Hey would you be interested in a trade for my 240 + some cash from me?



1990 240SX Hatchback
110k miles.
Very well maintained.
By far the cleanest s13 I have ever seen.
Has sunroof
Front lip
A/C works great
Heat works great




Car has a clarion in-dash DVD player with nice speakers and a nice amp to power them, also a nice little 10in sub, nothing fancy, but sounds awesome imo.


Things that have been changed since I bought the car.

Rear main seal
Trans fluid
Rear End fluid
Spark Plugs
Spark Plug wires
Sachs Clutch
Master Cylinder
Slave Cylinder
Oil changed with fully synthetic Mobil 1
K&N Drop in filter
Changed some hoses and other small things
HAWK brake pads
Brembo rotors
TEIN HR Coilovers
Adjustable rear upper control arms
20% tint all around
New headlights
Replaced turn signal lamp
New studded snow tires on the back.
Can probly come with 4 gold wheels with ok tires if buyer wants (Extra $$$)

Bad:
Power antenna doesn't work.



Im sure I've forgotten somethings that I have done to it.




















THIS IS OBVIOUSLY BEFORE THE COILOVERS

I can understand that but as stated above i had a professional shop do all the work. Also i said that nothing was changed internally no injector size, no hg, not even the fuel pump. On top of all of that i was using an AEM EMS for only 7psi of boost and for roughly 500miles.

Actually i have had many calls people telling me i am selling for a lot cheaper than i should be. With that said i have posted my car up on Autotrader for a higher asking price and will play the waiting game untill i get a descent offer.

Thanks for letting me post on here CL and could a MOD please DELETE this thread. Thanks.

i think the reason for a lower price than people are use to is due to the marketplace. the economy's no good, the used and new car market is flooded with incredible deals right now. don't forget it is also middle of winter and a RWD coupe is not exactly what ppl are considering..

i use to have a '97 SC3 5spd and would be more interested in this if my other car wasn't a 2 seater roadster. can you give more info on this car? which owner are you? what tires do you have on right now and how much tread life left? any imperfections on the paint? feel free to pm me to email me if you feel the need to. thanks

no one bought it cuz he's no longer selling it.
also, his car didn't even start once he removed the turbo kit.
there had to be issues with the car... and maybe once he had it resolved, the car's no longer on the marketplace?

Just to clear things up, the car always started.. when i went back to stock though, l didn't have the MAF connecter that plugs up to the intake arm since the shop cut the stock wiring harness to place in the AEM EMS piece.

The issue was i had to buy another wiring harness or make a plug for it. Since the stock wiring harness is really expensive and i just simply needed the connector.. no need to buy a whole harness.. needless to say i had the shop make a connecter for it and the problem was figuering out the wiring SCHEMATICS.. once that was figured out, car is like it was before.

BTW the reason i don't want to sell it anymore is because of all the lowballers i encounter on daily basis.
