    David Patterson (that dude in blue) I love his channel. He’s reviewed a lot of them. Been looking at his channel for years. There so much for 240s it’s crazy

    @Speedytech7 got basically the same wheel for pretty cheap from a lesser known company. Its a very standard wheel style. Looks good on pretty much anything imo.

    I agree. The color should look good on the green.

    Since you are in GA, I bet your could pick up a 90-92 VH45 from Q45 (or just the engine) for under $1,000 and make a 450SX.

    Here's how to do the swap.

    https://www.nicoclub.com/archives/nissan-240sx-vh45-engine-swap-information.html

    Here's a company that sells ready to go wiring harness for a VH45 to 240SX conversion.

    https://www.wiringspecialties.com/240sx-vh45de-wiring-harness/

    https://youtu.be/pvi7z_EJ7Fs

    A VH45 refresh was our first family project car engine for me and boys and their buds. Know those motors backwards and forwards.

    Stock again- rip slug
    Yeah I was looking at 15s thru 17s for mine but def wanted on the wider side like the 8s im looking at rn.

    Found them for 109 a piece at 16x8 so i cant bitch. Especially since they weigh 18lbs a piece compared to the heavy stock steelies. Might be able to get away with stock gearing still on 265/75s. Well see haha

    Best of luck with ur issues. Been reading ur updates and feeling upset ur shit hasnt been solved yet

    That’s a hell of a deal! Trailers seem to hold their value really well too for some reason. When I bought my 5x8 enclosed trailer, all of the used ones I looked at that were beat to crap were listed for like 2-300 less than a brand new one.
