New to NICO, some car pics

[Fieldy]

Hey all, I picked up my 240 a few months ago after I got into a pretty bad bike wreck. Had to get on 4 wheels, at least until I heal up. Got the car from a friend from work who bought it from the original owner, all original, everything works, and the A/C is even cold! Only 130,000 miles when i got it too. Best part is, I only paid $500. Be jealous.

Oh yeah.. ignore the license plate.. not mine (previous owner), never even been to Washington. I live in San Diego.

Clean car...5 spd?

Thanks, and yeah definitely 5 speed.

And if you think the Exterior is clean, check the engine bay!



Plans so far are just keeping the SOHC goin, S14 seats and wheels. Might lower when its time to replace the suspension.. which seems like it might be soon. I'll try to take some interior pics after I clean it.

Spent the morning today pulling out the front seats, vacuuming and cleaning the carpet underneath, then swapping the seat back from the passenger seat to the drivers seat, HUGE difference!! The side bolsters on the drivers seat were completely shot, as well as most of the other padding, I could feel just about every rail and spring! Now that is my passengers problem Also cleaned up the seats with the carpet cleaner, and they NEEDED it. I think someone spilled a super size coke on the passenger seat in like 1994, but about 2 hours and they are good as new. Swapping the seat backs was crazy easy too, definitely recommend it to anyone who's seats are as bad as mine. That's all for now, enjoy the pics.

On a side note, does anyone know what I can use to plug the holes from the front license plate mount? I finally got my Michigan plate in the mail yesterday (hellz yeah smog check avoidance!)

[TK_Encore]

ive had my car for almost a year now and could never figure out what those straps in the back were for

[sebazztard]

soooooo clean

even original floor mats... it looks weird to NOT see a busted out stock s13 driver seat.

[Ghast]

Wow beautiful congratulations!

Welcome to the club!

Because I put the busted out seat back on the passenger side

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome! I must admit I lurked on this board for a while before joining, and there is a lot of really useful info to be had, as well as a lot of immaturity, which is definitely a good thing. I will be taking good care of the 240, but I do foresee it being up for sale in anywhere from 6 months to a year (not the worlds best family car, but a great commuter) I'll keep it tasteful and hopefully in a little while someone here can score a good deal on a clean hatch!

[S13Joe]

Wow, and I thought my coupe was clean. Congrats dude, very very nice car.

[S13Joe]

Looking at it again... Its like you got a time machine and went to 1990 and stole it off the dealer lot. f***ing clean.
