bye bye dsm's hello 240's - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

BIGTURBODSM · 10-05-2010, 12:03 AM

so I haven't really posted anything since I joined and figured its about time I did. i recently got out of the dsm game and got a 93 240sx coupe with a boosted ka engine. dsm's are power making beasts and ill always have respect for them, but I always wanted a 240sx. I just picked up a rb20 with s-13 harness and mounts just need tran n ecu yet. ill post picks once my computer is fixed till then i'm stuck using a ps3 lol. Hope i put this in the rite thread, if not feel free to place in the rite one. hope to meet some new faces, although I do know some people here already. ill make updates as I get things done.

TRAITOR!!!!!!!!!!!!! jk, i love clean looking 240sx's. my friend has a nasty 450+hp one that has such a nice engine bay. i think his is also a ka boosted engine. would like to see how you shape the 240sx

BIGTURBODSM · 10-05-2010, 12:15 AM

lol yea I already get alot of crap for getting out of dsm's, but it happens lol. still a noob to the nissan 240's but I have some friends with swapped ones around me, ill probably hit problems, but thats when everyone here come into play lol.

i must agree, I think DSMs are way better looking..

well unless you are a silvia s14 or something :P

plain jane 240s are ugly imo.

Plain jane 240's are ugly... but theres nothing more FUN than a rwd car! Thats why I like my 240 so much. It may not be the best looking, the best handling, or the most powerful car out there... but I have a blast driving it every day, and thats what matters to me most. If i'm gonna be stuck with an hour commute each way, I might as well enjoy myself! Looks like you will be too, especially since youre already boosted! Lets see some pics!

boostjunky · 10-05-2010, 09:22 AM

Put a 4G63 in it lol.

Or a VQ. VQ swap is sick.

BlkWhtTSI · 10-05-2010, 09:31 AM

240s are exactly like DSMs...kinda. they break often and are either super clean or not clean at all.

Hit up Smelly240 on here he has a 500+ (maybe 600 now) whp SR-20 240

jpalamar · 10-05-2010, 12:06 PM

I would only buy a 240 if I had enough extra $$ laying arroudn to make it not look like the typicalyl **** box ones I see driving everyday.

Enjoy the RWD. I love it and couldn't have it any othe way.
