Well,
With the 240 having at least a blown head gasket (possible more internal damage) and the fact that it is running on only  3 cylenders I went out and bought a '97 Civic HX 2dr coupe.

Compared to my 240sx (even in its 3 cylender mode) the Civic is totaly without horsepower and handles like a brick with wheeles. The good thing is I only paid 6k for it and it has custom wheeles, power everything, tinted glass and is in superb shape.

As for my 240, it is going to be a project car. I've already bought the top end gaskets I need to fix it, but I'm going to rebuild the entire engine and make a bunch of mods. So when I'm done it will be as good as new, maybe even better.
