I took off the passenger side fender to see if I could find the ground. After following the harness to the front by the washer resevior I noticed how crappy it looked right above it. I easily pushed my hand through the bottom of the battery tray. So after tearing out the washer resevior and battery, I found the rust is only around the battery tray. the whole thing feels like it was about ready to cave through. What I'm getting ready to do is to cut out the rusted area and buy everything needed for a battery relocation. How much should a body shop charge to put in a patch panel though if I get it ready for them to weld in. I've also been contemplating on leaving the car parked until after the holidays and getting some of the other spots that are starting to poke up fixed too.Thanks for the help What I'm getting ready to do is to cut out the rusted area and buy everything needed for a battery relocation.

I lurk the vert forum almost daily and I finally found the passion and a few bucks to get back at the vert.I ordered a Haltech 350Z ecu and am currently in the midst of building a "milspec" engine harness for the car. I am hoping by doing this I can eliminate a lot of unnecessary wiring and also be able to route all the wires where I want them. I also removed all of the chassis wiring from the engine bay by cutting all 62 wires under the core support and running them back into the car and resoldered/reloomed them under the dash. Boy did this make a huge difference in cosmetics! I also ran the power wires and lighting wires in shrink tube up high along the fender rails to keep them out of the way of those pesky tires.Not a huge update but wanted to contribute to the site. I will update as I route the vacuum lines for the ITB,s as well as the engine harness wiring.If this interests anyone let me know and I will go into further depth should there be interest.New power wires and lights under fender - Still haven't decided where the blue stereo wire and inline fuse will mountBEFORE:AFTER - MUCHO cleaner! Don't you agree I ordered a Haltech 350Z ecu and am currently in the midst of building a "milspec" engine harness for the car. I am hoping by doing this I can eliminate a lot of unnecessary wiring and also be able to route all the wires where I want them. I also removed all of the chassis wiring from the engine bay by cutting all 62 wires under the core support and running them back into the car and resoldered/reloomed them under the dash. Boy did this make a huge difference in cosmetics! I also ran the power wires and lighting wires in shrink tube up high along the fender rails to keep them out of the way of those pesky tires.

Not a huge update but wanted to contribute to the site. I will update as I route the vacuum lines for the ITB,s as well as the engine harness wiring.

If this interests anyone let me know and I will go into further depth should there be interest.

New power wires and lights under fender - Still haven't decided where the blue stereo wire and inline fuse will mount?

We're huge car enthusiasts, but primarily focus on BMWs or late 60s American cars. While we've owned a few Nissans through the years, I know very little about 240SXs beyond thinking they were kinda cool back in the day. This specimen is a red/black LE with 88k miles. It took a hard hit in the right front about 6 months ago and looks like its had some repair work done to the left rear quarter as well at some point. The interior is a little rough - looks like it will need new dash cover, door panels, seat covers (leather is dry), steering wheel (sun dried) and carpet. The top is relatively new. The front end will need a hood, right front fender, front bumper cover, right front headlight assembly and likely all the attendant bits underneath. Are interior trim pieces still available Are body parts likely still available And what is something like that worth I realize there is no way of telling outright, but I imagine repair work to the front is a minimum of 4-6k which likely is more than the car is worth. It runs well and actually looks great. Paint is shiny and compared to others I've seen online, panel fit is good and overall condition is not bad considering its age and use. Its an ambiguous set of questions, but if someone responded - "interiors aren't available anymore and its a 3500.00 car when done", then its pretty clear to avoid. If it makes sense to offer the owner 500.00 and take it as a long term project, then maybe I'll consider it. I know it will be gutless and never really appreciate, but it is a good looking car that might make a decent car for the kids or economical run around on weekends car for the fam. It is too nice to just see delivered to a college as a project or sent to a wrecking yard to be picked apart. Thanks for your thoughts. Apologies for the length of the post.

What i am curious about though, is there a direct bulb replacement that will just plug in instead of having to rewire them. Also do the buttons take size 74 lights Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I had already planned on ordering the switch but wanted a 2nd (and more) opinion on whether or not the switch could be the reason the drivers side rear window won't go down, or if you guys think it's the motor itself I am going to order a new switch if I can find one. Does anyone happen to know the part number and if I can still order it from courtesy nissan I know about a year ago they were ~30$, and 50$ from my local dealership. Thanks.

I was planning on just selling it but i was out in the shop one night and i just thought to myself its way too clean to sell and would make a great DD/Project. And i was planning on building the Coupe i have but the vert is just so much cooler. So this week i took off work from Thursday-Saturday to get a good start on the vert and hopefully have it running/driving by Saturday Night. I will be pulling the ka24de out of the coupe and putting it in the vert. Even though i just got done putting the motor in the coupe last month. The motor is out of a 96' S14. But when i pull the motor i will be removing the head and putting a S13 head on(bad valve stem seals on the current one ). So it will be a S14 block and intake manifold and S13 head. I also will be putting brand new timing chain guides on. I replaced the clutch with a OE when i did the swap last month, along with TOB, pilot bearing, flywheel. Yesterday i removed the windshield and will be getting a new one installed this coming monday. Ive already did my door conversion which turned out nicely and ive already got my holes drilled in my firewall for the clutch master cyl and ive done the wiring for the 5 spd conv. After the car is able to hit the street it will be recieving a new paint job(black again, i have a thing with black cars ) but that will be in 2 weeks. The suspension i am using for now(until i order my coils) is just some good ol' skunk 2 lowering springs. And i will be using my sportmax 002s til i order my works. And HOPEFULLY by Dec. she will be boosted! Last week i picked up my exhaust in STL. Its a 3" catback with no resonators and the outlet is 3.5" and has a flare to it.(Pretty much a buddy club but i think its better). The brand is Yamato Garage and the guy makes them in Wentzville, MO. I am the first to buy one and run it on a S13. So if you guys want one let me know and i will give you his email.Oh yeah forgot to mention the top is in great shape and works perfect!Anyways enough of me jabbering, on to the pics.

I found a guy with a shop about an hour from me that would take whats left of the donor car in trade for use of his shop and doing the harder parts for the swap. Its all in and since I got no help from the forum, I just got it all fixed today shy of having to bench bleed the slave cylinder again when I get a day off. The car feels great! The donor car also had a flowmaster on it so I used the cat bacl from that along with a high flow dynomax 3" cat I got earier. Ill post pics soon! The car feels great!
