For some reason, my rear wiper isn't working...it'll click when I press it but that's it..it doesn't move. I can't see out the rear window during rain or snow. Any idea what it would be guys?

Actually thats all haha. This is my second 240sx hatch...but this one is in almost mint condition. I bought it from an old guy and the car was in storage from 2004 to 2012. I got it for a steal as well! Wanna see some pics?

thats pretty clean bro mine looks exactly like yours except its black and has kouki tails... the area you live in is notorious for rusting cars man.. check everywhere for that shit.....

More than notorious haha, my white one has frame rail replacements because of the rust. Unfortunately this car has it as well so Im going to have to weld frame rail replacements for this too. A bit of surface rust on my strut tower too but im in college and have no time to fix it. Hopefully in the summer I'll get all that done. Ah man I'd kill for some kouki's

I really dont have the money for that lol. Maybe after my build/swap. Do you have an Sr20?

i had one in my old 90 coupe.. that thing was awesome!!! once you go turbo NA feels like shit unless its a well built engine.. or a hatchiroku because regardless of the power in an 86 i still feel like tsuchiya. xD

6K???? dude thats how much it costs over there?? manny at teamclockwork over in my area does redtop swaps for like 3300.... all youd need is a new fuel pump because sr20s eat through the oem oens like the cookie monster demolishes cookies... lol

I prefer to buy SR's that have already been stateside. Ive had a bunch of SR's show up off the boat recently that either looked like shit, or had low compression in a cylinder. I bought my SR off a buddy that was going 1jz. I got to ride in the car before I forked over any money. Granted, thats not typical- but SR's are getting to the age now where Id rather get one that I know has been rebuilt. I paid $1600 for my swap. Engine, trans, ecu, harness, s15 turbo, downpipe, stock rad (didnt use), and it had 500 miles on a exedy stage 2 clutch.

If you do buy from an importer, be sure to haggle. Their prices havent dropped much since 2006, and it is not the same economy as it was then. A lot of importers are sitting on stock, and as a result will come down on the price to make a sale.

i go tmine from an importer for 1500 and the motor was inspected by me and manny before the engine was even allowed to enter my hands.... any motor with age will need a rebuild thats for sure but as long as you keep it calm before the rebuild youre all good.... my block never gave out on me.. xD i went through more t25 turbos than anything else 3 to be exact....


and ahh i feel ya! id kill for a hatchi!
