Do you want rwd fun or fwd fun? That's the only question that matters.

Drive both and make your own decision. ITR's can be nice if you can stomach FWD, which I can't, personally.

prices? i bet the itr is somewhere in the 7-10k range, 240's are usually pretty cheap so you can dump the rest of the money in a build and have a pretty nice car.

i cannot stand fwd myself. unless the 240 is in far worse shape than the itr than i would vote for the s myself. I do like some honda's too though

This guy speaks truth.
OP. get the ITR for living your life a 1/4 mile at a time. Get the 240 for any other times that you live your life (hour, day, month, year, etc...)

first of all, i have driven alooooooooooooooooooooottttt of different cars. you dont know me, dont jump to conclusions "bud".
second, i dont care for straight line bullshit...takes no skill to mash the gas....its sideways, or noway :naughtyd:
third, yes you do sound like an fanboy with the way your defending the itr....if you already know the answer to your own question why ask it? go get the FWD car, sounds like you already know what your looking for. and also, cancel your zilvia account while your at it :sadwavey:

look at a couple entry level cars that are boosted, one FWD and one RWD....i did this when i was compareing cars...i drove a mazdaspeed3 all stock, and then compared it to sr powered 240 i was looking at....the speed3 was sloppy, all kinds of torque steer, and didnt give me the rush that a RWD does...granted i didnt buy the 240, and bought a few RWD cars instead hahaha, just one example
iamthewinner
01-17-2012, 07:36 PM
im not defending anything. u stated 'fwd no-fun' and i was simply backed my opion.
im sure same can be said for 240sx as well. hence why im asking 240 owners.

if you have then you shouldnt even need to ask these dumb questions
I say you get the ITR, because this forum doesnt need anymore people like you.

roger that skippy, but you should probably know it will be a bit biased to RWD in this forum....i can appreciate FWD for maybe a daily or something, but i guess it depends on what your gonna use the car for, and then base your choice on that...factor in price, reliabilty, and how readily available mods and parts are i guess....thats my reason for likeing 240s...cheap fun...haha

Question would be what are you planning of doing with the car or into...drift, auto-x, drag or just daily?
Who ever says ITRs are not fun are idiots. Guess you guys have never seen one in action in auto-xing or just straight out grip driving? I've seen enough ITRs wax the shit out of S-chassis that has more power and more suspension mods...

you know... flipray was saying that itr wax the shit out of more powered and moded s-chassis...so ur counter is preetty 'pointless'
inputs like flipray's is what i'd like to see and debate on forum instead of juss bashing me or concept of fwd. im not into civics im talking itrs.

If your under 21, get the s13. Save the ITR's.

And who said Florida folks are not educated? You guys may not able to count, but atleast you guys can read!!! :ddog:
All I'm really saying is that this is a 240sx forum...folks will be biased towards S-chassis. To make statements that it wont be fun because its FWD is fucking retarded. Thats why I said, all dependent on what the hell you want or plan to do with the car. I've had buddies who had ITRs and civic type-Rs keep up with 600hp R32 GTRs in the twisties.

if you really want to debate about what car you should blow your money on, there are HUNDREDS of sites that can do that for you without us rehashing a pointless debate.
Here's an idea:
JUST GO DRIVE THE FUCKING CARS.
Im sure edmunds.com has a review on the ITR as well as C&D (Car and Driver, for the 'tards), Honda-Tech, Honda Tuning, etc etc.
Im sure you can find a hosted article on C&D's review of a S13.
No one can make the decision for you. Its been stated, what are your plans as far as cars go?
You going to:
A. Auto-X
B. 1/4 Mile
C. Hardpark
D. "Drift"
E. "Touge"
F. Fanboi
If you want, hand me the fucking money and I will surely pick one for you. (hint, wont be the ITR.)
Keep in mind, The ITR is built with a purpose. If your gonna sticker bomb it, hellaflush it, and do more retarded shit to it, its not for you. An ITR is meant to be driven on a track. Spirited or Dedicated track.
The S13 was marketed to women. A dime a dozen in a junkyard, easy to fix, and overall best sled's in my opinion.
I have personally owned an Integra (Not an ITR, but just as equal) and a S13. I would pick the S13 all day long. I like the feel of RWD, and I like the capability. Blow an ITR motor and kiss $3k goodbye.
Park it in the wrong spot, Kiss it goodbye.
Park your S13 in the hood, people wouldnt think twice.
There's many factors. Do your homework instead of "cheating".

Uhhh, S13's get jacked all the time. Mostly because they are old enough that most of them don't have alarm systems, and most of them are modded so they are more money when you rip them apart in a garage with no windows...
