Up for sale is my 1989 Nissan 240sx. Im going to be very sad to see it go but right now my job is more important. There are still things that need to be done to get it running. Ive done 99% of the work.
I started building this car since september of 10'. I took it down to a bare chassis pretty much. Everything was removed and cleaned. The under body was POR'd along with the interior from the front seats back.
I will show pics from this whole build process. This project was very expensive. People that have done this swap and done it right will know that it cost allot more then people think.
Car: 1989 Nissan 240sx Hatch
Motor: 5.7 Ls1 out of camaro
Trans: T56 6 speed out of 00' TA with 60k. Clutch has 60k.
Title: I pulled some extra funds from the bank with the title to help out with the swap. I still owe 2k on the loan. Clean title not salvaged.
What the car needs: Ka koyo radiator and hoses. Windsheild replaced. Back glass intalled in the inverted hatch(i have the lexan window)
Front end put on(may do this before sale) It is getting repainted right now. Needs starter.
Alignment after running. Wiring harness needs to be installed(currently at Daft getting converted)
Fluids put in. Thats about it!
Reason i am selling: I was told a couple months ago that i was starting a different position at my work and that will leave me no time to work on the car and i was really hoping to finsh the car and have some fun in it before i started the new job and well, i start this week.
If it doesnt sell, i wont be mad. Ill just park it in the shop and slowly try and finish it over the winter.
Things done to the car:
Ls1 swap with t56.
All DAFT mounting kit and power steering lines. Sway bar spacers. Wilwood clutch master. New slave cylinder with earls lines and remote bleeder(clutch system already bled)
Flywheel was resurfaced.
ARP rod bolts.
Megan racing track coilovers with 6k miles. All Godspeed adjustable arms front and back. Energy suspension RED subframe collars.
90mm kakimoto catback with all new exhaust tubing from headers back.
180sx Front end and side skirts
Bn Style inverted hatch
The car was just recently painted. Could really use a wet sand and buff.
Front end was tubbed. Engine bad was stripped and cleaned before paint and looks great!
Rear seat delete.
Battery relocated to the trunk with battery box.
Still has stock s13 seats.
Complete 5 lug swap with brand new everything.
Extended wheel studs in all four corners
Brake lines off master are stainless braided made at Springfield Brake.
This is the basics of whats done with it. There are still a ton more but this is what i can think of off the top of my head.
The bad: I was planning on replacing if i kept the car but the drivers side frame rail has rust in one area. Xcessive sells the exact replacement part for around 200 i believe. Just needs to be welded in.(total cost: around 400 for part and labor)
Right now im not accepting any trades unless its something that really catches my eye.
Price:9500.00
