    Default 1989 240sx hatch DOHC swap

    okay so i have a s13 hatch converted to dohc with less than 110k miles on the motor.it came out of a 95 i believe. it has a custom push button start.it has a welded diff and JIC-FLTA2S coilovers with less than 200 miles.front and rear strut bars and gutted interior from the front seats back but i can include the back seats.no power steering,a/c, or heat(just needs a heater core).no radio or center vents.DOES INCLUDE PIGGY LIP.o and there is a small dent in he passenger rocker panel but it can easily be covered up with aftermarket sideskirts.im sure im missing something but ill update if i remember. now on to the pics.
    oh and im just trying to see what i can get but since i have to have a price lets just say 4000 obo.

    heres a few of it before.it no longer has the rims. it just has steelies.




    new exhaust vv





    heres some new pics after the coilovers



    and heres some comparison so you can see pre and post coilover height
    before:

    after:

    and heres some info on the motor:
    The motor came out of a 95 S14. The S14 it came from was an Auto that got rear ended while sitting at a redlight. The motor at the time had 99,9xx miles on it. Ive put about 4-5k miles on it since, Oil has been changed twice.

    Headgasket was replaced shortly before i got this motor, and i also found a receipt for the piston rings being replaced. Machine shop reciepts and all. Also the head was very very very clean. Before purchasing this motor i ran a compression test and it was 180 across the board.

    When doing the swap the following things were replaced with brand new parts:
    Water Pump
    Every Single Gasket
    Newish OEM Ignitor
    All Belts
    Starter
    PCV Valve
    Every Vacuum Line that was stiff or cracked

    Also on the motor:
    K&N Filter with a Injen Intake
    Alternator was changed 2 months before the swap
    New clutch

    Once i replaced my fuel pump this motor has not given me a single issue! Revs smoothly and pulls hard. I would bet money thats its faster than an NA SR w/VVT. Without hesitation I would slap a turbo on this an rock that, Thanks for looking!
