92 240sx SR20DET

[SRSiL80]

Hey all I am selling my 240sx because I am starting college in the fall. The car is a 1992 LE Fastback with an s13 redtop engine. Its basically stock except for a GReddy Trust FMIC and 3" downpipe with an Apexi N1 Exhaust. The car also has 180sx tails. 5spd MT, Black. The interior is pretty well shot but a friend is selling his interior for $300. I do not have the money right now to buy that but I can point you in his direction. Also I recommend replacing the gaskets on the exhaust manifold and turbo - downpipe spots. I did not do this when I first got it and its usually recommended. It's leaking exhaust there because of it. This is about a day of work and the gaskets cost less than 100. I realize this car is obviously not perfect so I am only asking $5000. I work full time and can not afford to take off work as I might lose my job because of it so I can not deliver it but we can arrange a time to meet in my area. Again this car needs some initial work but runs perfectly once the exhaust leak is taken care of. I ran 13.86 quarter when I first got it, with the leak its about 14.2ish constant. Serious inquiries only please. Click on the link below for pics etc of the car.

I pm'd you.

Has the car ever been accidented???

Is there any, any rust to either the undercarriage/chassis/body/etc??

Does the car have an LSD?

What type of wheels and tires are on the car, with how much tread left??

I noticed you have either an S-afc or AVC-r as well according to your pics, which one is it??

Please email me at [email protected]
Thanks
John

its an AVCR but that was already sold sorry;

the wheels are RO_JA 5.0s gunmetal 17in the tires are toyo Proxes FZ4s and have about 3000 miles on them. Can still see the paint a little bit. I clean the wheels every week and take them off and thoroughly clean them down at work once a month and rebalance and if needed rotate them. I also check the alignment once a month.

No LSD in that model.

Only rust is a dime size spot on above the drive door. It used to be rusted on the trunk lid where the stock spoiler was but i patched that up and smoothed it all out.

hey could ya tell me if theres any problems with the car...if so can you list them?

[romeo62186]

oh yea...and how many original miles is on the car?

[SRSiL80]

i've listed problems above;

it has 145k miles on the chassis

[SRSiL80]

here is the response and questions asked by Cth

There are about 145k miles on the car. I did not get a cluster with the engine but I was told it had roughly 33k miles on it. Yes it did come out of a clip but when I got it I only got the engine as they used the firewall and all that to convert someones car to RHD so I didnt get the whole clip. Only rust is about a dime size spot above the driver door. There was the typical rust from thes tock foam spoiler but I sanded it all off, welded a metal plate, and puttied over it and sanded it smooth. There are still 3 wholes that need to be redone as the puddy broke through where we used tape on the smaller holes. The interior will have to be replaced, when I got the car the previous owner had painted it like 4 different colors by the time I got it so we pressure washed it and it worked to an extent but scratched up alot of it. My friend is selling his full interior for $300 seats, all pieces etc. I believe I am the 3rd or 4th owner. The car has power everything no cruise though the guy who owned it before me took out the module for reasons beyond my comprehension. No a/c as we had to make room for the engine and it was too hard to work around all the piping. and the FMIC wouldnt fit quite right with the ac radiator. The tires are about 80+ % tread still on it I just got them last month and have about 3000 miles on them. They are Toyo Proxes FZ4 215/45ZR17s on 17in RO_JA 5.0s gunmetal. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Hi, there are a couple of things I'd want to know about the car to determine if I'd be interested or not. How many miles on the body? How many miles on the motor (i.e. did you see the gauge cluster that came with it, if one did)? Did the motor come out of a clip? Is there any rust on the car? What sort of work would it need on the interior? Maybe you can tell me more general information about the car (# of owners, options, condition of tires, etc.). Thanks.

too hard to deal with listing the things wrong and explaining it on ebay people would just back out which is a hassle

not a bad lookin car... just one question though... why do you call it a sil-eighty?

[WIshb0ne]

because thats another version of 180sx in japan

[EvilCerealBoX]

yeah i know what a sil-eighty is, front-half of a s-13 and rear-end of a 180

but see, the hatchback 240 in the US is basically the 180, and the coupe version of the 240 an ova-eighty (vice versa)


but see, his is only half a sil-eighty...

[WIshb0ne]

0h haha i didn't know he didn't have a silvia front :doh:

[EvilCerealBoX]

oh yeah, i forgot to mention that there are no interior pics on that cardomain site, SRSiL80

and if possible... would you be able to install the A/C ?

[SRSiL80]

sold

and I call myself a sileighty and if you want to get extremely technical it is a sileighty it has an engine that was in a silvia (granted it was in 180s also) and it has 180sx tails so therefore it can be considered a sileighty. You're not a cereal box yet your name is evilcerealbox so your name is as retarded as mine if you want to think that way.
