PA Testing waters: 95 240sx, SR20, GT2871R, built head, full suspension, body kit

[jspaeth]

Hi everyone---I used to be very active on here in the 2006-2011 time frame. During that time, I spent over $27,000 modifying a mint clean 95 SE. It was sold to me by my father with 186,000 of highway only driving on it and was garaged up until that time--needless to say, quite a dream. Selling because I just don't have the time to drive it any more or give it the love it needs---it deserves to be on a track! Also---I have another daily driver that I really enjoy driving.

Testing waters and wanted to get a feel for what this might be worth.

Key highlights include (full mod list below pictures...it is long!):

- Apex'i PowerFC Standalone ECU
- GT2871R
- Fully built head with HKS Step 2 264 cams
- Greddy Intake Manifold
- Externally gated stock exhaust manifold, swain coated
- Full body kit with kouki S14 front end conversion
- Makes approximately 350hp/300 ft-lbs at 17 psi (turbo can easily do 20 psi!), tuned by Jeff Evans in PA
- Wilwood big brake kit
- Very extensive suspension replacements (see below for full list)











Full Modification List, Original Price Paid, and Mileage Installed/Performed (current mileage is ~222,000)

The pictures are from after my first body kit job---the fenders were re-done with OEM. Will post up some newer pictures soon.

With a small amount of time, this car can be taken from great to stellar---needs a small amount of time and energy to be a track beast

Nowadays you'd be lucky to get a fair asking price. I admire your running parts log. I just scribble notes for mileage on my receipts. The way you track the wear & tear gives me an awesome OCD boner. Thanks for being thorough. GLWS.

What do you mean by fair asking price?

I've seen people posting similar S14s with SR20 with far less suspension mods, no head work, no body kit, no standalone ECU for 6-8-9k.

What are your thoughts on what this could go for?

PM me with thoughts if you don't mind.

[hatchtastic]

Anything is only worth what someone is willing to pay, for what you have done to the car and from the condition in the photos I would say around 12-13k is a good start, just my opinion tho

[jspaeth]

Thanks-that's exactly what I was thinking as well

"Insert obligatory 3k offer"

But in all fairness I think from what I have seen from this site, you won't get your fair asking price at least not fast or easily.

For what I think price wise, which looks to total around 30k with the actual chassis included as a cheapo version, the starting price should be ~15k and then they can haggle you down some. That's just my two cents!

Youd definitely make more money parting it out. GLWS

Still love that my quote is in your sig hahahha all these years later

[dizzariot]

Well don't get me wrong: this is worth some serious coin. I'm just saying you're (unfortunately) going to have a hard time getting said coin for it.

[jspaeth]

I'm in no rush and don't need the money.

Want to find a good buyer that will pay for it and will put some more time and a little more money into making it into a track star

LOL I didn't even notice that it was still there until you pointed it out. I tried finally removing it but for some reason it won't let us edit sigs anymore.

So happy that the legacy of the hamburger story lives on forever!!!

Beautiful S chassis! Any pics of the engine bay?

Nice. I hope you can find that person. This thing oozes 'attention-to-detail'.

Transparently, the engine bay is still the original maroon color.

I did the body kit and paint to white at a time when I didn't have access to an engine lift or the appropriate tools to fully gut the engine bay.

The engine bay is okay and designed more from a functional standpoint than an aesthetic show car standpojnt.

Will try to dig up pictures or just take one

[jspaeth]

Bump it.

Anyone who is interested or can make an offer feel free to PM me!

[turbodett]

Would you consider a trade?

[suppjoe]
