Price: $3500 obo

Selling my old track car so that somebody can get her back out there and have some fun. I've been holding onto it for years b/c I haven't really had a plan, so I'm facing reality since it doesn't get driven now, I've got a baby on the way, and I just don't need it - it's time for me to say goodbye. It's a solid and proven platform, car is in great shape and tastefully modified (especially when compared to a lot of 240s out there), and just needs some TLC from somebody who has time for it.

 

Here's the goods:

-Piper Motorsports rollbar

-KYB AGX shocks

-Tein S Tech springs

-front & rear strut tower braces

-Z32 300zx brake master cylinder

-Z32 300zx front and rear brakes

-Z32 300zxTT front and rear wheels (225/50/16 and 245/45/16 respectively)

-5-lug conversion

-LSD (Infiniti J30)

-Sparco Ultra seat

-2 sets of G-Force 5-pt harnesses (both installed)

-polyurethane transmission mount

-Centerforce dual friction clutch

-JWT intake

-Pacesetter header

-Recent maintenance (past month) includes: oil change, new PS belt, new alt belt, new battery

-extensive records of all work done since purchased in March 2004

-most recent numbers were: 129 HP, 132 torque, 2,690lbs with a 140lb driver

-extra set of Z32 300zx front and rear wheels

-front & rear Progress adjustable sway bars (not installed)

-comes with a Sparco driver's seat mount as well

 

Baddies:

-it's got an exhaust turndown around where the driver's elbow is, so it's pretty loud. Awesome at first, but not so much after your ears hurt. It's fine for the track if you're packing some ear plugs, but if you're gonna drive on the street you should invest in an exhaust (EBay can take care of you for <$200).

-honestly, if you really care about looks then you'll say this needs some paint work. The top is fading bad, the PS mirror is blue from a parts car (mirror was cracked on the original one), there's a dent in the 1/4, there's a hole where the antenna was (it's taped over and the car has been covered in a barn for the past 3 years so no water has gotten in, but if you're painting it you should glass/bondo over it for good), and the PS door is green from a different parts car (replacing door was easier than replacing broken window regulator when I was 22). I've noticed a very small amount of surface rust that needs to get nipped in the bud.

-engine lopes and doesn't want to idle until it is warmed up. It's done this for a long time and has never really bothered me b/c it still starts right up and runs/drives fine. Just providing full disclosure.

-needs a passenger seat

-I've tried to make it as light as I could, so there aren't really any amenities left. If you're looking to make into a daily driver or something, this car has a lot of work ahead.

 

Future potential:

Considering the mods done, I think it's a good starting point for anybody. It's fun to autoX and learn the ropes for the track, and I think it's relatively unmolested and a blank canvas for you to make your own and develop. If you're going out just to have fun and learn for now, then it's just right like it is (although a little slow on the long straights).

If you wanted to go for NASA Time Trial, the car's base is TTF** and in it's existing state you would be in TTE (assuming a race weight of 2700#) with 3 points left for modification. The tires on the car are killing you here; taking your rears down to some sticky street 225s to match the front size would give you another valuable 6 points to work with elsewhere. (taking all 4 tires down to 215s will get you another point)

 

 

Price is negotiable within reason. Delivery can be arranged as well. If you are interested, please email me at 93anthracite AT gmail.com

Thanks for looking!
