i just got an alty

[mynismo]

just picked up the altima

dealers blow. no jack, owners manual, headlight broken, fog light broken, and the drivers side key socket doesnt work either, just the passenger side one.

other than that it's prime. kinda crappy compared to my 240, noticed when driving in it, but who cares. it's going to fulfill my 5 spd training and winter driving, and it's an easy sell when i want to get rid of it, so i'm happy.

in spring i'll def need another 240


btw the alty is SILVER, not blue. the pic is bad. thank god, i love silver but was kinda skeptical about the blue color too.

I love the altima 5 spoke alloys. I wish those were the stock wheels on 240sx's instead of those gay flower-like 15s.

the 240SX i'm looking into buying next month has those wheels on it.

yea all the 91-94 have the 5 spoke's, they look so much better. i'll probably wind up taking these wheels off though and putting on my gunmetals, just to see how they look. i dont think they will fit though (225/45/17), but i'll try it tomorrow. its a 4 lug, im happy, they should go right on.

i really cleaned this sucker up already, got rid of almost all the rust, am going to a locksmith today to get the drivers side lock fixed, and couple other small things.

sorry i doubted you guys for a while there... manual is pretty fun. this alty is faster than the 240, maybe because it's a twin cam (or a stick). if i didn't have plans for another 240 i might have modded this thing.

actually, the base model came with hubcaps. i know because my friend has one exactly like yours except no wing and wheel covers, and my friend has the same Altima wheel covers on his 240SX that he just sold.

yea all the alty ones came base with hubcaps, i was talking about the 240sx. if the 240sx 91+ came with alloys it was the five star alloys.

there weren't any altimas before 1993, they were called stanza's

[mynismo]

i hate when you guys are right



the 240's been sitting in the garage for 3 full days... undriven. even though it is an auto i am missing it to death.

i really didn't think this would happen. since i got the alty so cheap and fixed it up a little, im going to pop it back on ebay and ditch it. the only reason i got it in the first place was to learn stick, which i did.

i just miss the 240. it wasn't fun cruising down the street at night, passing all the honeys and their bf's watching me in the alty, it would have been so much more fun cruising in the 240 with the nice big rims and the auto. i do still like auto more, the only way i'd want a stick is if i had a REALLY fast car.

owell... anyone want the alty? i fixed the tire, bought floor mats, fixed the rust and bought the owners manual.

the 91+ 240SX rims are 7-spokes i believe.
