im looking at possibly getting an 86 200sx... is there anything i should know beforehand?

be careful? i dont know of many that are in good shape as that car was never widely appreciated as a performance machine so id be willing to bet that 95% of them are not in any shape to buy. other than that im pretty sure they came with engines that they used in other cars so the parts shouldnt be THAT hard to find

if i remember it comes with the ca20e, vg30e, and possibly the ca18et

other than that i guess use common sense for buying any 19 year old car

slideways i really like that sig pic. its a great lookin 240

thank you :) not my car so i cant really take credit for it but i wish it was!!

aren't you doing that conversion?

add: maybe i love it so much cause it looks like the old school porsche, which i love too.

oh wow i just realized thats a 240sx, i just thought it was one beautiful 240z or 280zx

are there any posts from the past for reference?
