What's (probably) wrong with this car? Anonymous 2016-09-19 20:10:30 Post No. 15850989 [Report]

I'm about to get this for a pretty good price. 1990 Nissan 240sx with a 24KAe with 150k miles on it. Here's what this guy says is keeping it from running:
Battery isnt hooked up, fuel rail and injectors are out, air intake tube and filter are out, valve cover is missing bolts, and throttle line is not attached to throttle body.
He's throwing in a new battery, oil, and new 550cc injectors. I figure he's not just letting this go because he doesn't want to hook everything back up. What do you figure was wrong with it?

A retard is working on it. That's the issue with most 240s.

Do you know if an SR will just fit with the tranny that's in there?

The chassis actually seems in pretty good condition, except the trunk gas big rust holes where some dipshit took off the spoiler and left the holes bare

If you can't find an RB25 to dump in this is the go-to swap.
