Make: Nissan
Model: 240SX
Year: 1993
Trim: Convertible
Miles: Chassis 180,xxx Engine 15
Price: $3000 OBRO

Description: Selling my S13 Convertible. The SR20 is from a late model S14 (NA ecu code). It runs and drives, but the engine needs some more work to get it running good. It currently will buck/stutter under load. I suspect there is a leak somewhere, I don't have the time or money to investigate further. Leak down test showed 10% on all four cylinders. Compression showed only 110 psi on all four, however I've been told that consistent compression may be an indicator of a faulty gauge. Since the leak down test passed I have no reason to believe the long block is faulty.
The engine was disassembled, inspected, and rebuilt using new bearings and piston rings. The original crank, rods, pistons, block, and head were all in great shape. Block and head were decked and hot tanked. The block was honed as well.
Rejection sticker: failed for exhaust being too loud and headlights needing adjustment.
Top goes down on its own but needs help to go up all the way. The pump is leaking, likely needs a rebuild.
The door panel/seatbelt conversion was done on this too.
There's no radio or shift knob.
P/O was in what looks to be a low speed hit on the front end. You can see the scuffing on the front bumper. The hood buckled slightly, that's why the cover is missing on that light. The lights are fully functional. I think with a new hood the cover will go back on without issue. Radiator support wasn't damaged at all.
Power steering pump leaks. Likely needs the copper rings replaced.
No air conditioning.
The car has almost no rust. Only spot that's left is in the front part of the rear wheel wells, and it's a small amount. I patched a rust spot in the back of the passenger seat area (probably where some water accumulated due to the rear window being missing).
Rear windows go up and down fine
Speedometer doesn't work.
Trunk needs to be opened with the key.
Rear interior panels - the drivers side one is missing the piece that wraps up around the top part, P/O cut it off. I like the look of it without the panels so I left them off but I'll include them.
Tonneau cover is included - needs some massaging to get it's shape back.

TL/DR: Runs and drives, stutters under load, suspect vacuum/boost leak. Engine rebuilt and has roughly 15 miles on it.

Engine details:
ARP main studs
ARP head studs
OEM gasket kit
Clevite main and rod bearings
OEM pistons/rods (original)
OEM piston rings (replaced)

Modifications to the car:
Shaftmasters steel 1 piece driveshaft
R33 front brake calipers (same as Z32 30mm iron)
Z32 rear brakes
Z32 e-brake fully functional with Z32 2+2 cables
Apexi GT Spec exhaust
Apexi donwpipe
Nismo Coppermix clutch
Mishimoto radiator
Greddy intercooler
S14 leather seats (not perfect)
S14 wheels
Flex-a-Lite electric fans w/ controller (need to be wired in)
Wiring Specialties S14 SR to S13 convertible engine harness
Wiring Specialties lower engine harness
5 Speed conversion
ARP extended wheel studs - I think it was 350Z and Evo studs?
Muteki SR48 lug nuts

Any questions please let me know, I check back here pretty frequently. I can take more pictures of anything as well, I will try to get some of the undercarriage this weekend.

Thanks
