hey, i have the option to buy the 240sx in the attached picture from an insurance salvage auction, does anybody reconize it? or know the story with it? it seems to have a SR20 non-turbo engine swap in it, but it is missing all the suspension and most of the interior,

seems to have been involved in a front end colision.

possibly a theft recovery of a project in the works?

any info would be great,

depends how much you looking at for it.

if your thinking of fixing this its going to need a lot of work...frame looks like its bent quite a bit

engine might be good to swap into another but you can get some sr20 turbos for a fairly decent price now

that car has an S14 lsd still in it with the 5 bolt axles, and it's KA24DE swap. Has 255lph fuel pump from when it had an SR20DET in it, and umm... shit, I know there is more but I can't remember. 3" test pipe, and electric fan with thermo switch, and.... shit. Memory sucks.

Oh yeah, there was NO RUST UNDERNEATH!

not that it's really useful anyway.

I know there's something really expensive that I forgot to take out when I traded.

thanks for the info, why does the engine look different from the other 240SX?

is the engine / transmission in the car any good?

I don't think putting the owners name is a good idea. Like I told you, I owned that car before the last owner.

It has a KA24DE engine, which is still good just like the transmission. The clutch needs to be changed.

If you need to ask any questions just ask me. Throwing someones name on the internet won't help anything.
