1991 Nissan 240SX Hatchback

CLEAN title 1991 Nissan 240SX previously owned by three Super Street magazine editors (Brent Romans, Jonathan Wong, and Charles Trieu) over the last decade. The buildup was followed in the magazine and a final feature was done in 2008. After that, the car was revised and will be featured again in this year’s December issue of Super Street magazine. Over $30k was spent on this car. Yes $30,000 in parts, tally it up yourself. Since the buildup, the car has seen less than 3,000 miles of driving. All the parts are practically brand new still. Everything is still in great shape. The chassis has a low 100,870 miles on it, and the motor is your typical 40k mile JDM import. Time was spent choosing a clean motor, and this one is very clean inside. Interior is extremely clean. No cracked dash or anything horrible. No air conditioning. It has been dyno tuned on pump gas to 340whp (dyno sheet included). Car has been raised up and can be raised up even more, to accommodate shipping.

The Bad
Car does not like cold starts. After it warms up, it will run and start up fine. You will need to retune the cold start feature or maybe swap out the IACV (Idle Air Control Valve – a $120 item new at the dealer here).

The Good
$30k worth of mods. I sell, you buy. I lose money, you come up.

Buyer must arrange pickup and shipping if needed. I have used DAS before and it can be up to $1500 to go coast to coast, in an enclosed trailer.
