SOLD!!!
Hey guys,
The vehicle is a red 1993 240SX SE hatch. My goal was to hit 240,000km and have a big party…it is at 238,760km and I am forced to sell it. FML!
Cliffnotes:
Body dent on rear left quarter (from guy backing out and scraping it…GRR)
Rear right of bumper has damage (another guy misjudging distance…GRR)
Frame has rust but has been reinforced and rust cut out with new metal welded in
HG going on rebuilt KA, should be changed ASAP
Shitloads of parts, ideal partout car
*NOTE: Pictures are before the 2 parking lot incidents, the rear quarter is now dented and the rear right side of the bumper has a small hole. I will update this thread with more pictures as soon as I find my micro USB cable for my phone.
I am currently going back to university, and the head gasket is on the way out on the rebuilt KA (about 20,000km on it since the rebuild). I am so sad to have to do this, this car has been the center of my life for the last 3 years and I have spent every dollar I made on it…many of you who know me can vouch for that. lol
I have shitloads of goodies in the car including:
HSD HR Coils (Installed in September a month before multilink)

Braided SS brake lines all 4 corners
New waterpump, definned HICAS p/s pump (all working well, good condition P/S lines too)
Comes with 4 SE-R Spec-V Gunmetal Rims (with worn summer tires)
Currently mounted with stock rims at the front with meaty Winterguard Tires, steelies with Michellin X-Ice’s at the back (plenty of life left on all winters, but the fronts need rebalancing)
I am very short on time as I am in Mechanical Engineering (pure stress) and am located in Waterloo for the next 4 months. I DO NOT have the time or place to part out the car.
I am willing to sell it at a huge loss as I am still paying insurance/parking etc…
There are a few dents and scratches. There is surface rust on the rear wheel wheels starting to form since last year. Frame is in average condition, all of the structural components like the frame rails, lower rad support and floors had all rust cut out and new metal welded in by Draggone. I’d say that the strut towers should be addressed in the near future if the car is to be tracked or driven aggressively, it is starting to rot, near where the ECU kickpanel is. I never tracked it so never got around to reinforcing the strut towers and caging it.
I will include so many extras, I just need to get rid of this car and focus on getting my engineering degree.
Thanks guys. Please email me at ahmadghaus@gmail.com regarding more information. I could write a book about my last 3 years with this car. A lot of information to be shared, I have nothing to hide, ask me before purchasing.
You can take all the goodies out, swap them to your mint S13 chassis, and turn this into a winter car, or you can change the HG or drop in another KA/SR and have a solid car. You could also part it out yourself and make MUCH MUCH more than my asking price. The majority of the parts were recently installed, so everything is in great shape.
Some extra parts I just remembered:
Spoilerless Red Hatch to replace monstrosity on car currently (never got around to installing it, painted hatch myself from blue to red, so not an amazing job…lol)
Redline KA-T ECU for 370cc, Stock MAF, T28/T25ish setup, no limiter (talk to Kheim from Redline for retune in the future)
Small/Medium FMIC (used, one tab broken)
Mookie boost gauge
Prosport Oil Pressure Gauge
Spare KA24DE valve cover
2x Spare KA24DE Timing Covers
Brand new OEM Nissan KA thermostat
Brand new Prestone KA thermostat (I had to remove it after 1 day because of the air in the system from the bad HG)
Original Nissan Black Zipper Zag
Original Privacy Hatch Cover
Original Sunroof Cover
Rebuilt automatic tranny with new torque convertor
Schultz catalytic convertor (still good, just needs to be cut off from my stock exhaust)
All stock strut & spring assemblies
I will add more as I remember. Note, I will include EVERYTHING 240 related that I own for my asking price, as I will no longer have any use for it…sniff sniff
Edit>More goodies on the car I forgot to list:
Optima Red Top Battery (lots of warranty left, I think it was 5 years starting early 2010)
H&R Mg/Al Alloy 25mm 4x114.3mm Adapter Style Spacers (work perfectly with SE-R Spec-V rims and their +47 offset…lol)
New Champion Starter
Quicker Ratio HICAS Front Steering Rack (seals starting to leak fluid into tie rod boots, does not affect performance)
Brand new silicon tie rod boots
Alpine MP3 CD Player
A-Pillar Triple Gauge Mount (not in car, obviously, it is still N/A)
NGK Platinum Spark Plugs (still in sealed package)
Bosch Premium Ignition Wires (lifetime warranty)
New dizzy cap/rotor
Replaced right gas tank strap
Good set of jumper cables with copper terminals (Mastercraft IIRC)
Timing Light
A bunch of unopened Castrol GTX 5w30 Motor Oil (changed oil ever 3k km/4 months, let temp gage go past C in winter before moving, etc…shame about the HG starting to fail after the meticulous maintenance)
I might even have a can of Seafoam lying around for shits and giggles.
^Wow…that’s another grand of stuff right there I forgot to mention, I used to wonder where all my money went. lol
