My intro
 
Hello fellow 240 fans! Been reading for about a month now and finally joined. I'm currently looking for a track car (not drifting though) and the 240SX SE is currently my frontrunner. (among a 2002tii, gen 2 RX-7, miata, and 944)

I grew up with a '70 240Z and absolutely loved it. I wish I had taken it from my step dad when I had the chance - but not the money. Now that I have the money, the chance is long gone... :(

I hope to garner as much info from you guys as possible - TIA.

Thanks for the warm welcome guys! I've already learned a lot - tons of info available.

The whole search thing is kind of a PITA though - I really wanted to know how the S13 and S14 were different... Weights of each, distribution of said weight, engines, transmissions, SMOGing issues, notorious issues - and all I seem to find are parts for sale, and check out my new body kit posts, and you should have searched posts (Ok... maybe a slight exaggeration :))

Either way - I'm still sifting!! :laugh:

yeah there's a lot of good stuff here, but a lot of bad too... so the sifting is required... but if you're really, seriously trying to find an answer, if it's here you'll find it... a lot of newbs post up repeated questions because they're too lazy to make an effort...

if you ever find a 944 for the same price as a 240 then buy it (the 944)!the 240 has mostly low and mid range power


and its a porsche!!

Well... there are other things. Like ease and cost of repair, parts availability, cost of insurance, reliability - I've found decent 944's for similar prices but not any that weren't in desperate need of major help!

Still looking at all of them though - its been tough, just missed (by 1 hour) a great deal on a 92 240sx se fastback with Super Hicas - 1700 - man... *cries*
