I got my first 240 in 2000, probably had stupid questions back then also. Times were tough back then, struggling to find our way, struggling to find parts for some obscure Nissan at a time when Civics and Integras were all the rage. By chance, at my first job, my manager was from Japan and told me about the untapped potential in my S13. Armed with a few good keywords and a speedy 56k dial up connection, I went searching. 240sx.org and nicoclub were popular destinations, zilvia didn't exist or was complete garbage back then, I don't remember. Things changed quickly though. DSL internet speeds rolled out, shops that wouldn't stock parts or work on my "10 year old Nissan that no one wants" started asking where I was ordering stuff from, and threads started popping up in our humble forums with titles like: "Intro Post - Sold Civic bought a 240" or "Cut my springs, car is bouncy, will a camber kit help?" A lot has changed, a lot has stayed the same.
