Yo, that's the RIGHT way to enjoy $500K! As for the M5, it must have some aftermarket suspension, because the stock M5 has a lot of body roll. I should know, I just drove one yesterday!

Not body roll like the Jag, but it has body roll like a luxury car, not like a sports car! Just my opinion though, since I'm accustomed to the STIFF suspension in the 240sx!

It's my pride and joy, despite the fact that I've put her in the back seat a bit since I got the jag in the beggining of this year! Big things coming though, I'll be sure to post plenty of pics! Both of the Jag and the 240![sm=badbadbad.gif]

Mate?? I see that I'm not the only one that it's kind of grown on to as well! I find myself saying it a bit much lately. When people hear me say it, I justify it with saying I got a Jag now, so the Brit in me is coming out!

Yeah? Have you done anything to it? I recall sitting in my friend's car before the RB20DET swap and the thing was pretty slow. [:'(] It takes well to mods, plus with the RBs and KA, got a great list of engine swaps possible for that platform. I have always been partial to the S14. Plus, I take liking to the 300zx :drool.

I would love to get a 95+ 240sx, but for the age, it's just too pricey IMO. The darn thing really holds its value. Hell, I can get a Contour SVT and match it with a 3.0L Taurus/Escape engine plus LSD for 3/4 the price of a stock S14 w/100k miles on the clock (lol, as if I even have the money to do either of them. Ahhh but then again we all dream about it. It makes us car guys!)

Post some pics of it man, I love drooling over them. Big plans eh? IMO, keep the Jag as is, and work on the 240sx. I could never modify a Jag, just doesn't seem right IMO. It'll never be fast nor a handling machine. It's meant to pamper the driver, and does darn well in its stock form. But alas I digress, give us details, details on the 240sx...

Small preview...Don't ask questions, because I won't answer them unil I'm done. Might take me a while, but hey...I'm not rushing. Not much money either! Plus, I'm not modding the Jag, just a small project I've been trying to do, but the accident set me back a lot!
These are EVO brakes, still debating with my buddy it they are going on my car or his! Expensive but VERY worth it!

The fronts!

OBX chrome headers...important: ONLY temporary, mean while I get the money to go KA-T, because I'm shooting for the sleeper look. Headers, no cat, 3 inch pipes all the way back, and mated to the STOCK muffler. SLEEPERS FTMFW! sorry for the e-bay pic, better pics later!

Ahhh, S13 fastback/hatchback/coupe/convertible?

All that plumbing to a stock tailpipe? Ehh, will that work? Especially if you go turbocharged.

BTW, those brakes look nice!!! It bolts right up to the 240sx?
