Time has come to let it go..
Gray color 240sx hatchback with KA24DE turbo (fastback). Does not run. Please read whole ad before responding.
Price is firm.
You will need at least two wheels that clear 300ZX front brakes and a tow truck/trailer to move it.
Was a daily driver/track car. I built the rest of the car with only high end/quality parts, saving the engine upgrades which I saved for last.
I put something like $10k of quality mechanical parts into the car (suspension, drivetrain, brakes) before touching the engine, so its got plenty of value under the skin..
Only reason I'm selling is cause my parents are fed up with me storing it at their house, hah.
Could be built up into a monster or be parts-donor stripped for another project.
Or even for the willing entrepreneur, you can just part out the whole car on forums/ebay for (at a minimum) $4800 (see used parts price breakdowns, prices taken from ebay/forum prices below), not including the rolling chassis.
I just don't have the time to do that anymore.
The car can hold 0.98G lateral sustained on crappy old 235/40R17 Bridgestone Potenza RE040 tires, with a peak of about 1.18G; it sticks to the pavement like glue.
Good compression on the engine, I took it the head off to put in a 2mm metal head gasket so I could eventually up the boost..
then life got in the way, so engine is sitting half reassembled.
Front right fender is light gray primer, rest of car is dark charcoal gray.
Has Sunroof, no leaks.
Power windows.
