Well I bit the bullet and bought yet a 3rd car
its a 1993 Nissan 240sx LE with 155k!!! and no HICAS w00t!
its the coupe model with POWER SUNROOF
Its also got a SR20DET … finally I get to play with boost
Mods for now are
Greddy Downpipe
Apex-i Intake…(anyone know if these filters can be cleaned? or do they need to be replaced?)
Full 3inch exhaust
Megan racing lowering springs (to be replaced with stance coilovers over winter)
Problems that need attention:
blown turbo gasket
front crank shaft seal?
busted exhaust hangers which lead to the blown turbo gasket
and thats about it.

apexi filters are cleanable, but over priced.
Check out the amsoil cone airfilters. They are dry flow, cleanable, 100% synthetic and only $50-60. I’ve been very happy with mine!

Paradas are great, dude, but not on a 240SX. YOu gotta have some sort of no-name-brank crap worn down to the tread from all the drifting. Bam!
