Warped · 02-02-2005, 04:10 AM

car looks like it's in good shape, why doesn't it run?

markeese180sx · 02-02-2005, 04:25 AM

it does run....? or so he said..that car is clean man..real clean

Warped · 02-02-2005, 05:02 AM

sorry i misunderstood, he said something about getting it fixed. But yeah the car is super clean, nice find!

panda drifter · 02-02-2005, 01:54 PM

ya it runs, but the alternator went out like the night we got it home, and one of the fuel injector leaks like hell, so i have to get those fixed before it runs good and thanks

i hope i can keep it in this kind of shape while learning to drive and drift it

.and does any one know where i can get like a used set of teins for cheap?

eastCoastMayhem · 02-03-2005, 01:29 PM

ebay usually has tein coilovers for the 240, you should just save up and buy new ones

panda drifter · 02-04-2005, 07:17 PM

im thinking of goin with some cheap tanabes till i learn to drift then when i get good switch to more expensive parts that i want just to say my car is exactly what i want ^-^.

panda drifter · 02-05-2005, 12:24 AM

GzePWR · 02-05-2005, 12:26 AM

personally i'd go with some rims first, even if they had to be cheap shitty looking rims. Anythings better then the steelies.

zanos · 02-06-2005, 09:55 AM

panda drifter · 02-06-2005, 11:01 AM

ya i know before i start drifting of anykind i gotta get the driving down good, but while im getting better at that ill be putting mods on the car.

zanos · 02-06-2005, 11:59 AM

i wouldnt suggest you to start spending money on mods,that you will discover in the future were actually wrong for you.....Learn to drive,dont do any major mods to the car,spend money on maintaining it to the best you can..........and then,when you start actually drifting,start doing mods,that suit you.good luck

sdtouge · 02-06-2005, 12:28 PM

your car looks really clean, thats a pretty good deal getting that for 1500, i like the color alot. just be careful drifting and try to start out in parking lots etc...

i know you probably want to drop the car right now because most stock 240s look like monster trucks, if your gonna drift it, you probably going to crash, so its good to leave a little padding in your checking account unless you want your car to sit in the garage for a couple months at a time like mine.

have fun with that thing!

panda drifter · 02-06-2005, 08:33 PM

oh so true to both of those, since im new to mechanics i dont really know what would be good for me so ya i think i will wait on that. and its a great idea to try and keep some money in the bank for repairs, i hope i wont need it <_<

s13saru · 02-06-2005, 08:42 PM

YO fool i got a set of (4) RS-8 watanabe black face with polished lip... 15x7 with some curb rash... and i got a set of r32 gtr wheels.... you runnin a sohc or doch? i got some extra parts laying around for ya....hit me up I could use the money

panda drifter · 02-06-2005, 09:01 PM

and what kind of parts do you have for sohc?

s13saru · 02-06-2005, 09:05 PM
