Exterior

This 1991 Nissan 240SX has been under the same ownership for approximately 20 years and has undergone a series of cosmetic and performance enhancements over that time. Originally finished in white, the car was first repainted in a metallic gray-gold hue before receiving its current baby blue finish, which was applied after the previous coat began to fade. Exterior modifications include a Nissan Silvia front-end conversion, featuring fixed headlights and a revised hood and bumper design.

 

The car rides on R32 Nissan GT-R wheels, and a rear spoiler was also added to complete the upgraded aesthetic. Paint condition is consistent with a driver-quality car, showing signs of use and age. Close-up images of the body panels and finish are provided in the gallery.

 

Interior

While the interior details are limited, the cabin is said to retain much of its original layout, with modifications primarily focused on the car’s exterior and powertrain. The 240SX interior offers a driver-centric cockpit with analog instrumentation, bucket seats, and a clean dashboard design. Additional information or photos of the interior would provide more insight into wear, trim condition, and any updates made under current ownership.

 

Performance & Maintenance

This 240SX has been swapped with a turbocharged SR20DET inline-four engine, a popular JDM performance upgrade sourced from the Nissan Silvia. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a manual transmission (not specified but assumed based on the SR20DET swap). The build was performed under the guidance of Sun Service Auto, a Southern California shop known for specializing in Japanese performance cars. The shop’s owner, a Nissan enthusiast with experience working on many 240SX builds, recommended and completed the installation of the Silvia front end, R32 GT-R wheels, engine swap, and spoiler.

 

Important Note: The car has a leak from the power steering rack, and the rack will need to be rebuilt or replaced. This mechanical issue is disclosed up front to ensure transparency for prospective buyers. Additional servicing may be required depending on buyer intent and use.

 

History & Documentation

The seller purchased the car approximately 20 years ago in stock form and has overseen all major modifications since. The car has lived in California under the current owner’s care, and all upgrades were professionally installed by Sun Service Auto, a shop specializing in Japanese imports and 240SX builds. While detailed service records are not noted, the owner can provide background on the build history and usage over the past two decades.

 

Offered with a clean title, this 1991 Nissan 240SX represents a long-term enthusiast-owned example with classic 2000s-style modifications, a desirable SR20DET swap, and a clean look inspired by the Silvia lineage. With some mechanical sorting, this S13 offers a great foundation for street use or continued project development.
