Exterior is completely STICKER FREE

I am selling this car because I am in the midst of starting my own business and this car is not practical for me to have at all. I am currently looking at getting a 4 door car. This 240sx is one of the best in the country. All modifications have been made by an aircraft certified mechanic and are all done with the highest quality and craftsmanship possible. It is actually better than what you could ever think it could look like. You wont be disappointed.

Not for nothing, but didn't you use to make the custom hood lifts for the S14. If so, do you still sell them?

The seats are white with a touch of grey in them. The rest is a dark grey/black interior. All guages on the 97-98 LE models are white. Thanks,

Why don't you take off the turbo kit and sell it to me. or even part out all the aftermarket parts and sell the car stock. i think you can get more money that way

I will vouch for the awesomeness of this car. I knew the previous owner, and this is one unbelieveable machine. It looks like it should be still sitting on a showroom floor...And riding in it...WOW.

Is the previous owner a 40-50 years old male? I think I saw him try to sell the car last year September and you purchased right?Is there something wrong with the car that you or the previous owner want to sell it, what kind of problem

yeah handiman, i met you last year and you were a real asshole, thanks

When did you meet me last year, and when was I a real asshole? Unless your the guy running around without an air filter trying to challege mustangs. And have these Idea's of a 100 shot of nos and a t4 turbo on a stock KA. If your that same guy, yes I was an ass to you, cause your a frickin moron. In reply to your question about something wrong with the car. Absolutely nothing is wrong with the car. I told you I am selling cause I need a four door, and I just recently started a video production company and I have an equipment payment now. It really wasn't a smart Idea for me to buy the car in the first place, but I couldn't resist it. I mean look at the thing. It's one sweet ride. The reason he originally sold the car was because this actual car pretty much ruined his marriage. He spent sooo much money on the thing and got so into debt that it literally tore his marriage apart. That's why he had to get rid of is ASAP. Luckely I was there to pick it up :) . But no, nothing is wrong at all with this car. I mean heck if it doesn't sell then so be it, I guess I'll have to keep it:cool: . But money will be really tight.

BTW: Evil s14 How would you react if some stock s14 with exhaust comes from 3 hours away and is acting like somebody that owns a ford or a civic hatchback w/nos. Everyone there was annoyed at you. If your really not that kinda guy but just wanted to get it out of your system that night, then maybe, but you acted like a complete idiot.

yeah that was me, but
1. id never said anything to you about Nos or a T4, people were talking to me about racing me, i didnt come up there to race anyone, all those DSM guys wanted to run me and I relly didn't want to bc i know my car is STOCK. Ask anyone who knows me, im not that stupid


2. the reason i said that you were an ass is bc i went up to talk to you and you wouln't even give me the time of day, like i didnt know what the hell i was talking about or something. I just wanted to make connversation about ur car and you didn't want to have any part of it

I don't know where you came up with this stuff, maybe there was another person who came up there just like me, but i sure as hell didn't say any of that ****. My purpose wasn't to race, i was just driving doen 20 and your buddies waved me down, you could have at least been cool to me

I've known evils14 for quite some time. Never once has he been a dick to anyone I know. You on the other hand. I tired waving you down once. Ignored me. See you quite often. Always ignore me. But hey you know its cool. I guess once you get a decent car you can ignore people.

handiman15
05-08-2003, 01:19 PM
when did i ignore you, and when did you try to wave me down? whats your name and what do you drive? Ok, well the reason all of us were looking at you like a retard was that the people that go out and race constantly are the ones that do the stupid stuff. I know you've seen those people. If I misjugded you then i'm sorry. But it was a bad first impression if you catch my drift.

ito okashi
05-08-2003, 01:48 PM
You dont know me. I drive the Green Zenki with the nismo.org vinyl on the windows. Been hit in the front and the back. Completely stock. Dont go out racing or anything. Im weird like that though.


BTW if anyone has headlights for a zenki for sale that arent broken im looking to buy. Hood too. Old guy owned my car. -=(

05-09-2003, 07:45 AM
From 12 to 1:30 i was by the mall and junk. Other than that, no. There is a guy who owns a green zenki se automatic. Maybe it was him. Mines got some damage to it. You would know it if you saw it.
