89 Hatchback

Rebuilt engine with 30000 miles on it (Runs extremely strong starts all the time just flawless)with new fuel injectors,sparkplugsMagnaFlow intake,3' testpipe,3'Muffler,(intercooler but ill guess ill sell that sperately)

The car is mechanically perfect it has 167hp when dynoed. It revs at high rpm (around 6,500) until your foot gets tired and idles perfectly

BUT there are some problems-brakes needs bleeding / or even change of calipers 0$/120$-the wiper doesnt stop when the engine is on (need to take out the fuse) ???$-drivers side front fender is dinged and cracked 55$-trunk has sanding on it 40$-no speakers 30$-needs new front tyres i believe 50% 150$These are all the problems (it is not like all the problems that "I can see")

So this is a really good 89 240sx that can be made into a flawless car for only 250/350$ depends if you want to change the brakes or not

I really dont know guys how much should i sell this car for help me out if any of you guys sold 240sx s before :confused:Thanks for the time and attention

By the way i am selling the car because i got 0$ and owe ****load of money to people around me and this depresses me all the money ill be getting from my family next month will be used to cover my depts and i really cannot leave without money for 2 months. DAMN I REALLY DID LOVED THIS CAR :(

what did you rebuild it with to make 167 whp on a sohc KA:rolleyes? magic internals or something? I'd say thats almost impossible on an N/A single cam KA... and why do you have an intercooler? Is your car turbo'd? 167 whp on a ka-t is still kinda low.

The Kelley Blue Book value on your car is about $1000. You can find out exactly how much by going to http://www.kbb.com and inputing the correct information.

I dunno man, some of your stuff just doesn't add up?:confused:

the intercooler is there when i bought the car previous owner was going to turbo charge it but sold it to me as i was going for T before i got drowned in debts. So it is not in the car i will sell that seperately. About the 167 hp i am not sure may be the intake,new pistons and sutff, muffler and a straight pipe with no cat convert may have caused that. There can be a chip somewhere but i dont think so i have looked for any other upgs and could find none.

Did you dyno it? ..or just add up the extra horsepower that the manufacturers claim it makes? There's no way to be certain unless it was dyno tested..

Intake and exhaust will add about 10ish hp's depending on the setup...For instance, 3 inch on a ka24 wont do as much as 3 inch on my ca18det since its turbo'd and 3 inch adds boost creep...160~ hp seems a little high. I'd say you are more around the 150 hp range, maybe even less (probably) due to miles on the engine.
