New to Nissan here

Hey everyone! I'm deciding to get me a Nissan 240. I don't know a whole lot about them yet but I'm really wanting to learn more. I know of a place that has one for sell but I'm not sure how good the price is on it so I thought I'd see what you guys think. Here is what it has. It's a 1995 Green Nissan 240. Stock Wheels. Stock Suspension. 3.0" to 3.94" Apexi N1 Evo full downpipe to muffler-no cat-Aluminum Radiator-Electric Fan-Nismo Motor Mounts- Walboro 255 Fuel Pump-RPS stage II clutch. With a SR20 engine swap. I know a little about it but I don't know how much this stuff goes for. They are asking $6500. Body of car is in good condition. Interior is real nice.

Price doesn't seem bad, personally though I would not want to buy a car that has already been modded simply due to the fact that you don't know how good of a job was done or if the car was beat on alot

I know the guys that are doing the swap into the car. They have a shop here where I live and they specialize in doing Nissan swaps. I'm gonna drive it Friday and see how it is. Any ideas of what kind of problems I should look for when I do drive it?

Where I live you don't see a whole lot of 240s. Everytime you turn around you see a Honda with a Giant **** or something lol. I used to have a 240 a long time ago. And I want to get another but this time with the SR20.

The Nissan I had was a internally stock KA24 with some bolt ons. I ran it at the track 1/4 mile. Got about 5 passes. And my best time ended up being a 15.4. There was a guy there with a swapped 240 and said that was a pretty good time for what I had.

HAHA GIANT ****!!!!

HAHA okay no you didnt have a 240, you just trying to cover your *** to not get flamed on.

No one cares about 240 as a drag car.

There's nothing wrong with taking it to the track a few times to see how it does. I'm trying to get into some other stuff. Trying not to be stuck with one thing.

You should consider the hole you're gonna make in your wallet if you "don't want to be stuck with one thing." just MO
