Hows it going everyone. I'm currently searching for a 240sx to use for drifting. I drift 1:10 scale rc cars and I'm pretty familiar with the drift scene. But i think it is time to drift 1:1 . Im from Bergen County and if there is anyone near me let me know. I wanna come out to any meets you guys might have!

Thanks, Jay

ya true. when looking for a 240sx what are some key rust spots to be looking for? and what should i avoid? i obviously know that for the price im looking for there will be problems.

Get under the car and look at the floorboards, and if you can you should absolutely pull back the carpet. Rust also forms at the front of the rear wheel wells and under the fastback spoiler. Also look under the hood near the strut towers. Just be sure to crawl under the car and look at the frame rails and floorboards before you buy it.

should i run far away if there is alot of rust? i heard of people treating it but is it expensive?

The rust under the spoiler isnt a big deal, almost every fastback with a spoiler has or will lose the spoiler to rust. The rust on the rear wheel wells is much worse though, its a more telling sign that the floorboards and or framerails may be rusting.

blah lol. alright thanks guys! how about the strut tower if there is alot of rust there stay away too?
