Originally bought this for the s12 (same deal as a R33 wreck I recently sold, finally firmed up the s12's direction), was originally going to transfer everything over including engine/gearbox/brakes/subframes/AC/PS.

Unlicensed late model Nissan Silvia S14a.
98,000 km's on chassis
Engine: SR20DET (~120,000km on motor, no proof though as this was verbal)
Modifications: None! Car is rock stock, even has the stock airbox and SMIC. Will easily pass pits once the small issues are fixed.
Gearbox: S14 5 speed Manual, smooth changes.
Good tread on tyres all round.
Cold aircon, hot heater.
Exhaust has a nice tone (not too loud).

Classified as an economic repairable writeoff (engine and carpet replaced due to water damage), however no structural damage exists therefore have confirmed with a licensed inspection centre it will be easy to sign the repairs off, have receipts found in the car for the replacement of the motor in 2010 (as required for repair signoff). Zero rust on the car, It was a great buy however change of direction (again).

Currently has issues starting and needs the turbo/mani gasket replaced (I have a metal replacement gasket ready to go), in the process of diagnosing the starting issue as I'm prepared to go through the process of signing off the repairs (mechanical/electrical, not structural). VCT rattle is evident which is common for the S14/15 SR20DET's doesn't affect motor though (just noisey). Needs some globes replaced and some minor reverse light circuit diagnoses. Interior is complete as I have sourced everything that was missing when I purchased this.

Just installed a top of the range alarm system with remote central locking (as this was missing when I purchased), glass break sensors, headlights on at night etc. Will disclose all details to buyer with model of alarm system. I also inspected under the carpet and near the firewall to confirm the perfect condition of the chassis.

Essentially I'm posting this up to see if someone would be interested, otherwise I will continue going through the process of getting it registered (price then raised of course). Therefore get in now to diagnose and license yourself whilst it's much cheaper, will make a great daily.

$4500 firm and can deliver to your house. Will also consider swaps for a clean registered S13.
