Ugh $3600 is a little much IMO. But have fun I suppose, If this is your 6th 240sx then I'm sure you know whats ahead of you.

3600 is not bad at all.

Is it a 95 or 96?

I got the yellow lenses, if you do that wet sand thing (which I did) it works, but after a while they'll be yellow again. Curse of the S14 zenki!!

i'll be posting up a build thread of the coupe soon. its nothing special really, its a learning experience for me. ive never rebuilt a motor before so i picked my coupe(89 single cam) to learn on, cheap and simple for a first timer.

man why r u such a hater sorry you cant buy a S14 for 500 bucks like you can a 89 like you got. if the car was a baser then he would have payed less , its a SE with less then 200k on it, sounds like a good deal to me. i payed 4k for mine its a base but it only had 100k and brand new toyos so i felt good about it NEwayz . Nice find man the black paint looks good

You guys are paying too much for your cars. I can find zenki's for that price all day at used lots.

I paid ~3k for mine w/ an SR already in it and wired up. Funny thing is the car was up for sale for almost 3 months before i picked it up.

I'm not really hating. I just don't see a 14 year old car being worth $3600.

That's a decent price... I paid well over that back in 05' for mine. s*** I dropped $2,400 more than he did. But mine had 76k miles, was owned by an older lady and spent it's life in the garage...

That sounds like a good deal to me, Everyone thinks they s*** gold around here, best deal ive seen is an s13 with sr20 and coilovers for $5500. BTW aluminum polish or machine glaze will take that yellow right off.
