The acceleration/torque is excellent. 240's are quick off the line regardless of whats put into them. No matter what body style of the 240 you have its guaranteed to turn heads! Nissan 240sx are infamous for their "timing chain" problem where you can hear a very faint rattling noise coming from the engine, but besides that the car's engines are built like tanks so very reliable. I give this car a 5 out of 5 on how fun it is to drive with the rear wheel drive theres no real limit to what this car can do.

This car is 20 years old the suspension is dead, but because it of the weight distribution and really low center of gravity it can still handle pretty good. It has naturally good handling. Right now it has 2.4L 4inline KA24E engine it has about 140HP and 145 lb.ft not a powerful engine but still a lot of fun and really reliable. Planing on swapping the engine for KA24DE and Turbo charging it. And replace the suspension of coarse.

Tons of fun to drive. Picked it up for $800. KA24E, 5 speed trans. lots of rust but a strong motor. Came with a circuit sports 3 inch catback. Custom made rear lower quarter repair panels, rear left subframe rail, under hood structural support, passenger rear floor, and a minor spot on the trunk lid. Lots left to do still. With the addition of a pacesetter header theres much more low end torque. Makes holding it sideways a bit easier. Infiniti Q45 brakes up front to keep it cool coming down Mount Greylock. Plans to come : t3/t4 turbo 650cc injectors & fuel rail walbro fuel pump meth injection AMS engine rebuild Nistune ecu cobra MAF aluminum radiator Godspeed coilovers Godspeed swaybars, camber arms, toe arms, tension rods z32 rear brakes L28 oil pump limited slip diff Lots of drifting...
