A while back a guy w/ GRM Magazine posted and said they were doing a feature on 240s. He had a link to their site where you could get a trial issue and I haven't gotten it yet. I'm not sure how long it's been since I can't find the thread (I think it was 2+ months ago). Did anybody ever get that? If so, was the mag and the 240 feature any good?

yeh the last GRM had the 240 special in it-- it was cool I guess, more like an introduction to 240s for people who have never heard about it (just what we need, right?).

So about as useful as Super Street and Import Tuner for the last year? At first it was cool to see 240s in there, but they've been writing basically the same article, just changing the pictures for the different ride they're profiling.

Grassroots is a great magazine. They have actually gotten bigger over the years and they have some great articles. I am also biased because they used my engine bay in the pictures for a stock 240 w/KA :D

The special is pretty cool for the guys that have been plugging away with no coverage or props.

The mag is great. Did anyone read the tow vehicle article? It was fantastic.

I would but it is close to 20 pages. They cover trucks from light to heavy to campers and the such.

GRM is an excellent magazine. The 240SX article was a nice (factual)intro to the car, but nothing that we didn't already know. The GRM articles are very well written and much more useful, IMO, than anything in SCC or similar magazine.
