New Canuck
Hello all.
I'm in the market to purchase a 240 so I figured I would join and gain whatever knowledge I could prior to purchase.
I currently drive a 1989 Skyline Gts-T Type M(RB20det). This is my dream car but it's not the best daily driver and doesn't see winter so it's a no go most of the year in Canada. Not to mention gas prices. I do have a daily driver but I miss the fun of RWD so a 240 needs to join the family.
I posted some pics in the "show and shine" forum of my other car.
I look forward to learning whatever can from all of you.

Canuck is a slang term for Canadian. I have dual citizenship but live in Ontario. I run a skateboard and snowboard shop.
I could daily drive my Skyline but at $1.32/L (94 octane) and getting 350km's per tank it isn't very economical. Not to mention it's only got 84,000km's so I try to take care of it.
Here's some pics. Please note that I do not have decals on my car. This was strictly for the show.
My old show sentra. All show no go.

Thanks for the comments and warm welcome. I'll try to find some action shots. I had a little run in wtih a cement object and cracked the front bumper so I figured it was a good time for a light exterior clean-up.
Lots of work currently being done/planned under the hood. I hate waiting for parts.
Ryguy: I got that you knew but thought I would make it clear for others.
