How much do you think i could get for my s13?

red_top_dan · May 23rd, 2005, 10:59 AM

let me start from the top: I have a 93 240sx, with a sr20det red top with 40k, i bought from a friend of mine about a month ago. The engine wiring harness was custom made and is messed up, it needs a new harness and is not running because of that. everything else in the car works perfect: power windows, lights, radio, ect... The only mods are: 3" downpipe, 3" test pipe, 3" Blitz Nur Spec cat back, cone filter, and also the silvia lsd. I'm getting tired of the car sitting in my driveway and my motivation to fix the car has passed. can anyone give me an estimate on how much i could expect to get for the car???

notice the top left: my wiring nightmare

Come on... all i'm looking for is a high-low estimate of what i could expect to get... help me out a little bit

dude, i would give it a good cleaning and then re-post pics. its hard to tell with all the grime and shit. the wiring is a fairly complicated job, but if everything else is working then i would say 3000 canadian as is. 2000 american. maybe less, maybe more. your saving grace is the pre swapped engine.

I'll give ya 2K Cash for it.

well, if you had the wiring right, id try for 5k, but since it doesnt run, youll maybe get 2500-3k

I might throw down 2 grand for it, only because it has the SR in there, but the wiring would definitely make me think twice about that. I would suggest $2000 obo, because I have had to deal with harness wiring on my 77 Datsun 280Z and they say that harness is "simple". Wiring es no bueno! $2,000, no more.

That's an 89-90 pignose, you sure it's a 93? You could probably get ~$2-3k.

I agree with it being a 89-90, not a 93. But yeah, I would only expect about 2,000 for it. Not many people want to deal with a wiring nightmare like that. The car looks in pretty good shape, but the engine shots don't do much for me. Clean it up some and re-post pics.

And my suggestion would be go out and buy a pre-fabbed wiring harness and sell it with the car. That would really help sell it, and then you could probably push 2,500-3,000...cause some people would run away not knowing where to get the parts and such, but if they're there, they might just bite...

I have a carfax report on the car, and it was in a minor front end collision in 2001. when the car was repaired the previous owner must have replaced it with the pignose, but i have checked the vin and it is a 93 for sure. The vin is JN1MS36P1PW306927 you can go to carfax and check it for free. Click For Carfax Mini Report

You asked for clean pics, here you go...

This is where the wiring was cut open

Here is a nice pic of the VIN same as the post above

fastassdx · Jun 2nd, 2005, 12:57 PM

how about $2300 cash?

matt_pound · Jun 7th, 2005, 11:37 PM

trust me youd be way better off parting it out, on ebay

red_top_dan · Jun 8th, 2005, 08:56 AM

i really dont need any more responds in this thread, the car has already been sold. i bought the car for $1000 and sold it for $1450, with no work done on my part, so i'm a little happy.

thanks though...
