Up for sale is my not quite finished S13 project. The car idles fine, but has hestiation problems when trying to rev. I haven’t timed it yet, which could easily be the problem. ECU throws no codes, so it’s probably an easy fix, but I haven’t had time to work on it for several weeks now. In any case you can come and take a look for yourself and see the condition. I haven’t driven it at all except for up and down the driveway.

This car was from the US, and has no underbody rust or rot at all. The only rust on the car is in the spare wheel well, since the tailights leak apparently.

The car was repainted a few years ago to a metallic blue. The front bumper and one headlight cover still need paint. There are a couple spots (engine bay and hood) where the paint has chipped or flaked.

I need to get rid of it because I need money for my trip to Australia. I’m going to continue to work on it until I leave, so if I get it running the price is going to go up obviously.

I’m hoping for a quick sale, so make me an offer. My ballpark is around $5000. I will safety it, but not e-test. I’m looking for cash mainly, but am open to trades involving cash.

Here’s what it’s got:

CA18DET with S13 SR turbo  
KYB AGX with Eibach Sportlines  
2004 Sentra SER 17" wheels, Toyo Proxes T1S (25%) front, kumho 711 (60%) rear  
HKS Jasma spec 3" catback, 2.5" high flow cat.  
Converted to Canadian seatbelts.  
new rear brakes

Here are some pictures from a while ago. I’m going to get more recent ones up asap. Take note of the frame condition, but the parts you see on it are probably not coming with it.

Well now that I’m away from it, I don’t seem to care so much. It’d be nice to have some extra cash and pick up a car while I’m here in Australia. If you want to lowball me, feel free.

I have taken a deposit, but the buyer is absent and hasn’t been paying the balance in some months. This car needs to move from where it is ASAP.

Anyone who is willing to give me something near $5000 for it, please contact me. If you can’t afford something near $5000, please don’t.
