Ok. It is official. I am selling my Nissan. I've really wanted to keep it until the budget would allow doing the upgrades that I really wanted. But, after getting married, buying a house, and now buying a new business, there is nothing left in the budget for hobbies of any kind.
Also, we are getting ready to start a family, so we need to make way for a 4-door sedan or SUV.
It is a true 1998 Nissan 240sx SE kouki S14.
The BAD: :(
The engine has a small oil leak. I check it weekly and add a little when it needs it. It is a leaky seal, but I never got around to fixing it. The goal was to fix it when I did the turbo upgrade. And, as you can plainly see, I was never able to do the turbo upgrade.
The sunroof needs a new frame and weatherstripping. This is a recent problem that just surfaced. The rubber weatherstripping separated itself from the sunroof frame. When I went to lower the sunroof, the rubber got pinched between the roof and the glass and popped the back part of the frame off.
139,500 miles.
The GOOD: :coold:
Infiniti Q45 Big Brake Upgrade in the front. 2-piston floating calipers on an 11" rotor. This uses OEM brake lines, so no need for specialty conversion parts.
Braided Stainless Steel brake lines on all 4 wheels.
Cusco strut tower brace.
Cusco upper pillow-ball mounts and adjustable camber plates in the front.
KYB AGX adjustable shocks. 8-way front, 4-way rear adjustable.
Eibach Pro-Kit springs. Comfortable, yet aggressive. Perfect for daily driving and for track trips. Not too low that it bottoms out on every speed bump. Very drivable. And, very tight.
Will come with a 300zx vLSD limited slip differential for free. Not yet installed, as I never got around to it. But, it will come with the car. Currently it has the stock open diff.
5-Speed Manual Transmission
CD Player
Sunroof
5-Lug Wheel Hubs
The body is in impeccable shape. No dents, very minor scratches. Very good condition.
The interior is also very good. Some minor stains, only. No rips. No tears.
Clean title. I am the second owner.
$4,500.
