far easier solution.

keep the wrx and convert it to RWD.

also RX7 TII or a FD. or a swapped Miata.

dude, keep the wrx... wrx's are great cars, why the hell would you want to get rid of it? so you can build up a fast rwd car then slam it into a tree after you spend 15 grand on it? just keep the wrx and get a massive rear sway bar. those things are great, keep it and throw 5-10 grand at it over the next 4 years. also if you had that much money for a car and you really really wanted rwd, 240sx would be one of my last choices.

if you want a S14 get a 94-95 much cheaper and easier to find than the 97-98 especially if you are going to get a S15 front..
if you want to do a S15 motor swap thats gonna cost you more than it may be worth.
lets see what else.. if you just want a good handling RWD car a miata may suite your needs but you have to be really confident with your manhood to drive a miata =)

i love my 240...handles like a charm and will put you back in your seat before you know whats happening...honestly though, i would keep the wrx...they handle even better (imo) and are already fast enough...but if you REALLY wanted a rwd...i say 240, FC3S rx7, FD3S rx7, miata, and i like the mk3 supras though some dont... if you want an sr powered 240...get one that is already swapped...it saves TONS of money and time...plus you know it already runs

Get upset dude, call them all names, say your worst to them. Tell them that their being stupid and, to just answer your question.Tell them that flaming on you does not change anything. Tell them that, your still stupid and, your still not going to look before you ask and, all that. Then in the end a (few years down the road) your going to see like 100 or so other people ask the same thing you just asked. And your going to get pissed because, they didn't look for it they just came on and asked. I know I did the same thing and now I see, when people like you come one here, driving faster better handling cars and all the sudden want a 240 its like a smack in the face to all of their hard work. The years they have put into this and, to have someone come on and ask without any work put into it you came here and asked instead of looking for yourself. Now what does that say about you? It says your lazy, you have no heart and, you really don't know or care about what you drive. You just want to be with all the trendy guys w/ 240's. Or hey maybe you really like the cars looks, but you don't you don't even know what year you want. Maybe you like the cars handling but you drive a wrx. With some of the best handling in the world. But you want to go out and, buy a car that is older, slower and, that needs a fuckoff amount of work to even get close to what you already have. Why?

all you gotta do is read and read.... look at pictures... we're not going to build your car for you... anything you do to your car is by YOUR OWN opinion... sure we'll help you with problems along the way but until then, since you are new to the nissan scene, the SEARCH and GOOGLE are your best friends... not the d*cks on this forum...(but i love you guys )

Dont come here for pathetic self-affirmation. We arent going to tell you what car you should get. How about you get a sense of autonomy and decide for yourself what you want, independent of outside opinions.
