Nissan newb from il

Hey everyone, im on the lookout for a 240 to get my ass into. Ive had like 15 dsm's since i was 17 and am tired of not being able to slide around beside in the snow. I WANT TO DRIFT!!!

Any pictures of your purty mouth?

Nice username/avatar.

LOL @ 77! Thanks

zerepdivad, you want to see pics of me?

Hahaha

Welcome

Welcome, any pics of the previous DSM's?

Welcome, where in IL are you from?

Here we go...

Oh hey! Welcome!

.............welcome.

Thanks for the welcome everyone . Im located in harvard il. Sorry i never bothered to take pics of the majority of the dsm's, i have some though...

This is my first dsm back in ~'03





Current one im working on. This is a full restore, even though the car is clean as fuck...This one is the last dsm i plan on having. You can see my other silver dsm in the background.




I just finished this one up, my "hot hatch".

1. Drifting is done on pavement NOT snow... Big difference.
2. Why in the hell would you ruin a 240 by driving it in the snow?
3. Welcome to the site... I think....240sx>dsm

1. You already welcomed me to the site........but if you insist, thanks again
2. Who said i'll be driving a 240 in the snow? Thats why i got AWD dsm's
3. Sorry i was "sliding" in the snow, trying to mimic the tough guy drifter 240's

Sorry, read your beginning post wrong. I just thought you were another dipshit that thinks sliding in the snow is drifting. I took offense to it, being that I DO drift and have for many years and have taken a shitload of drifting courses down in Florida. But I'm not too sure about the tough guy 240 comment... That's kinda childish.

I drove my 240 all winter for a long time, who cares.

OP, welcome. You got any videos of that rediculous little DSM powered hatch thing?

Dodge Colt

I thought that's what that was. Seems that's the most interesting car that has been posted here lately IMO lol.

how much are you willing to spend? mrs parkle? ...I kid. Oh, and welcome!

No vids of the colt, im still working out the bugs on it...mostly suspension work since its all orignal suspension. Me and a buddy will be going to union grove some time next month so ill have some slips for it and maybe a vid.

Im pretty sure im just looking for a cheap 240 to become a uber drifter, so im sure i'll wreck a few times......

Seems 240s are slim pickens out this way.

How common is the rust on the frame rails? is this blown out of proportion?, or is it rampant out here?

Anyone figure out a cause for the frame rail rust? or just some nissan defect.

very common. and slushie salty crap from winter driving gets all up in dem guts and rusts them from the inside out usually.

one more newb ?, i promise. Is the rust a problem on both s13/s14?

S14s tend to be newer obviously. Buy a car from out of state. Mine came from Miami. Best decision I have made with this thing.

Yep, southern car FTW. Mine was from Louisiana.

South= no rust. Plus most of the hardware for the brakes and suspension will come loose without much problem or snapping and breaking stuff.
