Welcome to the community bro. There's alot of suspension and sr stuff already floating around. Use the search button (top right) and you should find tons of goodies, <<<Tom>>>:ylsuper

1) Reason for SR is because I am an avid fan of Nissan cars, and have always liked the 240sx for its RWD and good handling features. Also I am wanting to enter autocross events with it.

2) I currently have a 91 300ZX TT (Stage 3 or 4), 97 Nissan Maxima (demodded and donated to my sister,) 03 Lancer (beater), 00 BMW 323, and a 00 Miata (lightly modded) at my disposal.

This project would be a good learning experience for me.

Welcome to NICO. Thats a lot of cars. I have yet to see the sr in action at the auto cross. We appearantly had one last time, but I was not there. My friend said it was pretty nice and ran good times. So i can see where you would want to use it for that. Do you auto cross the miata? :batman

$500

and yes I have autocrossed the miata before, it handles pretty good...esp since the car is so small.
