I'm looking to move on to other things. I have bills to pay, and a new house I need to take care of. So I'm selling my car to "grow up" a bit. Here's the details of my build.

1995 Nissan 240sx SE
Came with KA24DE Automatic Transmission
Black exterior / Black interior
Titled in FL / FL plates Clean title in hand, not salvaged
168,000 miles on the chassis
1,000 miles on the motor since installed

Car did not run when I bought it, and the key was snapped off in the ignition. Original KA had a blown headgasket as a result of a failed attempt to swap the headgasket by the previous owner.

-I towed the car home and immediately pulled the motor.
-Bought the replacement motor, an RB20det, from NeoTech Motorsports from California.
-I inspected the motor to the best of my ability. There were no noticable leaks from the front or rear main seal. Oil pan was not dented. Turbo had no excess shaft play and spun freely.
-I cleaned the motor and transmission until it looked practically new...or at least "barely used" haha!
-With the help of a friend, we installed the motor using McKinney motor mounts and transmission cross member.
-Wiring was done by my friend Carl (also known as Carlh on most forums)
-Since this was originally an auto tranny, I bought a 1 piece lightened steel drive shaft from The DriveShaft Shop.
-To fit the dump pipe around the steering column, I bought a screamer dump pipe & down pipe all in one from AM Performance from Australia. They custom make dump pipes for RB's and SR's.
-Connecting to the down pipe is a "cat delete" AKA test pipe. From there it bolts to an 80mm Greddy Evo-TT exhaust.
-The car did not come with a sidemount IC (which I wouldnt really want anyway) so I installed a Greddy FMIC.
-Replaced stock turbo actuator with an HKS actuator. I'm still running stock turbo, until something else comes along that I'd like.
-I installed JIC Magic FLT-A1 adjustable suspension. It rides like a dream.
-Other odds and ends installed include: Blitz Dual Drive BOV, Apex'i cone intake, Fidanza Flywheel and Griffin aluminium radiator.
-On the interior of the car, I have some S14 Silvia floor mats I picked up while in Japan. Mechanical boost gauge (hard to find these days) from a shop in England, Greddy turbo timer that auto adjusts to the temp of the car. I have a leather Nismo shift knob in place of a stock shifter w/suede shift boot. And an R32 Skyline steering wheel to top it all off.
-I polished the headlights to get rid of that unsightly yellowing that happens to all S14 Zenkis. And I upgraded to HID's. Currently it has 15000k bulbs (dark blue), but I also have an extra set of 30000k (pink)
-I removed the stock Zenki taillights and installed the much more appealing Kouki tails.
-The car was also recently repainted. Its still black, as it was from the factory, but instead of the factory black color, I was repainted Nissan 732 Black Metallic Pearl. Same paint found on an 89-93 Nissan Skyline.
-To top off the whole 240sx mixed with Skyline, the finishing touch is the rims. I ditched the factory wheels (using them as full sized spares now) and replaced them with R32 GTS-t wheels.
-Overall the interior of the car is in excellent condition. It has a full interior. There are no tears or excessive wear on the seats, no cracks in the dash, carpet is fresh with no stains. Yes the key in the ignition problem was fixed as well.
-The exterior looks great as well. The paint isnt perfect, but it isnt garbage either. It has a deep and lustrious gloss, and looks 100+% better than before. It maintains an excellent shine. The car sits nice on the R32 wheels and the swap itself is clean. -Since the day I bought this car it has been garage kept. I've put maybe 1000 miles on it since the swap.

I dont know if I've forgotten anything else to mention. There are some other parts that will be included with the sale of the car. I have an SAFC II that I have not installed yet, Z32 MAF, Trust oil filter relocation kit, Trust TVVC manual boost controller (in cabin knob type), and I think thats it. Everything you see in the pictures is what comes with the car, plus what I mentioned.

Asking price: $7,500

Picture time!

The car's suspension was adjusted so it sits more even. I know in the pictures it looks like the front is higher. I also recently cleaned up the engine bay a bit. So it doesnt look so messy now. And the intercooler does look crooked in the pictures, I assure you that it is properly bolted to the car, and the car's frame is not crooked. I think one of the brackets for the FMIC is just bent funny. If its a big deal, I'll fix it before anyone shows up to buy the car.

Any other questions, please just ask!

ichibans13 · 06-16-2008, 09:31 AM

Considering that crappy quality '95+ 240's are going for $5k-$7k on this site...

ichibans13 · 07-09-2008, 06:20 PM

Bump. $8500 message length

ichibans13 · 07-27-2008, 09:29 AM

Last price drop. $7500 FIRM. Cant go any lower.

Any takers?

And if you dont like my price, leaving me a negative rep point is kinda childish. You dont have to buy it, so dont be a jerk.

Bump for a 100% legit car and seller, your not going to pick up an S14 close to this or the original price w/ 6 cyl, fresh paint, greddy exhaust, apexi intake, griffin radiator, JIC coils PERIOD.

94cc0rd · 08-07-2008, 07:59 PM

looks like a clean s14... bump for you.

ichibans13 · 08-07-2008, 09:57 PM

Thanks guys!

ichibans13 · 08-23-2008, 12:41 PM

Bump. $7000.

Any takers?

ichibans13 · 08-23-2008, 11:02 PM

Sorry but no trades. I'm getting out of the car game, and am using the money to get out of debt.

Invested $12k selling for $7000, not a bad deal!
