    Well Street Speed, You can go with a lot of different set ups. You can go with the following motors:

    CA18DET
    SR20DET
    KA24DET
    RB20DET
    RB25DET
    RB26DET/RB26DETT
    2J

    and so on. It all depends on how much power you're trying to reach. As far as the suspension goes, go with Coilovers because springs straight up SUCK ASS. Get some 17" 5Zigen wheels, a roll cage, and a s15 front end and you'll be all set.

    Yes because fn01rc's aren't played out...

    If you want a badass s13, just put a simple sr in it, clean ass kit on it, some works with a sick offset and slam it to the ground.

    That simple.

    Don't get 5Zigen, those are poor people.

    Got a job thank you, and maybe you're right about my taste in the fn1orc. So what if I like them. Cheap and affordable and works great for me. Even tho I dont own any nice wheels. If I had the money I would go with volks. Shit forget the wheels, Im saving up for a motor swap.

    You're a liar, you've never gone to a day of school in your life.

    You're destined to drive a 240 the rest of your life.

    1. maintenance on stock KA
    2. tires/wheels, FN, work, blah, go with what works and with what fits your budget
    3. brake pads and fluid, screw big brakes, I'll never understand why people upgrade to big brakes when they don't even fade their stock brakes
    4. coilovers
    5. track day ftw.

    This way you'll be unique and part of the 5% of 240 drivers that actually drive their car and not just go to meets in parking lots and talk about how much power their AB20CDET makes and how JDM their coilovers are.
    Please tell me if you think my car looks good. But don't tell me if you think it's ugly - only on IA
