In today's video, I install an all-new audio system in the 240SX. As I worked through finishing the Interior Restoration Part 2 video, it was the perfect time to ditch old wires and worn out speakers for something that packed a greater punch. While the interior was taken out, I ran new wires front to rear, converted the old 4X6" speakers to 6.5" speakers, added a modern head unit and installed a powered subwoofer in the trunk. I wish everyone could hear it in person as the difference is incredible! DISCLAIMER: I am not a professional. This was my first time installing a system like this. I learned a lot and am super happy with the results! Enjoy the video!

ChrisFix hey Chris start striping the stang
Hey
Chris make a video of you working on something other than the doriftostang plz
ChrisFix hey chris make a video about how to install aftermarket steering wheel PLZ i have been asking for it.
ChrisFix Thanks man! It's been so great!! 🤙🏻
This is the first time I've ever seen a 240 being treated like a JCCS classic car level restoration! Awesome job Kyle! This is easily the most interesting and in depth 240 restoration I've ever seen on RUclips!
Thanks for showing everyone that 240s can actually have a nice interior!
I don't watch he's reviews that much but I like watching his restoration project's and his vlogs.
same
I’ve always wanted to see a video of someone installing a Kicker Under the seat Subwoofer, Nice video
Nice ChrisFix transition! Looking good kyle, nice work on the audio. That Sony unit is great on features.
Saabkyle you are my favorite youtuber. You do the best car reviews. I love your videos.
An actually informative video on what is needed to install bigger speakers on 240
Upload more videos of this project!
As you can see he also did the interior and the brakes, that means 2 videos that should be out soon.
GOOD JOB I am proud that you installed this with your own hands and i am excited to see more episode.
The red handle wire cutting tool is intended to crimp the solderless connectors as apposed to your off set channel lock plier. It has specific shaped notches for a proper crimp.
James Jones Yeah, I used it after the fact to make sure everything was snug 👍🏻👍🏻
I would love to take a ride in this car. Just to hear the interior.
Wow great video. Can't wait to see the rest of the series and you got some great tools to help with the work.
Going into my dentist office, sitting on the seat anxiously waiting for a root canal. I called the dental assistant to ask where Dr. Kyle is at only to be answer, he's doing a RUclips video about his project car...sign...more anesthesia please!!!
I love it! I know you say you're not a professional but watching you doing actual work, installations, repairs, etc. is really fun to watch. Great work, that audio system is going to sound awesome!
CrazyIvan1337 Thanks buddy!
Somebody give this guy a show already!
I was just looking at that exact same Sony head unit for my 05’ Sequoia. It seems to be the lowest priced with Apple Car Play and Android Auto plus I really like that it has a volume knob and not volume buttons!
Kyle, amazing job mate, you are one of the very very few people who does things the right way. Thank you for not putting tacky/ricey crap in the car and not mangling the car in some douche-igan way. I love every mod so far, keep up the great work! Love all your vids.
That’s a great looking 240 can’t wait to see the end result
I love audio system builds. Can't wait till I get to do one on my own ride
That's gonna be some *CLEAN* 240SX
It looks so good, can't wait for it to be finished!
Its amazing the dedication you put into your 24osx. I had one way back in the late 90s. I just bought a 89 240sx bone stock. its a project car. Im going to invest on leaving the car flawless.
I love your videos my friend! Great work, congrats on the 1Million subscribers!!
Voted best 240 on youtube. I would daily tf outta this car!
adding a subwoofer is one of the best upgrades for a car
Feels like I just watched a sound system install from Steve Meade. Great work!
Always excited to see you post a video, Kyle! Been a fan for a very long time. It's great to see you doing projects like this!
You really did go all out on this car. Pray for me and my S14a restoration
humble mechanic? u mean chris fix? looking forward for that video.
Humble Mechanic is someone else. He has a RUclips channel.
I like Chris fix better , tbh
This is so much better than Hunts and B is for build. And I like their stuff. You are just so much more organized, like AutoEdit.
David Patterson also did a rather good job with his 240 restomod
So so so happy you got this gem
Wow, amazing interior! Can't wait to see the end result !!!
Fun fact the stock car speaker wire was most likely pure copper that's why it was so small. The "upgrade" wire is aluminum coated in copper.
if you want it clean you should get r32/r33 seats
U made this my happy place man! Love your videos u cut no corners!
Dang Kyle, that’s an awesome project that’s coming together very well. Thanks for sharing man.
Yooo Kyle this thing is looking sweet. Can't wait for the motor swap!
James Russo Thanks pal! Hopefully it'll be ready in the next couple months or so!
This is going to be one of the best 240s in the world
CorvettesandGainz that's my goal!
Put a back up camera in the car and a 360 dash cam and stuff! Also I've been seeing a lot of 240s being restored on youtube glad the car is getting some love and respect and not just parted out....and messed up from ricers going through cars and parts or failed projects!
Excellent work. Looking forward to more progress on this S13 restoration.
Nice job Kyle! Just subscribed after watching all your 240sx videos!
Nice installation. I always installed the power amplifier under the driver's seat, that's because I use the rear seat for passengers (I have an '89 Geo Metro) and they get into the car using the right door. Nice job Kyle (a little complicated) but Nice job
@Saabkyle04 Fantastic video as always...
That sound system is very amazing! The installation may be complicated, but it's fun and worth the effort!
Omaris Bhumiriady Thank you!
Saabkyle04 Anytime, buddy!
I highly appreciate your gratitude.
That 240SX would be so cool once it's completed!
The OG carpet is so much better, can’t beat the tweed
This is a very exciting project your car is going to be awesome when it's done
Chris Fix should do a video on how to replace an audio system cuz I was sooooo confused on what he was talking about. Would be a great vid!
Alex Montoya Yeah, I do not do how-to videos. As I said, I don't pretend to be an expert, I'm still learning myself. All you can do is try your best!
My grandpas 350z has bose and it sounds really good with a lot of bass
Coming along quite nicely.
you loom like a professional
Wow Kyle this looks so good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You and chrisfix are awesome! Keep up the totally awesome work!
A true project car
I've tried that exact sony xav-ax100 at my local Walmart. Practically the only touch screen unit they had that I liked. More simple to use too :)
I was so mixed in what engine I should do for my s13 next year to bad I live on the opposite side of the country I would show you my s13 then show it when it is done. It's having a 596kw (800hp) rb26 in it and yes I'm keeping both tubros. It's going to be a blast.
justink075 dude that sounds incredible! It's going to be a monster when finished!
CAN'T BELIEVE YOU PULLED OUT OF ROB'S TUNER CHALLENGE
Gonna buy a 240sx soon (hopefully) and I'm going to treat it like this, save the last ones around guys.
Great work and attention to details, hope the result sounds great
So glad you didn't get enourmous subs. So many people have so much invested in bass it drowns out the actual music.
for anyone wanting to install an amp, a good tip for buying the amp wiring is to buy arc welding wire. The "audio" wiring is overpriced and not full copper in some cases, but the arc welding cable is full copper and a lot cheaper. Harbor freight had arc welding terminals you could use to terminate the ends.
At least he does not plan on competing in car audio shows with that system. I have a sony head unit and it sucks balls, i also made the mistake of going with kicker a while back too. But for the car build i like it a lot. I respect you a lot because unlike chris you don't hide your face.
You deserve so more views and subscribers!
Nice Job Kyle !!
Hell yea new AUDIO SYSTEM!!!!
I wish I could get my passion back to work on my own vehicles again.
Well done! Looking forward to seeing the next video!
Cleanest 240 in the world
Great video Kyle
YOUR VIDS ARE ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!!!!
Awesome video dude!!! 👍👌
if you ever decide the double din is too much and tired of the amp behind your seat there is a great sony unit with built in amp just like the kicker sub.
I run this setup in my mk3 supra. The 1 din deck powers my upgraded speakers and the kicker sub has its built in amp. just an idea for space saving.
Very great, but you could fix the amp in the rear back of the back seat, right above the subwoofer, it would look a lot better and will have no problems with heat.... greetings from Brasil
Looks good mate👍
I swear if he sells it a year from now haha
I can never get over the way he says "interior"
Great video, keep ones like these coming!
I'm ready for the new video
I do not know what to say. Great work!
So clean! Great job
Awesome tutorial Kyle!
Great job upgrading your car!
Everything looks so factory clean 🤗, just like it should be in my opinion. When you're done with this one lol can you do a 90's 300zx restoration🤔 (my personal favorite)anyway I'm glad you went with the hatchback.
Pig nose must stay, it brings so much originality to this car
It will buff Out bruh I've already sourced an original 180 SX Type X kit for it. I wanted to give it a more aggressive look, but keep it factory Nissan.
i love this kinda of video
I like everything you did minus the amp location. If it were me I would have located it right under the passenger seat so you wouldn't have to give up that back seat.
Karnage543 It wouldn't fit, tried several ways. If you put an amp under the seat, the seat will crush it when someone gets in, let along scratch it bad if you slide it back and forth. The back seat is useless so it was an adequate sacrifice in this case.
your videos always capture my attention. always watch till the end :)
Hey guys!! ChrisFix here!!
omg "PAPASLIM" on the Grand Marquis XD
New sub for sure quality is good clear audio great tips keep it up man
Damn, you did your research! Nice work.
Absolutely gorgeous I love your 240sx one of my dream cars I recently just got a g35 and I'm looking for ideas to change the appearance of it and keep the classic look your awesome keep doing videos can't wait to see wat else is in store for your 240sx
COOL nstalling a Complete Custom Audio System In The 240SX!
Could you give the link of where I can find the black speaker brackets? Thanks!
I'm trying to figure that out too
Would u consider putting racing seats in the future? Loving the build though & vids👏👌
Rene if I can't get the original seats restored like I would like them to be, I'll consider other options but I don't want anything too aggressive, thanks so much!
Saabkyle04
Please keep it stock, I love the look of a normal interior.
Great job man
Good job man looks great!!!
I bought the same head unit for that exact reason
Can you spare any information on how you kept your speakers from hitting the window inside the door and also cleared the speaker cover in the door panel? I'm currently trying to do this to my 240 using the plastic speaker adapters on ebay for 240's and having issues with clearances.
Yo this vid plus 240 interior resto. part one and two far better detail and info oriented than Adam LZ's 240 restoration for his wife's car.
Was there anything preventing you from putting the amp under neath the seat? Or was there a risk of overheating the amp?
