I'm thinking about buying this

[BrandAidDesignG35]

Hey guys and gals, I'm wondering if you guys can offer some input...

I'm thinking about getting another car, I want one that I can modify, with parts like turbos without ruining everything... say, on my G...

So, I've attached a pic / link below, it's a 95 with low km, pretty cheap too...leather, 5spd, oh, it needs minor body work and it's like 2000km away

It looks like a fun project to me

Oh, and to clarify, I'm not selling the G35

I'm looking at several right now, going out to look at one locally that came from out of town... I will let you guys know what I think

I see rust...I don't buy cars with rust.

[all G'd up]

Its got potential... 240 is a great car! How much they want for it? I see some rust spots... Any more than whats in the pic or underneath anywhere...

I see rust...I don't buy cars with rust.

My first car had cancer.... I don't consider ANY cars that have it. First thing I do when I get serious about buying a used car is get a carfax subscription and start checking out cars that I find online.Normally, I don't consider any cars that have been brought down from the north.....just me.

OK, everyone, I know it's littered with rust... but I also know if I search for one on ebay, autotrader, or whatever, it comes up with zero results

I did see some nice RHD s13 on ebay, but the sale seems sketchy, as do the others I've seen online thus far.

The one I looked at tonight is in great shape never winter driven (which is obvious) and also, it has leather, the KA24DE which I know better than the current owner, but the only bad thing is it's a 93 super hicas... which is good, but I'm not familiar with this system, and prefer the 95+ style... but I'll have to think about it.. I agree, the rust is a , but I plan to strip it down to the frame and re build the whole car with turbo setupl... it's a plan in progress, keep ya'll posted, YEAHHHHH

im a 240 nut so im fully behind youBut you can find a cleaner new kouki(97-98) which is rare and looks better IMOfor 3500-4000 grand So you should wait and find one without rust and the SE model so you wont have to do the five lug or any of the fun stuff .

But im full on for you having a 240 for a project

We got my oldest a 91 with super hicus and it was a GREAT car!!!Wish I had not repoed it from him and sold it But, he was doing stupid sh** and I had to.Should have kept it for ME.

I vote for the 93 with hicus, it's rare....is it a hatch back???

[BrandAidDesignG35]

Yes SVT, it's a 93 240sx super hicas KA24DE 5sp, black, comes with Ingen CAI, exhaust, 17" wheels, leather... and lots of potential... He's asking 3K, it's never seen winter, really great body, frame, engine looks super clean, but I'm a bit hesitant, because it has a custom hood scoop which pulls air into the engine bay, but the inlet is just above the filter element,

Do you think that water could get sucked in?

I might be weird. But if I was looking for a project car I would be looking for a 300zx. They are sooo sexy. Ohhhhh sooo Sexy.

mmmmmm 240sx. classic. i used to want one till i started liking the G

I say save the money and mod your G!!! if you got 5k to blow... put a Vortec supercharger in your g and then you will be really happy!

You will get something like 400hp out of it.. that 4banger is going to need a lot more than a vortec supercharger to give you that!

Does it really matter? They sell KA's at the 99 cents store lol.

A little rain won't hurt, a down pour on the other hand might make things interesting. I'd get a cover made for those super wet days.
