First things first, Keep your negative comments to yourself!

Car is built for boost, but never had the chance to finish piecing a turbo kit. so this built motor NEVER seen boost. runs great and starts on every crank.

This car have a CLEAN TITLE! I recently got it smog a few months. I have this car for about 4 years going on 5 and it is time to let it go. I just recently did my 5 lug conversion (almost 2 months ago), Nissan Quest remanufactured alternator upgrade, remanufactured starter when i did the alternator, and brand new parts master battery at star auto parts (2 year free replacement and 8 years pro rated. Alternator, starter, & battery was installed together no longer than 1 month ago. Alignment was done 4 months ago (1 year warranty). Hood have spacers so don't ask me why is the hood pop like corvettes lol! Wires need to be tucked in the engine bay (I have wire looms and relay socket to make it disappear)

This car is my Daily Driver and has never been drifted or been to the tracks! This car is not a chick magnet but as soon as you pop the hood you'll get great attention. the intention was to get cops off my ass.

HISTORY:

Engine build started in mid-late 2008 after I blew a piston ring due to a E-Mance ECU Tune and boosting t25 set-up. I took my sweet time doing research and getting all the parts together which made the build finish in late 2009-early 2010. My builder have over 20 years of experience and have built several KA24DE before. I have never track this car before. before i started the car i purchased an Enthalpy tune from Scott, Timing is retarded for turbo application so the car feels laggy at certain rpm. if you want you can advance timing by 5degrees as suggested by Scott from R.S.enthalpy while in N/A mode. the Air fuel ratio is perfect at 14.7- low 15's under normal driving as it sits.

No test drives unless you are a serious buyer and have cash in hands.

I have put too much money in this car for it to get messed up from someone who just wanna test drive peoples car. All the people who have put lots of money into their car will understand me.:coolugh:

Pros:

*Car have a blow by system. PCV set-up PCV set-up : KA24ET / KA24DET Forum (http://forums.nicoclub.com/pcv-set-up-t366874.html)
*Car runs perfect and will not over heat in the summer. The Taurus fan cools down crazy quick!
*I do oil change ever 3,000 with Mobil 1 Synthetic 15w20 ONLY. I only use *Redline MT-90 in my transmission only.
*Car have A/C and Power steering **********My daily driver*
*Car is ready for turbo and reflash on ECU depending on which route you take.
*Transmission shifts very well with no grinds at all.
*Coilovers does not leak at all
*straight chassis since it was never tracked

Cons:

*Car needs body work such as, fenders, front bumper, and paint. I will include a very well condition pop up hood, front bumper, pass and driver side fenders with fenders extensions (all the parts need is sanding and paint).
*Original paint is finally starting to fade.
*Shift knob is loose and doesn't hold very well but it will not come off if you try to pull it.
*Rack and Pinion have a tiny leak from a seal but doesn't leak enough where you have to always add fluid everyday (maybe once every 3 or 4 months).
*Sometimes you will hear a thump noise in the rear when you go over a big dip. This only happens from time to time and NOT EVERYTIME. i was told its probably bad subframe bushings
*Just like most 240sx, I have a crack dash
*No spare tire. I couldn't find a z32 5 lug spare tire.

The reason for letting it go is because I constantly work and have no time to finish my project. (All I have left is body work and turbo to end up in the tuner magazines)

I will do a straight trade or plus cash on your end but only for a CLEAN TITLE Lexus IS300 automatic with white exterior/black interior, blue exterior/black interior, charcoal metallic exterior/black interior or black exterior/black interior. Car must have less than 140,000 miles and run good. Also the car must be completely stock with no mods at all. Exterior must be in good condition as well as the interior. I have seen IS300 sold for under $7,000 in good condition and i know someone has one.
