I'm sure most of you have read what she's got installed and she has become a second project car, which I can't really afford to have. Z32 is my primary project... having 2 is a royal pain, so I'm selling my 200SX, as I bought a '88 300ZX NA for a beater ($500).

Anyway, what's she's got...

1984 Nissan 200SX 1.8L Turbo HatchbackJust over 70k milesCarfax to Verify Mileage

Modifications:

Suspension Technique Front Springs ($80)Sumitomo HTRII Tires 215/50/15 (Need to check) ($200)New OEM Exhaust Manifold ($150)Used Distributor, Cap & Rotor ($30)New Wires & Plugs ($30)T28 GTiR Turbo (0.64 Compressor / 0.86 Exhaust) ($400) - Will be swapped for a mint condition CA18DET T25 to lower the price...Custom 2.5" Downpipe ($200)Custom 2.5" Straight Exhaust ($300)Volvo Intercooler ($70)Z32 MAF Sensor ($150)Z32 Intake ($150)Custom Intercooler Piping ($100)HKS SSQV BOV ($250) - Will be removed to lower the price...Hyundai Twin Electric Fan Radiator ($70) CA20E Intake Manifold (Ported to Gasket Match at ends) ($100)KA24DE Throttle Body (Manifold Ported to Match) ($50)450cc DSM Injectors ($50)Apexi Super AFC 2 Limited Edition Fuel Computer ($300)LM-1 Innovate Technology Wide Band O2 Sensor ($350)1999 Sentra Front Seats ($100) - Will be removed to lower the price...

All of this on top of the car itself... I also still have the following stock parts:

Radiator, Front Seats, Manifold, Throttle Body, 3 stock injectors & stock fuel rail, MAF, and a few other miscellaneous items.

I also have a set of Z31 Sway Bars I was going to put on that I could include.

As you can see I have some money wrapped up in the car and have no desire to take a loss... Engine runs strong, she just has a minor vacuum leak causing a racing idle I can't track down.

So far with the setup I've boosted 10psi and she's really strong, but the clutch is starting to slip. I may be able to include a CA18DET Clutch & Flywheel with the car if the buyer is interested.

Anyway, if anyone is interested please let me know. I may throw it on eBay and see what kind of interest I get.

Body is overall somewhat clean... its got a little rust in the rear and one side of the car has been repainted, and not all too well I might add. Non of the seals leak, she's water tight... only other issue I've had with the car is one of the powersteering lines leaks, so I've been adding fluid occasionally. Otherwise its been running well.

According to my calculations I have about $3400 in the car... not sure if I can get that back out of her or not... but I'm willing to entertain offers. Turbo is VERY Capable of producing high PSI numbers... probably in the 16-18psi range. On Z32s they're used up to 24psi in pairs when the car is equiped with 555cc injectors... and that's on pump gas. So far I've been running rich at current boost levels and only on 87 octane, so there is a lot of room for tuning. I can also throw in a manual boost controller I have laying around and a autometer boost gauge I currently have setup just for testing.

She is otherwise stock... original radio, etc...

Thanks for looking... I can get photos of whatever you're interested in seeing...

Bump...

Anyone interested? I've got over $4k in her... was thinking of asking $3500... too much all things considered? What would be reasonable? I may just put it on eBay, and see if it sells...

Thanks!

Bump, I adjusted the original post. The turbo that came on my CA18DET clip is in mind condition and I'm going to swap it over to this 200sx and pull the T28 off and sell it seperately. HKS BOV will also be coming off and the seats out and replaced with stockers, unless the buyer wants them. Price is now $2800 obo. I'll throw in a stock CA18DET Clutch & Flywheel as well...
