same

i should add all the ones that 'look' clean are also auto

>that first S14
Get it

One day I will have a LS 240, one day.

North Jersey here, exactly what I had in mind. Fuck the tri-state area, everyone here thinks their rusty 200k+ mile piece of shit is made out of gold because it's a 90s Japanese car and it was in Gran Turismo or FnF.

I feel you senpai. Im in eastern PA. Im in the market for a clean mk2 MR2.
>5 for sale in my area, all 1991
>1 had an interior fire
>1 is a non-running project car with mismatched panels and a laundry list of mods
>1 is a riced out, likely abused turbo model
>1 is a molested non-running turbo, been sitting for 5 years. guy wants 10k for it
>1 is a clean, fairly low mileage stock NA model

I cant think of a worse area to try to get into the japscrap game. Its so hard to find clean cars around here.

People always say they don't want to buy modified cars.
If I buy a 240sx and then do the usual mods, coil overs, exhaust, and then turbo it, would I be able to sell it at all? What's the point in modifying a car if it ruins the value of it?

>and then turbo it
At that point. probably not. Unless you have receipts that say it was done professionally at a shop with no check engine codes or issues. Nobody wants to buy your hackjob, unless they're a masochist, or just dont care.

Coils/exhaust/wheels are not enough to turn someone away who has a clue about cars. Unless you want to tank your already awful resale value, stop there.

Unfortunately drift tax has turned the 240 into a scene car that in any condition is considered at the top of the food chain. It makes people believe that a shell alone with rusted out frame rails, rust rot strut towers and holes in the floor is worth like $3,000 because "drift tax" bro. Its at least nice to see its not just New York where this shit happens

Yeah man
Happens with all kinds of japanese cars in the new england area
Tbh you're better off just getting this shit imported from japan, for all the money it would cost you to get a clean running example. That goes for a lot 90s jap cars

Because people want to do the mods themselves and don't trust you to have done them correctly. The whole point of modifying a car is to make it exactly how you want it. The easiest way to do that is to start with a clean base.

Plus the 180/200 has a better engine than the 240.

>Less displacement
>aluminum block
>better

>more horsepower than the American engine
>stock turbo
>also has LSD as stock, not an option
240sx is just trash in general desu

>not much more horsepower
>add a turbo, much more potential
>j30 diff
Anything else?

>aluminum block
>a negative
its like you don't even science nigga

>no coupes where I live
>just rusty hatches
man fuck canada

>hatches
I hate them. I have no idea why the hell they're so popular now.

>155hp vs 205hp
>paying to turbo a beaner engine instead spending that money on engine upgrades for a superior, already turbo'ed, Japanese engine
>paying more for a third party LSD when you could have a Nissan LSD made specifically for the car and fitted by a professional, at no extra cost

Do you use Kijiji?

because type x

Ayyy NJ bro, I can't find anything decent around here

I just want to hit sikku doriftos

FUCK THIS RX7 IS CLEEEANN

no joke senpai I live in Dallas and I saw that the other day. Ive been toying with the idea of getting it.

>$8,000

wew lads

its more that a modified car indicates the owner has thrashed the piss out of it

Don't waste your money on project mu, just go with hawk hps. They aren't as noisy and will last longer

hatches have more trunk room than coupes
more pizza

can confirm
been running for past 5 years or so they work great

What about rotors?

There's a couple near me for about $2,000 with a blown head gasket
