Well, my love affair with the s13 comes to an end. I'm a little sad, because I wanted to make this car so amazing. Alas, college, money and fate have aligned against me multiple times. So for a mere 3500$ She's yours. I've had a blast with her, some light autocrossing, no street racing, no drifting. Day to day I drive her to college and back, she's been treated pretty well by me. Not beaten to hell like a lot of s13's.

Info-
Maroon
120xxx engine/chassis
Automatic

The Good-
3 tires with 80% tred, one with 100%, bought it today to replace a punctured one
1 month old top professionally installed
New starter
Spare Radiator
Spare KA24(with around 170k) and 5spd tranny
5spd crossmember, clutch line, pedal, etc, everything but the manual driveshaft to swap in a manual
Spare Valve cover(was going to paint it)
Extra drivers side headlight housing
Extra Exhaust cam(was going to swap that in the intake side)
NO RUST I was under the car recently when replacing the starter, the only thing rusted is some surface rust on the stock exhaust, who cares.
2 Spare tires, one alloy one steelie(great for track day or drift spares)
4 new Brembo drilled and slotted rotors

The Bad-
The front end has been repaired. 3 times. I could lie to you, the work is amazing and it would take a close eye to pick up on it. But I'll be honest. 2 deer and a fender bender with a truck. The plus side is, I dropped a lot of money on the repairs(part of the reason why I can't afford to tune it, therefore won't keep it) and the chassis is still straight, the suspension still good. And the paint on the front is new, so that's good.

Small clearcoat fade on the trunk lid.

A single connecting arm on the top needs to be welded. Anyone with the tool could do it in 15 seconds. I live at an apartment, and lack welding tools.

Small dent in passenger door, paint not cracked. This was from the deer.

My plan was to swap in a 5spd and turbo it. I thought a KA-T Vert would be quite sexy. Well I can't turbo it myself and I can't afford to pay a shop, but I did buy a few turbo items. I have a boost gauge, GReddy turbo timer, boost controller and an OEM DSM external BOV.

So you're getting a car, another engine, another tranny, spare parts and turbo parts. I will drive 400 miles if needed. Any further, and you cover my gas.

As for trades. I'll take a 91-94 Legacy SS manual, good condition 325, or anything manual that's RWD or AWD and good handling. Not interested in any more 240s.

If you look really closely here, you can see the small dent. I'm pretty sure it could be pulled out, but I haven't bothered.

And here's the truck damage. That was 8 months ago. Before the two deer I hit. As you can see from the more recent photos, she's completely repaired. If you want a picture of the new top, I'll try and get one of that too in the next day or two.
