Thanks for looking at my 240, This 240 is practically rare. I don’t believe there is another like it, It has 55k ORIGNAL miles and I’m the second owner! Everything about this car is reliable and fast! It is NOT stock!!! The motor is a perfect running condition raced only a few times for testing suspension, The motor is very strong no proof of Dyno but I feel 170 HP. Never has seen a drifting competition yet, but if you delay any longer I will have to take it out. $3,00 SR20 240’s are great… for a beater. I’m selling a real deal suspension completely finished with no other upgrades necessary. Take this car around a tight track, and the SR20’s with stock suspension will be crying. All the work done to this car was done by either Strike Speed Auto or Works Motor Sports. The Exhaust was done by Dave’s Muffler Shop, The Exterior and Interior were done by a friend with over 20yrs in the bis. and was completely restored 150% with thick glitter paint silver and two tone leather that is very elegant and durable. I can provide proof of anything that you might question, I will waste my time with ‘Flamers’ who have no money and have a lot of jealously. I’m going to add updated pictures of the car maybe even a video and I’ll try to get pictures of the suspension and other upgrades. I recommend coming in person to really grasp what this car is all about, I can get it to a shop so It can be racked for you to view. Pictures are on my Photobucket.

240’s have a reputation of being a cheap drift car, I’ve taken its reputation and scaled it with RX-7’s, S2000’s and other priceless cars; I’ve turn it into a show car with everything up to hot rod standards. This is one of the finest 240’s on the street I’ve added all these upgrades in a 3month period to reassure you they are 100% brand new hardly broken in but tested. It was painted and refurbished this year. ** The car is currently at Srike Street Auto getting the reinforced Subframe done ** That's how NEW these upgrades are. I’ll bring it home this weekend.


Test Drive with Money in Hand NO APPCEPTIONS
$9,000 or best offer 9,000 is the lowest im going! I have 2,000 dollars of work being done to this car alone this week! I should charge 10k

Okay.. Here comes the Defender!

"thats an ebay intake." Reply: Yes It's a Ebay intake but i taped HKS and the Vin Number on the metal so it would match the carb sticker. Soo you can get a name brand then get a fixit ticket for it.

Reply: Ya i figured after owning several ricers i can predict the power. It's not often you drive a well taken care of car so it hasn't lost much power.

"wow you're on crack" Reply: Wow your jealous

"thats a lot of money" Reply: Eh i have like 16k now in the car. paying proffessionals to make adjustments cost alot of cash.

I love critisim, it just bumps my post to the top so people who dont troll all day and have money can actually buy a nice car. Thanks Keep it coming!

" post this on ebay (just like the exhaust and intake) "

Just what I expected from a guy who posts a picture of his wife/GF holding hands. Apparently your wife is going to fund your relationship, obviously your to ignorant to read that the exhaust is custom made. “fast and the Furious car"? You must have a truck to haul your ignorance around..You’re on a website full of fast and the furious cars maybe you can look at the advertisement on this website. "Post this on Ebay" are you saying Ebay sucks? You truly are a fool. Nice hair lol....homo

Alright, this is one of the cleanest coupes I have ever seen.

I can see how you have $9k invested, but I think you should probably hope for a solid $6k at the top of the market. New paint, and good footwork will put you close to 4, all of the other stuff is kind of just a "please buy me" type of thing that nobody really pays attention to...refurbished interior, intakes, etc. It's kind of a giveme on these cars.

Definitely a beautiful car, but I don't think you'll be able to get any more than 5 or 6 out of the car at the top of the market no matter how perfect it is.

Shouldn't have lied about the intake man, see what the mods think about that. Also this whole thing is ridiculous, the suspension is nowhere near done like you claim it is. I take it that -4 degrees of camber is only in the front?(since you don't have adjustable RUCA's)

Also, what is this "Kit worth over 2500 Dollars!!" and pics of the subframe reinforcement?

What in the exhaust system is flowmaster?

Maybe if you get rid of that Tapout crap you could get more for the car.

How many times do i have to write “custom Exhaust " for you to get it right?
"Im the homo but you looking at my pic and my hair wow...whos the homo now" What? That makes on sense your posting a pic of that because you want attention of other males..homo. God Speed Sway bars for the s13..Those are one of the biggest sway bars you can get for a S13 obviously only name brands interest you, who makes the gel for your hair? Macy's?..lol.. "Pleather Seat" you really can't read can you? It's a Tweed fabric most Kirkey seats are like that and it's a seat cover, Kirkey seats are normally made of metal. Why do people hate Tapout? lol I'm trying to sell a car your ruining this post go gel your hair... go away.

mk, a cold air intake from Ebay, stamped with HKS in big letters so when it gets smogged/inspected by cops etc a carb sticker is there, I’ve already stated that it is a EBAY intake. There is no difference between HKS intake and Ebay they both serve the same purpose when it says " dyno proven " it's dyno proven because it is a upgrade from stock. I would like to see Dyno Proven from a Ebay intake most likely no difference. -4 Degree camber is correct, that's what works told me it looks the same as the front I obviously didn't sit there to make sure but I doubt they would lie about it. I am planning on putting on some Ruka’s though. To get a nice subframe reinforcement kit & labor cost around 2500 to get a FULL kit and labor done to it. I will get it back soon and rack it to show how built it is, nonsense how many people have doubts when they haven't even seen the car in person. Out of 600 views how many people actually wanted to buy a S13 almost 3/4 of views were people searching for something to argue about. Give it a rest PM me if you want to fight about something don’t ruin my post because your hating. Some people actually have legit questions that's cool comment on it once then PM me the second time.

a bit overpriced. ive seen swapped kouki's with wheels, paint, etc for 10k. clean car. but good luck gettin 9k. my buddy is selling a full-race ka-t s14 for 10.5k. sounds crazy to pick up a stock ka for 9.

09-24-2009, 08:53 PM
whats so rare and special about this car is what i would like to know that you think its worth 9K? lets be realistic here,all those parts you put into it are cheap. you might as well part the parts off and sell a stock coupe for a reasonable price. you cant ever get the money you've put into a 10+ year old car back.. nonetheless its a clean car.

Are you talking about the Gold KA-T? in his post he says it doesn't come with the turbo. No interior and missing some parts to make it run. prob 3k worth of stuff you have to put in it to make suitable to drive again.


Rare because not a lot of 240's have new bushings and reinforced subframe. Rare because of 55k original miles. Rare paint and interior. Plus second owner. Rare because it hasn't been trashed and pushed to the edge. Rare because the parts are new not pulled off a totaled car. Rare because a guy with a drill gun and some zip ties didn’t put it together.

There is no difference between HKS intake and Ebay they both serve the same purpose

OK

:bs:

By your logic...

There's no difference in "variant" nardi NOB steering wheels from the actual thing, since they serve the same purpose.

There's no difference between a real Tanabe catback, and some egay brand, since they serve the same purpose.

You need to take a step back, take a deep breath, and read what's going on in this thread.

If you put the rest of what i wrote it..Like the part where the HP difference is most likely nothing it would make a whole lot more sense. I see what you’re getting at when you say "There's no difference between a real Tanabe catback, and some egay brand, since they serve the same purpose." A cold air intake is a cold air intake, if there was a difference in metal how could it help? Keeping in mind the metal isn’t complete crap. I haven't heard of any ebay intake melting.

Anyways I’m pretty much finished defending my posts...For all the people who actually want a S13 and are interested in mine I offer to put the car on the rack to show you the upgrades in person until I get some pictures. I'll show every upgrade that I’ve listed. For everyone else keep the hating up if I keep on the top of the post board maybe with someone who has money and is looking for a car can view mine. I have nothing to hide that's why I am open to anyone who wants to take a look in person.

I AM jealous, I'll admit its very improbable that anyone will find another s13 like this for sale but 9k is not realistic, its blue book value is 3,630 with all the bells and whistles and premium wheels but NOTHING justifies this car being 9k

actually there is A LOT of difference between an hks intake and an egay one, for starters an egay intake won't have a velocity stack on the maf adapter, which is the main reason why name brand intakes make more power than the rest, the material which is used is different, and the couplings wont rot in a few months because of the heat, a name brand has triple nylon layered couplings with better rubber that will last.

Bro, some energy bushings are what, $200? Subframe? Like $100 if you pay someone to weld it. Or toss a s14/s15 subframe up in there.
Not trashed/pushed to the limit. Uhh, I can find stock cars like that being sold by the average joe all day. And even if they were, with the money I'd be saving compared to yours, it would be a million times better.

Your car is worth 4k at MOST. In case you didn't know, you're driving a fucking 16 year old secretary car. Get over yourself.

09-24-2009, 10:28 PM
Unlike everyone else in this thread, I'm not gonna bash.

But the reason people are saying you're asking too much for the car is:

1. You're asking too much for the modifications done to the vehicle.

2. It doesn't matter if you paid someone xxxx amounts of dollars to INSTALL whatever parts you have on it. No one cares about the time and hours, they care about what is physically on the car. You're not a dealership and no one is going to pay you for the Nissan factory's time, nor will they pay you for yours, or whomever you paid to do the work to the car.

"Custom exhausts" for the most part are done, because they're CHEAP, and you can get it done up to your "custom" specs. It doesn't add much value to the car. It's some welding and metal.

3. You're selling a car. Not the parts. No one is going to pay a gratuitous amount of money on top of what the car is really worth in the eyes of not only the average, but enthusiast 240sx owner.

4. The bushings? Anyone can change the bushings on a car, and its around a $300 dollar job. Hell you can change the bushings yourself. If the car has such low mileage you don't even need to replace ALL the bushings unless you're really anal. I bought a car with all the bushings replaced, new weather stripping, professionally installed Kouki tails and a bunch of other professionally installed doo dads for cheap, because the owner knew he was selling a CAR, not the work.

No one cares about the labor, they just care that the car runs right, and like you said, "Hasn't been put together by a guy with a drill and zipties."

The car is I'll admit like others have VERY clean, and a good example of what a stock bodied car should look like.

But you, along with everyone else on this forum know that a USED 16 year old car will NOT hold it's value, nor will it sell for close to it's retail price 16 years later.

The car's KBB value is $3,300 in EXCELLENT condition, keep in mind that 3% or less of cars sold by private owners are sold in this condition. But I'll give you that since your car does appear to be meticulously maintained. But the parts you have on the car do NOT amount to $6,000 even if you were to total them up.

Having the car aligned is something you SHOULD have done, not something that is unexpected, although the corner balancing is definitely something that is admirable it's not extra ordinary.

Maybe you should consider eBay or Dupont Registry.

Are you talking about the Gold KA-T? in his post he says it doesn't come with the turbo. No interior and missing some parts to make it run. prob 3k worth of stuff you have to put in it to make suitable to drive again.


Rare because not a lot of 240's have new bushings and reinforced subframe. Rare because of 55k original miles. Rare paint and interior. Plus second owner. Rare because it hasn't been trashed and pushed to the edge. Rare because the parts are new not pulled off a totaled car. Rare because a guy with a drill gun and some zip ties didn’t put it together.


haha nope. its not posted on here. its a fully built ka-t twin scroll full race gt3076r. entire body been repainted oem pearl white. its has full interior, a/c, evo seats, etc. his motor setup is worth more than your car, so iono what your talking about. his manifold is prolly worth more than your motor... :rl:

Cool. I guess i will hit the track with this car. I love how everyone hates it, and there are 50 posts. From people who have 9000 post too... how does this car get so much attention for a “stock POS “in one night over 30 post amazing. Only 3 offers and 50 flamers on Zilvia, there are alot of trash talkers on it, where are the buyers? I'll see some of you on the track, I don't know what you look like or drive but I’m sure you'll notice me; I want to see half the people talk trash in front of me. Let’s keep the comments and post going maybe with all the negative publicity ill find a buyer willing to take a look at the car instead of judging it from what trolls assume and have no proof of :) Btw how come there are so many people basing the cars value on KBB? I don’t see KBB value for shells...or LS1 240’s when you put it down as excellent A+ car what is it actually scaling? There is a KBB value for 240’s with no motor? Is there a KBB value for LS1 240? There isn’t, if I had a LS1 people would just give me the same KBB value because you CANNOT factor in a new motor or Suspension or any performance upgrades. Kelly Blue book for my car is 3300+? The Kelly for that brown car must be 2k or less but people think it's a better deal than mine when their basing mine on Kelly Blue Book how is this making sense? The brown 1990 S13 with probably 100k+ miles vs. my 93 with 55k and clean title, mine is WORTH MORE. Why are you comparing Kelly Blue Book Value on my car and saying the brown one is a better deal? When you know the blue book value is going to be lower for the brown car. The brown one has no Mileage on it and doesn’t specifically say if it's a clean title so you have to assume again…guess... If were basing the car on blue book value, mine is a better deal…Half of you people contradict one another blue book vs. street value, hell if I bought a sr20 car from someone I could sue them the next day because of the illegal engine and I get to keep the car and they have to pay me the complete price to get it smogged legally.

“3. You're selling a car. Not the parts. No one is going to pay a gratuitous amount of money on top of what the car is really worth in the eyes of not only the average, but enthusiast 240sx owner.”
Contradicting yourself… If you think this is how a car should sell then this means by your logic, mine is a better deal.
“You're asking too much for the modifications done to the vehicle.” Why is this sentence even in your post when you wrote “Your selling the car. Not the Parts”
“The car is I'll admit like others have VERY clean, and a good example of what a stock bodied car should look like.” Ya well according to you KBB is based off the stock car, “not the parts”
“Maybe you should consider eBay or Dupont Registry.” Why should i? You already gave me the KBB value, again according to you that's the cars worth.
“The bushings? Anyone can change the bushings on a car, and its around a $300 dollar job” I have another cars…can you replace all the bushings for me ill pay you 300 dollars or around that, honestly? Where the fuck can you get a 7 hour job done to your car for around 300 dollars? It takes 7 hours to replace all the bushings maybe 5 if you’ve done it hella hella times.
“Unlike everyone else in this thread, I'm not gonna bash.” Cool thanks, but your theme of KBB value NOT THE PARTS was a complete contradictory post almost every other word of it contradicted the other. Soo…ya… uh im pretty much over this thread, wish that flamers would just shoo so I can find a buyer. Even if they were gonna get “ripped off” which they aren’t is it necessary to make 50 post about something that won’t affect you?

I need to learn how to take criticism, why is there any criticism? It's my car NOT YOURS AND NOT ANYONE ELSES and if it appeals to someone’s taste they will consider taking interest in it. You have NO interest in my car, your interest lie on strengthening the criticism and using it to increase your rep. Here is some criticism for you, learn to spell “critism” it would take you a year to make enough money working at McDonalds to even pay for my car, starving yourself.

He's built 3 cars that are all more awesome than your mostly STOCK car you're peddling on here.

He's more dedicated to the idea of using the car up to its potential than you'll ever be.

I'm happy you're trying to get rid of it, so I don't ever have to see you at any event.

You do have a shitty attitude and are refuting people on a forum where we build/buy/look/compare all sorts of parts and cars all day.

When I was talking about "parts" I was talking about the bullshit ass labor rates you have tacked on to your asking price as well.

Your coilovers, USED $1000, the shitty ass ebay sway bar, I mean Godspeed is worth like $60 at most because it's a garbage ass knock off part.

If you really want us to go through your "mods" list we will, but a lot of the stuff you bought is in bad taste (i.e. limited edition tap out back seat) and for the most part are cheap.

You're trying to lie to us and tell us what your car should and will be worth, when it isn't.

I would wish you good luck, but I'd be lying.

I hope you take a loss and learn about investing.

If you're gonna dump 16k in parts and labor into a car at least make sure its fast and can show it.

For all the money you say you have in the car, you could have a dope Supra, or a cool BMW.

I might be younger than you, I might get paid less than you, and sure I might not have as much net worth as you.

But I'm smart enough to know where to put my money in a car, and when to sell it, instead of asking a stupid price and take a huge loss.

I tried to be nice, but you're not even listening to logic. You should go peddle your car elsewhere. I suggested Dupont registry, because that's the only place where people might want to pay a hefty amount for such a rare automobile.

QQ.

duke quit getting so fucking butthurt, sheesh. for the last time, no one cares about how your 240sx is worth 9k. theres nothing you say that will stop the "haters" or "flamers" from talking about your car. what you've posted is set in internet stone or some shit until a mod/admin deletes it.

besides, these "haters" are just telling you some of the other shit thats been set in internet stone. cars that have been sold for 9k that had a variety of mods done and with different parts than you. most of the time, its parts that probably costed more than your parts. alot more.

geeze just take a look at some of the other cars sold and compare it to your asking price, your parts, and your "labor".

He's built 3 cars, fact i dont care. " more awsome " my car is awsome, cool. I never said i was dedicated to using the car to its full potential. I hope you do see me at a event, and i hope you approach me. What attitude would you have if people called you a liar with no proof other than junkies assuming. I haven't lied about anything intentually. I'm telling what i want for my car, your telling me what it is worth, im using your logics KKB and TELLING you what you what I think YOU think its worth and you think im forcing that price. I don't need luck, i need a buyer. I'm already taking a loss at 9k, you cant invest in cars.5% chance it COULD be a investment. 16k in my car, it's a beast but you wouldn't know. KA doesn't mean it sucks, if you cant drift it, you suck. All the money i have in the car is spare. I have a better car than a supra or a BMW. Infact one of them is a 9 person Limo.

Thanks to to the people who respect what I had done to the car. Some of the people who talk shit might be the people i pay to get work done if i pay you be happy. It's great that most of you are creative with cars i simply don't have time to build or learn. Your specialty might be building mine is inventing.

hell if I bought a sr20 car from someone I could sue them the next day because of the illegal engine and I get to keep the car and they have to pay me the complete price to get it smogged legally.

LOL not quite. If the seller discloses that the car has an illegal motor and you still consent to buying the car you can't sue them.

09-25-2009, 01:18 AM
No. That's wrong you don't know your law at all. It STATES DMV, that the seller MUST be able to SMOG the CAR WHEN SOLD. How DO YOU smog the car with an ILLEGAL Engine? Yes you CAN sue them EVEN if they TOLD you that it has an illegal Engine because you can't SELL an illegal engine for road use that's why it's called an ILLEGAL Engine! If what you say is true about the seller telling the buyer that it is illegal and CANT be smogged and everything will be okay which it's NOT, the SELLER must prove that the BUYER knows and has written documentation which is SIGNED by the BUYER and SELLER. This cannot happen. It would hold NO standard in the court system, unless that buyer bought it for TRACK use ONLY and is in the contract. If there is NO contract and the buyer says “well I told him so..." prepared to lose your ass. You can sue him twice once for repair of the vehicle and then you can sue them for knowingly selling you a defective car.

Okay, I'd normally side with the seller because there is an obvious amount of thread shitting in here, but at the same time, you've lied about several parts on the car and can't allow this to continue any longer.

Yes, your car does have low mileage, but the majority of the things you've had done to the car are completely useless.

I have TWO low mileage S13's(one with 40k original miles, another with 60k). One has over $20,000 in PARTS ALONE. Zero labor because I do everything myself. If I would even consider selling it, I KNOW for a fact that I wouldn't get anything near that...and I'm not even done with the car yet.

That intake, yeah, not HKS. Ebay.

Those wheels, yeah, not RPF01's, they're crappy knock offs.

I won't go into any more details because Falkon240 and Zar have pretty much covered everything.

Unless you change your attitude and fix your parts list with the REAL parts on there(no labor), I won't allow this to continue.
