  • Its not often to find a 240sx in a junkyard, let alone a fully complete and bone stock 240sx S13! There were many OEM rare parts on this JDM legend that I have never seen before. This old Nissan 240sx was my best junkyard score yet!

    really glad you were able to find this gem. such a shame when people have no respect or understanding about the rarity of the parts they are destroying... as they try to get access to other parts on a car which they are going out to find parts for. anyways. keep at it!

      It really is annoying when people ruin these quality parts. The worst part is, the guy that ripped up the trunk interior was trying to get the trunk / gas door cable, which he broke in the proceess... so it was all for nothing 🫠😭

I remember yoinking a privacy cover for a da9 doing exactly this.. standing in the freezing cold in montana, holding the hatch open with my noggin, and sitting there for about 10 seconds in awe at the fact that there was a completely untouched interior on a car id only seen a few of ever.

    Nissan put a '4DSC' sticker on the back door windows. Stood for "4 Door Sports Car".
    That Kenwood alarm you saw with the dial on it was to adjust the sensitivity sensor. Some alarms back then had shock sensors. The alarm would go off if someone bumped into it. My alarm would sometimes go off just because of the wind or when the trash truck drove by it. Lol
    Kenwood, Alpine, and Viper were the top 3 alarm makers back then.

    Mike, you can clean stained carpets nad seats with an extraction vacuum and they will become like new again. I got one for my seats and proceeded to do the entire car including carpet rear bench and everything, thing works wonders. I also cleaned the Orange seats from a friends car (Citroen C2 VTR) which were completly black on the driver side and they became bright orange again. I hope this helps you because you talked about not considering the carpet at the beginning of the video because it was stained.

    It is great you have such type of junkyard in your location. In LTU we are not allowed to go any further than the waiting room and what is bad about this is that you are not able to inspect and review any vehicles by your own and maybe find some cool and rare stuff you may need. Usually junkyard employees are very rude, unfriendly and don't bother to look up for something which in their knowledge is low value or they see it as questionable profit. Most of the time you will here "no, there is no such a part and goodbye"...
