DrLol I thought I talked to you about this in another thread about a month or so back.
Get a good working car to start, clean 240's are hard to find. After that just get the feel for it, upgrade to a welded differential. It'll lock up way better than an LSD, unless you want a 2-way. You won't need it. The stock 240 doesn't make enough power to damage the rear end at all. Get
Full coilovers right off the bat. Strut bars and tower bars and an upgraded sway bar. Make that birch stiff. Your gonna get tired of trying to drift an underpowered ka24 so.save up for a better engine, Sr20det is fairly cheap, or rb20det, en learn the feel for drifting a turbo car. It's so much better and you can achieve way bigger and way faster drifts, I'm actually in the process of helping my friend swap an f20 into a corolla. It's gonna be an insane drift car lol. If you need any help feel free to message me. I can give you my personal number too if you need it.

Oh yeah, I've heard a ton about sr20det engines. Also, yeah, I know what you mean about a clean 240. All the ones on ebay or craigslist are already customized, but the fact that they're selling them tricked out for 3 grand makes me suspicious. I might check out some local used car dealerships or something. I'm almost tempted to try to get a silvia s13 imported here, and just never make it street legal. Only thing that would do is not let me get insurance on the car.
Any recommendations on cars besides a 240? I've been really wanting one, but like you said - impossible to find a clean one. Also, I may message you, but I don't think I'll take your number right now - I still got about a year or two before I can get this thing XP

Save up for an s14 240sx. Forget about importing a car. If your going to import you might as well import an r32 or r34, you can find clean ones. Just start out with a stock car that hasn't been drifted. An s14 is a great car to drift and daily. S13's are a little better for drifting. But most have been abused.
