Looks nice, but here is an idea... Tein jus came out wid a tein type FLEX it has full length adjusable, 16 levels of dampering  force, teflon coating to prevent rust prevention, includes pillow upper ball mounts, and is compatiable w/ EDFC(Electronic Dampering Force Controller). Here is the specs on the EDFC.... Changing dampering force from inside of the car, 3 programmable presets, Adj front and rear seperately, change from 16 levels of damping force to 32 and a 1/4 DIN, back lit... I think is like a mix of sporty, comfortable ride, to competion... but i am not really sure if they make it for our cars yet but since tein does make it for our cars in other type of shocks i wouldnt see why not.. later... keep up the good work

hey guys check out my new [insert car name here]. it's completely stock, i'm only 16, and i don't have a job, but my plans for the car include a [insert $5000+ motor swap here], headers, exhaust, and [insert $1000+ coilovers here]. i have no idea where i'm going to get the money for this, but it'll be hella phat when i'm done.

I understand where you are coming from, and I do hate those kids, but you are being kind of harsh. And I know you weren't directing that at him, but...
Kid just wants to show of his new car, stock or not. Heck, I did when I got mine, and it is still stock. I am sure his intentions are good and he is willing to work his ass of for it. Just like the most of us that don't get handouts from mom and dad.
Great car though, your going to have alot of fun with it.

i don't think thats called for, he's just saying what he would like to do. Your car was stock once!! &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/crazy.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':crazy:'>

shinigami........you know that my comment wasn't directed specifically at you. but you have to admit, you're planning a little far in advance for having just bought the car. if you do work for the cash do get all that done......... <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':thumbsup:'> hopefully you didn't take it the wrong way. &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/hehe.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':hehe:'>

yes, my car was stock, but i never said anything about planning to drop thousands of dollars into it. everybody here knows exactly the people i'm talking about.

Hey tnord I have a question.Do you know what he has saved up or where he works at?Yeah some of his dreams may be hard to stomach and realize that it will be hard to get done.But you never know.I know a member here who told me when they first meet me oh i am going to wait to get my own place so I can storre my car and get another one and do a sr swap well less then 6 months later what happens they did the sr swap and had extras with it.So you never know he may have some great credit and some colladiral and put it up and get a loan and pay for it as well.I know what i want but it will take me a while to get it but i will have it soon.So donrt slam someone for there dreams and guess how old they are and etc..He is happy to have his car so be happy as well or act like it.But hey man great car hope you enjoy it.

Here's some Video's we took of the TAN 240sx Owner Drifting, too bad he doesn't have Internet anymore.

You never know. &nbsp;I have paid hard earned cash on everything that I have done to my ride and plan on keeping it that way. &nbsp;hell I do on average an upgrade a month (this month Front STB last month boost controller....I love e-bay) &nbsp;And I guarantee that most of you make more money than me *cough*damn Marine Corps*cough* I love it they just pay me garbage. &nbsp;It's all about how you spend your money and I make sure I get the cheapest prices.
hell there's a CA on e-bay now for $750 w/ tranny ecu and harness. &nbsp;It's possible but there are way too many SR-insertSN-20DET on the board who don't have and won't get SRs <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/dozingoff.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':zzz:'>

So if a newbie came on here showing off his "fix-r-upper" and said, "hey guys....check out my ride" and he DIDNT mention his plans to fix it up, people would flame him and his car. &nbsp;"Got wheel gap?", "nice pizza cutters", "better get Maaco!!", "blah blah blah". &nbsp;He probably has spent the last few months lurking on the forums, just itching to get a 240SX so he could start posting and introduce himself. &nbsp;As far as mentioning wanting coilovers, well....thats probably so people wouldnt flame his wheelgap, and mentioning the CA is cool....because the SR gets overhyped in here anyways.

My advice to any newbie would be this: &nbsp;Get a good idea of what things cost, then factor in your plans/dreams accordingly with a dose of reality in there. &nbsp;Sure he's 18, but not all 18 year olds goto college. &nbsp;Some get a $30k a year blue collar job right out of HS, and can afford to mod a car they picked up for $2,000......especially if they have friends who are into modding cars and have hookups (full mechanics garage w/engine stand or hydraulic lift, JDM importer/wholesaler, friend who works at Nissan, friend who owns huge imports junkyard)
