Thats a pretty sweet color, but I think im just going to get the factory Aztec Red and add my own amount of metal flake to it, so I can get the metalic look I want.

Nothing solid, just trying to plan ahead. It's unbelievably hard to find a good local source for a motor that is trustworthy but I'd say 2500 is what I could afford when things come through. No idea if that's realistic or not.

Im not sure about local places but $2500 should get you a good motorset from a importer.

shit 1800+shipping should get you a redtop but those are getting high in miles then.

not really but Ebay will probably only be my real source of any funds from it.calculating in TR jew offers it would still make decent money but no where close to what i want......but i do know that building a 240sx is nothing but debt.
if i part it out ........ all rumors and speculation at this point

Exactly, screw the start-up bullshit. I'd never buy a motor from eBay.

Toronto-JDM has decent prices but they are in canada. Look on Zilvia, there are alot of importer/vendors on that site. I'm in the same boat. I'll be looking for a motor set by the end of feb. LMK if you find anything local for a decent price.
