Well since I have gotten all the money from my insurence from the wreck. Its time to figure out what to do about a car. I mean I really like the celica and all, but I think that I want a 240sx. The reasons why I want one are: 1. RWD, 2. more power than a gt, 3. more boost friendly IE SR20DET swap, different styling on it, 4. these pics are also what made me think about it more.
those are what made me think more about it. I still have the kit and other stuff, so that wouldn't take me as long to get it back to where it was. If I get another 6th gen its more for sentamental reasons more than anything else. But the 240 is looking really sweet though, but I would have to put more money into the swap and other stuff to make it go fast. let me know what you think and tell me why you think it. Bryan |

Hey man. Are 240's imported to US or sold from dealerships? The reason I ask is that they are everywhere over here, and although there are the odd beautiful specimens around, they are really a teenage ricer car. I won't complain about the engine - the SR20 is a serious engine - like all nissans. But I've driven one, and as someone else said they feel loose, almost like a big box of plastic wrapped around a chassis. I don't want to put you off, but I fully recommend going and testdriving one well before you make the decision.
I vote for a 300 - they are so much nicer and look unreal with a decent bodykit. Before I knew as much about cars I used to class them in the same category as ferrari's and lambos - just because I saw one that took my breath away! Just promise me that b4 you buy you spend a lot of time testdriving all sorts of cars, its pointless to rush into these things PS. And try to enjoy the experience that wiping out your celi has opened up for you! |
