Hey, Im looking into buying my first 240 pretty soon so I thought I would join the boards here. I've been a long time member on Altimas.net (same member name) but I just totaled my 1st gen Altima . I am looking to spend around $2500-$3000 on a 240sx and was wondering which year/stlye I should go on that kind of budget with lots of modding plans in mind. Thanks

Welcome to the boards.
With a budget of 2500-3k, you can buy yourself a nice S13. And might have somemoney left over for a couple upgrades. Good luck

 

Thanks for the welcome. Im so excited to buy one. Now I just need to come up with a few grand.

 

Welcome to the forums

 

yes, S13 is the way to go. To start with an S14, you're looking in the 4k-up range for the car alone.

Welcome to the boards too

 

welcome. and i agree w/what these guys said.

 

yeah

s13's are sexier anyways, heh. A nice hatch will do you right.

Dr.

 

Word, thanks guys.

 

no

S14's are roomier.

 

Both are not roomy

 

Well the S14 is roomy enough for um... with a 5'8" girl.

 

hehehe, honestly I dont care about room. Im sick of having a 4 door grochery getter that people constantly want me to give them rides in. I want a nice two door with no leg room in the back.

 

I guess it all depends on how tall you are... or your girl
