Paid $7,150 for the car in 2003, invested $34,000 in parts alone, and am asking $19,000. I am not interested in negotiating price or trades at this point. Need cash for home repairs.

Free bump!
Darius

Thanks for the compliments! I'm not in a hurry to sell it, but if the right offer comes along, I'll let 'er go. Until then, I will probably do some odds and ends projects this winter.
I was going to snag up a Lotus but the timing isn't right.

How you like the t04z? Spooling wise. I have one with same turbine housing and still trying to decide if use it or not on my rb26.u have dyno sheet?

It spools pretty well, but there are newer BW EFR turbos that would spool much earlier. Here's the latest dyno sheet in need of some minor PID adjustment to the boost control:

I still really like the power band tho
275 hp/ 320tq by 4300 rpms.I def will give it a try.
Darius
09-06-2013, 01:29 PM
It made 738 WHP when the wastegate line split and the boost spiked to like 34 psi. It still didn't lean out or knock on a retarded timing map area, so I know this setup has more left in it.

Bump for price drop to $22,500.

Bump for a nice car. Back when I had an RB, Darius was one of the few knowledgable people when it came to this swap.
I wouldn't hesitate to own anything he has built.
Darius
09-12-2013, 03:28 PM
Thanks man! This has been a fun yet torturous build, and I'm glad I could help some other guys out along the way.
Darius

Bump. Still for sale with new pictures posted.

How would that turbo be for around 400-450hp with 660 injectors I'm thinking about this turbo for my setup but not too sure
Sweet ride.! Bump

Interested in my 350z? new motor running wesico 11:1 pistons and eagle rods. Motor only has 1300 miles and car holds clean title .
Bump for legit car. Saw you at SCS a couple times over the summer. Looks and sounds great. Here's a video of it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2470e3TENwQ&list=UUGGFHfOh4ARxAk8Wz3FF2og

Beautiful car. Please post some interior pics.
I can get some new interior pics but there really isn't much to see. It is stock leather interior with some wear on the outer seat bolsters. I have been debating on whether to reupholster the stock seats or go to the effort of installing new seats with a lower height since I'm 6'1". It is in excellent condition though. No cracks or stained carpeting, etc.
How would that turbo be for around 400-450hp with 660 injectors I'm thinking about this turbo for my setup but not too sure
Sweet ride.! Bump.
This particular turbo would be much too large for 400-450hp unless you got one with a smaller exhaust housing. Mine is a 0.84 which is sized for about 700 whp so your setup would be better off with a big 3076 or 35R-sized turbo for maximum response/quicker spooling.

No thanks. I am looking to fund a garage to start a new project.

HAHA thanks for posting that! I was totally annoyed by the Porsche that got in the way...I can't wait for this year's SCS's to begin. I need an excuse to get the car out of the garage!

Thanks for the compliments. Still for sale. $1,000 worth of new tires on it now. They haven't even touched the ground yet!
Looks like a fun car! GLWS
Darius

Bump for price drop to $20,000 with $1,000 in new tires, $250 new front sway bar, and $125 new starter.

Beautiful car. Is it also on Autotrader?
Darius
09-18-2014, 01:12 PM
Nope, I have only tried Zilvia, 6speedonline, and CL. Do you think autotrader would be hitting my target audience?
voiddweller
09-18-2014, 01:15 PM
Yes, at this price point I would seriously consider it. Also post on NICO and 6MT forums.
Darius
09-18-2014, 01:38 PM
Good call. I just posted it to NICO and I'll give autotrader a shot next.

Hey Darius... Gorgeous Car!!!.. I have cash in hand (just sold my last toy, a pristine, numbers matching, 1969 Firebird, yesterday), not making a low ball offer. But, if you are serious about selling it, Give me a shout.. I'd like to talk some numbers.
Im really leaning heavily on going with a new S-Chassis car... last time I had a very nice S13, this time, it would have to be an S14...
Does it have a clean title?
any rust?
AC hooked up?
Did you retain the power steering?
Any interior photos?
My phone number is 540-921-7355... shoot me a text. Im very interested.. Like I said, Cash in hand.. not a tire kicker

This is simply a perfect example of a 100% professionally built S14. I can only dream of owning one this nice in the future. I wouldn't take any less than 20k for it either.
Darius
09-23-2014, 10:58 AM
Thanks! Just think, it is only $30/WHP!! I would pay only slightly less per HP in my 2000 Honda civic with 140k miles and rust!

Yeah dude your car is a show stopper! But I need cash to fix my $hit-hole house. Unless your car can do sewer drain work, frame walls, and hang drywall?? :D

Beautiful build. Would you consider trade for my 2015 Wrx and some cash on your end?
Lmk!
Darius
09-24-2014, 06:55 AM
Yeah dude, but instead, how about you sell it and bring me the cash and keep anything you get over $20k? :)
