Hey thanks for looking at my 1993 Nissan 240SX SE Hatchback.
This car has got problems that need to be fixed before I can do any kinds of real mods to the car. I'm going to list what is all wrong with the car here and then my plans for mods after.
Problems with the car
01.) Transmission only has 5th gear and reverse.
(This has been fixed with a transmission swap from a 1991 Nissan 240SX Hatchback that I had laying around in the garage.) The idiot put automatic transmission fluid into the manual transmission. which blewout the 2nd gear snychro and when he did it the parts got wedged in and locked 1st-4th gears only thing it had was 5th and reverse.
02.) Knock Sensor:
Already bought this and just needs to be installed. I just never have done this before so I would like to do this with someone that knows what they are doing. I'm getting Error Code 34 on Using Nissan Consult.
03.) Brakes Replaced:
I already have the brand new rotors and pads. I just need help with putting them on. I let my stepfather help me and he broke a bolt so we stopped. We will need to drill (easy out) the broken bolt out first. I also need to find replacement set of bolts for the driver caliper basically all are missing now.
04.) Front bumper & Fenders fixed.
The front bumper sags and the drivers fender keeps getting crunched in the door. So I removed the Fender to stop more damage. When I started to remove the bumper I noticed that the bumper support wasn't connected to anything. the bumper support is bent and one bolt is snapped and the other it twisted. so I stopped.
05.) Underbody Neons Removed:
I have clipped the wires to the neons and have most of them already removed but I want to make sure I have it completely removed them. There is some wires left hanging.
06.) Stereo:
when I bought the car it just had a empty hole for the radio. I have a installed a new kenwood radio and it finally works perfectly.
07.) Speakers:
when I bought the car he had 6 speakers wired into the car wiring, 2 in the doors, 2 in the rear seats, and 2 in the rear hatch/trunk. i have remove the speakers in the rear seats but i have a hole where he cut them to fit speakers where no speakers was designed to fit.
08.) Muffler: I need to buy a new muffler was thinking just buying one of the $30 generics from autozone/advance auto for the time being to get rid of the muscle car sound. reminds me of like a camaro/mustang sound.

09.) Missing Bolts:
Interior Trim, Center Console, bottom of Hatch (where wing bolts are), interior of hatch (where taillight screws are). fender bolts, bumper bolts,
10.) Automatic Seatbelt:
the auto seatbelt doesn't work it just stays put in the door closed position.
11.) Door Panels:
The tweed trim fabric has got to go, I need to replace some of the panel clips,
12.) Rear Seat Trim Panels:
I need to replace the rear seat trim panels with new ones so I don't have holes that was cut to fit speakers.
13.) Power Doors:
The car had power windows, and power locks, but for some reason the idiot past owner decided to cut the wires and install manual doors.
14.) AutoLoc:
Don't know what this is but I know I want it gone since it doesn't seem to serve a purpose in my car.
If someone wants to help me with this I could buy you some beers or something for your time. I have a set of Stanley tools, torque wrench, floor jack, two jack stands, one man brake bleeder tool, disc brake tool set, 1/2" breaker bar, and a few other things but thats about it really.
