I got my first 240 about 4 weeks ago. Its an 89 that is completely stock with 125k miles on it and an new/old Ka24e with about 54k on it. The kid put on godspeed suspension all the way around and it was slammed when i got it. He set up the suspension terribly all the spring rates were off one spring was just flopping around and the camber was gnarly. Ive went through the whole car and ive got most of the problems ironed out. Got big plans for this one but i think it looks nice as is for now. Let me know what you think

Im new to the game, but ive been doing my homework in my free time. I want to drop a CA18det in it or and SR20. It will probably all come down to cost because im a college student and the money definitely isnt rolling in. But it was converted to a 5 lug already i tried to make the pictures bigger so you guys can see the rims, i havent seen any like them before. Im going to completely redo the interior of the car new carpet, dash, gut the back, and put in racing seats. I got the 240 because i discovered drifting and it pretty much grabbed me by the balls and wont let go. But i like togue style driving alot to so car wont be set up for one specific thing. Ill throw up a pic of my old ride i sold it and got my s13 the next day muaahahhaha and i dont miss it.







Old ride

I got it for 3600 alot of people think i overpayed. But its cool there is absolutely no rust 1 minor dent the paint is still flawless and under 130k on the shell it had the rims and the 5 lug conversion and the godspeeds (there not that bad actually) so im happy with it plus i had a little money to play with after i sold my mini. when i saw this car i fell in love with it though im sure you guys know how it is This guy was the 240 -> <- and this guy was me

I was telling one of my nephews to get it. I knew it was going to go quick. Clean, tasteful, and very reasonably priced 240's don't stay for sale for long.

Nice car. Nice wheels. Good price too!

But imo, I would lower it and dial in some more camber since those wheels are more "VIP" style.
