So I managed to snag a Nissan 240SX (RPS13) from a Vietnam war vet the other day...

FOR $800!

It has over 200,000 mi. on the body, but it has a brand new KA24DE engine (pre-set with a couple of intake upgrades as well!). And so, I decided to work (with some help from a neighbor) on it to restore itself to a newer refined variant...

I will post pictures later on, as it is too dark for me right now.
 
Congrats!!!!!!!

You need to post pictures ASAP, good to see another rps13 owner :).

Just expect it to destroy your bank account loll.

So... Here it is, in all of its glory. I'm keeping the car bra on, for some reason, I kinda like the look.

Very dirty dash, gotta clean it up sometime soon.

There originally was a muscle car-esque T-Shifter, and I didn't like the look, so I replaced it with this shift knob. Cold to the touch!

And this morning, I took out the humongous rear lip on the body (it really didn't look good. AT ALL.).

I may go with a Type X style body for the RPS13 in the near future. Thoughts?​

Yup, I said it didn't look that good on the 240SX... Plus it was a poorly made lip as well (it was cracking everywhere, and it already split in half horizontally).
 
First thing I would do is put tape over those holes or get those holes filled.

Second save up like 400 dollars and keep it in your savings for urgent emergencies for you car.

Type X in my opinion make the car look so much sportier. I like the chuki look but the kouki in my opinion makes it look just so much more aggressive. Except I prefer the chuki skirts over kouki skirts =p.

Are you trying to get the oem looking one or like the version select one with like those 3 square holes in the middle?

Probably the OEM-Styled one. I've heard they are rare to find.
