ca18det 240sx
VIDEOS IN SECOND POST
NEW PRICE
* Name Paul
* Location Greenville NC
* Means of Contact pm me
* Description
1989 240sx, clean title
ca18det turbo engine swap from japanese silvia models.
nismo racing seats, decent interior, minor dash crack (common in 240sx) is missing back seat.
power steering is almost complete. ac compressor is in but nothing else, so there is another load off the buyer
kyb gr2s and megan springs installed minus one because i rounded off a bolt, shop is taking it off and ill install the last shock before sale.
new timing belt 30 miles ago
blow off valve, front mount intercooler, jdm cluster with the engines miles on it.
compression is 145-150 across the board!!!!
i will do a compression test in front of your eyes if i see cash in hand, otherwise im not spending 30 minutes doing something for someone who has no intention of buying.
walboro 255
no frame rust!! actually, no mentionable rust at all!!!
the engine only has approx 61k miles
still needs one more problem fixed, which is in the steering somewhere, but it might even be unbalanced rims. im investigating and it will be fixed before sale.
new rotors and pads
new tie rods
forgot to mention, previous owner supposedly installed a new clutch, havent taken everything apart though so i cant verify. doesnt slip though. feels firm
Swap - 1400
Shell - 700 NO RUST
suspension - 400
Tie Rods - ~60

and there is more that i can prove
this is just off the top of my head...
i think my price is fair, especially sinc ei have about 5k tied into it and havent been able to even enjoy it besides the 3k miles ive driven it
* Price
3100 FIRM AS any price will ever be, and only until wednesday. this includes all parts
alignment still needs to be done, but at this price im not doing it! this price will go back up after wednesday because i wont need the money after then. it will then go back up to 3250/3500 and will never budge again
I cant believe this hasnt sold. you cant find good condition ka 240s in this price range.
ive just got some stuff to deal with and i cant finish the car and i could use the cash right now, my moms got some stuff thats come up and i need to help her.

Re: ca18det 240sx
loook at how good this pull is in 5th gear from 3-4k...not even tapping .5 potential can you argue with it?
another good example, you can clearly see im not even beating on it. just letting of gas and going again...and it still pulls as hard as your sr HARRRRRRh
you can even see it break the tires at 80 kmh, and like i said im not even wide open throttle

Re: ca18det 240sx
up, not going to leave my possession until the turbo problem is fixed, im not selling a car that has something wrong with it.
so until the issue is resolved its staying with me. and after its resolved it might be staying with me anyway, im getting attached

Re: ca18det 240sx
sr 240 (not happenin)
or b swapped del sol...
only. thats just because she wants a del sol. and i wouldnt mind an sr for aftermarket support and easy to find parts
new turbo was put on today, smoke is completely gone. no problems whatsoever again.
suspension still pending install, and like i said, if i have too much fun im probably keeping unless a GOOD offers comes through.
