    my 240sx (coming soon)

    well guys i finally went and got me one of them good handlin cars that doesnt have truck suspension on it. an 89 nissan 240sx) (or as me and my friends like to call it the freesan 420sx). its only got the KA24E in it but it should still be fast as hell when i am done with it. i picked baby up for the low low price of free dollars and i am building a race car for my local banked oval track. i already have the car completley gutted, real functional ram air, and open headers on it. all it needs to run is a new starter which should be coming in the mail any day now. it should be a blast to drive and now at least i have a car that even you guys probably like. hopefully she won't get too banged up in her first couple races. i'll get some pics up for you guys soon i promise

    Er... unless you have negative dollars you could do that.
    I'm dropping out to create a company that starts with motorcycles, then cars, and forty years later signs a legendary Brazilian driver who has a public and expensive feud with his French teammate.

    sounds neat man, i don't know what the KA24e is like but the SR20det makes easy power, should be a fun little car

    Yeah, but he got the car for free. As for the stuff, only the safety equipment might actually cost you some money. Otherwise you can go to the local scrap-yard and pick and pull what you want.

    Very interesting project Juggs, bring in the pics! I can't wait to see it. Getting a 240SX for free is awesome, even if the engine is the KA24E. You still have 140 hp and 152 lb-ft of torque to play it, and the car is very light!

    Congrats on the purchase Juggs, any special reason you went for the 240sx?

    Congraulations, enjoy it.

    By the way that's we called the 200SX, isn't it?

    Yep. But I think we only got one generation over here. I'm not sure.
