My name is Sean and I just got myself a 95' 240sx about a month ago. Bought it from a guy with 107,000 miles for 3,300 dollars! It was in great shape, if he would have cleaned it up, he could have asked for a lot more

Mods: completely stock except for K&N air filter, $430 car alarm, and XR Racing floormats, wanna race JK!

anyway, here's some pics

Pearl white exterior

Amazing what some ArmorAll can do!

^Funny story, the guy I bought it from took off All the emblems because "It looks exactly like a Lexus" so why not take off all the emblems and pretend it's a Lexus! That's ok though, I'm getting some Silvia badges soon.

- BTW, I used this product called "CAR BRITE", It's amazing stuff, took All of the smoke smell out, and discoloration and smoke sludge off my fabric interior parts! I HIGHLY recemend it. Costed me about $20 I think.

-Also, if anyone has a problem with faded headlights, there's a product that made my headlights look brand new, it's called Plastic & Plexiglass cleaner by "Blue Magic", works on any type of clear plastic! Got it at G.I. Joes for under $10, and I also HIGHLY recemend it.

Welcome abord!!!Nice ride!!

Welcome and hope you have a long and happy life with the 240.

A word of advice though, Armor all protectants have silicone oils and petroleum distillates in them, that eventaually dry out and crack your dash. Use high quality ones like Aerospace 303 and Eagle One.

About average for an auto base. Looks like it cleaned up pretty good, it always hard to keep a white car clean. Welcome to the club and done be shy to ask questions.

Wow, thanks for all the great replies everyone. KDashy- thanks for the great advice, I'll have to look into those products.

-BTW, if anyone has a pic of Greg's newly shortened BRM exhausts for the S14 (on the car) could U please post one, if it's not too much trouble? Looking to order one here soon, thanks again.

Well, if U really would like to know, I picked out this S14 out of the few because it was fairly cheap (and that's about as much money as I had) and it was in perfect condition, just needed a little cleaning. Plus, manuals are kinda rare up here, unless U wanna spend a lot of money The S14's around where I live seemed to run from around 4,000 to over 10,000 and it's not very often U see them for sale. Once saw a 95' manual 240 that had some other goodies on it, in AutoTrader,and they wanted over 10 grand for it.My car's got about 108,000 miles now so when it comes time to get a new engine, I'll prolly get an SR20 or somethin' and get a manual transmission installed too. But for right now an automatic w/ overdrive works just fine. Plus I spent all my money buying the car. Don't have a Job yet

Post by **PantherRacer** » Sun Jan 02, 2005 12:31 pm

WELCOME GUYS! what should you do first? the general answer to that has been upgrade the suspension and get to know the handling of the car, and then work on the power or you might have your own ideas from there, (TURBO!!!!!!)

NW 240sx'er nice zenki man, no matter what it's fresh ! lol

Post by **AkademikONE** » Sun Jan 02, 2005 2:00 pm

Please... don't get Silvia badges just for the hell of it. Nice clean car though, a great deal.

Post by **fullthrtl_tech** » Sun Jan 02, 2005 7:25 pm

yeah dont worry about the silvia badges save every bit of cash u have cuz if u r like most of us here u will spend it on performancee mods and not looks. Nice ride though and good luck

Post by **CybeRise** » Sun Jan 02, 2005 8:18 pm

Ya I guess you guys are right, a bud of mine is looking for an S14 and all we can find on the auto trader are Autos

Post by **phreze** » Mon Jan 03, 2005 6:36 am

I am also new to the board and thought I would post here instead of creating a new forum. I bought on 12/21 a burgendy 1990 5spd 204sx fastback. Replaced cat back first as there where many wholes in the exhaust.

Pictures and parts to come!!
