I have the springs for my 240, just haven't put them on yet. I bought them at the same time as my rims. Then I'll have to wait a few months and pay off what I owe, then I'm thinking of what I want to do to the engine. I don't really want to do much more to the exterior except paint the calibers red, and need to paint the wipers where the black paint is coming off. Need to fix a dent in the passenger side that someone did at Walmart one day..I was pissed!
What do you think I should do that is affordable...engine? I was thinking I could do the intake first. This is where I lack in knowledge...I don't understand everything under the hood. I just like to work on the exterior and interior. calibers ![]() ------------------ Jules

I don't have to spend on labour...my boyfriend does it all. My car isn't faster than his...I think once I do something to the engine though...then it should be hehe! His is already done.
![]() ![]() Yeah, basically, I need the cheapest way to make my car faster than his haha...then I can show him up. But, he'd probably like that! :tounge: ------------------ Jules

No his is definitely faster with all the stuff done to it. Mine engine is still stock...I'm working on that later in the summer. But, he says if I do a few things to it...not even an engine swap...and I've got him beat! He'll tell me what to do
I don't think he has a problem letting me win ![]() ------------------ Jules

The Spec is faster...14.7 @ 94.6mph....there isn't any n/a KA24DE powered 240's with that kind of time.
The 240 has some definite potential but it all depends on what Jules wants to do with it and what she wants it to be when she's done. All the decisions are hers...I just try to guide her away from shitty products and over priced stuff. She's lucky too cuz all of her installs are free. ![]() ------------------ Rob 2002 Nissan Sentra SE-R Spec-V w/SP 1983 Datsun 280ZX Turbo...alive again and running 20PSI 1993 Pontiac Grand Prix LE - Missing...lol! |
