For an LE dash it is not in a bad condition. That being said I am buying it to sit on it. This means I will have 3 car's with LE interiors, and 2.5 full interiors as spares in my garage.

Here we have a fine example of a clean suzuki cappuccino. Covering just over 34k kilometers this car is in AMAZING shape, body is true and straight with no repairs, paint is clear of any flaking or peeling and shines flawlessly. Turbo spools as it should, no breaking up! Car drives straight and true doesn't pull or wobble and everything functions as it should with no issue. Car was imported legally with customs paperwork on file. All this car needs is a new owner!


Exterior:
-Paint 8.5/10
-Body 9/10
-Hard top and rear glass work flawlessly
-T tops remove with no issues
-Hid headlights

Interior:
-Momo steering wheel with short hub.
-Pioneer jdm radio
-Pioneer door speakers
-Driver bolster shows a bit of wear, rest of interior is 8/10 leather is otherwise clean.

Mechanical:
-Timing belt done at 30,000 kilometers.
-spark plugs done 100 miles ago.
-Transmission and differential fluid done at 30,000 km.
-Turbo doesn't make any noise or have any shaft play.
-Motor is all original to chassis with 34k kilometers.
-Jasma Exhaust with downpipe
-New fuel pump and fuel filter 100 miles ago.
-Greddy coilovers.
-OZ wheels with
-Rays lug nuts
-80% thread Dunlop tires matching.
-5 speed manual transmission shifts flawlessly.


This car was imported legally and all paperwork is included. Asking $10,000 obo bring me an offer and take it home. Be reasonable as importers sell these at $12k+ for higher mileage vehicles. This car is a mechanically perfect and would be a great toy to add to any collection. ONLY CALL OR TEXT IF YOU HAVE CASH. NOT INTERESTED IN TRADES

I wonder if the washer bottle cap is cracked. I can't ever find a replacement for mine.

The combination is in excellent condition and has very minimal shaft play. Feel free to contact me with any additional questions! Text preferred, 8Six4 SevenTwoThree 0four8three

EDIT: Whoops, forgot this: Artech in Seneca, SC

Cool.

Saved it to PDF. Don't think that's right but at least it's saved forever.

Looks like a 4BT swap... I've considered this for our Bronco, but the only real benefit is fuel mileage. Towing anything large with a Bronco is stupid, and a turbo diesel is of questionable benefit for wheeling.




That Mig has been for sale there for a couple of years, IIRC. I would assume the costs to keep it airborne are significant! A while back I got a close look at a Mig 21 at our local airport... what a POS! You couldn't have paid me to fly in the thing...

Count the valve covers, it's a 6.

But I totally agree otherwise. Not the right vehicle for a cummins swap. Now, a Tahoe or Suburban, on the other hand....

Still cool.

My bad... missed the one under the camera shadow...

I jumped, 'cause the 4BT is a more popular swap for packaging purposes and weight.

Also, the 4BT sucks.
There are many other diesels that I would swap before that old paint shaker.

Tip: if you ever do get a 400, make sure the starter motor has already been replaced.

Because I can't make specific cars magically appear for sale on my local craiglist? I don't think I've ever seen a manual SC300 for sale locally, so if I'm getting a slushbox, I at least want the big motor.

Realistically, I'll keep driving my Sentra until it completely falls apart or I kill the engine...this is mostly just an exercise in finding semi-interesting cheap cars on cl.
