Okay I want to first introduce myself to the group, my name is Ken and I am about one handshake away from owning onther 240sx hatchback (90). I used to own a 89 back in the day but let it go about 10 years ago. So now I am in the process of picking up this car for a commuter really (that's what I am telling my better half) and I know that it is in my blood to mod it out. I have to play dumb here and ask what is the difference in the s13 and S20 and is this swap a fairly inexpensive mod to have done? I have not had a chance to review all of the forums yet and I will have plenty of questions as soon as this car arrives on my doorstep.

I know that the exhaust needs to be replaced as the muffler has a hole in it, what are your suggestions for something that will have a little more sound but nothing real aggressive.

Also what is a good wheel and tire setup as well as some lowering advise?

I really do appreciate any help that you guys can offer.

Ken

well s13s body style is different than the s14, but the engines are the same and the suspension is pretty much the same. The 89-90 s13s had a weaker single cam engine
