selling my celica for a 240

[mclabaugh]

hey everyone! i've been debating with myself about selling my celica to buy another car.

I have an 86 toyota celica GTS, with lots of mods. (non-turbo).

i drove this car to high school, college, as a pizza driver, and now it is my DD. It's been that way for about seven years. You can see it on my cardomain page on my sig. its pretty nice inside and out.

well, my wife's uncle owns a shop and one of his customers is selling his 95 nissan 240 for actually less than what i am asking for my celica. the 240 has clean interior, lower miles, 5spd, A/C, it just needs some body work. which i can just replace rather than repair, then paint it later.

i dont have any pics of the 240 except for on my cell.

do you think it would be worth it to get rid of my hot rod celica for a 240??

Hell yes it would be. Swap a 2JZ into it and you're golden. Massive aftermarket support and almost any part you want you can buy off the shelf.

 

[mclabaugh]

yeah i checked to see whats out there aftermarket for the 240. and there are way more options than for my celica. and the 240 is very user friendly, everything is accessible.

Or you could swap a BEAMS 3S or 3SGTE into your Celica... :naughty:

Well, if you're looking for something new, you found it :biglaugh: Best of luck with the 240

240's are fun, never driven an S14, my S13 was fun as hell though...

 

[annoyingrob]

I would take the 240 over a FWD celica any day

RWD celica on the other hand...........

 

[pimptrizkit]

what the guy above said RWD OVER ANY THING.


if it's a deal do it, but make sure you have exploaded your options and you know it's a deal, dont just buy it becuase you want it.

i was blinded by want and bought the same car i had.....:love: damit i have a thing for supra's....

Get the 240, I'm about to get a hand-me-down one from my aunt. A 92 white convertible. I'm definitely gonna get a little crazy on it, lol. Thinking about going for the drift style.

 

[mclabaugh]

well, the celica is still for sale..the guy backed out and wont take my calls. so i guess he didnt have the money. but i am gonna park it this weekend. we'll see.
