In your opinion is this a steal?

Im not sure if it's base model or not but in my opinion this is a good deal for an s14 in Va.

that's not bad at all. it is a base model which means there are 4-lug steelies under those hub caps, def no vlsd, no rear sway bar and no abs. it does have an se wing on it though . i say go for it.

What does the abbreviation "vlsd" stand for?

To OP, that sounds like a great deal. How does the motor sound? Any rattles in there?

definatly look for rust. i bought mine for 750 with very little rust with a wiring nightmare, but runs and shifts excellent (auto for now). depends how much work it needs and how clean it is. for that price, she better be rust free with minor repairs needed, like a brake job or needs a hub or something simple. looks good from pics. check the trunk for rust on the rear strut towers, thats where i found my problem area, and also check the subframe, my other problem.

i think it's a wonderful deal if you don't mind the horrible color and the horrible interior. those wheel wells look dirty as heck so just look under for rust and stuff. if it's not too much then it shouldn't be that bad.

also to the guy that assumed base doens't have abs/vlsd, for future reference that is not true. abs/vlsd was a factory option regardless of trim, how do i know? i have both. now, weather they came separate i do not know for sure but i think most of the times they came together. there are even SE models w/o that option. as for OP, your car does NOT have abs and probably won't have vlsd either. but a clean body s14 5 spd that runs well (if it does) for 2500 in 2009 is definately a good deal, don't pass up.

speaking of se's base, etc... off topic kinda, i know...but is it possible to have an se with no options? my title says SE but i have nothing to prove from it...all numbers match w/ clean history.

SE MUST have, white gauges, 5 lugs, fogs, lip, spoiler, the funny pattern seats, and like rear sway or something. i dono what "options" you're talking about but all the SE's i've seen had at least those listed above. maybe the previous owner took all the goodies out to be resold?

like sunroof, spoiler, abs/vlsd, cd player, upgraded speakers, etc also come on base models too so i wouldn't call them SE options.

let us know how it goes tmr!!

You are correct on all of the above. You can also tell because S14 SE's have intermittent wipers and cruise, both of which the OP's potential buy does not.

Yes, ABS & VLSD were package options, you can't have one without the other (from the factory) unless someone put a diff in there.

My 95 SE came with everything except ABS and VLSD, which it ok since I hate ABS with a passion anyway.

Also OP, car looks nice especially for the price and it's also nice to see that it hasn't been molested yet.

I never something though, why in the world they would offer a blue dash.... especially with the black center pieces...

If this car was an SE model, it would say SE on the back. End of story.

My 1995 240sx SE was an SE model. It had everything you could imagine. A/C, P/S, P/LD, Power sunroof, Factory alarm, Factory stereo, ABS, VLSD, etc..

Not to be ignorant but what is the difference between Zenki, Kouki, or just regular. Is it just a body kit thing or are there some other things I dont know about?

yea. not trying to sound ignorant myself since all i do is 240 homework... i just find it real odd that my title comes up as SE. i have no add-ons.

to the previous poster, kouki is 97-98, and zenki is 95-96, search button above will tell you all the differences.

OP, odd the interior is blue. i didnt know s14s came with blue interior. if you like it get it. you are the one that has to live with it and be happy. me personally, i cant wait to tear this coupe interior out and respray it black...brown is buggin me bad. good luck with whatever you choose

yeah if you do any sort of VIN search it'll come up as SE =/or at least every single one i looked up, whether base or not came up as SE.

oh yea i forgot about that. just because it says SE on the vin search or w/e doesn't make it a SE.

also cruise seems like it came on most models base or SE, but i forgot about the wipers...that only comes on SE i believe.
