Hi NICO. We have a long history but since no one cares and I'm using a new account so whatever. I had an awesome SR20 89 240 several years ago that I slathered pics of all over NICO and other, lesser sites. But then some d!ck took a crowbar to my car, totalling it. I posted pics here, my balls hurt looking at them.

So I bought a Dodge Ram 1500 about a week after it happened to tow the now-shell of my 240. Then suprise, insurance company takes the car, won't give me any money if they don't. Drove the truck for a couple years, got bored of it after about a week. Got an 06 G35 Sedan 6 speed to make up for the lameness and get back to my Nissan roots; it's just not the same though. There is something about the 240 that keeps bringing me back. Like heroin. Or crack... because crack is awesome.

So I bought a 240 today. Another 89 and it's stock as hell, it's so horrible, I'll be posting a thread shortly of parts I need IMMEDIATELY. Stock SUCKS!!!

Anyway, I hope you like my blog post, I'm F**KIN glad to be back, I need my fix. I'll try to contribute, promise. Hi to Greggy-poo, Anand and Keith and a whole bunch of other friends I haven't talked to in forever.

And a pic of my G, which is now for sale:

I know pics of stock a** 240's are lame, but this happens to be a redo of the day I got my first 240, hopefully you guys all remember that day as well.

This confuses me.

Good to see you're back in another 240.

When my last car was stolen, the insurance wanted the car (or should I say shell) in order to pay me out for it. I think a lot of them try to part out as much as they can to recoup their costs from the settlement. :gotme

Makes sense.

240 + money > heavy infinity.

Yeah you got it. It's either this boring but fast G that costs a ton or this falling apart 240 that I can make awesome for dirt cheap. Plus my student loans are weighing more and more heavily, so I decided to go back and do the cheap project car thing again. I probably overpaid slightly for the car, but it only has 114k original miles on it and everything works. I'm going to make it run as a DD for now and see how things play out.

Insurance had to take the first car even though my agent told me originally that they wouldn't. I had only a couple of days to get all my parts off, but I got most.

that and they technically buy the car from you.
