Are s13s worth having with any engine?

Ok since i picked up an rb20det s13 its falling apart in the inside and the rear tires are gone. I was told the rpm gauge was not calibrated to the new engine and he has no clue what the mileage is and guessed is between 15k and 17k. Well the odometer reads about 168k.Now this guy raced his hatch before so i know the engine has been beaten abit.How strong are the rbs if you tend to drift alot with them and street race then give it to someone else?This is my first rb20det powered s13 and i would like to know if this was a good find or not. BTW i am too lazy to look up stuff anymore. I did some research but it didnt give me an actual real personal experience of pple who own these cars. Help me out here,I would like to know if i just spent my money on a pos or this was a good buy?Thanks for the help guys.

you failed.

Anyway change the oil right away and check it for metal and whatnot, do a compression test, and get ready to rebuild and rewire that mess.

Whatever you do don't sell it, I'd rather you were in over your head trying to fix the thing first so you can learn your lesson.

Sounds like every S13 that isn't really well taken care of.

But seriously? Search around a bit. It's not hard. We're not here to spoon feed you information.

Just do some basic maintenance, take care of the issues, and drive the thing; you can't expect an S13 to act like a brand new car.

murda,

this is the dude that made like 4 polls in a couple hours of each other, all asking whats more fun, a S13 or S14, and refused to listen when the MODs kept telling him to stop and locking them.

dont hold this guys hand.
If he cant do a little research, he doesnt need to own a modified car.
and will never figure out the trick to the speedo.

GTFO ... you are the reason 240 owners are looked down on ... get a fucking clue and search some shit . we are not here to do it for you ... you want to know something you do the work ... but the car up for 5 bucks thats all its worth ..

take care of your car put some time into it . fix it up make it look nice .. till then have a nice time looking like a total jack ass

So im retarded for getting my first rb20det? Second, i did research all the internet tells me is a comparison of s13s vs. s14s. Why dont you all grow some balls and just give info out to pple who have never owned an s13. I mean its like you guys are saying"Wow, you get what you get.You need to research before you post"The majority of the internet gives info on the car based on it being untouched. Im talking about ones that were swapped out etc. There is nothing online that says any of that except for importatlanta and i hate importatlanta.

So you guys just beat up any new 240 owner dont you. What ashame. Thats why i see alot of 240sx on here for sale. Looks like you all dont like 240 owners who just bought their first 240.

You all give newcomers a bad name because they have never owned an s13 before,lol. Wow. Either you all like to not act your age. Or you guys just pick on anyone on here that wants to get enough info on these cars before they do anything to them.

Please, say something else guys. Say as much as you want. It wont affect me at all. Your intellect is dropping from me just sitting here laughing my ass off at what you guys say to every time i post something.

Oh btw please make a poll of me. It will make me laugh because it would be pointless to do. Laughing at what you guys do is not dumb or retarded.

I know the trick to the speedo. Im not sharing it, i dont need to tell you the answer to the million dollar question.

Yall be trolling my threads,lol.

prove to me that this site or any link answers any of my "stupid questions on here" Because i dont believe any of you.

I spent a week researching and found nothing. Thats why i come to these forums to get more info but get nothing.

banning someone for asking questions is childish because any new 240sx owner may not use google to get info. They will come to forums. And you are bashing. Telling someone they need to be banned, retarded gtfo is considered is bashing.

well, you got the advice of compression testing and checking oil. my guess is you havent done that yet, because no response about it.

second, with that few of miles i can tell you its fine, beaten on or not.

third, go away.

banning someone wanting personal info on the cars is utterly dumb. Because google has nothing that says"hi i own a 240sx and love it. I did such and such to it and i love it even more." Here its called a discussion. I see no discussion on google. It only shows me forums.

1. I have no garage, 2 its dark and 3 i am not going away.

This stupidity ends now.

Do your own research, and the next time you make a Thread, try not to come off as a condescending douche bag trashing our community.
