Heavily modified 90 Maxima --GREAT DEAL

I am selling the Max. You can check out my cardomain page to see pics

http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2091707

She was involved in a fender bender in April. I have replaced the fender and any other parts that were damaged, except the door. To be complete and showable, she needs some minor work on the door, a windshield, and paint.

Here is a chance to get all the parts you ever wished for at once!!

Blehmco suspension parts
Sprint lowering springs
Brembo cross-drilled rotors
Fiber Images carbon fiber hood
BMW E36 headlight conversion
Skyline R33 taillight conversion
Warpspeed 2.5" exhaust and cold air intake
Alpine stereo with Polk speakers
The list goes on and on

The engine and the transmission both have less than 10,000 miles on them.

The taillight conversion alone cost more than I am asking!

Car is garage kept and has never seen snow, no rust.

Why so cheap?

The fuel pump (Walbro 255). Once running, no problem. At start up, problem. There is a sensor or relay that is hindering the pump at start up. I have changed the pump, both relays, and the distributer(crank angle sensor). Pump could very easily be hardwired and you would have an awesome car. Quite frankly, I am more interested in my other car and don't care anymore.

interested

I'm interested in your car. Could you please email pics of the damage to beaulesch@yahoo.com? Is the car driveable in its current condition or would I need to trailer?

I will try to take pic this weekend or early next week. Yes car is driveable, just hard to start. Trailer would be best choice.

Wow! I love your car. I am trying to do the same type of mods on my Silver '89 Max. I would love to buy your car and switch over all the mods I don't have yet, but that wouldn't be cost effective since I'm in Florida. Would you be willing to part it out? I can send you a list of the specific parts I am interested in and we can see if we can work out a deal. Thanks.

Is this necessary? Please keep comments about actually purchasing the car or to yourself.

And parting it out would be costly for you and time consuming for me.

Well, since we can't get R34 or earlier Skylines over here anymore, nor could we ever get the 4dr. Skylines here, what would you do to have a car that looks like (~almost) and pays homage to those Skylines, yet stays within a reasonable budget!?

It may not be a GT-R, but both cars are Nissan and both are very cool, so what's the problem?

I will leave this on here for one month before putting it out to the rest of the world. I figured I would give the .org guys a chance first. This is many of the modifications many have said they want, already done. It would cost around $20K to buy everything I have done, and even more to have it installed.

I have a buddy who wants a car like this. Now, all I have to do is convince him to get this one and then see about trading with him

What would auto shipping be to Florida, 32615?

20K+ to replicate? Maybe I overlooked about 15K worth of "mods", but how does it come close to 20K? Oh, Mark, shipping runs about 750. If your pal does come up with the cash PM me and I'll give you a few transport numbers I use.

Check out the cardomain page that I have listed
http://www.cadomain.com/ride/2091707

go to page two
and price everything listed
plus engine rebuild
and trans rebuild
and labor

I didn't get group deals or use cheap ebay parts.

Yah, good question. I was wondering that myself. Maybe with all the engine/tranny swap and such.

there are two other 90 maximas on here for sale. One for $600 and one for $700. Both are stock.

You can buy one of them and add the Blehmco parts and WSP exhaust and you would have spent more than $2000. Or rebuild the trans and spend more than $2000. Or the engine.

What gives?

What you are saying is true. I think we just were wondering at the $20,000 dollar number and thinking that it looks a bit high considering you don't have much more than bolt-ons on the car (in terms of performance). So, yes. I guess most of the cost is in the labor and engine/tranny replace/rebuild. Maybe the custom taillights, etc.

No, problems. Just getting clear.

BTW, I'm still interested. I just don't personally have the cash right now. If I come up with it or know someone who wants it, I'll let you know.

Thanks,
Mrkanda

I don't mind the questions. I am not trying to hide anything. My cardomain page lists most of what I have done. I welcome anyone to price it all. I think the price I am offering is a steal. If no one buys it I will keep it. I will not lower a price that is honestly too low now. I am frustrated and willing to part.

What on a car is not "bolt on"? A car is basically bolted together.

Never mind. My comments weren't meant to offend you. I'm sorry if you were offended. I was just trying to understand the $20K figure, not the current price. $2000 is more than reasonable.

I hope you sell it soon!

I have had a few offers to buy the CF hood. I am not parting out the car.

A new CF hood will cost about $500. For just $1500 more you get Blehmco suspension parts, WSP exhaust, a new engine, a new tranmission, an Alpine CD player, Polk speakers, A UR underdrive pulley, Nology wires, a Optima red top battery, and a whole bunch more, all in a rust free car with a clean interior.

This is the deal of the century.

If you are basing your thoughts on the trans you are looking at it wrong. Look at all you are getting and at what price. Price all of the parts that are included then look at the whole. Don't listen to all of the org. morons that say autos are not good. there is a reason that almost all drag cars are autos, they are faster. Don't listen to all org. morons that say VE over VG. There is a reason that Nissan used the VG as a race motor, there is a reason that Nissan used the VG for 22 years, there is a reason that Nissan used the VG to supercharge not the VE. It is a better engine. VE fans look at only HP and not torque. Torque wins races. The VG puts out more torque at lower RPM (where it is useful) than the VE does.

Here is a chance to get many desirable parts for very little money.

Truth is, whether you agree with what I say the cost is or not doesn't matter. Go to the cardomain page, price all that I have done, you will find that the price I am asking is a bargain. If you don't like the auto, fine, use all of the other parts, you will still come out ahead. There is no way to lose on this deal. I have litterally thousands invested and I am only asking for $2000. Where is there a problem? WSP exhaust $600, Blehmco suspension $600, Fiber Images hood $500. That is $1700 alone there so much more there.

I am still looking for a buyer.

If you just want a CF hood, warpspeed exhaust, UR underdrive pulley, and Blehmco suspension parts. Add to that an alpine stereo with Polk speakers, Sprint springs, Addco RSB, ST FSB, and many other new-ish parts including trans and engine.

This is a bargain at double what I am asking. I will even consider negotiating, just don't insult me.

Very good price for what you're getting. Basically a new car with low mileage and most of the necessary work done (outside of door, windshield, paint & fuel pump).

Bump and good luck.

thank you for noticing. Actually the fuel pump is new (plus two new back up pumps). I wish more would understand as you do. But apparently most want something for nothing.

I will say once again, I am not parting out. If you want a carbon fiber hood, Blehmco suspension, or any other mods...buy the car. The price will be worth it.
