Oh really, Scott? Give me another imported RWD car that is cheap to aquire and has assloads of potential and I will buy it. The 240 has everything I need/want: hatchback, rwd and good aftermarket support. If you think that I am unworthy of your high and mighty status of being a SR20DET s13 driver, then feel free to contribute funds to my PayPal account: neolithic90@aol.com.

I just want to build another clean import, this time it's gotta be RWD.

Exactly why I'd like a car that has a complete swap or is 90% done. I've had a total of 5 swapped automobiles to my name so far...I am gonna continue that trend. If need be, I'd buy a stocker POS and then swap it. It would probably be cleaner that way because I am an anal retentive detail freak.

What most people don't realize is the 5-7 is just for the motor/tranny portion.

Add another 2,000 for wheels/tires/springs/shocks/brakes. For a well done all-around great 240, you'll need to look to spend more around 9-10,000.

That doesn't include an upgraded turbo.

<---No suspension mods

Could use brakes...but I mean all that other shit is just bling bling/autocross stuff.

Anyway, thanks to most everyone for the serious responses. A special note to people who have nothing better to post than some stupid "bandwagon" shit: I build my cars for me, not for you. I like building them to be clean and unique. You want to talk about bandwagon? Try Mustangs on for size. You people have no fucking clue about how hard it is to build a Mustang to be unique and tasteful. I've done it. Now I want another RWD car, something with a turbo (or turbo swappage) to build. I can assure you all that if/when I do purchase a 240/sr20det car, it will be one of the cleanest you have ever laid eyes apon after several months of me owning it.

Fuck, I was the head horse on the Mustang bandwagon when the 240 guys thought a major mods were a K&N, Eribuni ground effects and yellow painted trim.
