anyone have any info about a 93 nissan 240sx LE???
its got header,exhuast,KYB struts,walbro fuel pump,,and a gt1 body kit(brand new in box)
my bro is lookin at it tuesday,,just need to know what/if any problems i should look for..other than the obvious

any input,advice,opionions,facts-everything is appreciated
hes asking 1500-and ive already got him down to 1200 without seeing the car in person,body looks straight-with 189k and 100k on motor-which is stock ka24de(i believe)

get_nick · 05-11-2008, 09:19 PM

they are pretty much ready to drift cars. i would spend $100 on a good "buyers inspection" and if it pans out ok, i would get it.

92civicb18b1 · 05-11-2008, 09:39 PM

that's not a bad price either. I was looking at them not to long ago....remember that fastback? That thing was a junker though, seriously, that car needed/needs to be sold for scrap.

get_nick · 05-11-2008, 09:41 PM

if it has a good clutch and clean shifting tranny, it should be good. remember, with rwd cars, the tranny feels a little different than a hydro tranny.

92civicb18b1 · 05-11-2008, 09:50 PM

they feel a lot different, I did like the 944 trans though

INJEN78 · 05-11-2008, 10:30 PM

nice..well were going to look at it tomorrow now,,,so hopefully everthing is good..
he said the slave cylinder is going,,but thats a $20 part,and easy to fix.

92civicb18b1 · 05-11-2008, 10:51 PM

the slave cyl. - it's not as easy on a rwd car but it's not that hard either

Piece of cake.

INJEN78 · 05-11-2008, 11:17 PM

eh,..its pretty straight forward.and takes less than an hour(including bleeding time)
i just cant wait to drift this bitch

92civicb18b1 · 05-11-2008, 11:19 PM

yea it only took me like 20 mins to replace it in the Porsche.

LS_VTEC · 05-12-2008, 07:23 AM

Your a sick man Scott... I am having doubts about you in the public school system using drum sticks now...

INJEN78 · 05-12-2008, 08:44 AM

lol rep for you..that was a good one

TurboMirage · 05-12-2008, 09:05 AM

240 slave cylinder is an easy fix. two 12mm bolts. just hope the lines arent frozen .while you are under there, check the front frame panels under the firewall. those are the most prone to rust.

90DATeggy · 05-12-2008, 11:05 PM

they're drift cars thos single cam KA motors can take a beaten..i dd one and i hit redline like crazy on the turns lol

TurboMirage · 05-13-2008, 12:04 AM

during the stafford springs drift event... i blew a HG and clutch master cylinder and still managed a nice couple of these in my old one :

mods:
short ram intake
ala clayton es100 front tires
bald ass rear tires
kyb agx rear shocks and stock springs

otherwise stock, and did very well

get_nick · 05-13-2008, 12:07 AM

i remember when you bought that conversion. wasn't it for the gf or something? how much did you sell it for?

INJEN78 · 05-13-2008, 10:32 PM

holy hell..what a waste-
drove an hour to go see/pickup this car-
fucking garbage
they spray canned the flat black paint on it,and it wasnt even done right,the original red was showing through in some spots.exhuast was just a weld on tip,abd the pipe had holes and broken mounts,the motor-holy hell,
smelled like hot oil when i open the hood,shook violently when we started it,the fan(mounted on motor) was shaky and had hit the hood numerous times-intake wasnt correct for the car and hit the hood(causing it to only close if slammed)
interior from behind the front seats was gutted-clutch was so stiff pushing down,but when letting off it was mushy-3rd gear,grinds out the asshole,missing emblems(not even shaved) missing 3rd brake light on the hatch(yea big open hole) interior stained and ripped bad-shift knob for a 6 speed

,
painted over taillights,didnt start because batt, cables werent the right ends-
overall just a piece of shit--woulda been a good $500 beater/drifter-but nota 1500 dd--so the search continues

92civicb18b1 · 05-13-2008, 10:39 PM

Sounds almost as bad as the white one I looked at. good luck on the never ending search
