They are so nice and rare too! Nissan only made a limited number of these (especially hard to find unmolested and original 5speed). If you were to get your hands on one, I'd keep it stock and get a cheap S13 and mod that one to be a track/drift car with a kouki daily driver

And I guarante the SE-R will be faster, cheaper to maintain and easier to drive.

BTW, great pick up!

Just curious... what is it about 240sx's that makes them sub-optimal for the road course? I was planning on an rb swapped s13 for a track car in the future...

Honestly, I think they would make beastly track cars, it would just take a more skilled driver, as RWD cars tend to be a bit unpredictable and difficult to correct for the average driver/racer. Other than that, I think a 240 would be a nice road racer. Definitely competitive if done right. I was originally gonna make this one into a drift car in the distant future, but I have decided to keep the Kouki as an all original daily driver. They only made like 1000 of these in 98 and around 2000 in 97, so they are extremely rare (especially in 5-speed). I might get am S13 shell in the future a d build a drift car.
