School me on them. The good, the bad, and everything in between. I'm going to go look at one to possibly trade my 240sx for but they're one car that Ive always liked but just don't know much about. Said car is:

1991 Toyota MR2 Turbo GT
130,xxx miles
2,000 mile oil/brake/clutch/trans fluid (Mobil 1 10w40 & MT-90 trans fluid)
PowerFC
GREDDY PEX dual exhaust
GREDDY BOV
Aftermarket side mount intercooler
Boost and A/F gauge
HKS turbo timer
Megan track coilovers
XXR 18x8 +0 wheels curb rashed
Touch screen head unit with NAV
Subwoofer

"Car runs great and had perfect exterior and interior - it needs a couple things: shifter cable bearings, clutch pedal needs greasing. Car runs SUPER solid and is set to 10 psi."

240s are dime-a-dozen. You would be crazy not to do it.

That said I am a crazy person who likes strange things.

I'm pretty sure you can fit an LS in there. Very Happy

Or a 5VZ turbo? Laughing

Yup. I really like 240's. I'm one of the few that see 240's for what they're really worth. But all these kids that are into drifting think they're worth they're weight in gold. I'm trying to use that to my advantage to move up to a car that is actually worth more.

It will be a shame to sell that 240 to some drifter who is going to beat it to death with repeated curb strikes. it is a nice clean example. Smile
