What better modification can you do to your Nissan than add a brand new 240SX Carbon Fiber Hood.  There are a number of main reasons why you would add this product to your Nissan over your stock hood.   You probably already know some of the popular concepts, like carbon fiber hoods are extremely light, or that the new stylish looks are sure to impress any automotive bystander.  These reasons play an integral part as to why a Nissan enthusiast would purchase this hood.  But they are not the only reason.

A big rationale often overlooked is for the carbon fiber hoods skill to keep the engine compartment cool.  If you visit the local drag strip, it is not unusual to come across racers using ice to keep their motors cool.  The fact is, keeping the engine cool, and keeping the air entering the engine cold, will help boost performance.  The Nissan carbon fiber hood helps keep the engine cool in two different ways.  First, carbon Fiber absorbs the heat coming from the engine and spreads it throughout the hood opposed to reflecting and storing it in the engine compartment as with a steel hood.  The heat spreads out and is eliminated instead of remaining bottled up.

The second reason is the air flow entering a functional vented Nissan carbon fiber hood increase cool air flow over and around the motor.  This cool air keeps the 240SX engine cool.  When you take these two reasons into thought, it is no wonder that any Nissan owner looking for performance would want to put on one of the Nissan carbon fiber hood to their vehicle.

Nissan owners are a distinctive and individual group that idolizes their cars for the things that they can do.  The S13 showed us three separate models, the coupe, the fastback (truly a hatchback) and the convertible.  In 1992, Nissan produced its American Only Market convertible, but took it completely out of the market after 1994. Only 8,320 convertibles were produced by Nissan for the SX.  This bodywork differentiates the coupe model from its Japanese-market counterpart, the Silvia, which featured fixed headlights. Both styles, and all markets, share the same chassis, and with few exceptions, most components and features are the same.  Though general layout remained the same though almost all parts where redesigned so that very few parts are interchangeable without modification from S14 to S13.  For the 240 SX, some owners import the JDM specific components of the Japanese-market chassis and install them onto their USDM chassis. Other swaps have been recorded such as a 240Z front end on a S13, a Nissan 280z front end on a s13, a S14 with S13 (pop-up headlights) front end (S14.3), and S13 with R32-chassis Skyline front end.  For all years of production the JDM body work was different (due to crash safety standards, thus creating the possibility for USDM and JDM parts swapping even for the same chassis types.  Purchase a Carbon Fiber Hood for your 240SX today.
