so my friend wants to buy a 240sx even though im trying to get him to buy a 300zx ( no offence im just a Z guy) and he wants to know the ups, downs, and capability of a 97-98 240sx.

how much he should plan on spending on a decent 240sx LE?
what kind of upgrades are possible?
w/ those upgrades what kind of power will he be lookin at?
what are the flaws of the different years of the 240sx?
how much psi can the stock internals and injectors handle?

wow some very broad ?'s

as for the price of a 97 98 id say at least 7k and up

nissanfanatic says to thread starter "I don't like his shoelaces either, they look tacky"

engine swaps sr, rb series, or ka-t possibilities are endless w/ enough money and RESEARCH

i'd stick with a Z if you have the budget to play with it after you buy it.

well anyways what are some flaws of the different years of the 240sx?

click on whatever year you're interested in and click "RELIABILITY". it supposedly tells you the common defects or flaws the specific year had. but of course, those aren't the only ones.
