Description: Gotta sell my project. Got it running and driveable finally. As soon as I do, my buddy is getting kicked out of his house so i have no way to work on it and no place to store it.
Details: - Stock RB20 engine with Trust FMIC and no name air filter.
- 3" exhaust with divorced downpipe. Small hole worn into O2 housing, can be welded or replaced easily.
- New clutchmaster 6 puck sprung hub clutch kit.
- FULL SUSPENSION Including KYB struts, eibach lowering springs, tubular control arms front and rear, upper and lower, Tein pieces everywhere and other brands, cant identify everything. Literally everything has been done suspension and steering wise.
- Dual FAL fans need to be wired up but already mounted on CX Racing radiator.
- New battery still installed under hood but I have a battery box in the trunk for relocation.
- Brand new electronic boost controllers hooked up,just needs to be mounted and controller needs to be wired up (very easy)
- Car is primer gray and ready for paint, just needs a good sanding first.
Things it could use sooner than later:
- New tires, the ones on there now are dry rotted.
- The brakes need to be bled, I think the previous owner replaced something and didn't bleed the air out of the lines. The only thing that makes me think this is the brand new looking fluid in the reservoir.
All in all, its a great car almost ready to race, just needs a little TLC and some easy fixes. I personally wouldn't dd it but I prefer comfort on my trips instead of speed haha.

I def didn't trade but maybe the guy you traded to sold it to me...car pulls hard and runs great, just needs paint and maybe an aero kit but it's awesome, just wish I didn't have to sell it.

Re: 1989 Nissan 240sx RB20DET
I was told by the guy I got it from that it was a spooled rear end, but it def has the aluminum driveshaft...engine runs great and has no issues, no leaks, vacuum leaks or Engine light...this car is 2 tires and a brake bleed away from being on the track!!! Do the math really quick:
Bad s13 shell with tons of dents and rust - $800
RB20 swap - $1800 plus install and mounts
Full suspension - $1000 for used parts and labor
Total before FMIC, Exhaust and other extras and good interior: $3600 and perceived value is closer to $4k or more....this is a really good deal and all the hard stuff is already done for you
