That's not to far from me

Under 5k for a 95 with a clean title with no visable
Issues is a good buy imho

But it has mods and upgrade suspension just an added bonus

I a heavy modded zenki

But love my kouki better

I guess the real questin you need to ask yourself
Do you like zenki or kouki?

Good luck
FYI I work over by opa licka airport if you need anything

I think you've posted enough threads for the year pal.
It's funny man I bought and boosted my first car and didn't need to post a thread until after I boosted it.

And to answer your question if you have to ask these kind of questions the only car you should be buying is a nice new car with a warranty

wow bmar. buy the damn car if you want it or don't buy it. do your research and you will figure out what is good, bad, worth more, worth less, etc. i think you should buy a honda or stock 240 personally so you can learn because i feel you are going to kill yourself trying to jump straight into a turbocharged car..

I've been in a 9 second Monty, torquey V8's are completely different than a turbo car. have you been on a 2 stroke and a 4 stroke dirt bike before? That is the best example. one is a lot of torque all the way through, the other seems innocent and then bends you over and gives it to ya. lol If you like the car, buy it. a couple hours of research should give you the main things to look for and if you have searched as much as you say, you should have an idea if its worth buying or not. in the end, you are the one that can personallry check out things that we cant see and know about. You are also the one that will be fixing it, so go over the car in person.

I still recommend buying a stock one regardless because everyone knows the only way to get stuff done right is do it yourself.

well is sounds like you are going to do quite a bit to the car so odometer roll back shouldnt matter. I am looking at a car with 220k miles on it because i know by the time im done with it, almost all of the car will be back at 0. lol insurance shouldnt be a problem, as long as people stop drifting these into every obsticle possible or it might go up a lil for everyone.

Question is, how well was it rebuilt? Better yet, KA-T and not tuned? Sounds like a recipe for another rebuild.

A Ruined 240. Dirty. its been touched in a bad way. You cannot "undo" that sort of thing because the original equipment is missing or modified.

Best way to buy a 240sx is all original. That way, you know exactly whats been done to it.

also, low mileage helps.

Heres a perfect example:
http://zilvia.net/f/cars-sale/517666...da-car-gg.html

Untouched, Low miles, Clean as stock. Pictures of the entire frame/chassis, which you RARELY see in good condition like that. Bumpers have never been off. Florida its whole life, no rust.

IF I decided to modify a car like that, I would go S15/six speed. Cheap, reliable, drops right in, easy to do in just a few days back on the road boosting and the car will still be just as clean and straight.
