New 240 Owner
 
Sup guys i'm and Andrew.. I'm almost 18 and just bought a 1995 240sx :) I'm super stoked to have it and will definitely have fun too. I work at Dynamic Autosports so i get hook ups on parts. Any ideas for a nice setup within a budget??

Welcome aboard. :thumbs_up:

What's you're budget, your goal, and do you want to stay Japanese?

Thanks everyone :thumbs_up: My budget is around $2400 for the time being. its obviously going to grow hahaha. I figured with my cost on parts i can get a full exhaust, Apex-i EXV Coilovers, short ram, Enkei Rpf1's 18x9.5 +15 all around, and some Hankook Rs-3's for around that cost.
For now i just want to focus on handling mods so i can get some track days going. I would love an LS7 but.... thats not near possible unless i get a raise to like $230 an hour :D
Pics will be up next weekend :thumbs_up:

Hola, $2400 would buy you a Silvia front clip with a Turbo motor electronics shipped:drink:. It's a start. That way you wont waste money on parts for a shitbox K code N/A motor that won't swap over to the new motor.

Yaa KA24 is slow but for the time i'm not looking to make a lot of power because i'm a new driver and would kill myself ahah. A lot of the guys i work with put together a turbo kit on their 13/14's that give it like an extra 90whp stock motor so if i ever need a little bit more i can do that. plus the kit costs like $600. As for now im just focusing on suspension and wheels :D
