If you only want to spen $20, then sure, hey are totally worth buying.

You said that this is going to be your winter car..... does it snow in your area... if so, sell the car now and buy another winter car.... trust me.... if I ddn't have a truck as well as my 240... I'd be screwed.

oh trust me that car will be just fine in the winter. all i drive is rear wheel drive, and the snow never gets to an insane depth either.

it will do just fine.

Every vehicle I've ever owned with the exception of an Escort GT, has been rear wheel drive. I've even had the displeasure of owning a 2wd pickup. They all suck *** in the snow, but I can honestly tell you that the 240sx is the WORST car I have ever driven in the snow.... it is absolutely terrible. Good snow tires will help, but not much. VLSD helps as well, but not enough to make it go anywhere. BUt anyway, it's the best car I've owned the rest of the year, so it's worth it.

suspension work definitly will not help in the snow. it wont let the tires bite as well. short ram intakes are what ur planning to buy. cold air extension are what put the filter down low. i wouldnt suggest gettin a K&N i've heard that the oil on them can mess up ur mafs.

the car is not going to lowered, more like getting the original ride quality back, with also the addition for afront and rear strut tower bars :)
