Nissan 240 photo - Just had to share...

[bestwheelbase]

Our co-founder, CD, is selling his 240 after almost 20 years of original ownership. Editing photos and compiling the sale advert, I couldn't help but share this cool photo.

Back in the day we called this a "double exposure." Nowadays of course it's two digital files combined. Shout out to Don Wright Designs for the fun photoshoot!

Looks like 164HP at the crank. Still a fun car.

Like the FT86 cars, horsepower is only part of the equation.

I understand that, but he's defiantly running some mods and i'd like to see what power gains he achieved.

Theres so much you can do to a 240, so it's good to see someone not running a huge ass turbo and different colored wheels.

Hehe. All in good fun. It does not have crazy power. It's strong suit is handling and balance.

I had an S14 a few years ago. First thing I noticed when I got my BRZ was how similar it was to it.

It was a KA car too, but with 12.5:1 compression and a Jim Wolf ECU.
JIC Coils, Sparco Evo, Autopower roll bar. Bliss.

Cool! This one has some similarities to yours. They are great fun, he is just ready to let someone else enjoy it. Hopefully we can find a good home where it will be loved and appreciated.

They are similar, one of the main things that lead me to buy a new FRS was years of searching for a like new S14 and always coming up empty. You lose so much money buying new but a nice S14 is a difficult find around here.

You won't find a clean one, you won't ever find a clean one. Just one of the things we have to accept.

It's hard to find a clean one anywhere these days.

My sentiments exactly!

This is one of a dying breed. It's clean. Hopefully the rest of the photos will illustrate that, and we can find the right home for it.

The 270R was based on the early cars. Seems like we always tend to fall in love with the first iteration of a vehicle. I guess it comes from the experience of it being the first design etched in our minds when the vehicle launches.
