It's still in my driveway if you want it...


Just shy of 400,000kms on the odometer, Runs well needs a million bucks to bring it back to good shape thouigh. First $500 bucks takes it home....

People always looked at me funny when they pulled up beside me in their 240's, I sat about 2.5" lower than they did... :mrgreen:

FireGuzzi, Make sure you get ball bearing servo's. They do make a difference.

I lost my license plate. I have no idea where, or even if it was on the bike when I left for the ride in the first place. :laughing:

If I had my way it would be. Oh the things I would do if I had the car and the money to do it.

Same here... I'd be a dangerous one to own a 240, esp if I had the money to mod it like I wanted! Drift or speed... Drift or speed... :mrgreen:

Grip. Always grip. Though a little bit of over steer is a good thing. :mrgreen:

RB26DETT (R34 skyline GTR motor), jdm 6 speed trans, LSD, Koni coilovers, larger sway bars, short throw shifter, Z32 aftermarket brakes/hubs, 17" OZ wheels and Toyo tires, all available bushings, and a high quality stereo system with one 10" sub molded in the trunk. The car would be done.

Nah, the 12's go into the Escape :mrgreen:

Want a nice sound, but not too much weight in the back. 240's have great weight distrubution, don't want to mess with it any more than a motorswap will anyway.
