I agree with everyone, i love these cars in general even though they are nothing special in stock form. Still cool seeing an unmolested one these days. i regret selling this one

Here is mine that I picked up a few days ago. It is 100% stock except for an aftermarket radio and an HKS exhaust (stock exhaust was rusted according to previous owner). It will remain fairly stock for a few months with the exception of getting suspension, quick release and a USDM kouki lip. Only reason I'm getting a quick release is for safety.

the coolest thing about those pics, is that you decided to put your house number right in line with the lights and simply dropped the 6 into a 9.

LOL! man you have no idea how much that pisses me off. We live in a rented house and it has been that way since day one of us moving in. My OCD makes me want to just take it all down.

Has been on eBay for quite some time now. Don't think it's worth $9k+, but if I win the lottery I'm buying it. The cleanest I've ever seen in my life (besides the engine bay). And for whenever the link expires, here are some pics:

Too bad about the strut tower rust on the passenger side. Other than that its super clean.

I hate how the seller conveniently crops it out in this pic:

This thread is great! Sometimes I look at pictures of my car when I first got it. 100% stock and it looks damn plain. I'm all about original and OEM look, but 240 needs to be lowered a little bit with better wheels. OEM body kits are good addition too. I compare my car before and after and I like after way more than before. It's good to see there are people out there keeping 240 clean. Most people destroy them and it's sad to see.

bought the red and the gold one last year from the same dude. Sold the Gold one almost immediately after spending about $50 and fixing 2-3 little things. The red one I kept and modded a little, sold it for just under 5k when I bought my R32 GTST.


how it looked when it sold.

paid 3k for both cars, sold the gold one for 2.5k, sold the read for almost 5k, and used the money from the 3 cars worth of parts the seller had laying around to fund the mods on the red one. Now I'm on to bigger and better things....



it needed a paint job when I ordered it. Paid a little extra for it to be LP2. Ships this week and will be in Jacksonville in August. Rivsu imports took care of the car and the paint. will be keeping a close to OEM look on this one as well.

I'm selling mine (http://zilvia.net/f/showthread.php?t=568829), but never modified her. I know I'll miss her and the good times we had together (sniff). We went a lot of places together.

Here she is at Death Valley.

Clean car! I saw your F/S ad and was going to tell you to post some pics in here while you still had it. Great asking price btw, someone will get a very clean, unmolested S13 for a very reasonable price. GLWS

My daily. 93 vert. Bone stock as it gets. Interior came to me a bit beat up but I'm in the process of trying to "semi-restore" it. Asshole that owned it before me took a torch to coils, so it sits a little lower, but it still rides decent. I bought it with a blown h/g and warped head. Only thing not stock is the arp head studs.ImageUploadedByTapatalk1403241342.833056.jpg

So.... It's not staying stock at all. The statement a "quick release for safety" is a crock of shit. You have an air bag in your steering wheel, I'd say it's safer than a quick release hub staring at your sternum. If you want "safety" from someone stealing it, park it in the garage.

I said "safety", did I say it was MY safety? No. I live in Orlando, FL. There have been a lot of car thefts, especially of these cars. So the "safety" I was referring to was my cars safety. I can't park my car in the garage, too much shit in there. Nice contribution to the thread.

Old pic from beginning of the year. Bought the car 3 years ago from an old lady in bone stock condition. Installed 2 ways alarm, stereo and just got a BRM 2.5" exhaust. Will be refreshing suspension bushing and other worn out item. Plan is to keep it as close to bone stock as it is my DD.
I'll post more once I get a chance to wash and detail the car.

My point being that any one that has a clue about stealing a car will buy a hub to slip right on to yours a drive off. Most theives, smart ones anyway, case a vehicle/house/object they plan to steal. That's why parking a car in the garage is a better solution to theft.

An alarm with ignition interrupter or some thing that disables the vehicle is a better option.

Your contribution to this thread was pointless. "Look at this clean car I just picked up, I plan to do this, this and this". Basically rendering it not stock and completely missing the point of this thread.

Rules...

Lol alright man whatever you say. I'm pretty sure OP was referring to people who actually OWNED the vehicles that they post, so therefore my contribution actually meant something because it is MY car. BTW nice car for sale in PA, maybe if you pick it up and own it, you can have an actual meaningful post in the thread. Like I said, whatever you say man. I'm done.

Wait a minute, do you have ABS in your 13? What's that on the top left of this pic?

Some S13s came with abs as an option. It was an option, but required you to order A/C, sunroof, and handling package (vlsd, HICAs, summer tires).

Yes, it's ABS. It's super weird, and I don't really care for it. When braking in snow it feels like I'm on gravel, if that makes sense

You could get the LE package with ABS/VLSD but no Hicas.

Heres mine, I replaced the stock suspension because it was blown with KYB AGX's and Eibach Sportline Springs (its much lower than I would like, stock springs are probably going to go back on it) I also did the poly front tension rod bushings and Kouki S14 seats. I DD the car, it gets 26mpg and runs fantastically. The previous owner got the motor rebuilt at some point also.





Its my 11th 240sx, I think im going to put the Chuki 50/50 turn signals on the front of it and its done.
