RB Swapped 89 Coupe Big Mods!!!

Well as much as I hate to do it, it's for sale. I found a deal too good to pass up on a theft recovery 1995 S14 and it will become my next project. Here is what I've done to the car, I will add pics soon. I'm planning on keeping my wheels and including with the car a set of R32 16" Skyline wheels with brand new Yokohama AVS ES100 tires.

1989 Base model coupe-lightest model-manual windows and locks.
Motor and Bolt ons-1991 RB20DET swap from my company, RSImports, installed with 98,000km on it(60,700 miles). Installed new waterpump, timing belt and tensioner pulleys. I have new valve cover gaskets included, was planning to polish covers and install them.
-Custom turbo intake with HKS honeyomb style filter and velocity style adapter.
-Cheapturbo.com T3/T4 Hybrid Turbo Compressor .57 Trim, Exhaust .63 A/R, bought brand new. 310HP 13PSI max efficiency, 28PSI max boost. Internally wastegated.
-FMIC Core 21x9x3, bought brand new. Custom piping.
-3" custom mandrel downpipe, 80mm(3-1/4") Bullet Exhaust System
-Brand New Blitz BOV
-Apex-i SAFC-2
-Blitz Boost Guage Metric 1.5 Bar.
-Fuel Injectors 270cc stock, are maxed out, will be installing 450cc injectors and retuning this week.
-Skyline radiator-50% thicker than stock
-Brand new Walbro 255LPH pump, 300ZX filter.

Suspension and Drivetrain-Skyline R33 11" rotors and aluminum calipers, skyline R32 5 lug rear limited slip differential and axles. 5 lug conversion with aftermarket aluminum Cusco front hubs. Brand new 300ZX brake master.
-KYB adjustable shocks JDM models like AGX, with Tein SS springs, great balance of comfort and handling for a daily driver.

Body and Interior-Stock interior except SAFC mounted with custom bracket above rearview mirror, and cubby hole now holds boost guage in custom panel. Seats are in good shape, some wear on the drivers bolster but no holes or tears. Dash is pristine condition one tiny crack about 1/4" long next to passenger side vent where someone pryed out the vent. Aluminum pedal covers. A/C was removed everything else works great.

Silvia K's model front end conversion with rare non-projector headlights, excellent condition. Zenki style marker lights white/orange. All lights operational and wired in properly. Silvia K's emblems included for install once painted. Silvia rear valance(below trunk) with Silvia Badge.

Pioneer CD player, changer control capabilty, and some upgraded speakers, nothing special. Alpine alarm with keyless entry.
Silvia floor mats, near perfect condition.

Needs: Car is going to be bodyworked and primered or painted at buyers preference. Car was originally metallic dark red. Power steering is not installed, have pump and all hardware, hoses will need to be made. Windshield has one dime sized ding in it, no cracks.

This car is a beast, I am running 12 PSI right now the stock injectors are delivering enough fuel but are maxed out. I do not drag race and have not had the car dynoed, but I am SURE it will pull 12's in the 1/4 mile. I pull on our fastest SR swap in town (ran 14.0) by a huge margin. The RB20DET is based on the same block and crank as the RB25 and RB26, several companies even stroke these engines with RB25/Rb26 cranks and rods. My point is that this engine is bulletproof, and will hold about 400Hp with the stock headgasket, After that it's all boost and fuel. This is a good dependable car for daily driving, and is what I use it for. I get about 220-300 miles on a tank of premium. It doesn't start hard,or overheat, and runs very smoothly. The turbo boosts about 3000-3500RPM, I think just the right size. The car is not ricey and doesn't attract the eyes of johnny law, but will lay waste to most other cars on the road. One thing to say to you honda guys-traction

I am looking for $9,500, serious inquiries only. This is painted and ready to go. Stock clean S13's with stock SR20 swaps are liquid at $6,000 here, and this car has so much more done. I'm only selling it because I have a S14 that is crying for a RB25DET I will work on the price if you'd prefer to paint the car yourself, or want it with the stock turbo re-installed. SERIOUS inquiries only no trades.
