remember that engine is ****ed... if your timing belt breaks you usually bend valve and score pistons. its nice and clean but just think like your buying a shell with a blown motor.

I can tell you one thing about Z32's... they suck duck *****!
I used to own a 92... runs great when it runs, but once one thing breaks, something else will follow shortly. Its basically a Nissan badged BMW, nothing works right once it goes bad.
And for the $, I'd say 2J an S14 (or S13) with an R154 tranny. Now that thing would fly.

DO NOT BUY FROM OSAKA.
Terrible. I've heard countless bad reviews and my friend Andy got his motor from them, took 6 months to get the problems resolved. sadly the new replacement motor wasn't all that great either.

well after looking over everything it turns out i dont have as much "toy funds" as i thought i did, so i think i might just try to trade that firebird i have just sitting taking up space for a 240 or an old supra

i would buy that car for 2 grand max. i think 3500 is too much. if he was closer to me i would take that thing off his hands and build it up.
i think you would be better off finding a non turbo Z to do a rb swap because TT owners always seem to want more than their worth
