The time has come to replace this project with another Nissan, as much as I loved this car I want to get something a bit more comfy.
I'm willing to sell this car as a whole the way it sits or part everything out.
I'll try to be as detailed as possible, no bullshiting around.
Its a 1974 260z with molded in flares and built sr20det swap. Last time i had the car dynoed it put down 418whp on dyno dynamics and that was only at 20psi. The hot side is a bit small and adding boost did nothing for us.
What the car needs:
Paint and body:
Its painted BMW titanium silver now, but there are some rust spots now. One of the rear flares has some damage, nothing that cant be easily fixed by a body shop. rear hatch has some cracks around the lock and lock itself is broken. Shes been sitting in a garage for about a year and key has gone missing. Last time i drove the car was early 2012 before i started removing all interior tar/sound deadening which is mostly gone now.
Rails were redone by Vinny from destruction warehouse.
She really needs paint to shine again =)
Interior:
I removed 99% of 40 year old sound deadening, so I don't have the carpet as I was planning on replacing it with a new one.
I have 350z black cloth seats that were in the car before.
Dash was made out of aluminum by autowerks. I don't have a rollbar anymore that might be on some of the pictures. Heater works but there is no a/c
Motor:
Everything works, but I dont have aem ems anymore, so the car doesnt have ems at all(this is why I lowered the price from previous price of 8k).
There is a good deal on series 2 ems on zilvia website in electronics sections, 899 for a brand new one.
With ems and base map installed You can just drive off from my driveway, it would take less then 20 minutes to install it.
It basically has new motor that isnt even broken in yet, about 200 miles on the bottom end and maybe a 1000 on most other things. Motor was build by Project X Customs
Tune was done by ILL garage.

I emailed them to get some more info and I was told that these are discontinued for quite a long time now, have magnesium centers and are very rare these days. In past 3 years Ive only seen one other set for sale and one set on Adam Carollas Datsun - Adam Carolla's Garage Photo Gallery - Autoblog
They were re finished by wheels of america 2 years ago, which included new powder coat and polish but since the car has been sitting they need a re-polish.
They are 3 piece. 15x8 front and 15x9 rear, zero offset from what I know.

Renault planning a Tata Nano rival. Again.
Wed, 28 Nov 2012Four years ago, Renault confirmed that it would partner with India's Bajaj Auto to develop a rival to the Tata Nano. At the time, as everyone waited for the Tata Nano to arrive, you could have used a Richter scale to measure the tremors the executive suites of any automaker with an interest in the low end of emerging markets. Then the Nano, still the cheapest car in the world, didn't sell so well - at the end of last year its sales were just six percent of its most conservative projections - and everyone seemed content to let Tata spend the money to figure out if there really was a market for the cheapest car in the world.
Renault believes there is, kind of. Automotive News Europe reports that it will partner with Nissan to build two low-priced cars for emerging markets, one for €3,000 ($3,888 U.S.) and another for €5,000 ($6,400 U.S.). The price of the least expensive offering is nearly $1,400 more than a Nano, which costs $2,500, and that can't be considered a small sum in comparison. But one of the hindsight knocks on the Nano has been that even in emerging markets buyers don't want a car whose biggest lure is that it is cheap; they'd rather give their aspirations a bit more of a workout.
Renault's offerings are scheduled to hit the non-Western market in late 2014, which is coincidentally the same year that will see the return of the budget-minded and emerging-market-specific Datsun nameplate. They'll be built in Renault facilities in Chennai, India, with no mention made of Bajaj this time around.
Malaise Era All-Stars
Fri, 17 May 2013A few weeks ago, we bid a fond happy 40th anniversary to the automotive dark ages of 1973-84 that have come to be known as "The Malaise Era" - the performance ice-age when 160 horsepower was a lot and a 0-60 time of under 10 seconds was remarkable. Like music in the 1980s, everything in automobiledom didn't suck, however. There were a few bright spots. Here are five of our favorites:

Datsun to unveil second model later this month
Sun, 08 Sep 2013Datsun, Nissan's new sub-brand for emerging markets, has announced plans to unveil its second model. Its first, the Go, was unveiled almost two months ago, and promised affordable, connected motoring for five in a handsome hatchback body. Datsun is following that up with a pair of new models for Indonesia.
The first of these two new vehicles will be shown on September 17 in Jakarta, eschewing the typical auto show debut. It's targeted at so-called "risers," the nickname for a group of highly aspirational customers in the Indonesian market. Datsun developed it locally with help from Nissan, and it'll cost under 100 million Indonesian rupiah (about $8,900 at today's rates).
We'll have the full boatload of information on the newest member of the Datsun family when it debuts on September 17. Scroll on to read the full press release from Datsun.
