I was curious as to when the first 240 was introduced in the US. Was it the '89? Also, what was the stock HP of the 89-90 240sx...155? I am just curious about these questions and any infromation would be appreciated.

 

89 was the first production year, it was 140 for the earlier 240s

 

sohc's = 140
dohc's = 155

89 was the first s13, they had a s12 chassy but I'm not sure on their relation.

would you know if maybe the 90 chassy is also a s12? I dont think it is but just curious

 

S12 chassis was from 84-87

 

post up some pics of an S12

89 was the first model of the s13 chassis that was offered in N. America

but IIRC it was sold in 1988 as a 1989 model, there's a whole writeup on NICO about it
