Up for auction here is a very clean 1989 240SX Hatchback car.  This car is in amazing condition, and is in total original condition.  This car has not been hacked up, modified or cut up in any way.  The motor does run, although it has a bad head gasket or cracked head as it is leaking water into the oil, and does not have much power.  If you are looking for a body and interior to do a SR20, RB25, or RB26 swap, then this is the perfect car to start with!!!!

It is a very rust free car on the underneath side, with only 3 places of concern, in the usual spots:  underneath the spoiler, and the two spots at the rocker seam on both sides (see pictures).  The frame rails and underneath is exceptionally clean of rust...again, see pictures.  This car has the original owners manual, what appears to be the factory floor mats (is missing the left rear), and still has the rear hatch interior cover (3 of the 4 mounts are broken though).  It does have the original donut spare and the original jack.  It is missing the handle and lug nut wrench.  The car has 159k miles on it, but you can't tell it from the interior.  The door panels are near perfect, and seats are near perfect, and the carpet is perfect.  The carpet may have been replaced, but it looks to be the original style, as it matches the glove box and door panels perfect.

The paint on the car appears to be original.  The car does not appear to have ever been wrecked, although the left door and quarter panel look like they have been repainted.  The steering wheel does show some wear (see pictures).  The rear hatch shocks need replaced, as they won't hold up the hatch.  There is something wrong with one part of the center console right behind the gear shift.  I think it must be missing a couple of pieces, but look at the pic and see what you think.  The dash does have several cracks in it. (See pics)

The body is not perfect, but is a very, very solid body for a 24 year old car.  Was a daily driver until the motor had problems.  Has the usual door dings and clear fade, as any 24 year old car would.  This car has the perfect original pitina if you are looking for an original 240 with nothing to hide.  It does have the rare chin spoiler, not sure if it is factory or not.  There is one spot on the left front lower fender and bumper area where it has been pushed out or in, but not a bad issue.  It is hardly noticeable.  

The car has the original teardrop wheels, but the tires are going to need replaced, as they have excessive dry rot and I would not recommend driving any distance on them.

The pop-up headlights work just as they should, and the retractable seat belts work as they should.  The A/C does not come on, but may be just a charge issue, as the compressor is free and turns by hand.

Nissan recalls 3,065 Pathfinders for transmission fluid leak

Thu, 24 Apr 2014

Nissan is recalling 3,065 units of the 2013 Pathfinder equipped with the CVT, due to a potential transmission fluid leak. On crossovers built from April 18, 2012 to October 3,2012 "inadequate clamping force" on the hose connected to the internal oil cooler can cause the hose to come loose and let fluid escape. A severe loss of fluid can cause the transmission to stop working properly.
The recall is the result of a safety investigation begun last September, when it was thought a recall could involve 110,000 units of the Pathfinder and Infiniti JX35. Asked for comment about how such a large number of vehicles potentially involved could end up with just 3,065 being recalled, Nissan rep Steve Yaeger told Autoblog that Nissan initiated a service campaign for the issue last year - a service campaign notifies owners to take their vehicles to the dealer for repair of "what is generally not a safety issue" - and that there was a "production improvement" that addressed the clamping issue. The service campaign included the vehicles being recalled, but the recall is limited to just those vehicles that were built before the production-line fix.
Nissan will begin informing affected owners next month, at which time owners can take their vehicles to dealers to have the hose clamp repaired. The press release below from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has more information.

Nissan sells 3,117 Leaf EVs in May, climbs over 3,000 for first time ever

Tue, Jun 3 2014

Chalk up a big win for the Nissan Leaf. In May, the world's most popular electric vehicle sold a record 3,117 units, the first time any pure electric vehicle has sold over 3,000 units in a month in the US (unless Tesla managed that feat but rolled the number into a quarterly report). This marks the 15th month in a row of record Leaf sales and the seventh where the Leaf was the top EV seller in the US. The challenge bar is set for someone to step up to compete with this all-electric wunderkind. Chevrolet did sell over 3,000 Volts once, in August 2013. The Leaf's one long-standing competitor, of a sort, is the Chevy Volt, which used to regularly outsell the Leaf but moved only 1,684 units in May. That's still an increase of 4.8 percent over 2013 but is part of a 4.5 percent decline in year-to-date Volt sales for 2014 compared to last year. The last time the Volt outsold the Leaf was October 2013. Chevrolet did sell over 3,000 Volts once, when it moved 3,351 in August 2013. Let's take another look at those 3,117 Leafs sold last month. They represent a 45.8 percent increase over May 2013, when 2,138 Leaf EVs were sold, so someone is doing something right in Japan and Tennessee. So far, Leaf sales in the US are up 36.4 percent year-to-date, to 10,389 EVs. That's just under half of the 2013 total, and it was accomplished in five months. In 2013, Nissan sold a total of 22,610 Leafs. Anyone want to hazard a guess where the total will be at the end of the year? As always, we'll have our detailed monthly sales write-up including other plug-in vehicles as well as hybrids and diesel car, up soon. For now, though, the big news is big Leaf sales. Read Nissan's press release below. Nissan Group reports May 2014 U.S. sales May 2014 May 2013 % Change Nissan Group Total sales (units) 135,934 114,457 +18.8 Nissan Division May sales 125,558 106,558 +17.8 Infiniti May sales* 10,376 7,899 +31.4 NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Nissan Group today announced total U.S. sales for May 2014 of 135,934 units, an increase of 18.8 percent over the prior year and a May record. Nissan highlights: Nissan Division set a May record at 125,558 sales in the month, an increase of 17.8 percent. This marks a monthly record for Nissan division in 14 of the last 15 months. May was the best-ever month for Nissan LEAF with 3,117 sales, an increase of 45.8 percent over the prior year. In May, LEAF passed 50,000 total U.S. sales since launch, further establishing it as the leader among electric vehicles.

2014 Nissan 370Z pricing announced, MSRP reduced by $3,000

Fri, 26 Jul 2013

Nissan is up to something. The company announced pricing for the 2014 Nissan 370Z, 370Z Nismo, and 370Z Roadster, which isn't out of the ordinary. What is, is that the standard, hardtop 370Z has received a $3,130 reduction in price for 2014. The upmarket Touring model, meanwhile, has been dropped $2,550.
That means, excluding the $790 for destination and handling, a base, six-speed manual 370Z is only $29,990. That is an excellent deal. Adding an automatic will bump the price to $31,290, while the Touring model starts at $35,270 for DIY shifters and $36,570 for autos. The top-of-the-range Nismo runs $43,020. The Roadster, meanwhile, starts at $41,470.
So what does this mean in the grand scheme? Automakers don't just slash $3,000 off the price of a desirable sportscar because they're feeling generous.Could this be a move to clear out stock before a replacement to the current Z arrives?
