Year: 1997
Make: Nissan
Title: Salvage title on hand
Mileage: 150,XXX on chasis and stock KA24DE
Price: $6,000 CASH ONLY NO TRADES price is obo so don’t throw a fit about it give me a reasonable offer and I’ll work with you on it. In need of cash for a down payment on a newer car so hopefully she’ll sell quickly.


Motor:
Stock KA24DE with about 150,XXX miles on it. Odometer stopped reading at 144,XXX. Motor still runs and pulls strong it’s been reliable since the first day I bought it. I’ve performed maintenance around June of last year replaced spark plugs, spark plug wires, cap n rotor, fuel filter, replaced valve cover gasket. Transmission shifts smoothly into all gears, but occasionally gets stuck shifting into 1st or reverse. I pump only 91 at chevron and oil changes are done every 2 and half months or so. Air filter is replaced whenever it’s too dirty. I replaced the clutch fan with electric fans for more room in the bay.
Cons:
-Needs new motor/trans mounts
-Rear hubs need to be replaced
-Subframe bushings are starting to go out and is starting to clunk
-Has an oil leak and power steering leak I had a mechanic look it over for me he says it seems to be coming from the oil pan and front crank seal. Power steering is leaking from one of the hoses. I have a write up of what needs to be done and a estimate he put together for me to give you an idea of what needs to be done. Despite this problems I drive this car everyday to work and school from long beach to Cerritos and towards LA on a daily basis and it has never given me any problems what so ever. I’ll have a picture of the write-up down below
-Antenna was shaved off before paint so radio reception isn’t so great
I might be forgetting some things, but once I remember them I’ll come back and edit the post.

Suspension & brakes:
The car is sitting on megan coilvers and has megan inner and outer tie rods. Also has megan rear camber kit. The front driver side coilover is starting to pop, i think the top hat is out. Brakes have slotted/drilled rotors from 88rotors and stock brakes that were replaced the same time I did maintenance a year ago.

Exterior: I had the car professionally painted Milano red and it stands out nicely. No blemishes what so ever. The roof of the car has dents from my previous carbon fiber hood flying up and denting it and cracking my windshield. The windshield recently got a knick from a flying rock on the freeway..
Bumper was replaced with a JDM Kouki front bumper and D max turn signals and D max corner lights.
Rims will be swapped out with some old 350z rims i have.

Interior:
Pretty much everything inside is stock, but I replaced the radio with a pioneer head unit with USB and aux. I say the interior is about 7 out of 10 due to some random holes from the previous owner. Power windows work great and both air bags work. The dash has cracks in it and the windows are tinted. All the lights on the cluster works fine, but it still doesn’t read speed and odometer is non-functional.

Security:
2 way alarm nothing special

Hopefully I listed everything I needed to, but if I’m missing anything I’ll add it in and if there’s any questions you guys can contact me. I prefer you guys text or call me I’ll put my number down. I’ve never drifted this car or taken it to a track. Used strictly for commuting everywhere and occasional spirited driving. This car has never failed me despite some problems, it’s always started up every single time and I’ve gotten from point A to B no problems. It’s a head turner everywhere I go for some reason and surprisingly gets more attention than I thought I would get. I love this car and I’ve put a lot of time and effort into her. I’d had to let her go, but I can’t afford keeping her right now with school and work going on. I can show the car whenever it’s convenient for me my time and my place. I’ve tried to be as straight forward as I can. No lowballers of any kind allowed and no trades at all. Strictly cash.

Thank you for your interest

562-822-5817 my name is steven if I don’t pick up leave a text with your name and number and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can.


Must have cash in hand to test drive*

This is far, far from a $6000 car. Salvage title, no kouki sideskirts, ebay tails, front end collision/faded paint, leaks, and a ton of other stuff... Go home cali, you're drunk.

You might be able to get $5500 for it with the coils, wheels, etc on a good day.

Maybe you should take it to a shop, fix all the issues and then try and sell it again with everything fixed. Think that'll be your best bet.

Im just over it right now. I dont want to spend anymore money then i have too. I have to find a front cataylic converter to pass inspection before i can even sell the car. Stupid state ref. Anyone know someone selling one locally?

You can't sell the car without it being inspected? Wtf?

xsteven562

I got pulled over for modified exhaust a few months ago and im missing the front cat which is why i cant pass inspection.

5k making a offer for a friend but I want those tail lights if u will take 5k let me know

xsteven562
04-14-2013, 08:11 PM
You can take it for 5k, but bring your own suspension and wheels. If your friend decides to buy the car talk to him about getting the tail lights. If he doesn't have wheels I have a set of wheels i can throw in for some extra $$$. Let me know! I need this sold by the end of next week.
