Re: narrowed down my choices..

ok veyron, please ignore the stupid post 1via just made because it was the dumbest thing ever...

240's are all over priced because they are the basically the symbol of a drift car to most people now days, so more people want them, meaning that the price goes up.

the rx-7 on the other hand, few people know much about the rotary engine, if anything at all(a lot of people think it has a 4cyl engine) and very few people are looking for them because the FC(86-91) are not prevalent in D1 or any of the other drift videos out there, mostly the FD (93+) rx-7 is used because it comes stock with more power, and a lot of people like the look of it better.

anyways, your probably gonna be lucky to even find a decent 91-93 240sx for under 3,000 bucks, where as you can find a 89-91 rx-7 that is in good condition for $2,000 easily... well not easily because they are somewhat rare, but you get my point

not to mention that the 240 has very little aftermarket support for the KA24DE(and almost none for the KA24E) because everyone wants an SR20DET... but with the rx-7 it has a ton of support for both the non-turbo and TII


but its just whatever you want to do
