1989 240sx XE 5spd 166,XXX miles $2500 OBO

Base model, non-sunroof coupe

Stripped down autocross/HPDE car

I am not interested in trades.

I've owned this car for almost 15 years but has only been stripped down for the last ~1500 miles. I bought it from the original owner. It is an Arizona car but has spent almost its entire life in Southern California. The car is now stripped and a 4 point roll-bar is welded in. It is street legal and passes smog without issue. The air conditioning has been removed as well as all the sound deadening, carpet, etc. It has no stereo. It is loud. I painted the car "bright white" at home in the garage. It has two known issues. The timing chain tensioner is weak, causing a cold start rattle. I replaced this once previously but it has showed up again. Also, if the car is dead cold it will crank for a couple of seconds before it fires. I have spent some time trying to track this down and have not solved it. Subsequent starts are normal. The car has been autocrossed ~half a dozen times and been to one track day in 6 years. I have three kids and have simply not used the car. I just don't have time for it. Registration is up to date, I just had it smogged and I have the title. I have a new project and this one needs to go.

Do you happen to have any of the interior left you took out? (carpet, etc.) I saw you had some panels.

Carpet is long gone. I believe I have the center console and the rear panels. None of the rear panels will fit with the rollbar. Rear seats and rear seat belts are also gone.
