Building a 550hp 1JZ Nissan 240SX - in 10 Minutes!

When Vin first picked up this dusty old Nissan 240sx, it had seen better days. Much... much better days. But he had some grand plans, including 1JZ swap under the hood (from our pals at JDM of California), some fresh paint, and some body bits. And after a summer’s worth of toiling and building, Vin’s s14 came out wider, 5x faster, and WAY better looking. Putting down around 550hp to the crank, and sitting pretty on BBS LM wheels (sorry, Hert), this might be one of our favorite Hoonigan cars to date. Now check out the entire build series in just 10 minutes - from forgotten storage vehicle to 550hp fun machine.
