ok so im just wondering what the first repair you guys had to do to your

240sx, what are 240’s known for breaking down on? For instance Impreza’s

are known for throttlebody replacements cuz well, the throttle body cant take

the pressure after a few years. So i asked my mechanics at my shop and they

said they mostly had ppl 240sx come in for ball bearing replacments and

rust. I just want to know the majority of repairs needed on 240sx from our

club.

-Thanks in advance to all those with input. 😉
