Good snow tires(NOT ALL SEASONS!) and whatever you do, don't put the weight in the trunk unless you want to go around real quick.You can put salt in the backseat area if you really want the weight but I didn't bother.Drove in the worst storm we had on the major highway all the way across the state of Mass. My car kicked on start ups because of the open diff but I even did donuts in my works parking lot and didn't get the slightest bit stuck at all.

Sounds weird b/c my first car was an rps13 and at every little hill I would get stuck for like 10mins with snow tires . But thanks for all the advice i'll need it for the cold months of milwaukee, you said open diffs? my friend who is selling me the car said 95's 240sx came stock with lsd is this true?

thats because you didnt know what you were doing. I had balding falken FKs on last winter, and i made it to and from work every day just fine. You really have to know the car, and know lots of alternative routes....even with good snow tires, there are some hills that are simply impossible with a rear wheel drive car.

that being said s14's are actually pretty decent in the snow, as long as the car is manual.

If you live in a cold weather climate, i would suggest picking up a pair of steel rims and mounting a pair of real snow tires on them(or 4 tires, if it snows alot, but 2 for the rear will make a world of difference).

I used to work at Merchants and you can pick up a good pair for cheap. Heck you dont really even to balance them cuz your not going to be driving fast with them anyway. When it snows, just swap out your normal tires for snow tires and your car will do a heck of alot better. Just make sure you dont try to drive with snow tires on clean pavement, snow tires wear soo quick on dry pavement..

Ultimately, your car will never be a snow tank. Its a rear wheel drive, light sports car, the worst type of car to drive in the snow. I plow snow in the winter, and i ride around with chains and straps as side-work and pull people out of ditch's, snow drifts, medians ect. I have watched soo many hilarious slow motion accidents, and honestly these guys are right, its mostly about the driver. You have to know your limits, you have to know how your car handles in a slide and how to pull out of one. You have to know how to break in the snow.

Find a WFO parking lot and practice putting your car into a slide and pulling out of it. Practice breaking, as well as turning. The more you drive in the snow/ice the more comfortable you will be with it.
