I just got a 1990 Nissan 240SX and it has nothing put on it. So i was wondering does anyone want to give me tips on how to make this bad boy look really awesome and fast?? If you give me brand names on body kits, superchargers, etc..... please give me the price and how much it would cost to get them installed. THANX! Also im not lookingfor the best stuff but stuff that is reasonable and at good prices! THANX!!

I guess I start the flame here, not really. heh basically what anyone tells you about anything is purely opinion and basised. Take a look on e-bay to LOOK at kits and parts. try http://www.wholesalehyperformance.com/they have lots of jdm kits and very expensive but nice. and just look around. After all it's what you want that counts

this had better be a joke.

but alright man, I'll entertain it.

this a forum where most people are interested in peformance over looks. if you come in here talkin about glow guages and body kits, you're gonna get laughed out of here right a way, I guarantee it. People know about kits and all that as well, but keep in mind that we're MOSTLY a peformance community here.

You should decide what you want, and what is most important to you about your car. Then once you decide on what you want, then it kind of comes easy. There are always the basics that ware out like breaks, suspension, and tires. Then there is a lot of general maintenance that can be done to a car that old. I for one would not go over board in one department, but spread it out a little so it all comes together in the end.

b4 you go blowing money on your ride in mods and what not........is there anything mechanicaly you need to replace "i.e. clutch,flywheel,TIMING CHAIN!!". if not then decide on buying mods. just my 2 cents though.

I changed my name to Mosh2Punk57. i am also JCGREENLEAF. but i replaced almost everything on the car since i got it. it ony has 54,300 miles on it. it has a new battery, brand new brakes, tires, and pretty much everything. i just got a brand new air filter and injectors put on. so right now im at the point where i can just start putting accessories on my car. so does any body have a clue to where i should start my spending?

id probably put on some plugs and wires and then do suspension stuff first, ie. springs and struts or coilovers, etc...after that id probably do headers, intake, exhaust, chip, strut bar, etc.... its really up to you what you wanna do first, but to me handling always gets done with the basic engine mods and then more engine mods ;). you can even look into getting 300zx brake upgrade done or just crossdrilled rotors and good brakes, like youll get told, its all preference....until you start putting on vinyl, then youll get made fun of. :Dluigi
