Sick of shitbox 240s, but staying in the family.

Yeah...

I know Burgy and I love his Y33, but I found something that I have some big plans for...

Found a G50 with 70,000 original miles that I am picking up this weekend.

Going to get the 4x4 fixed first then some wheels. After that I'll set upon the glorious search for President parts.

I'm sure Burgy will have some great ideas as usual.

Got the car, needs some work. Valve Cover Gaskets, A few fuses and a nice cleaning.

The Oil change sticker on the windshield showed an oil change in January 2008 with 71,000 miles. The car has had less than 1000 miles on it since 2008...

Spent $150 in cleaning stuff and replaceable parts.

Now to find a good leather cleaner/conditioner. Any suggestions??

For light cleaning/conditioning I use Meguiars Gold Class Wipes, works good for me. Not sure for deeper cleaning tho. Later.

Last 240 was just a bucket I kept fixing shit on. kinda like the last 4-5 I have owned. I tried a 4 door with a Cressida, but just was not a fan.

I can't hate on 240's as I work for a company that makes 90% of it's money on the 240 market.

But on that note... after some maintenance work I'll have this beast on the dyno for a ROM tune. I'll post up results once I get them.

Mabey by that point I'll get a vouch or the mods will let me post other places. :ughrun:

Nice platform to start with!

Coming from a s14 owner, when i hear shitbox 240s, i think of broke back s13s, and the half ass work people do to them cause they cant afford s14s hahaha. IMHO Find a chassis not needing so much attention like your new found Q=)

^Yes we do. You can find nice G50's here at good prices. Jason's looks ultra clean. I can't wait to see this in person....epecially after a custom Enthalpy tune and dyno runs!
