Use the "Search" Button its your best friend on here lol.....but yea post pics, and also if you want engine stuff start simple with an exhaust....if you want suspension do coilovers...Good luck

[norcals13]

Im with this guy^ Welcome!

[norcals13]

Im with 240sxJoe91 Welcome!

[ILoveMyRHS13]

Cool, you bought it with 5 lug. Looks clean; welcome.

[240sxJoe91]

5 lug is better than 4 because you have more to choose from when you go to buy rims.....exhaust's are the easiest beginner mods to start with and they are fun......that's all my 240 has ATM is a cat-back

[yangs13]

nope...just that s13's never came 5 lugged, they were all 4 lug. some previous owner had converted it from 4 to 5. those are s14 wheels.

[ILoveMyRHS13]

thanks man.. is a 5 lug bad? unqiue? normal? or something haha

No way, 5 lug is great.

[nevertheless]

for 250k that thing looks clean, I would start off with suspension and brakes before performance, and five lug will give you a better selection of wheels.

[S13k]

240 is super clean, can i has DRL??

[JulianSPAM]

What does DRL mean?

[JulianSPAM]

[CaptainTrips]

RPS13? Hatch? Chuki?

[S13k]

What does DRL mean?

those aren't fog lights, they are Daytime Running Lights soooo can i has?

[JulianSPAM]

RPS13? Hatch? Chuki?

[S13k]

Its two of those, hatch, chuki. do a little more research and you'll be surprised on what you find

haha what do you mean by strip and clean the 240 and what does use the crx and DD? ahhaa my bad i dont really know

[93sivliaUsdm]

strip and clean meaning, take all the interior pieces out and clean/re dye them to a nice color and check/repair any rust

and DD means daily driver

How much would that be? and i noticed i was getting rust on the hood. is AEM cold air intake good? i mean its the cheapest i can find..

[13esp13]

that thing is clean

[JulianSPAM]

and would it be stupid to lower it? how much would it be to do that? my brother knows how to lower em i just need the parts or something

[nevertheless]

Please dont buy the cheapest parts on the market

[laxands13]

nope it wouldnt be stupid to lower it. Depends kinda on who you talk to, but you could go coilovers for more moneys or a strut spring route, not as low for less. and not every five lug size will fit the 5 lugs, correct me if i'm wrong but i believe its a 5x114.3 pattern. very very clean for the mileage

[Seanzyyy]

and would it be stupid to lower it? how much would it be to do that? my brother knows how to lower em i just need the parts or something

not at all lower is definitely better.get some coiloversss!

they're fairly easy to install too.

good luck with your future plans for the hatch

[visser003]

I wouldnt do anything to the engine right now except proper maintenance. An exhaust/intake won't give you much extra power but will bring a lot of attention from cops bc of how loud it is.

I would start with suspension first, get used to the cars handling, then go turbo or engine swap.

Good luck, tread around the forums and you should learn a lot about these great little cars.

[Seanzyyy]

^ +1

i went over a month without checking/doing proper maintenance,ended up with gunk on my spark plugs and a spark plug wire being completely f*** so no spark to that cylinder. LOL

proper maintenance + (the right) suspension mods...win win situation

how much are newer(50k or less miles) stock engines? would you prefer getting a new engine before turbo or a turbo first
