Parting Out Parting out or whole, 98 silver svt.

[skiller1234]

Hi all 1998 silver CSVT. 156xxx miles, great great shape, but i think i threw a rod. I do not have the time, money,or patience to work on this - and either fix the engine or swap it out. There is a chance its something simpler, but based on descriptions i think the engine is toast. I really do not want to part this out, no space, so hopefully someone will take it off my hands. All I'm looking for out of it is enough money to fix the clutch on my other car, say $1,000. So someone mechanically inclined could take it for parts if they can pop a clutch into a sentra.

As seen in the the pics, the body is nice, no rust, all panels there and and the paint is fine. Wheels and tires look almost new. Spectre intake, B&M shifter, Spec 3 clutch. All accessories and switches work including sunroof.

Located in Thornton, CO.

I will put this on Craigslist as well if no takers in a couple weeks its getting donated.

Hey man good luck with the sale I wish I was in a position to take it off your hands for ya. It looks great I hope someone buys it instead of parting it out. But if you do end up parting it out or donating it can I dibs the jack point covers? (unless someone wants complete skirts then they can have them) and by donate you mean let me come down throw it on a trailer and bring it home right? Haha good luck again

ha Rad - Those jack point covers are hot items.... I actually got a few responses off my Craigslist add right away last night offering to help on my other car, so I might go in that direction. People seem to think I'm making the wrong choice, sticking with my 94 se-r over my 98 csvt - but I love that little car! Nissan>Ford..

I had an 03 Sentra Spec V. and it was okay until the butterfly screws carved their name in the cylinder walls at around 80k miles. It sucked in the corners and no matter what you did to the exhaust, it sounds like a ricer. I can't imagine a clutch being that hard in a lil 4 cylinder. Good Luck.

Are you parting it out or selling it as a complete car?
