Well, most of you know what it looks like, and probably seen it in person. I drive a 1996 240sx which I have owned for about 2 years. I bought it at exactly 75k mi and now it has a little over 112k. The car has a clean title and I've maintained it religiously.

It has the following things done to it:
ENGINE:
HKS Dual Drager Exhaust
NGK Ignition Wires
Bosch Platinum 2 Plugs just installed
Twin nissan electric fans.
SUSPENSION:
Nismo Front Strut Tower Bar (this might be taken off)
Nismo Rear Strut Tower Bar
CDB Fabrications Front Ladder Bar
H&R Sport Springs + Tokico HP Shocks
BRAKES:
300ZX Iron front Calipers Powdercoated Gunmetal
Projectsilvia stainless steel brake lines
Nismo Stainless Steel Clutch Line
WHEELS:
New 2003 Nissan 350z 18" wheels (standard, not track model)
18x8 +30 offset all around
Bridgestone RE040 Tires. (225/45/18 in the front, 245/24/18 in the rear).
INTERIOR:
B & M Short Shifter
1997 Nissan 240sx base model seats (Front and Rear) and door panels. Also have a set of 95 SE rear seats and door panels.
Japanese/Euro Spec Steering wheel (no more cruise control)
Cruise control can be put back, all you need is the steering wheel swtich.
EXTERIOR yes the most famous part about this car:
97-98 S14 front end including..
Kouki S14 Hood & Fenders
Kouki S14 JDM OEM bumper
Kouki S14 JDM Silvia Headlamps
Kouki S14 Turn Signals
Kouki S14 Silvia Grill
Kouki S14 JDM Trunklid with genuine Kouki S14 wing
Kouki S14 Tailights
Electronics:
Clifford Concept 100 Alarm
Not sure what head unit will be in there, I'm taking my current one out.
Precision Power PPI 4240 4ch amplifier
Blaupunkt Rear speakers (front's are factory).
Known Problems:
the tach needles bounces from 3k-4krpm sometimes, but other wise fine.
Yes the car has got its share of dings, but I can get that taken out at buyer's expense.
there is small dent on LR quarter panel and rear bumper.
Cruise control switch is missing due to the steering wheel (japanese s14's never had cruise control). the unit is still there, and it still works, just need the steering wheel controls.
Passenger side turn signal is cracked (thank you thieves!.. I think).
- a new one is being ordered.
Hood and Trunk/spoiler are blue. it came from the factory like that, so i never painted it. The paint was still perfect. I can trade for a c/f hood + black trunklid/stock 240 spoiler if the buyer wishes to do so.
Life has changed rather drastically over these few weeks. my grandparents sold the house we live in right now and plan to move back to their home country. This was all on really short notice. sometimes it takes things like this for me to realize how dependent I am on them.
My bills to maintain and keep this car are expensive, (insurance.. maintenance etc etc..) and my job is unstable. even though my grandparents are providing some support, it doesnt seem to be enough to make me want to keep this car. I feel it pointless to pay twice as much in insurance bills as a guy 25 yrs old would have to on this car, and pay a bit mit more for any parts I replace or add to the car when compared to ohh, lets say and s13. I can say I'll get an S13 with an SR in it (I kind of rather have run than give my money to farmers insurance or the parts department at nissan). but still I'm not sure what to get. I'm not sure if I still want a 240sx.
If the price is not right. I'm not going to sell the car. If all goes well, car will be for sale early/ mid May.
lets get to the point. I'm asking $8700obo. If you're interested make an offer. Please dont lowball or say that my mods are worth nothing. If you dont want it, just dont buy it. (not trying to sound like an ass, but the mods did cost money). I will not be parting out the car, so please dont make any offer on parts. Thanks in advance.
