well she is just my DD till i can get the real power out. 2 wheels dont mix with snow/ice. I really like the 2tone on this car and i usually HATE 2tone on imports. thinking if i end up keeping it i'll spray a new coat of red down on her to get her looking tip top

not an ideal car for winter but nice. spring is kinda around the corner. that thing is really clean for a 89.

i like...i almost traded my rx-7 for a 240 not too long ago. PC magazine did a nice little budget drift build last year. auto to manual swap and they kept the KA,i think all they did was intake and suspension. then advanced the timin a bit a dialed the car in. it was pretty cool little budget car.

yea it would be awesome with some suspension work. even stock with worn out everything it sticks those on/off roundbouts for the highway. but as they say 4wheels move the body and 2wheels move the soul. so she will stay pretty much how she is; although im gonna get HID's cause the headlights on her are worthless

lol just lookd at this post again and made me think of my friends old 240 and all the sideways fun we had in that. oh man 3am sompletely sideways for hours. he needed a hole the size of a nickle patched in his floor for inspection and the guy who welded it didn't dissconnect the battery and blew some fuses,the one we didn't notice was for his tail lights. but he picked me up that night(it was a little rainy) and he had one of those cheap cig lighter light bars lighting up his gauges for whatever reason he had no fuses but had that haha. anyway we were at some lights and he spun the car through 3rd and the cops were right behind us the whole time. we didn't see them,anyway long story short somehow just got a warning lol.
