Overview
1993 Nissan 240SX appears on the official Forza Horizon 6 car list as a D Class (entry-level pace) entry in the base roster. This page covers how it tends to drive in its class, where it fits inside the Japan setting, how to think about a starting tune, and which roster entries it naturally compares against.
Background and Forza Horizon 6 context
The S13 generation 240SX for North America used the truck-based KA24DE 2.4-litre four instead of the Japanese market's SR20DET, but kept the same multi-link rear and 50/50 weight balance. Its low price, light weight and forgiving chassis made it the entry point into amateur drifting and grassroots motorsport. On the official Forza Horizon 6 car list this 1993 Nissan entry sits in the D Class (entry-level pace) bracket inside the base roster, which is the placement players come to this page expecting to confirm against the public source. Inside the same D Class (entry-level pace) bracket, the closest comparison roster entries for players are 1980 Abarth Fiat 131 and 1993 Autozam AZ-1, which is the D Class (entry-level pace) peer group this car is usually weighed against. The JDM tag fits the wider Japanese setting of Forza Horizon 6, where this make tends to be a focal point of cruise lobbies and theme nights.
Driving feel in Forza Horizon 6
S13 240SX was the North American-market S-chassis — KA24DE 2.4 naturally aspirated inline-four making 155hp (no SR20DET as standard) through a five-speed manual driving the rear wheels. In D-class events on Japan's mountain routes the 240SX is the entry point into amateur drifting; the chassis behaviour is closer to the Silvia K's it shares its body with, just without the turbo engine.
Where it shines
Use D class entries for the lowest tier of road races, learning loops, scenic photo runs, and casual lobbies where players are picking starter cars.
Tuning starting point
Tuning at this tier is mostly about tire pressure, brake balance and gearing. A small differential adjustment can already change the car a lot.
How to get 1993 Nissan 240SX
This car is listed without an add-on label on the official Forza Horizon 6 source, so we treat it as part of the base roster. Forza Horizon 6 launches on May 19, 2026, and before that date the public Autoshow may not surface every base-roster car yet — players asking 'how do I get this car, it is not in the Autoshow?' on Reddit or the Forza forums usually find the answer is 'wait for launch day or a post-launch update'. After launch, base-roster cars are normally available through credits in the Autoshow, Wheelspins, Festival Playlist rewards, or the in-game showcase that introduces new vehicles.
