[tweekers]

thats a nice kit, what color are you guna do it? i love that gen of 240s...ive had a 92 240 before. sweet cars....looking good, whats going to happen with paint and stuff and under the hood?

otherwise looks cool

[tweekers]

finish the body work on that mayne and then go from there....i know 5spds better for drifting but actually hey i gota 5spd trans from a 92 240 ill sell you cheap as hell its missing first but that shouldnt be toooo expsensive to fix


but your in texas...idk i found a new one for mine on craigslist with a stg 2 exedy clutch kit and fidanza flywheel for 450 not installed...worked great

kouki tail laights and type x wing ftw!

[illestatus]

i would sell the body kit, and use the money for a 5speed swap, then maybe a turbo

[trubluryder]

Since you already have the bodykit on, I would vote, finishing up the bodywork and paint . What Color are you going with? That shit will look clean once it done

later.

I'm just not a big fan of flip up headlights. But if any car can pull them off, it's a 240.

you can't drift an auto unless you are making high power and have rebuilt the tranny to shift right.

5 speed, and do your own paint so two things.

you will also need a clutch style limited slip diff to drift.

primer it for now, so that it's all one color, and leave it like that until you finish working on the motor and 5-speed swap, because you wont wanna scratch the fresh paint

I'm not a big fan of flip up headlights either, unless its an NSX
If it was my car, I would definitely do the front end coversion.

VERY good advise IF you paint the car now, you will have to be extra careful in the future. If not, you will damage the paint while working on the engine, car audio, etc.

are you going to do a dupoint paint job? or do you plan on taking it to a track? cause i dont get the point of putting on a nice paint job until you know you can drift, so you dont mess up your paint hitting a wall. at least i wouldnt paint it till i got drifting down really good but thats me.nice car though enjoy it

[Boost_Lee]

at least roller-paint it for now...

sorry, unpainted kits are a pet peeve of mine...

[bcjammerx]

you can do the paint yourself and save money...but you'll need a 5-speed and a lsd to drift.

As to the flip up lights, you can swap over the 300z lights and add a shroud (otherwise it'll look like a saturn) Or make your own, I've seen it done, doesn't look all too hard. Just cut outthe top of the flip ups, make your own backing, cover it with plexi glass or something...etc etc.

something I will do if I get another s13

check these out, I believe there is a 240 with 300z headlights without any covers...uggo without the shrouds...and also the diy convert as well.
