Got an 89 240sx with a JDM CA18DET swapped. Car's gray in color, power windows, power locks, top of the line alarm, sound system. The body itself has about 190000km, but the motor has only 50000km and it has a brand new timing belt. The motor has only been driven for around 4000km ever since I swapped it in. the car's is using an S14 VLSD, 92 240sx gauge cluster, Z32 twin turbo fuel pump, 3" downpipe all the way to muffler, custom IC piping, FMIC, custom radiator, and I also have a set of ca16 cams put in for higher lift and longer duration.

Asking $7800 CDN, but will take other reasonable offers. Email or PM me if anyone's interested. I'm located in Vancouver. I need to sell as I need the money to start my new project. thanks guys

hmm....... actually 7000USD = 4782CAD. I got these number from http://www.xe.com/ucc/ as well.

Yeah the radiator may be small, but very effective! I have not had any overheating problems ever, even on hot summer day. Of course, i live in vancouver, british columbia so the summer temp will never be as hot as some cities in the US, so please don't jump on me about this.

Actually when I leave the car at idle for a little while after driving hard, the temp needle actually goes down from the middle. And yes, i've checked the thermostat, engine temp sensor, my gauge cluster everything is work perfectly.

no automatic seatbelts. I would like to have automatic seatbelts, but canadian models don't come with it.

looks like an S14 turbo on it too. intercooler piping is a little teeny weeny as is the radiator but not a bad deal.

Sorry guys I should have cleared this up in the beginning. The SAFC and T28 balling bearing turbo i'm going to keep for my next project.

Right now i have the stock t25 turbo bolted back on. Sorry for the miscommunication guys. ;)

that's quite the car you have there! and the amount it comes to is pretty good5,363.40 USD

the craftsmanship on that car seems pretty good, and if i'm not mistaken that radiator's a del sol radiator from the B16's, those ones were small, but were ultra efficient. Anyway, smells like a good deal.

Bump!
