Hi! Just got a 240, need advice

Hi everybody! i just sold my civic coupe and got myself a 94 240sx. I hear people here know there stuff and was wondering if you guys could help me set my car up for drag and drfiting. I know i need a sr20 for drifing and i want to be able to smoke anybody off the line, so i was thinking of adding nos. What else do I need, and where can i get it? Thanks in advance.

Umm, You cant have a car thats setup to drift, and still be able to drag.
To drift you will need to have a stiff suspension. The stiff suspension will make your car drag like crap. Incase you didnt know a drift car is usually setup the oposite of a drag car, it is setup to break traction, not keep it.

Also you will need to use the search function for your questions, so you will avoid people getting pissed, at least until you have somthing usefull to say.

Also dont expect to be able to make 500hp with a sr20 and be able to still drift. You need a car that is responsive, and a motor with that much power, will only be good for top end power, drag. Also this isnt a honda, dont expect to be able to drive it.

My advice. Drive your car for a few months, get used to it, and if you still want to drag race, sell it to some dumb honda guy. Then buy another honda.

dont give in to this guy, I can smell him, hes a troll, nobody talks about sr20, drift, nos, and civics unless they are trolls. he wants you to come up with witty comments.
