This has always killed me...what's up with the 400hp figure? A reliable 400hp 240sx doesn't exist. A daily driver 400hp 240sx doesn't exist (unless you drive it like a pu$$y)
Why do I say this? Because changing lanes on the freeway with 400hp in a a$$ happy car, i.e. 240sx, could be quite interesting. And any 4 banger under that much stress will break regularly whether it's chassis or engine things will go wrong.
but I digress.

The 240sx is a great car and I have always wanted a z32TT but could never afford it so I desided to build my 240. Swapped with all the bolt-ons, she is fast enough to run with my friends:
'94 z28, '96 mustang GT, '95 VR-4 (all I can beat in corners and straights) N/A z32 is a joke compared to my 240.

I have driven a number of z32s now that my wife is insistant on getting one (trying to talk her into the STi). Finding a clean one for a reasonable price is the problem and she also finds herself disapointed in the performance compared to my car. I still love the styling and overall its a great GT car for dd duties but I am diehard s chassis fan.
