Just bought a 1989 Nissan 240SX, its a 5sp, needs a paint job, but very lil rust which is a must in cleveland area. But Im trying to see what i should mod first. its got 155k miles on it, but i heard nothing bad sounding under the hood,

 

Congratulations on your purchase.

List on things to do
1. SR20DET Swap
2. More HP for the above.
3. WHy Stop, Even More HP for Item #1
4. Suspension
5. And who cares from here on it, u'll have one phat ride with the above

 

i'll drink to that, but if youre waitin to drop the SR get a cat back and intake. try to free-up a little hp. you can keep the cat-back once you go jspec. tires are a plus too in the summer/

 

But on a more serious note, get an exhaust, this way you can use it for an srswap if needed and also i would do the suspension and paint that bad boy.
