My 240
Just picked this up today.
96 240SX SE Auto
Leather interior
White gauges
148,000 miles
$4300
In spite of the miles on it, the engine and the tranny still feel very strong.
It's got a few problems. It's got a warped brake rotor. The brake pedal feels like it binds a little bit. The throttle sticks closed. The tachometer jumps up and down when the engine is at 3300 to 3500 rpm. I'm pretty sure it's just the needle motor that's messed up. The camber on the front is only in spec by a fraction. The rear is in spec but the setting is maxed out. The trunk rattles as well.
Other than that it rides straight and true.
I'll be doing a 5 speed swap on it very soon, hopefully.
If anybody has any insight or suggestions on fixing the camber problems or the tachometer problem, please speak up.
Thanks!

or its a fake "SE" sign. people do it a lot lately to fool other people.
maybe it was hit in the back before, and the guy just bought the SE sign... cause you never know.
and i believe that the SE models never came out with automatic trannies. am i wrong?
