Well I just bought an 89 240sx and i don't know to much about them. I have a toyota 4runner and i have other trucks in the past to go 4wheeling but never a car. I know about the engine swaps. But im a college student and i dont have $2000-$3000 for an engine.

1) What suspension is everyone running? I want it set up for street racing not drifting.

2) What are good manufacturers for all parts? ex: AEM,HKS,ext.

3) What online stores is everyone shoping at?

I think the MODS need to create a sticky thread in BOLD LETTERS that read use search button before you ever ask a question on this forum!

I swear if I have to read another "Best Exhaust/Intake/Header/Mod Suggestion thread I'm going to..

How about when people join NICO they HAVE to read a newbie intro, then pass a 10 question test so they know the basics before joining.

Or maybe the search button should be relocated to an easier to find spot, if thats possible. Right next to the New Topic button would be great...

First, let me say Welcome to NICO. You've come to the awesomest place online to learn about your Nissan. I guess all of the questions you asked could be found with the SEARCH button or even browsing. If you are on a budget but want to upgrade your suspension then I would reccommend a good shock/spring combo (btw, you can drift with any setup). All of the sponsors for NICO are pretty good. I guess they're pretty good at weeding out the deadbeat chumps here. Enjoy yourself and welcom again.

Btw, no more trolling newbs for me.
