1992 Nissan 240sx With Sr20det on 2040-cars
Las Vegas, Nevada, United States
|
Completely stock when I bought it 8 years ago, this car has consumed almost all of my extra money when I was in my early 20's. Well I'm now 30 I own a more practical car as well as a fast motorcycle and would like some cash for a house. I have around 15k invested in it but we all know its impossible to get it all back. First of all before I list all the mods (will probably forget some) the chassis it self was never in an accident and was originally purchased In Arizonia. It is COMPLETLY rust free. The paint however is faded and the hood, roof and top of passenger rear fender where the paint was faded the worst have been spray painted. Body : Sound deadening removed/no ac Tanabe sustec pro coil overs (set up to near max ride height, can go much lower if that's what you're into) Nismo power brace Tomei 2 way dif (one of the most recent additions, cost over $850 still needs to be broken in) Energy suspension polyurethane rear subframe inserts Upgraded speakers incl custom brackets to fit sony 6x9's in rear (used to have subs but were sold years ago) Hood has real Aerocatch lockable hood latches (a nice security feature) as well as fully integrated vents New optima battery relocated to rear. Can easily trip the circuit breaker when storing or working on car Dash was cracked but I meticulously removed all the foam and sanded and painted the bare plastic Bare carbon fiber front bumper (never got around to painting it) Rear bumper support was changed to an aluminum one from a Saturn (can see it in the pic, this was a ~20lb weight savings alone) Rear spoiler was rescued from pic a part, came off a dodge but fits the car very well. Also much lighter than the stock cracked one! Tein front strut tower bar (the cheap alien bolts that came with this were removed in favor of larger grade 8 hardware) DC sports rear strut tower bar Carbon fiber mirrors Engine/Drivetrain : 1995 blacktop sr20det very low mi. on engine, just recently changed the oil (full syn mobile one 10w30) Car does not leak any fluids and never overheats even in the hottest summer weather here in Las Vegas XTD 6 puck copper ceramic clutch (only mod I regret doing as the original clutch was damn near perfect, I will include the stock clutch in the sale. This xtd clutch is like an on/off switch.) Driveshaft shop brand 1piece steel driveshaft Nismo motor mounts Cx racing intercooler Real HKS blow off valve Upgraded Koyo copper radiator with the proper jdm fan shroud. Samco radiator hoses Ebay boost valve (not fully hooked up, the car has never been run over 7 lbs of boost btw) 3" exhaust Apex power fc (also have a Q45 maf not installed that will come with the car) Hi flow fuel pump Wheels : 5zigen fn01rc, 17x7 and 17x8 (these are very lightweight but not the most aggressive fitment) Plenty of life on the tires, 215/40/17 and 245/40/17 Stock size cross drilled rotors, pads still have lots of life on them as well Alignment was done when the coilovers were installed and is set at negative 2.5 degrees front and negative 1.5 rear ( car has adjustable front camber plates and rear has been set with the stock eccentric bolts) AND MUCH MORE THAN I CAN REMEMBER Car is very light (probably sub 2,500 lb) and quick but I have been spoiled by my Kawasaki Ninja so it will never feel that fast to me. Mechanically it needs nothing and will still get decent gas mileage with all these mods. Legally speaking it could use some brighter headlights, one of the rear taillights is out, and the front windshield has a small crack that has continued to grow over the years. You could easily buy some dynamat, new carpet, get it repainted and have a nice daily OR add the Q45 maf I'm including along with a larger turbo then get it retuned and have a very fast car. |

NA auto output to reach 11-year peak
Thu, 13 Jun 2013According to Automotive News, automakers are expected to manufacture 16 million light vehicles in North America in 2013. That's up 500,000 units from last year and marks the largest number since 2002. The prediction comes courtesy of LMC Automotive and IHS Automotive, which point to the improving US economy as a bellwether for total production. LMC Automotive says North America will produce 16 million vehicles while IHS has a slightly more optimistic forecast of 16.1 million units. A total of seven automakers are slated to increase production on the continent this year. Nissan is set to see the largest jump at 20 percent over last year.
Volkswagen, meanwhile, is one of the only manufacturers predicted to scale back production. Analysts expect the German company's output to fall by 23 percent to 170,000 units, thanks in part to slow demand for the Volkswagen Passat and Jetta.
Nissan's big price cuts threatening others' profits
Mon, 24 Jun 2013Bloomberg reports Nissan may be keeping the competition up at night even more than normal. The Japanese automaker recently cut prices on seven of its models and bolstered incentive offerings in an attempt to gain market share in the US, and the strategy is working. Last month saw the company's sales leap by 25 percent, which is nearly triple the industry average. Nissan is currently taking advantage of the weak yen - Japanese currency has fallen by 15 percent against the dollar, which has given the automaker around $1,500 per car to use to either add features or cut prices. Some analysts are calling the policy "scorched earth."
Meanwhile, American automakers like Ford, General Motors and Chrysler are doing their best to keep from sliding back into old bad habits. The Detroit Three have steadily moved away from a discount and incentive strategy to bring in new buyers since the 2009 recession. Those short-sighted tactics helped paved the way for bankruptcy at both GM and Chrysler. As Bloomberg reports, the resolve to stay away from big discounts may falter if Toyota begins using similar tactics.
NHTSA urges owners of recalled Takata airbag vehicles to take immediate action
Mon, 20 Oct 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Department of Transportation are taking the unusual step of issuing a followup press release urging owners of certain recalled vehicles "to act immediately" to fix their cars and trucks. The problem in question concerns the repair campaigns for rupturing Takata airbag inflators issued in June and covers a long list of models from Toyota, Lexus, Honda, Acura, Mazda, BMW, Nissan, Infiniti, Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, GMC, Oldsmobile and Pontiac.
While NHSTA doesn't specifically say why the recall is vital in the new release, Toyota's own explanation in its newly announced renotification campaign earlier today sheds some new light on the topic. According to the Japanese automaker, in testing, Takata found a possible link between the rupturing airbag inflators and high humidity. NHTSA is advocating that all owners pursue repairs immediately if they haven't already done so already. This is especially crucial for those drivers especially in Florida, Puerto Rico, Guam, Saipan, American Samoa, Virgin Islands and Hawaii because of the humid conditions there.
We don't need to tell you how dangerous an inadvertent airbag deployment could be - even in a stationary vehicle - but adding to the Takata issue is fears that the deployment could lead to shrapnel being sprayed into the cabin.
