What car next?

[silverzx]

Oh and for 2k you could get a very clean stage 1/2 S13 or a fairly tatty S14.

Where? You seem to be about 2k below all the ones I have seen?

If you can show me a clean stage 1/2 s13 I'd be tempted to buy it myself.

They can be found, patience and dedicated searching is usually involved to find bargains! Just like any car really!

Even just looking over SXOC there is a couple worth a look:

Stage 2 '13 with Tax and test just sold - not tidy but cheap.

I have decided to put my kuro black 200sx s13 up for sale. It's a 1994 with 111k on the clock. The car was t boned but has not been repaired yet. I have still been using the car as a daily driver. The passenger side door doesnt open at the moment but With starting an apprenticeship today I realised I have neither the time or money to sort it out. Also the front hubs need replacing as the bearings have gone and it was cheaper to buy hubs. I have new complete hubs (not fitted) included in the sale. Relatively clean underneath. No rot. Minor surface rust. Other than slightly dented sils (not rotting) Clean for a uk in my opinion.

The car is mot'd and taxed till November 13

I have owned the car for 7 and a half years and the reason I am selling it is because I barely drive it now! I’ve owned it since it had 118,000 miles on the clock. Car has never been raced/drifted on track and was bought completely standard. As you can see I’ve only put a few mods on it.

I did a compression test (wet and dry) around 3 months back and the results were fine which I believe means the piston rings and vales are OK. For a car that is 20 years old, it drives and looks great.


Points to mention

The car smokes very slightly for which I have been told is most likely the oil seals on the turbo. It still holds boost very well and drives OK. It happens so rarely that I hardly ever need to top up the oil. I ensure I warm up / cool down the turbo. I also have another turbo which I will supply with the car – no play in the shaft (T25 standard turbo).

Very rarely the engine runs a little lumpy on idle for a few seconds but usually drives OK after that. Car always starts first time without any struggle. I’ve been told it could be the idle control valve or coil packs which could do with replacing - This is a simple job.

Only last month someone reversed into my front bumper with a toe hook. The bumper did not crack but the paint did slightly. So to prevent it from peeling more, I have put a patch over it as seen in the pics.



Looking for £2195 OVNO. I know these cars are getting rarer by the day and therefore I am in no rush to sell it. There are very few out there left in decent condition and I believe this is one that will still last many, many years!

S12 - something a bit different.

Some of you may have seen this car for sale about a year and a bit ago, when it was an auto and up in Yorkshire.

I bought it, and since have done quite a bit, and now it is back up for sale for the same price. I have just got a new job, and now have the money to buy a Z32 so the S12 has to go.

1989 (F) Nissan Silvia ZX Turbo 1.8 CA18ET

10 Months MOT, 5 Months Tax
Full Service History, as seen in pictures!
Huge number of Nissan receipts.

Recently Manual Converted
New Copper Mix S13 Clutch
New Slave & Master Cyl with braided line
Walbro 255 Fuel Pump, with high amp wiring.
Custom 2.75" Turbo Back Exhaust
Stack 30Psi Boost Gauge
"bren device" Boost Controller
Uprated Turbo, no play, with receipts.
Recent MAF replacement
Nearly new front tyres.

Alongside these headline items, I have removed and cleaned most of the car at one point or another, including dash (to do clutch pedal), intake and exhaust system. Much of the important pipework and wiring has been replaced with silicone/high grade where needed to keep the car running sweet and safe.

The shell is mostly rust free, it has some previous patches and one rear arch has been treated and sprayed but doesn't look quite perfect.

As for problems, it has one or two but nothing serious at all.
The idle is low when it is cold, as the regulator is stuck shut - so it can be a little lumpy until it warms up, I have the idle set to 850 to compensate.
The exhaust has snapped a bracket as sometimes knocks on the underside of the car, when it stops raining I will weld it back up!

Price is £1500, just as I bought it myself. I would ask more but these never get great money, I will be loosing more than £1500 at this price, but its not about making money! I don't have to sell quick, so the price is only a little wiggly.
