Default good and bads about 240's??????

lets just get this right i'm not your usual guy who buys a 240 so he can call himself a drifter cuz i'm not a drifter i have drifted but it was in an s10.
now i just got my first 240 it's a 89 hatch shell right now but i kinda wanna do an sr swap in it but i wanna know what the best of the best is,what to do, what not to do basicly the goods and bad.that even means the ka's

ka-t!!! thats what i am doing...easy as peas! just bolt in that dohc, and get yourself and manifold conversion for just over a hundred bucks...then you can get yourself a turbo...you can even use the t28 off the s14 sr with that manifold!!! more liters and bigger pistons for around the same in cost...(t28 kit around 1100 bucks) just my 2 cents...good luck!

240's are overall just fun to drive . that is why i went out and got me an S14. Yes Supras were fun for me but ate my money for mods

my 2 cents would be, if you were to drive ka-t your car, if you buy a dohc. dont just swap it in. i honestly wouldnt turbo a ka with thousands of miles on it. i would maybe fully rebuild it, and maybe bore it 20 or 30 over to handle bigger pistons and more boost, or not do it at all. just my .02

ka is a fun motor!
doesnt need to be turbo'd.
if you get a good one, and keep up with oil and coolant, little stuff!
woooo hoooo, you can beat it left and right,
and if anything ever did go wrong with it, just spend around 350, and get another one!
thats what ive learned anyway.

edit: o ya get an after market clutch to!
