You never find '90s Nissan 240SX's in good condition! This one needs work, but not by the CAR WIZARD 

240SXs didn't come with sunroofs. The sunroof was an option. There are more SE models without sunroofs than models with sunroofs. I used to work at Nissan Motor Corp back when these were new and owned a 1989 XE coupe (cherry red, manual), and a 1992 SE coupe (black, automatic).. Both had HUD and the sunroof. He's right about the dashboards cracking. Also, Nissan makes really good AC systems.

Man, I'm so glad I still have my 1990 hatch still after 21 years. I had it gutted and caged back in the day, but luckily i kept all the original interior panels and parts. Im now in the process of converting it back to a miled mannered street car for my son's soon to be first car. Never would have imagined

Just sold one for a friend about 3 months ago, she was headed to a assisted living home, health issues. When I asked her how much, she thought $1500 was too high but would take $ 1000. I placed in on Craigslist Portland and got $6000 with a dozen calls the same day I sold it.. It was complete with a few spots of primer and ran great with 120k on the odometer. She was thrilled and surprised when I handed her all that money, I didn't take a penny BTW. So I wouldn't be surprised to see Danielson get more than he's asking especially after finishes up the repairs.

I had a 1998 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX. Kind of wish I still have it. Those 90s Japanese sporty cars were so much fun.

Got to drive the Nissan 200SX in New Zealand as a traffic patrol car.... SR20DET, auto trans. It was so "undercover" that in one nightshift three burglars were caught in seperate events running away from burglaries...no one suspected it to be Police at all.... On a Sunday drive on the motorway it was like fish in a barrel as the Mercedes and BMW drivers would cut you up "challenging" you...... We had that unbeatable accessory fit out...the blue and red hidden lights and the siren. A genuine 140mph car...so much fun..... The detectives got jealous and the car had to go.....

Ugh! I had a 1992 convertible 240SX that I bought on eBay and had shipped from Arizona for $4200 with only 86,000 miles. I kept it for ten years, did a few minor mods and sold it to a marine at Camp LeJeune for $4200 about 6 years ago. I wished I'd held onto it as it was a blast. All the convertibles were automatics but this one was in superb condition. I still miss it.

I have a 180sx. As i live in Australia, Have had it for 10 years now. Love the car. It is high maintenance but to me after driving it it's all worth it. Cool to see the American version of it on your channel! And a nice stock condition one aswell!

I have that same car with 240k miles one it. 100% stock. Paid $500 for it about 5 years ago.

I had an 1989 Nissan SX Coup model in black with the tear drop wheels. Such a great handling car.

Was watching JR camping in the Aztek last night. He said that you can never find clean 240SXs for sale anymore. Here's you go!

Greatest drift car ever made, bro. I wish Nissan could just keep making this body style at an affordable price.

Had a '93 red SE hatchback. Had a glass pop-up sunroof where as the coupes usually came with an electric sliding one if I remember. The hatchbacks could also come with the "Super HICAS" 4 wheel steering from the 300Z at the time - mine had it. One of THE best handing cars I have ever owned - and I've owned a bunch. The engine (155 HP) was just OK, definitely not a high rev motor, but decent performance. Couple that with rear wheel drive and a stick and it was truly a point and shoot traffic dodging machine. Have very fond memories of it and never game me a bit of trouble.

Daniel San this is a really hard to find quality rear wheel drive car as you well know! It reminds me of the Datsun 510 sedans that were around in the early 1970's. They had an independent rear suspension when most cars, except for European performance cars, had solid axles.

God this brings back memories. My first car was a 93 S13 coupe in super white just like this one. To this day I still regret selling it. I’m not in a good spot to make Daniel an offer for this car, but I hope to own another someday.

Those cars were thrashed back in the day. A friend's mom had one that we tortured. Tough car. The 90s-era was Nissan's heyday.

Northern Florida can also have 60-degree (Fahrenheit) swings of temperature in a day. Occasionally. Probably more likely in Kansas.

Very clean and not much rust at all wow

Mrs. Wizard in regards to the backseat: "I don't know who would fit". 11-year-old me Mrs. Wizard. I fit, back in 1991 in our 1991 240sx. Fond memories of riding in that hole back there while my parents blasted Phil Collins.

Headliner glue or just contact adhesive that can take your weather is from dap brand and it's called Landau top adhesive. It's in a white and blue can. Can be sprayed or brushed on

I was a salesman at a Nissan dealership back in 1991. The notchback version was always my favorite.

rear subframe bushings look a lil shot.- front main seal is leaking plus that oil sending unit along with the high pressure power steering line. change the rear main when you do the clutch. nice car tho. sucks someone stole your chuki fender extension those things are hard to find.

I had this exact car in High School. Lots of fun times in that car!

Had a '90 240SX SE Fastback in charcoal gray that I owned for 12 years. It was my first rear drive car. I swapped in an SR20DET engine and added full bolt ons and a tune. Knew the car inside and out as I learned and worked on it myself during that time frame. Of all the cars I owned, I probably miss this one the most. Car was very quick, and handled excellent. Back in the early 2000s, you would surprise a lot of people with it, as they could easily run down into the low 13 second 1/4 mile range with the basic setup I had. Back then, there were so many to choose from, now they are a rare breed, as most of them have been grabbed up for racing, drifting, or project cars.

My friends family had one that 3 generations of kids drove to high-school. That thing was indestructible. I had a 95 maxima & I was always jealous of the 240.

I had the 86 RX7 TURBO... fun through the curves of Central NY !! also, a 1990 Nissan FairladyZ turbo..

Very similar to mine! I have a '93 SE Liftback with just over 63k miles, with optional leather seats.

I loved these cars also. Including the little 200sx. I wanted a 200sx notchback so bad back in the day. Especially the convertible conversion. These cars are a goldmine. Tuner Hoonigan drifter etc etc.🤑🤑🤑🤑😎😎❤❤

My first new car purchase was a 1990 240SX SE fastback, gray with a 5-speed. The car that I wanted, but couldn’t afford, when I bought it was a Porsche 944 (which I now own). The only two failures I had with the car were a bad window regulator and I had to replace the transmission. Fun car, despite the truck engine. I had mine for over ten years.

I miss these. The coupes have a distinct look. The hatch was also popular back in the day. Very nice car

I really miss my 92 SE. That car was so comfortable to drive.

Man this makes me miss my 240. I had a 91 SX SE hatchback I bought off a friend when I was 18 as a graduation gift to myself. It was in great shape and I wish I had kept it. Mine had the sunroof, but it didn't have the heads up display

I still remember the commercial for these... they used a hydraulic piston to lift the car and "road" surface up to advertise it's road holding!

Good to see normal cars ... and not just exclusively Lamborghini and Bentley. Keep em up.

That spider was so calm for the camera! If Mrs. Wizard was behind the camera, she is a trooper! Thank you both so much for giving my own wife and I constant calm content to sip our morning coffee's to! ❤️

Other than regular car reviews cuz they do a ride along segment Iike how yall do a walk around and interior go thru and a walk under of alotta iconic but just run of the mill rides... I mean you obviously are a car enthusiast channel but the way you go over basically every commonly misunderstood car issue as well as the most common car issues with tool expansion vids you do what most dont bridging the gap between those who know and deal with vehicles and creating a soild base of faqs and tips I'm sure really help anyone whose never turned a wrench but wants to or has always wanted to try something and realistically doesn't know what said thing all entails... keep up the good work buddy.. I'm these times where everyones on social media and trying there hand at RU-vid those who are just naturally good at what they do and have a soild presentation really just stand out..

The 1990s -- the last time Nissan made a car worth owning. I'm really hoping they're going to turn things around with that new Z they're releasing soon. It'd be great to see that happen. They once were a company that built some fun cars.

Pop up lights should make a come back. I am sure the manufacturer who does it will have a huge success

These were so popular and good looking when they came out, their style has stood the test of time. Daniel-san need not take any less than what he wants.

Clean shark nose! Had an 89 swapped with an rb20. Wish I never would have gotten ride of it. Such a fun classic design.

Damn that is clean for a 240

Thanks for an interesting and informative vid,delivered with pleasant good cheer. 🌞

17:02 - "it's not leaking or anything" just before a drop from the top of the fuel tank falls from the top left corner of the screen

uh oh wizard, you’ve awakened the S-Chassis fandom😂😂😂😂😂 all jokes aside I ADORE this platform.

Hey Wizard, Mrs Wizard & Danielson, this is an interesting Nissan that's in pretty good shape!!! I'm wondering if the headlights go down into the hidden position??? Thanks for sharing this fun video!!! 👍👍🙂

Oh this one is a classic you can do some endless upgrades on this one , look up Nissan Silvia and see how nicely this can look when you put some work into it … it’s a keeper

Dad had an early 70s 240z we started restoring till it was totaled out in a pileup. He used the insurance from that to buy a 69 Mustang Fastback to replace it as a project. Really liked working on that one though with the straight 6 and 4 speed. Was fun to drive. Oh hey, I also got a Mishimoto radiator to replace the stock one. Going with a red interior and white paint for a SpeedRacer Mach 1.5 dealio with the 69 mustang my dad left me. Dad was a big into Japan having lived there as a kid following WW2.

That thing looks freaking nice for it's age.. I don't know why as time moves on cars from the 90s start looking a little better in design.. lol

I love seeing modified 240's at the shop I work at but seeing a stock 240 is even better.

My neighbor has one - I am not 100% sure he understands what he has. 100% stock - 100% original. Driven on nice days...

A friend I know bought one in Vancouver Canada. It is a hatchback model, features a metric speedometer and manual front safety belts. Brought in via the 25 year rule

Just to add the river thames that runs thru England to London was also known as the Isis in the past

Bought my 1990 240 SX brand new....still have it ! Always winter stored, unmolested, original paint, no accidents.Numbers matching engine and tranny.After seeing quite a few videos on 240 SX.....mine would be worth a pretty penny......and no...its not for sale !

Keeping a car garaged really saves a car and keeps dashes like new.

These are prob the only car I remember from HS being all over the "$1000 and under" section of craigslist that have now come full circle to being in demand. Didn't exactly happen for Saturns/Geos lol

I've never seen a 240 in such good condition, usually their owners coudn't maintain a lawnchair

Good on you Wiz n Mrs Wiz for letting Daniel sell his car on your channel.

Good job Daniel San. I think you're ready for your own channel!

"ALL NEW hud from GM! 2020 we invented the hud" "1990 Nissan - Hold my HUD"

I just saw an s14 240sx in stock condition. Absolutely mint. No not racer mods, still had the stock wheels even

I recall that all of these had a 2.4L inline four. The early models had a 12-valve version putting out around 145 hp (the Hardbody truck had this as a base engine but that version had 134 hp due to exhaust restrictions. Later models of these cars went to an upgraded 16 valve head that boosted power to 155 hp. These cars offered no upgraded engines - just a single engine offering. There was also a limited edition convertible in addition to the hatchback. The convertible was based on the coupe. The coupe and hatchback had very different rear lower quarter panels and different tail lights. Regarding the muffler, you can point out the "killer" exhaust on your 240SX. Look see? It says "ISIS."

The Car Wizards has the coolest walk on RU-vid! I'd love to see a continuous loop video of him just waddling around on his stubby little legs with Pantera's WALK as the background music!

Solid cars. I had a 1993 nissan NX2000. stock motor was strong and blew beating a corvette.. No worries, upgraded to the NEOvvl motor and I became legendary around the NYC area.. I sold it last year in May. Originally bought back in Sept 2002. Car had 300,000 plus miles.. I miss you

We call these onevia in New Zealand ,180 sx front ,Silvia rear ,dam nice tidy S13 ,just needs a RB25DET or a 1JZ or 2JZ,these cars are starting to be a rare find in this condition these days and should command good dollars ,it will end up a drift car lol .

thats a cool car.. im old now i guess i like that station wagon in the background , cool sleeper

Maybe Spiderman was waiting for another tornado to come through so he can hitch a ride back to Florida... Or Oz, aka Australia. Wherever that tornado is headed

Nice car!!! Modern day classic

Heads up display was only available on coupe models. For 91-93 Sunroof was standard on SE. As well as power windows, cruise control, rear spoiler, power mirrors, and alloy SE wheels.

Ms wizard I'm a big fan hope to see you more in videos love y'all show Mr wizard

I had a white 92 hatch 🐣 Easily one of my favorites! Was not fast but very fun. She’s aged well! Still is a looker!

When first stationed in Japan I had a 91 Silvia so I love these things...great cars

Oh, those seatbelts. I went to test drive a VW Corrado SLC with the (then) new VR6 engine. I loved the car and was ready to buy, at least I was until I was getting out of the car after the test drive. As I opened the door I reached down to pull the hood release so that I could check out that amazing engine. When I did that the seatbelt started its retraction process, grabbed me by the neck and stuffed my face into the dashboard. The salesman and my friend wondered where I went all of a sudden and came over to the left side of the car to investigate my disappearance. They spotted me, trapped at an obviously very awkward angle, and my friend burst out in hysterical laughter. The salesman hit the release on the belt and freed me, but at that point I was so p!ssed off that I swore never to buy a car with those stupid belts. I really like the Corrado and would love to buy one now, but if I do one of the first modifications I will make is to replace the passive restraint system with conventional seatbelts. I have no problem wearing my seatbelts and feel weird if I drive without one, and so I don’t need some half-a$$ed system to ‘help’ me put on my belts. The rule that created those belts was a hot mess since it only did the shoulder belt - you still had to fasten the lap belt manually, unlike VW’s non-automated passive restraint system in the ‘70s Rabbit (which had a huge knee bolster to keep you in place instead of submarining under the dash).

Stop stop stop you're triggering me with my 240sx ownership flashbacks. I miss my car so much!!!! Mine was a '90 coupe.

Miss all of mine greatly. Owned S13s from '95 until about '17. Those fender extensions that are now both missing are probably hard to find these days. And I would guess there was a sunroof as welding a metal plate over the hole with bondo/paint would be a normal mod for those looking for extra head room and less weight in the car. I also prefer the coupe, had 2 of those and 1 convertible. First coupe was totalled, now I don't know where the convertible or other coupe (KA-T) are at these days.

Literally the nicest guy on RU-vid, not only that you just can tell that he is an honest hard-working guy. That’s why he is so in demand, when Tyler found him He knew right away that he found a competent, intelligent, and mostly the biggest part is his honesty. What an incredible find we have with the wizard! He makes me laugh every time and he gives his straight opinion. The best part is if he doesn’t know, he will find out and research it and become an expert and then only will he give you his opinion. It’s a man who was in the military and knows that it’s all about teaching yourself. I’m sure he will be in his late 80’s still learning and wrenching on cars, retired on some tropical estate 🤟🏻👍🏻👊🏻

My mom bought one of these new and then I bought it from her - they were/are great cars.

Here for this. Thank you, Car Wizard!

I had one of these. I bought it brand new, at the Datsun/Nissan dealership I worked at.

This 240sx looks like really good daily driver its got lots of potential

my neighbour has one that he is ust letting rust in his front yard, i kind of hope hoovie buys this and restore it :D

The background audio in this makes me miss living in the country. Near a lake Wizard? 😁

The good old KA24DE. My 95 240sx SE still has that engine in it and I've had a SR20DET in my garage forever.

Love it! My first car was an ‘89 with the heads-up display and all.

that guy works on his eyebrows.

I hope this goes to someone who will fix it and take care of it, too many have been destroyed due to neglect.

I’ve owned a few of these. They were such fun cars and the KA engine would run forever. I wish I could find another one that didn’t cost an arm and a leg.

Too Cool ! Thanks Car Wizard and very nice of you to do for Danial Son :) Wish I had the space, looks like a great survivor car. Dumb question, but why not D-Son keep it? These things are just going up in value as you made this video.

Super fun cars in the day. Back when Nissan made reliable cars...

I weirdly like to hear the clicks when the car goes up on the lift. Please leave them clicks in!

We all know a mechanic loves working on their own car 🙄🙄🙄 So much to do Daniel but the Wizard has put pressure on him to get things sorted now 😂

I had a 1991 240SX LE 5 speed hatch with Super HICAS in the late 90s. Completely stock before all the drift mess started. A fun car, but came up short in driving dynamics (and power) to me after owning many Zs and turbos. Always a Nissan fan I still own an 86 300ZX Turbo GLL and daily a SE-R Spec V.

I’ve owned five 240’s so far and my favorite was the coupe, dual cam 5 speed was amazing, I miss it but I got a white hatch now

Had a 1990 that I had bought from a Salvage Dealer back in 99. $500 bucks!! It was such a nice car when I got it running. I wish I had kept it all these years but I just did not realize how collectable that car would be today.

These were great looking cars back in the day and I wish Nissan made a modern day version of it still. This car is in far better shape than most 240SX's but still it would be a huge money pit trying to bring it back or even to just keep it going like it is. If you pay $10,000 or $20,000 for this thing you are completely insane in my opinion.

You got me at pop-up headlights!

I had an 1989 240 sx I got for free! Part of a property my dad purchased back in the day. It was in good shape but burned lot of oil.

all things considering the car is in pretty good shape especially if Daniel is going to replace the clutch and fix the battery cable. it should sell quickly.

Great video from the wizard.

One comment, and this will come as no surprise to anyone here. When a car owner says "these issues will be addressed before you buy it..." make sure the issues are addressed before you go further. I remember test driving a 280ZX turbo at a dealer in 1984, and when I observed that the clutch was in trouble on our test drive, he assured me "that will be fixed before you take delivery." I bought one elsewhere a month later, that had no problems. Nice to see this survivor. Hopefully the buyer doesn't turn this into a "drift car".

I heard bob the spider was a paid actor. Congrats on getting a celebrity guest appearance from the guy who bit spiderman!

I had a 1984 200sx. Awesome car.
