Should I buy a 240?!

[slowandcurious]

I own a crx for sale and might want to get a 240SX coupe but I need more info on the chassis and its potential before I buy another car. Keep in mind, Nissan is new to me. The cars look like they have much potential but I need reassuring info. Here's something that's been nagging me. Stupid question: What's the difference between the s chassis code (s13) and the r chassis code (r33)? Info. appreciated.

NO... Get a Honda Civic VP.

hmm why don't you search, there's no silver platter 'round these parts.

[MakotoS13]

man, you couldn't have picked a worse forum for such a queer question.

here's my advice:

if you have to ask you need a civic

[ThatGuy]

Click here (http://www.zilvia.net/f/search.php?) to have all you 240sx questions answered. This should be the first place you look, whenever you have a question.

[kingsol]

240's suck... stick with honda!

:werd: :stupid: This is probably the WORST forum to ask that kind of question. Go use that search button that ALL of us find very useful. :mepoke:

[thx247]

In all seriousness I wouldn't unless you are in love with the looks.

Too heavy

[TokyoNights]

No....................

[G_Fish240]

yes, they are fun cars. Keep in mind though you are trying to get one at a time when drifting and rwd imports are more popular in the states then ever, so you will probably get raped pricing wise.

[HaLo]

that is the perfect example on "How to be flamed, 101"

[sil40sx]

240s are slow, theyre ugly, and they have stupid 80s pop up lights. but whats worse than that is, after you get one you have to answer stupid questions like,"are you getting the swap?" and "are you going to do the silvia conversion?"
so, unless you are prepared to answer stupid questions, no you shouldnt get one.

[nocomedown]

no way man...if you really want a nissan, get a Quest minivan. that'll smoke any 240 on this board straight from the factory.

[420sx]

yea dude.... this is like asking natural born killer "please shoot me".

this is absolutely the worst forum about asking without search.

so, let me throw one of the insults as well

- you are a lil crx bitch. get a civic.

[GlacierFreeze]

Sounds like a frequent poster here that is having some fun haha.

[Sil Beer S13]

Dont get a 240. As a matter fact after you sell your car go buy a Mustang or Camaro those are the fast cars. Our cars suck. Especially on the turns.

[420sx]

oh yea.... btw.... i smell (?) Nitekids in this thread. smells like bullshit

[Sil Beer S13]

True it does seem like a Nitekids thread......... hmmmm maybe.

[HaLo]

Nitekids is back with a vengeance... :rofl:

[ThatGuy]

Typical Zilvia day:

1. Kid Zelda's car spotted somewhere in the world.
2. Newbie posts stupid question without searching.
3. Nitekids tries to make a comeback.

Did I miss anything??

Someone tells a story about drifting gone wrong?

[kandyflip445]

5. "Should I buy this???" thread

[240Stilo]

4. Newbs revive an old thread to post...."daaaamn."
5. Repost of old pics and vids.

That should pretty much sum up the five Wonders of the Zilvia World.

[HaLo]

Wow... think about it. zilvia can be such a fun place! :D

[old_s13]

1) yes, you should buy a car because people on a forum tell you to
2) you are an idiot
3) this thread needs to be closed

I like that. Simply and straight up to the point. :)
No fancy talking, deviation of subject or bullshiting. Just a 3-easy step answer!

I love it!

[Demik]

240' s have a problem only allowing the rear wheels to propel the car

[xbootyguyx]

hey. you just came on a 240sx forum and asked us if you should buy a 240sx. not the brightest thing in the world to do..

[Bbandit]

lol i feel bad for the guy....

welcome to zilvia :)

[ZK]

Funny stuff

The R chassis i.e. R32, R33, R34 refers to the Nissan Skyline... the S13 and S14 are the two 240SX chassis sold in the US.

Really, you should buy a car because you like it... not for performance "potential". I'd say most cars have "potential" it's just a matter of how much you want to spend and how you want to set it up.

attn: thread starter


Please don't buy a 240. We have enough bandwagoneers as it is. Thank you.
