Tonight, we are coming at you from the Compton Speedway in historic Mexico. We have a pair of LS (Chevy) swapped imports ready to tear up the asphalt for a cash pot of $5,200. Both these cars hail from the Datsun lineage. The Z-Car was created a Datsun and the 240Sx was manufactured by Nissan (the modern name for Datsun). Let’s see what happens when these two serious street machines throw down in this notorious street racing venue. Sleek and lean, the Z-Car has long been a target of street racers looking to dump a big domestic engine in an Read More

Greetings speed enthusiasts and other gearheads. Allow me to introduce Andre Cargrill and his Ugly Duckling. Andrew has been 15-years building the version of the Ugly Duckling that hits the streets (of Mexico) today. Last time we saw Andrew’s car, a 1995 Nissan S14 240sx, it was equipped with a turbocharged Nissan KA four-cylinder engine. The four-banger was more than adequate – and Andrew builds a really nice ride – but he wanted a little more. Now, the duck is powered by an Infiniti (Nissan) VQ35HR V6 motor with a massive turbo. Numerous modifications were necessary for the chassis of Read More

Let’s drop in at Street Car Takeover and have a look at a beast of a Gen IV Camaro. Campaigned by the guys at Tick Performance, this thing is being billed as the fastest LT1/T56 combination on the planet. Powered by what the driver calls the “Junk LT” this Gen II LT1 engine is built with an economy crankshaft, connecting rods and pistons. Cramming air down the snout of this unlikely mill is a Precision (8891) 88-millimeter turbo. The transmission is a manual T56 built by Tick Performance. It’s loaded with their clutch components and hardware. Output at the rear Read More

Featured in this video are Casey Rance and his Burnt Orange Nissan 240sx. Those in the street racing and No-Prep world are very familiar with Casey, but this is his first attempt at taking on the clock. Casey is quite a competitor and we can count on him to give it his all – regardless of the venue. Under the hood, this Nissan is a Chevrolet LS (Texas Speed built) with four-bolt mains. It is force-fed copious amounts of air via a massive, front-mounted turbocharger. After winning his class tonight, Casey intends to drive this 240 all the way back Read More

Keeping it real and keeping it Nissan is what Andre Cargill (#DRETUNED) is all about. This video chronicles the building of the Ugly Duckling 240sx and gives you a chance to witness car owner (and tuning guru) Andre as he walks you through the eleven-year ordeal that has yielded this four-cylinder street monster. All the while he is blasting down the interstate (somewhere in Mexico) between exits. There is also some great dyno and dragstrip footage. In keeping this 240 all Nissan, Andre built a 2.4-liter (KA24 DE-T) four-cylinder himself. The intake and exhaust manifolds are custom-crafted and beautifully Read More

This video features exactly the type of vehicle that gets my blood pumping. I love taking a small and lightweight, rear-wheel drive car and putting in a big, V8 engine with at least one power adder. If you do it right – and this guy has apparently done it just right – you can win a lot of races (cash) on the street and strip. For this type of hybrid build, the Nissan 240 has long been a favorite of amateur and street racers. There are four major reasons for this: The sharp looking little import bodies are readily available Read More

This one-of-a-kind Nissan 240SX has been dubbed the Red Rocket and is being touted as the fastest 240SX in the world. The real question that I want to ask is: Just how much of a Nissan is this Red Rocket? Don’t get it twisted – a low 7-second quarter-mile pass at 187 mph is pretty impressive under any circumstances – but does this little rear-wheel drive coupe have a big American V8 pining away under the bonnet or has it remained stock to accomplish this awe inspiring feat? The answer is…neither. Instead of taking the easy way to a low Read More

Mention the words “Viper”, “GT-R”, and “street racing” to me and you will have my undivided attention. This video has all of those things and a whole lot more. Let’s get this (roll racing) party started with a contest between a 1,400whp Dodge Viper and an 8-second Nissan GT-R. The Gen V Viper and the Nisan GT-R are two of the baddest production vehicles to ever roll off an assembly line. Obviously the Viper in the video has undergone some extensive modifications; including a turbo setup. The Snake handles Godzilla easily and moves on to the next victim. You may Read More

The featured car in this video has the uncommon ability to tear up the drag strip and stick to the curves like a mouse to a glue-trap. The owner campaigns this beauty on the local 1/4-mile one weekend and runs the heck out of the regional road course the next. This thing is scary fast with neck-snapping torque. This rear-wheel drive coupe is equipped with a 2JZ-GTE Toyota engine, a transmission from an Infiniti G35, and a rear differential from an Infiniti Q45. It has been treated to an extensive porting and polishing job (intake manifold, exhaust headers, and cylinder Read More

Here we have a pair of rear-wheel drive Nissan 240SX coupes that are taking a drastically different approach to the finish line. You must check out this head-to-head dig racing action as these two imports take on Mustangs and Camaros in a quest to enter the finals against one another – with one of them taking home the gold. The camo Nissan chose to go with a factory mill (of sorts). He is running a JDM Nissan SR20DET (2.0-liter) four-cylinder engine with a 68/70 turbocharger and a 5-speed manual Dog Box transmission. It has posted a best 1/4-mile ET of 8.74-seconds. The Read More
