An existential crisis in the form of 240SX Facebook Marketplace reviews. Every single one of these cars is a husk of its former glory. This is less like shopping for a car and more like deep sea diving to look at sunken ships.
Just stop buying S chassis cars already. It's over. Buy a BRZ. Move on.

Clout has done irreparable damage to the car community. So many nice cars got turned into literal scrap heaps. I firmly belive this is a result of the "respeck all buildz" movement, there is absolutely nothing to 'respect' with a Dodge Grand Caravan with tinted out lights/windows and a LED strip taped to the bottom for "underglow" or the seemingly infinte supply of Subarus that get their exhausts chopped to make as much noise as possible on their daily commute between taco bell and their moms house

@@Audi0Surferz The clapped cars are driven by douchebags who drive them hard and oversteer them into telephone poles. The stock cars are driven by people who love their car, use their car like a sane person and don't wreck it. I bought my '93 in 2002 with 54,000 miles. I haven't driven it since a guy got in it and ruined the ignition 3 years ago- I'm now resurrecting it, but its perfect. The interior is so close to showroom condition that you'd think it was a 1 year old car. It makes total sense that only the stock cars driven by people who drive like responsible adults are the only ones that haven't been totaled. Makes total sense. These are FANTASTIC cars on which NOTHING fails if you leave it stock. These things are bulletproof. And you could change the oil and filter with your eyes closed. It's so easy. It's a dream car (Except that it'd be nice if it had 180HP instead of 155 HP, and an LSD up here in the Seattle rain, and it only gets 22 MPG city/highway). It's the only sporty car I know of that you can get a 2x12" guitar amp speaker cabinet in the back of (without even having to put the rear seat down). A useful and fun car. 7 pounds of turbo boost would be nice though!

Even got a tech job at a dealership (he would call her for answers and got fired when they found out). Anyway he had a 2016 (new at the time) challenger, that his parents bought for him. She told me that they traded that and her old beat up jag for a 240 project. I don't think i ever laughed so hard in my life, 2 working cars for a non running one, that he couldn't get running. But i gotta hand it to him, pretty sweet gig to not fix a car all day while your gf pays all the bills.

Here in France the cheapest one you could find is €7000 / $7500 and the engine isn't even running plus the rear right quarter panel and the underbody are damaged. Other than that most S13s put up for sale are either pretend drift cars or have some issues the sellers don't want to repair and if you would like to buy one that has never been modified you would have to pay €22000 / $23500 or even more.

Turns out that when he got it his friends were making fun of his ass on his FB profile for buying the rustiest S14 on the market. I guess he got hit hard by post-nut clarity afterwards because despite getting a frame donor he never fixed the rust. I think he wanted to use small patch panels here and there but later realized that the entire underside needed one big ass patch and just gave up. I suspect it'll be passed around on temp tags by clout chasers before finally being parted out a year later.

A guy was selling an 240 SX on my driveway for 5000 very clean 50k miles. Someone buyed it a year ago and it's now a shit box with a blue purple paint no bumber in the back and make a mosquito sound everyday and also doesn't have interior or passenger seat anymore because Recaro seats are better I guess... It make me sad that because of such stuff thoses beautiful cars became so rare and so sought after, same goes for Miata, supra, civic and bmw 3 series.

I'll never understand the lack of foresight when people buy these cars. I got an S12 two years ago and I haven’t done a single exterior modification except for replacing the rotting spoiler. Just now I'm getting around to doing an engine overhaul and even that would be nigh on impossible if it wasn’t for my very experienced friends. People, do your maintenance, get the car free from rust and THEN you can get to putting nice wheels on it. Christ.

All things considered we got it for pretty cheap and its been hella fun to drive and work on and take care of, and I plan on keeping it mostly stock as much as I can, its a beautiful car and hella fun to drive on its own, even without clapping it the fuck out and people just gotta appreciate these cars as they are

You guys should look at IS300s, I came close to picking up a manual swapped one a while ago, but ended up getting a super clean manual G35 coupe sport I saw driving home from work instead, literally a grandpa owned it and was selling it for the actual NADA value. I'm afraid to mod it or drive it in the winter 😅! So I''m shopping for another for trackdays, it's pretty fun to drive but Zs and Gs need the full SPL Parts treatment to feel connected at the limit.

I unfortunately live in the northeast. My state has switched to a chemical spray on the roads in the winters that destroys cars so much faster than salt. Water activates the chemical so you cant even just wash it off in the winters. If you have any exposed metal, it will rust. My current vehicle is mechanically mint, 140k on it with at least another 60k left to give. You can't tell it has any rust because I was meticulous with cleaning... until you look underneath. It is almost scared to put it on a lift level of rust. Honestly heartbroken.

I miss my s13, was a really clean example. Have to thank the owner in japan who sold it at 60k km’s. Only bad thing about it was a pinky sized chip on the front bumper because someone backed into me in a drive through. Besides that all stock with coil-overs wheels and exhaust. wish I kept it but it’d be impossible to daily with the summer weather in AZ and no A/C parts redly available.

As someone that had 240's as their 1st-5th cars back in 2003-2007, this hurts my soul. I have a special place in my heart for 240's but these kids have destroyed them. This is also the reason why I don't go to these car shows you have to register to and they hand out trophies. I've always been a stock body, factory paint kind of guy with my money going to engine, drivetrain and proper suspension work, that doesn't win awards these days.

Stuff like this is why I refuse to put cheap coilovers on my Honda Fit. All the mods I've done are light and improve quality of life, dropping your car ti the point where you bottom out and bash in your undercarriage is not a quality of life improvement. I have 2 coworkers who slammed their cars (one of whom also stanced his). They're constantly having to do suspension work amd alignments and the one with the stanced car had to replace his oil pan due to damage. The only suspension kit I'd considet getting at this point is the HFP suspension.

Little known fact - the reason these cars used to go for 500 dollars decades ago is because they were absolute massive pieces of puppy poop. Nissan is to Japanese cars as to what AutoVAZ is to European cars, cheaply made junk for the masses and the only half decent cars had niche, exclusive markets that may as well have been just politicians and CEOs. They were heavy (like a Camry!), underpowered, and despite being so heavy, they were flimsy, so flimsy that they've been described as 'wet noodles'. They however had three things going for them - they were cheap (definitely cheaper than a fox body or comparable Mustang), they were plentiful, and they were featured in Israeli-American films.

There was a jag at one my past jobs who had one of these. He would take out the spark plugs every single day when he got to work to prevent it getting stolen. I think really he just wanted people to ask him about his car when he spent 30 minutes taking them out and putting them back in.

20:30 - 20:45. Not too similar. For my 2000 Toyota Celica GT, I took one of my days off, and a trip to various stores to drop my entire exhaust because it was straight piped from the previous owner. I replaced my parking brake cables due to a drum to disc conversion, and installed a factory exhaust. I went over to a friends house since I live on a slight hill, and they have a flat driveway. I jacked it up on all 4's and got to work. The factory exhaust cost me a little less than $500, and roughly 12 hours of my time. I did 95% of the work by myself. I had a little help from my sister, but not a lot. Also rented the O2 Sensor tool from Advance Auto for $50, then returned it next day. No P0420 code since there was a spacer on the downstream sensor. I couldn't get the spacer off and the spacer wouldn't thread into the new converter, so I hung it behind the heat shield until I could buy a new one. I didn't drive for more than a week before replacing it with DENSO one. It caused a very bad exhaust leak which practically knocked out cylinder 1. Now it runs just fine and is 100% way quieter. 200k+ miles on the 1zz going strong. Not just a clutch job, but with a day or two off, and the proper parts/amount of money, a lot of these cars can be helped.
