Yo for a 20 yo owner, thats a mature and tasteful build, props to him

The cleanest 240sx I have ever seen with a ka24 the cleanest engine bay no oil leaks or dirty ass engine

This shows the benefits of teaching your son about hard work so he appreciates the time and effort that goes into building a car

that is literally the cleanest interior i have ever seen in an s14. Knowing how hard it is to keep a clean interior like that....props

Just listening to this dude, you can tell he knows what he's talking about. Serious props.

That's one clean well built 240, hats off to ya young man

Damn what a pretty 240sx--mad props to this man and his father. Inspirational!

wait zach is 35 lol

Hands down one of my favorite builds on TST. Tastefully modified, and an extremely clean engine bay! I love the sleeper engine bay look 100%. Props to you, dude!

Dude that thing is sweet. Perfectly modified to me. I like a tasteful and never overdone car that can be driven hard.

it’s so sad when I see people mess these cars up while drifting. GUYS they aren’t made anymore. please take notice of this clean 240 and follow in these steps

I wonder what dad drives

I have a lot of respect for this kid -- taking better care and consideration for his car and modifications than many people twice his age. The interior and underhood condition highlight just how well he has done. Kudos to Dad for being a good mentor and inspiring a healthy method to the habit of cars and modification.

I like the increased footage of inside the car & walkaround outside. Nice to actually see the cars vs just the drive.

His dad has the right idea. Doing it right nice motor

Zack every one take you put out gets better and better. I personally can tell your confidence is rising and it shows. Keep at it and you'll do quite well. As for all these little boys and girls that have nothing nice to say get over yourselves. Props to the whole smoking tire crew you guys all do a great job at making automotive journalism interesting and fun.

The cleanest 240 with a KA that I've ever seen. Awesome car man!

Dam that is one of the nicest, cleanest custom cars I have seen in a long time. Taste, power, a lot of sensibleness (if that is a word) seems to have gone into his build. Absolutely awesome car.

A bit slammed for my taste, but that is a beautiful example of the 240SX. Love the cleanliness and simplicity of the engine compartment. Yay TST for exhibiting another fun build!

The flex fuel badge is a nice touch, haha. What a clean s14 though. It has a great stance to it.

The best part of this thing is that it’s not obnoxiously loud

Wow, rare to see clean 240's. I made a video regarding a clean 240x where the owner will be boosting the KA as well. Awesome!

Rich Brian!

Whoa, is this host new? I like this guy. Let's keep him.

Thanks everyone for watching! That coil overs were brand new during this drive so I guess they were set a little to soft. Lol They've since been set firmer to fix the rubbing issue. - @_tomas.a_

I'm digging the videos with Zack. Seems pretty knowledgeable and genuine.

Also, I'm sorry, but I didnt hear which engine that turbo came from but being from a turbo Nissan, it's most likely a T28 based turbo, it makes the KA so much more responsive and powerful down low and that is where you spend most of your time on the street. I built my forged turbo LSVTEC that's in my EK Honda Civic coupe with a large Turbonetics turbo that's made for top end and my turbo doesn't really spool until right after VTEC crossover because of the increased lift and exhaust pulse, so it doesn't have much low end torque, but once the turbo hits full boost it pulls so hard to redline that it scares me sometimes. I made 508 whp so far on fairly low boost, but the engine is built to make around 600 whp.

I love that 240! VERY well executed!

word of advice to the owner, switch to the Z32 break booster. I owned a z32 for 7 years and it had the greatest feeling breaks I've ever felt in a car. Also the ABS in that car was amazing, saved my ass from many retarted drivers.

dude this is a really clean s14. if only all the kids could build out these cars like this.

Man this kid had the best upbringing as a car enthusiast. Almost seems like a fairy tale.

Damn. Interior and engine real clean, like mine...that wrap makes me want to finally finish the paint and body on mine. Real nice.

I'd personally take a built KA over a built SR any day. More displacement and parts are way easier to find. I'd personally tune on a proper ems with closed loop wideband though. Nice build. I remember my 240 and I miss the damn thing...

This video really makes me want to boost my KA, cant wait for that day.

Not normally a fan of s14’s but this guy has done his right. And owning the car since he was 13 is a pretty damn good story

Great One Take. I love this car. I have always admired the 240SX. I remember riding in a friend's stock 240 in the very early 90's in college. Bone stock, yet fun. Very nice, responsible young man. Beautiful car. I'm really enjoying the first two Zach videos I have watched tonight. Nothing against Matt whatsoever. Keep doing what you're doing guys.

I don't know a whole lot about 240s because it's probably one of the only vehicles I have never owned (along with any VWs), but that turbo kit really does look fairly OEM besides the intercooler piping. It's good to hear that you built the engine to remedy the weak points that you encountered with your first turbo kit (which is something that we have all lived and learned from), and it's also good to hear that you went with a Nissan supplied turbo rather than an aftermarket larger turbo, and that adds to the response and originality of the chassis and engine. You have a well-built beautiful build and anyone that says otherwise is an asshat hater and doesn't know their ass from a hole in the ground. Looks great brother! I love it.

Very good build. That bay set up looks sick very stock looking. I really like that

Bro when he pressed that button and you heard that shit crank louder it was like wooooo 😂🤘🏽💯

Zack you need to buy one man. I could tell you loved the way that car felt. Don’t let a swapped 240sx scare you away. If the owner has done a good job on the swap without any big turbos or crazy boost settings then it should be pretty reliable. Ive daily driven my sr20det 240 for 5yrs with just General maintenance and stock psi levels. Better yet buy a RHD one from in importer. Just don’t get the ca18det motor 😝

Look! A 240sx with a built KA that actually sounds and looks healthy! What a unicorn.

NOW YOU'VE GOT MY ATTENTION

Looks CLEAN AF, absolutely love the look, the stance, and it also goes like stink

So clean. Makes me miss my 97 I sold 9 years ago.

My father won't let me even buy a cheap Miata... Super jealous of this build! Everything's done just right.

thanks Zack Farah

I really like the car and for the owner's age it is/was well done, I'd just have it raised up ever so much so it doesn't rub under serious compression.

Always liked these. Clean car and engine bay. Would never consider one over a C4 but great review. Good choice on the e46 m3. No comparison there.

That kids hand hitting the arm rest on the door 25 times pisses me off. Haha great video guys! Keep it up.

No one gives zack credit for how funny he is lmao he is never off

Woah is that Rich Brian?

He described the kouki perfectly, the feel the hood slope everything. Just sold mine unfortunately but I'll get another in a few years like I always do 😉✌

Dude should be proud. Beautiful car that he can work on and daily. I'm jealous!

You can cook an egg in his engine bay. Great job dad.

At 7.09 the mathematics makes alot of sense so here's my def: 13 = playing around 16= mistakes 22= figure out all of the problems 28= 20 also maturity hits

I want to be his dad when my son grows up. Awesome vid!

00:00 "Gimmie just a quick secon... Skip 1:17

At 5:20 he says lets take off, and there is only one person in the car. Then it goes back to the in cabin view and both men are there.

Good to see u again Matt ! 👍✌✌

Is that Calvin? Tj hunts bald friend

that is such a sweet build i love s chassis'

YES S14! Get One Zack! Keep up the fantastic work guys!

that engine bay is CLEAN

This guys videos are actually more informative than Matts.

Beautiful S14 sounded really sweet. But the guy driving didn’t give it enough credit. I mean for someone who reviews cars should be privileged not envious. Awesome car you should make a poster of it

Very nice build 👍🏽 engine bay looks sick. I don’t see an inner cooler, any issues with overheating?

"Built to last ..... DURAlast"

yo rich chigga out here racing silvias

nice car always been a s14 fan since i was younger

True budget build! good job

I had a 95 s14 man it was the most fun car I’ve owned even I never got to properly build mine I’ve been searching for another but sadly people overprice them

Clean!

Only 3 minutes and love it yo this car is so beautiful. Usually these cars look so shitty as a drift car. Props to that kid for his build!!

Love it Zach. I also have wanted a 240 for a long time, but ended up going with a M3 for the same reasons. Now I have a S2000 as a second car that I would not want to trade for a 240, but have no room for another car. I still want one but agree the 240 would need to be a 3rd car...

I love KAs.. lol I might have missed it.. But what manifold is that?? Man the way he did it makes it look like it came turbo from the factory. Super clean

Seems like a good kid raised by a good dad

I like how you critique, keep it up

S14 gang 🙌🏽🤙🏽

I love the s14/15 I wish Nissan would bring them back

Who is this kid? I was looking forward to watching this

Very clean s14

Super clean! Awesome car!

The KA engine is not Nissans finest.... the SR20 (esp the vvtdet) is great! albeit rarer in the US. credit to the builder owner.... very nice car thank you for sharing. I don't think its fair to compare the S14 to an E6 M3 (arguably the best six cylinder M car) as they are so different. I would expect the E46 M3 has a much better chassis (just personal opinion) . The One takes are great BtW thank you for providing the content 👌

Need to see more overfenders molded in, looks cleaner

Wish it had smaller wheels and tires that were wide enough to fit them, but otherwise it looks really nice.

Passenger side mic could use some work. I don't know if it was positioning or just not as good a mic as you use for yourself, Zach. But otherwise.. man I wouldn't mind having one of those.

Bet His dad drives a DadSun

I like this build, it's alot like I would do it.

35?? Dude!

Content starts at 1:13

I would love it if I got to buy my car that soon.

dont thin matt can fit in there

I’m not into the s14’s but damn his makes me want to buy one

Clean good work!

Damn I didn't know Rich Chigga had a 240!

stock internal KA's will last boosted if you 1: dont go over 6400k or 300hp 2: have a PERFECT tune

*Note to future One Take owners* Don’t fidget and slap the door panels when you’re talking. Thanks.

“Chipped” 😂.... the tune is the most important thing of any build. Get a real damn dyno tune already.

He sound very disappointed that his dad made him love cars. He could had been a doctor. Love how the car looks though.

How the fuck do you get this to pass emission inspection at CARB station? Most impressive thing is that this has California plates despite all the engine mods.
