 Cefiro myself.RB20 single cam non turbo though.That will be a "better performance through better handling" route... :-)
definitely liking the direction of this build! It is going to be one epic car in the end knowing your knowledge about cars! Have you ever driven a skyline R32? Would you consider swapping for one of those? Don't get me wrong, I love the 240sx! It is definitely one of my favorites! It''s a brilliant base for an awesome fun ride! Great engine choice btw!
Kyle, personally I would go for a sleeper look. There are barely any stock exterior 240SX left and it would be epic to have this engine in a stock exterior 240!!!
Just wondering why, if you plan to build the block, upgrade manifolds and turbo, likely need a standalone ECU and all that, why not stick with the KA? You could build a KA-T for less and have the original engine to the car. I have built an RB20 and an SR20 240 before. RB20 was super smooth and sounded great but it was heavy. The same logic could apply to why not build an LS V8 if it was only about the $$$ and HP return. Thanks for building a 240sx!
r33rb25det - thats an amazingly strong engine. So much potential for what one can extract from it. Cant wait to see the rest of what you do wtih the car
This is the first 240 video of yours I've watched and it's so entertaining to watch you be you and not just a professional reviewer. Definitely gonna continue watching this series.
Thank you so much for you feedback! I'm having a blast with this and it's really helping me become more comfortable on camera. Much respect to all of the vloggers out there, I don't know how they do it haha.
That's excellent advice, I think about it way too much haha.
Saabkyle04 put an agency power exhaust or special or hks I'd prefer agency power because it changes the sound completely understand like other exhausts that only change the tone and a few other stuff
Saabkyle04 look up agency power exhaust there are comparisons of stock boxer exhaust to agency power (yes it's made for the boxer but trust mw.its amazing)
or a nismk exhaust from r35 or 370
"Soapy Wooder" from "ChrisFix" 6:19
Rigoberto Chavez "TM"
Rigoberto Chavez they actually made a video together
Ahahaha
Kyle we all know you're just gonna drop the v10 from your viper in it don't lie to us
Jaden Evans nah will be the bugatti w16
There's a viper v10 240z. no ones Coyote swapd a 240sx
Some Dude theres a coyote swapped 240 on craigslist.
www.driftchick.com/crew-chiefs-garage/car-updates/

Sounds awesome Kyle! Can't wait to see how it turns out.
Great choice Kyle. Gonna be fun to watch
Thanks Blake!
Saabkyle04 this car is going to be awesome !!!
Saabkyle04 ....2017 3500 Silverado review please .....
So excited for you, man! Can't wait to see more things that you do for your project. I'm living through you, with this video.
I'll save the time to say the motor for you guys... it's a Prius motor swap
Danggg, you got me! XD
Saabkyle04 I love yore channel I watched it ever sense 2014 and subbed in 2016 (: I like yore channel you are the best
v8 engine would be great
nah is an r34 engine.
Noah Sherman LS1 with a pair of electronic 4 inch cut outs.
Great video! That trip where the exhaust just breaks on the highway is what makes cars so special. It's about the experiences we get from them not all the specs and numbers.
ThatDudeInBlue's 2JZGTE big turbo vs your 240 when its finished! DO IT!
I recently watched his dyno video on blueJZ and I think we have the same turbocharger haha.
MetalheadEchidna David would probably review it as well
Very nice, Kyle! Looking forward to your future videos of this car!
thank god its an RB
Stephen Cain Why the RB?
Stephen Cain no motor has the same character as any other
i guess idk what your trying to say by that
Just thank god it's not an SR
What u talking about? He's going LS!
I'm pumped to see the whole build. Looking forward the video series you have planned for this. of course I'm going to watch all the videos. gonna be sick man. happy for you!! as always great job on the video.
RB25 is an interesting choice. I can't wait to see how the 240SX will come out looking like.
Trades46 WHY'D YOU SPOIL IT😩
Future note: never read comments before watching a video without being prepared to be spoiled XD
Trades46 one more litre
Trades46 for
Amazing engine, the sound, the power... Had it in my r33 and miss so much in v35 now. Enjoy it!
Finally someone doing something other than a 2j :D Congrats!
Thanks buddy!
AMBush Drift -Aren't you getting a LS?-
that 180 is beautiful. those wheels make it look so good
That red Rx-7 got me going. (I'm a huge Mazda and rotary fan)
It was in pretty good shape too, wouldn't mind taking it for a test drive XD
Same!!! I love import but rotary has a particularly special place in my heart 💛 brapbrapbrapbrap
Great video man! Love the enthusiasm! I used to have the same single cam KA in my S13. Great little engine, but you'll have a lot more fun having your new engine in there :)
Looking forward to seeing more!
At least it sound good with muffler fail.
Very true haha, the drone on the highway is killer though XD
Saabkyle04 but hey it sound so good now (: LOL
Saabkyle04 شكرا لك 👍👍
Saabkyle04 who cares, it sounds awesome
This same thing happened to my ex mark 2 Golf 1.6d on my way home from uni. It sounded amazing cruising the top speed of 70mph windows open, the fumes of diesel in my nostrils.. God I loved that car
just came across this video I'd just like to say good luck to you man I'll be watching your journey good luck and have a great day
Thank you so much, same to you!
Hell yeah Kyle!! I was hoping so bad that it would be an rb20 or 25... doing something different than the typical 2jz. I'm really excited to see where you take this. good luck!
You should make this the ultimate sleeper, keep the stock Wheels as well. Then challenge people at stop lights, it whould make a Great video/videos
Yeah that would! Those 15X6" wheels and 205 tires wouldn't stand a chance though haha.
Saabkyle04 depends on the power you make😉I'm sure you could fit some small Mickey Thompson drag radials on the back, if not you could get some bigger wheels that are still from a nissan
Saabkyle04 oh and as far as nothing new you could do to a 240, there still are options out there (Ferrari motors, lambo motors, royce, bentley, v10's, a duramax diesel v8 swap etc..)
KARL 240's can never be sleepers though.
rb25 with the type x kit, 240 DONE RIGHT 👊
Is a repaint really necessary? Because it actually looks okay and it would be even better with polishing and paint correction.
It looks really good from about 20 feet away and on camera. There's dents and dings all over it, the bumpers have faded, there's some paint missing from the drip rails, etc. It'll need a lot of bodywork done to it. I've already done a video just cleaning it up, but that's about all you can do at this point.

Thanks a lot my friend, I appreciate that!
Honestly was so happy to see an rb, so sick of all these LSx 240s, getting really boring.
It'll be really cool when it's done, thank you!
so glad to see you picked a good engine. congrats I'm stoked for you kyle
It's a RB25DET, should have been a 1J haha still love you though p.s do a drift 🙊✌️
Hahahaha, the Monkey 1J hype! Love it!
MONKY LONDON 1j wooo wooo. Rb25 ni cari masalah
MONKY LONDON what's wrong with the rb? Why 1j over it?
Reliable bruh
Faris Ali rb's are more fragile...
Thank you Kyle for taking us through this project and showing so much that is involved in this project. They had a concept version of the 1971 a few years ago at the car shows. It almost came back.

You sir is a legend. Classic cars should stay to their origins and an RB is always the way to go, forget 2J and 1J, THIS IS THE WAY :)) Thanks for this
Thank you for watching! :)
Congrats kyle! Excited to see what the future holds for your 240
* Pulls off cover * I actually didn't pick anything I want to keep it stock
YAAAAAAASSSSSS!!!!!! Finally someone listened and is keeping it OG! Not revealing the engine but it's perfect!
Kyle, I miss your old videos so much! Can you do a video about some classic American car in the near future? I know that modern cars are great, but it would be really nice to see some review of good old Cadillac.

Saabkyle04 Thank you so much! And good luck finding some nice car for the video!
Thank you :)
Saabkyle04 ahahahhahahha that exughst (: ahhaahhahaahahahaahahahahaahaahahah
Nicholas and
I remember watching your videos before I even had a car, can't wait to see the build!
Saabkyle04 Nice videos! Keep up the awesome work!! And 😂 What camera do you use?
Thanks buddy! I primarily shoot with a Canon Vixia HF G30 at 1080p and 60fps :)
Saabkyle04 (: I like that 240SX it rare to find stock
Saabkyle04 I like skyline and SUPRA AND basically all cars but skyline and SUPRA are the ones that are my fave
"Except for this piece" 😹😹
Btw, damn, you look so in love and so enthusiastic about it, it's just awesome. Hope everything comes out as planned 👌 greetings from Puerto Rico
Thank you so much for watching! :)
You wanna know something nobody has done to a 240. Keep it stock
It's not worth keeping stock. The car isn't pristine enough, it would take a lot of work for not a lot of reward in the end.
Da Fox yeah, milan mastracci has a very pristine one so he's gonna buy another to work on
because its trash in stock form
Kyle love the upgrades your doing to the 240sx! I do miss the skyline R34 GTR, got me into foreign sports cars. Can't wait for the finish product! Keep up the great work, you are the man!
In a world full of JZ's and LS' be an RB!
That RIVSU place looks fantastic . Soooo many amazing cars in their workshop.
nice demon shirt!
Great choice, Kyle. Good luck with the swap and drive safe brother!
if i was an arab sheik i would go shopping in that garage... i think i would buy all of them.
+God I would buy the garage.
Wow ! Love the engine Kyle, good luck with the rest of the project. P.S: this is my favorite series, keep the good vids coming !!
I like the fact that u will only put NISSAN parts in a Nissan, because ive seen some lexus v8 nissan, ls nissans, 2jz n shit, i mean its ok with Japanese motors buuuut, I dont like it. A Toyota Powered Nissan, Id like a Nissan Poweres Nissan, because i like my Nissan To be fast, not my Toyota :I u know?
I completely agree with you
Alexander F Agreed.
Alexander F true that 👍🏻
the reason people put LS's and 2JZ's is because its cheaper then a RB and more reliable then the SR20.
Alexander F you sound so fucking stupid
That's awesome. Can't wait to see where this goes!
NOT AN LS! LS is lighter and makes way way way more power with bolt ons
I wanted to keep a Nissan engine in a Nissan. If I wanted an LS, I would have just gotten a Camaro haha.
TanTanBednarski You're disgusting shut up about your stupid ls
basically what I read from these comments "I don't want the superior engine, I don't care if you can make double the power for less, I don't care that it's way lighter than our precious 4 banger S10 sized motor, I don't care it's easier to work on, I don't care that there's no benefit to our 90's shit box motors!"
TanTanBednarski what I've read is that it's not your car...
Lol "superior", a coyote or voodoo engine is far more superior to that pos ls engine lmao!
Makes me miss the very first car given to me just before I got my license. 1989 Nissan 240SX hatchback in the same color as yours Kyle. My brother had it and a red 1995 240SX coupe.

THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING A RB25 BECAUSE EVERYONE GOES 2J. THANK YOU!!!
Thank you for watching! The RB is going to be insane!
it's sounds EPIC your videos are always the best !
Cancel the build and just buy that Rx-7.
Hahahaha XD
if you building RX-7 never swap it never swap it
Great project direction - can't wait to see the final project....
Kyle congrats with your build, everything sounds great.
Amazing choice Kyle this is going to be so fun to watch
Don't even need a new engine with the sound you got coming from your car now! XD super excited to see the engine all finished up though!
A soon as he mentioned they specialized in Skylines it was an immediate lightbulb moment where I said to myself, "Either RB25 or 26 for sure" and sure enough! Awesome choice and it's going to sound and perform really well. Congrats and can't wait to see future of this build
Thanks a lot Jacob!!
Thanks for your great vids Kyle! Enjoy this build!
I like the way you explain your build down to every detail.
Good choice Saabkyle04. I'm looking forward to future videos of the 240. Can't wait :-)
Im so glad you are keeping the 240 a NIssan. Your going to love the RB25 BTW
Your videos always make me feel happy.
This is gonna be awesome! I can't wait to see once it's done!
Great choice of motor the RB2 engine is such a great engine for modifications and it will suite your car perfectly
I live near Charlotte and actually drove down to Sanford to check out Rivsu too. Steve and Emily were awesome!!! Will definitely go through them if I ever get an R32 GTR!
Good choice Kylie!!!! your gonna love it!
im excited to watch this car's restoration. You already know its going to come out mint since Kyle isnt some 16 yr old drift noob.
My relatively stock rb25 in my s14 rips so cant imagine what itll be like. Ur motor build is my dream.
Your enthusiasm really comes out in your vids.Great work!Keep it up.Also,talking bout off the wall..Haha...I bought a Nissan A31 Cefiro myself.RB20 single cam non turbo though.That will be a "better performance through better handling" route... :-)
I cannot wait to see how it will sound once you are done.
Love your videos man! Keep up the awesome content!
This is going to be an awesome car, can't wait to see how it turns out.
amazing choice this engine choice is leading me to sub to your channel cant wait!
Wow Kyle, this car is going to turn out great! You should do a dyno test when it's all done. Keep up the good work!
Cant wait to see the finished product!
hey bro great vid really inspiring Im currently restoring my e39 535i and understand highs and lows just gotta keep the big picture
Really enjoy the videos man keep it up.
They sound like that they are great at fixing cars. That Nissan GTR is such a nice car. I love that silver exterior too.
definitely liking the direction of this build! It is going to be one epic car in the end knowing your knowledge about cars! Have you ever driven a skyline R32? Would you consider swapping for one of those? Don't get me wrong, I love the 240sx! It is definitely one of my favorites! It''s a brilliant base for an awesome fun ride! Great engine choice btw!
Great choice on engine! I really am looking forward to this ☺
Looks clean and its a great motor. Good choice!
Looking forward to see more of the 240sx!
Now that's a good choice! imagine how good the Nissan will sound!
Awesome! Love it! Please do a Review video with those 2 classic Skylines.
This is awesome! I was expecting a 1jz but this blows it out of the water :)
Thats litterally the motor I want to put in a 240... So jealous. Cant wait for this series.
His laugh... Perfect!
ok man you got me, i'm gonna follow your project now
goodluck with you build mate
I'm looking forward to see rb25 in action lol
Kyle, personally I would go for a sleeper look. There are barely any stock exterior 240SX left and it would be epic to have this engine in a stock exterior 240!!!
Great choice! Always wanted to RB swap an S13.
Target number 400 or more... just for fun and not to damage the motor I love the built tho. . maybe nismo brakes and rims next
Should be an awesome project Kyle. I won't lie at first I was expecting an LS motor, but I'm glad you stuck with a Nissan engine.
Thanks bud, I think a lot of people were haha.
Sounds nice and loud!
Just wondering why, if you plan to build the block, upgrade manifolds and turbo, likely need a standalone ECU and all that, why not stick with the KA? You could build a KA-T for less and have the original engine to the car. I have built an RB20 and an SR20 240 before. RB20 was super smooth and sounded great but it was heavy. The same logic could apply to why not build an LS V8 if it was only about the $$$ and HP return. Thanks for building a 240sx!
Very impressive man.
Nice project keep it clean
r33rb25det - thats an amazingly strong engine. So much potential for what one can extract from it. Cant wait to see the rest of what you do wtih the car
paint the turbos red aswell as the valve cover, if you want to go further get some red turbo piping.
