Re: should Iż?

Looks like he wants more then $12,500 for it. Personaly I would stay away. You dont know how good of a job the person who did the swap did to this car. I would also be very wary to any car being sold with a body kit like that. I'm not going to get into a longwinded ricer type rant but from what I have seen if it has a tacky body kit its almost garrentied to have been abused.
would an rb25 even pass emissions? I know parts would be a pain in the rear to get since they never sold cars that came with those engines in the states..
Still though, anything over 6grand for a 89 240sx that isnt perfectly mint seems like WAY too much in my opinion.
Do a carfax(or ask someone on some msg board to do one fore you) and get as much info as you can. Check the car out if you can or maybe you can ask someone on some automotive message board with a majority of posters that are located near northhills Cali to check it out and give you the 4 1 1...
Good Luck.

i highly doubt the ability of that car. look how old everything is, including the engine. i agree that type of bodykit woud not be in the interest of someone who would put that engine in it. you can get a much more reliable and fun car for the money.

i personally stay away from pre-modified cars. i like to watch the car progress from stock to beastly. i'll bet that things fun to drive though

good choice...

and to comment on that 240sx, looks like its been through hell. looks like that painted themselves with spray cans from auto-zone. really the only thing you would be buying that car for is the chasis and drivetrain...and for that kind of money, not worth it.
