Ok this is mostly a feeler thread. I dont want to sell my baby but Im trying to get myself into an STi.
The car is a 1990 240sx hatch with sunroof. It is cherry red pearl in color.
Some history on the car. I am the SECOND owner of this car, I bought it in March of this year. I bought it from an older man who always babied this car. It was bought in Penn and then driven to Florida and was there most of its life. It was brought up to New York in January of this year. It was originally an auto, I did a 5 speed swap in June. I have service records from over 12 years ago for this car. This car has given me ZERO problems the whole time I have owned it. I always took care of it, it has never been raced or tracked in its life. The only aftermarket thing on this car is an ebay special exhaust, when I bought the car I didnt have much extra money and the stock exhaust was rusted to all hell and I couldnt stand it so I bought this.
THE ONLY SPOT OF RUST I HAVE EVER FOUND ON THE CAR IS ON THE FRONT DRIVERS FENDER, NOT BIGGER THEN A QUARTER.
When I bought the car I bought a few maintence items like a new battery, air filter and spark plugs (NGK ZFR5D). I also did a compression test when I bought the car and it came back with:
Cylinder 1: 165
Cylinder 2: 165
Cylinder 3: 160
Cylinder 4: 155
The bad:
The odometer on the car is broken at 112,588. The previous owner said it broke on him as soon as he got back to NY when he drove it up early this year. As soon as he got it to NY he put it in his garage and took the insurance off it and drove it once or twice a week around the block. I havent put more then 3000 miles on this car since I owned it, I have a truck that I daily drive most of the time.
The only "accident" (if you can call it that) was when the previous owner had the car. Someone backed into the front drivers fender in a parking lot and theirs a small dent.
The stock wing is no longer on the hatch and has left holes in the hatch. The holes are covered and it hasnt really bothered me that much (zero water gets in). But I do have another MINT hatch that will go with the car, the other hatch is sprayed black right now.
Theirs a hole in the side of the drivers seat. Again never bothered me, small hole from getting in and out.
The ebay special exhaust hangers rattle against something, does not affect performance its just annoying as hell, can be fixed easy though I just never got around to it.
Stock steering wheel is worn, again never bothered me.
Antenna is stuck up, raido still works fine.
Think about it, this car has been driven by an older man, as an automatic for just about its whole life. I converted it to 5 speed and babied it. One of the most unmolested 240's left.
Clean title in hand.
I have tried to be 100% honest about this car and I cant think of anything else about the car, if I do I will add it. Please ask any questions if you have them. Let me know if I left something out.
You can reach me by PM here, or by email. [email protected]
By the way, all of these pictures are from mostly when I bought it. The car now has an exhaust and the stickers and badges on the rear have been shaved, otherwise the car looks exactly the same. (The interior obviously now has a shift knob which is red stitch OEM from a 300zx, the shift boot is also red stitch.)
