The Sad Story???

Post by **Toms240420** » Mon May 03, 2004 6:28 pm

Sup all, i was reading a mag today and i saw a article that was about a s13. I read a part that said "We all know the sad story on the american 240...." but it didn't say anymore. i was never told this SAD STORY, does anyone have any input on this. one more thing a looking for a guy screen name "gfinger240" because he is selling something on ebay i want and i wondered if he is a member of this forum.....search yielded nothing.

The only "sad stories" I can think of are:

1: The USDM 240 only had one engine choice - the KA series

2: The USDM 240 didn't have very good sales or production numbers in the later years.

They are talking about the N/A KA motor. If you read any write ups in magazines about 240's they always talk about how it is a sports car without a sports car engine. They always rag on it because we didn't get the turboed SR engine.JoshP.S. I still love my car anyways. :bowdown

Sad story? Bah...I felt of the KAT today and the KAT was good!

not to start a flamers contest or n e thing, but maybe they did it on purpose so we WOULD turbocharge the KA, and in turn make an engine as powerful if not more powerful then the sr
