What do you think of the new GTR that is going to be released around the same time as the Audi R8, which I want.

yea silvia's are common thing these days i remember being into them when everyone was on the civic craze seems like every ***** bag with a civic went and bought a 240sx so they can "drift"

About the car nothing common about it putting the rb motor in them is starting to become a common swap, but putting in all wheel drive thats amazing

the 240 is an awsome car, i had one before i bought my 8, they used to be really cheap but now the Drifting hype has driven the prices up. I had around 350hp in mine and it was nice to leave much more expensive cars behind on the highway. RB swaps are pretty common, i know of 3 of them around here, i had a CA18det only seen one other CA around here in person, and ofcourse many many SR's, and it is really amazing how they did the awd conversion. the concept itself isn't all that hard, my buddies played around w/ doing the idea but its just a whole lot of work and having the ability to fab up stuff.

saying something for the 8....on my 240 i had JIC coilovers, JIC rear upper control arms and rear toe controls arms. whiteline adjustable swaybars, every rubber bushing replaced by whiteline poly units, and on highway on ramps the rx8 w/ good rubber and springs is right up there w/ the speeds of the 240, God i love my car
