It is a 1990 with 160K miles. I just got the car water locked today. I removed the spark plugs and got all the water out. I then replaced spark plugs, cranked her up and she has a heavy knock in the 2nd cylinder. The transmission has a constant whine and should also be replaced with the engine. The front end of the car has some damage to the fenders and bumper, therefor is a perfect candidate for a silvia conversion. The trunk has the usual rust damage from the spoiler. Minor dings on the sides with a softball sized ding on the rear 1/4 panel.
To sum it all up this is what needs to be replaced to make the car very attractive...
Silvia front end conversion
sr20det engine/transmission, or ka24e/de engine/transmission
trunk lid
The interior is almost perfect! The only blemish is a small hole on the driver's side carpeting (this was caused by the right foot using the gas pedal without floor mats). Interior plastic is perfect along with the back seats. All four wheels have new tires, and new rotors/pads with about 5K miles on them (stock rotors, Stillen Metal Matrix pads). Suspension is still very sporty, and she drives a straight line without using your hands on the steering wheel. It has a front strut tower bar, and two new belts for the engine that haven't been installed. I did install the front belt 600 miles ago but the others were too time concumming and haven't installed them yet. I just bought new ngk plugs and ignition wires (cost $30). I will try my hardest to get pictures of her tomorrow.
Seeing as how she still runs and possibly has another year of life left I am asking $1000. I woulnd't mind if you want it shipped if you are out of state, but you must arrange EVERYTHING, because i am very busy.
Let me know who is interested!
