I think my favorite 240 upgrade would have to be my coil-overs cus they gave my s13 that race car feel. My second is my s14 seats cus there just way more comfortable then the stock s13 ones.

Definitely my Stance coilovers. Not only did it improve the looks, it was a dramatic change in handling compared to the worn out struts and springs. Second would have to be the SR swap, but I realize everyone has their different preferences as far as engine choices go.

Of all the parts I've put on my car the SR swap is still the favorite upgrade.

I like my shift knob. The RB swap is cool but the shift knob hasn't given me any headaches.

I guess my favorite would have to be the SR, I have never driven a turbo car and I just love the power over the KA.

my b&m shifter. It's the one part I come in contact with each time I drive.

Whenever I drive another 5 speed car, it's the one part I miss the most.

When someone else drives my car, it's the part that leaves the clearest impression on them.

My kaaz 2 way. It was my second quality part I bought for my 240, (frist being kyb agx's and eibach sportlines) and I loved it. I could even drift like crazy with a no mods ka24e.

My second are my cusco type zeros.

But Im still na, I think once I go boost my favorite part will probably be the turbo lol.

I'd have to say the widebody ...though it looks like piss in the wind without insane wheels to fill the gaps a 240 with a stock body just looks awkward to me nowadays lol, the body is too.. straight -_-

2nd.. even though I didn't do it right the first time, the 248/248 cam setup. It loped like a B#%SCUIT!! ahh I miss it!

I would have to say my favorites are the ca swap and coilovers. The coilovers help handling and give it the nice stance, and a ca swap gives you the power of forced induction without breaking your wallet.
