240's are awesome dailys. I had mine for almost a year, and my brother wrecked it. It is now his dd. It's the most dependable car i have ever owned. we both drove the hell out of it. it has never given me any trouble.

Make SURE you get a 92+ because the older ones have single cam motors. and also the seat s are not as comfy as the 92+.

Yea 240s are definitely fun and very good DDs. So many thing you can do to them too. This is how my 240 looks atm.

My bud has a ninety's nissan sentra, with an sr20det in it. Does that count? Haha, quick little car. I always liked the coupes better than the hatchbacks.

If you want boost in a 240 you'll ever be CA/SR/RB or KA-T.

just depends which way you want to go. I'm still deciding :(

Do not do a CA. One of my friends got swapped one into his 240 because he found the motor for real cheap and he was not happy. I mean its cool and all cuz there is not that many of em compared to a KA or SR, but the motor has NO BALLS. He sold the motor and put a KA-T setup back in it.

I've seen some CA do some good power but it takes some mods to do it with decent power.

The reason CA is so good is that you can get boost and the swap is very easy to do. Easier then a SR swap.


The swap may be easier, but finding support for the motor in the aftermaket certainly isnt.

The sr20 has been proven time and time again to be great, reliable sources of power. Its super easy to swap and isnt expsenvie at all.

CA18's came in s13 200SXs from the factory and as far as I'm aware have a hideous reliability. Even with a fairly decent aftermarket support we get on CA18s over here, many find themselves bolting in a SR20 anyways.

I personally wouldn't rock a 200/240sx - The drifter image they have attracted has put me off one for quite a while ;)

hmmm I remember a turbo model CA that didn't make it to America. again I could be wrong. I never found interest in these besides getting sideways in'em and walking away when its done.

cool cars just over done with driftfoto or whatever crap.
