Lowest mileage S-Chassis - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Flicktitty · 11-09-2010, 12:22 PM

Me and my girlfriend just picked up a pretty low mileage 240sx coupe that is in transit here to Wisconsin. I'll have pics up of it on thursday.

just wondering what is some of the lowest mileage s13/s14's that are still out there?

i know there was a 1997? or 1998 Green Kouki that just sold with like 30K miles. and there is a built S13 hatch with like 30-40K? i think CrimsonRockett has had 2 sub 50K mile cars.

what's left out there?

STEEZxIT · 11-09-2010, 12:25 PM

its easy to dial back the odo. Jst gotta have steady hands not to break the pins the numbers are lined up in.

Only way to find out how old the car really is, is by its shape.

Ive seen on CL a S13 with supposedly 70K miles and the seats are beat, dashboard cracked, engine bay doesnt look like its 70K miles. know what i mean.

Marcus · 11-09-2010, 12:26 PM

not anymore, but i bought my 97 240 in jan 05 with 43k
it has 80k now fuuuhhh. just over 6k a year.

well yeah, anyone can do that.

i'm talking factory low miles.

STEEZxIT · 11-09-2010, 12:29 PM

I guess it really just depends who you buy it from. It could be some really old guy who took care of it since day 1. or some punk off the streets who did what i stated.

ki_JDM_ds · 11-09-2010, 12:38 PM

I bought my 1990 240SX SE Hatch about a year and a half ago with 67k it hadn't been driven in 15 years. Thanks to the old lady I got it from.

I've seen on AutoTrade a couple 15k-25k S13's for like $8000.

240cracker · 11-09-2010, 12:38 PM

i saw a hatchback se with 59k miles on it before. all stock super clean... i tried to buy it but he would sell it.

asshole

onehundredoctane · 11-09-2010, 12:40 PM

someone posted up a craiglist ad with 19k on an S13 recently

dudermagee · 11-09-2010, 12:47 PM

my 97 kouki has 30k original miles

Red Square · 11-09-2010, 01:11 PM

With cars this old mileage shoudnt matter. Its all about condition. Some one raped my 14 for 22 miles before I found her. Lol

whereda40at · 11-09-2010, 02:35 PM

i have 207k on the chasie. the jdm silvia cluster says 167k but not a bit of rust or anything like that.

***CrimsonRockett*** · 11-09-2010, 02:41 PM

My old daily '90 S13 (sold):

My project S13:

I've only seen one or two lower mileage S13's. A few lower mileage S14's. Mileage doesn't really matter (as mentioned above). What matters is how well they took care of the car.

Found an S13 on craigslist not too long ago with 70k original miles and it was BEAT to all hell. Then again, I've found S13's with 200k+ miles looking better than my car at 40k, lol.

*exitspeed* · 11-09-2010, 02:52 PM

Collin's (snatch13) has a 29k 95.

Flicktitty I hate you for buying this car and even bringing it to my attention. HATE YOU!

I can't wait to come see it though.

chiboy002 · 11-09-2010, 03:48 PM

mine has 200k and looks fucking new. Nothing wrong with the body except some over spray from the previous owner primering the trunk... soo good

I need to afind a low milage car so i can buy the dash.......... mines hard as hell

Weedm · 11-09-2010, 04:00 PM

this is why you should check carfax before buying a car..

you guys are lucky to have low mileage cars. my car is about to hit 300k....

alkemyst · 11-09-2010, 04:02 PM

I bought my 1998 with 70k in 2004...I just hit 117k. Still in mint condition. Only crappy things are my taillights are gray and the wiper cowl. I have the black plastic dye now and some fine masking tape....need a clear weekend to tackle it.

KiLLeR2001 · 11-09-2010, 05:47 PM

Damn, and I thought my 150k on my '90 was low :P

ghudson · 11-09-2010, 06:00 PM

my father has 98 silvermoss 30k car. but has about 35k on it now since he dd's it

boyou2 · 11-09-2010, 06:02 PM

my second s13/HB/AT was owned by an old lawyer,which lives in Israel during 10/15years.

A few years before his trip,he bought this s13.

When he came back in France,he sold me the car.

It only run 17 000km O_o!

after a few kilometers,the turbo was out.

BTW,for the price i get it,I changed it.

Now,the engine is running in a street racer chassis(had an accident with,sold the engine,blablabla)

SinGarage · 11-09-2010, 06:03 PM

It's really how the previous owner took care of the car I believe in. My current DD is a 90 hatch with almost 400k miles on it. I bought it from the original owner who lived in Santa Barabara and worked in Santa Monica. Has about 4 inches of receipts from TO Nissan and drives/looks like it only has 50k on it. Still on the original engine/trans and drive like mint.

deolio · 11-09-2010, 06:09 PM

i'd feel like a dick beating on a sub 50k s13 around, but i still want to buy a couple of them and keep them till they're worth a hundred thousand dollars. (in like 130 years hahaha)

thrax · 11-09-2010, 06:16 PM

That's really neat that there are still a few very low mileage 240s out there. I'm an original owner of a 93 hatch and have just under 180K Kilometers which is about 111 K miles and i thought that was low. Still runs as good if not better than when i drove it new off the lot!

Giebs · 11-09-2010, 06:18 PM

Neighbor across the street has 36k on a kouki s14.

wow... I thought my 300K+ chassis was something. 400K+ is just insane. What kind of work has needed to be done to it in that time beside the normal fluid/filter/scheduled maintainance if any? I'd imagine it'd have to have had stuff like the alternator/water pump/etc. swapped within that time. Just curious what kind of money was spent keeping that thing running so well for so long.

STEEZxIT · 11-09-2010, 06:29 PM

I think ANY CAR can make more than what the speedo gives. just depends on how the owner takes care of it.

3-4K miles your typical oil changes
70K maybe do the cooling system
120K do the timing chain/belt
so on and so forth.

first owner of a 96 jetta that reached 350K. My dad was a Phlebotomist and would drive to fontana/LA/Santa barbara/oxnard on a daily. Then the tranny gave out @ 380K when he let his buddy who drives diesel for a living use it. I guess he was shifting gears with no clutch on the car as they do on the diesel.

Slammed180 · 11-09-2010, 06:36 PM

My 1990 180sx has 86,000 KM (~54,000 miles)

Not too bad I suppose.

mewantkouki · 11-09-2010, 07:28 PM

My zenki had 74k original miles when I got it. It now has 94k on it. It was super clean.

This picture is from 2 years ago. I wish I had a picture from the day I bought it with the stock air box and header with heat shield on it.
