well i bought a 92 240sx for 200 bucks lol and im suprised there is no rust at all! the only huge dilema is there is no motor! so which means i need a wiring harness and a KA24 block (so i can build it up but preferably a whole motor) also i need some motor mounts and a new drivers side door! because its from my buddys 240. please respond kindly! thankyou.

it would be (weird) if you got the car for 200 bucks if it was in at least poor condition, 200 is about right for what you got. no motor, body and paint is completely F`ed. no door.

but in any case, good luck with the build and godspeed!!!!

ka24de's have a stronger block, i dont like sr20's its a personal preferene...a boosted ka24de can be just as powerful or more powerful (if done right) than an sr20... I LIKE BEING DIFFERENT TOO...NOT ALL LIKE "ZOMG HE GOTS A RED TOP, HE'S SO JDM"
