What to do...(240sx guys come on in)

[Turbo. Targa. Life.]

So my car is blown to hell (BHG FTL). I'm a broke ass and don't have the money to fix the car right now. I've got an opportunity to buy a 91 240sx fastback for $150: Front end is wrecked, guy has all the front end parts already primered. On to the bad, the motor smokes after about 5 minutes of startup...no clue what's wrong with it yet, I gotta go take a look at it. Any ideas as to what's wrong with it yet?

I wouldn't buy it.

Im not a big fan of 240s, theyre becoming as common as mustangs where i live

 

[Idealsupra]

so let me get this straight...

you want to buy another cheap old broken sports car because youre too cheap to fix the old broken sports car you already have?

lol Ideal kinda hit it on the head, but fact of the matter is they're cheaper and way easier to find parts for. I'm not getting rid of the supra though!!

 

[LilMissMkIII]

WTF man?

Why buy another broken car?

LMFAO owned!

If you've got the room and its that cheap, why not? Overall, I guess I'd say as long as one of them is running and somewhat daily drivable then do it!

Because he already stated that he's hurting for money.

Why should he buy another car that could be a bucket full of problems?

I fixed my BHG for around 150 dollars. And i own a 240SX. I personally prefer the supra. They get relatively the same gasmilage. Parts really aren't cheaper for the nissan either. Stay with the supra; IMO.

 

[rumptis]

Yup, you could probably do a HG replacment for 150 bucks, if you didn't have to replace anything else.

I'm 95% sure I spun a rod bearing too, as the last think i head before the car shut down on me was :dunonk donk donk pssssh:
