suspension help
 

my boyfriend recently bought a 240-he wants to get it lowered but he's going through school so i figured i'd help him out as and get him what he needs to lower his car but i dont know what the best parts to get and what exactly i need...help please

your missing info.

Like the year would help.

93 240SX WITH A KA24DE MOTOR 4 CYLINDER 2.4L

The parts that should be used really depend on whether he wants to do anything like autocross or drift. In other words, why he wants to lower it. What can you tell us about that?

yelling will get you nowhere.

you either need springs (i.e. tien,rs*r,eibach,tanabe) and new shocks (i.e. kyb,tokico,gab)

or just buy coilovers. (i.e. tein,tanabe,kei office)

its could cost you like 400-2000.00 to lower a car.

so make sure what he is going to be with the car.

HE WILL EVENTUALLY PUT A S13 FRONT CLIP ON IT AND TURBO CHARGE IT TO GET THE JDM LOOK
LIKES TO PLAY WITH HIS CARS AND DRIFT THEM
WILL KEEP THIS ONE A LONG TIME

HE ALSO SAID SOMETHING ABOUT JUST NEEDING SPRINGS

ALSO WANTS TO EVENTUALLY DO A SR20DET MOTOR SWAP TO IT

If he just needs springs, look on a website that has them.

I don't see the purpose of just getting springs if he plans to do any heavy drifting though. He'll just end up wanting to change them out, and wasting money when he could have just gone straight with something that works. Even if you just get springs, your shocks will more than likely blow. He should consider that as well if he wants to "drift".

Then again, nowadays everyone talks a lot of hype about "drifting" and "Oh, I got an S13, so now I'm going to drift it -- I'M GONNA GET AN SR20, and go super fast!!" I'm not saying that your b/f is like that or anything, but drift is the next drag: People say they want a 10 second car, because Vin Diesel said so.

Everyone hears so much hype about 240's and reading internet garbage online. I mean it's a good car...but I think Nissan is the next Honda; people are just getting them for the wrong reasons.

There is a lot more to drift than people think--or any motorsport for that matter.

P.S. - Turn off your caps. :)

SO HE IS A POSER HAHAH GOOD JOB. SPRING AND SHOCKS ARE GAY. (NO OFFENSE YOU GUYS THAT HAVE THEM, JUST MY OPINION)

JDM LOOK HAHA WEAK.

FROM WHAT IT SOUNDS LIKE HE APPARENTLY IS WELL AWARE OF YOU INTENTIONS. TELL HIM TO DO SOME RESEARCH.

IF LIKE TO PLAY AND DRIFT HIS CARS THEN HE SHOULD KNOW WHAT HE IS LOOKING FOR.

AND TURN OFF YOUR DAMN CAPS!


end rant.
