NB1 for sale

NB1
250k miles

The good :
Starts and drives (poorly)
Was 'good nuff' to get an inspection last it was used (a year ago).

The bad :
Front crank seal leak
Backfires into the intake (I suspect timing is slipped), so you need to keep the RPM up to 'keep er goin'
Idle wobbles up and down
Some rust under left rocker panel in front of rear wheel (I can grind/weld this if someone wants)

Basically, it's a craptacular car, but it runs (barely).
If someone wants a cheap fixer upper, let me know.

(Note, it currently has a Fab9 coil on plug kit I installed to sanity check the ignition, it will go back onto my sorted miata before I get rid of it)

Price is $500

If you are gonna use it for lemons, I can let it go for less.

It's a few hours work and a couple hundred bucks in parts from being a usable car.

I'm not gonna get a lot for it regardless, so if you are gonna put it to use, name a price.

Here's a list of the minimum stuff I know the car needs :



Exhaust : -------------------

California version pre-cats are dead. These parts can be used to convert to non-california.
(replace headers, extend cable on first O2 sensor and plug into new header, add O2 bung after main cat, extend cable on second O2 sensor and plug it in behind the cat)

(headers $170) https://www.ebay.com/itm/Raceland-Exhau ... 2894315125

(O2 sensor bung $6) https://www.ebay.com/itm/02-STAINLESS-S ... a-&vxp=mtr

(O2 sensor extensions $90) http://www.good-win-racing.com/Mazda-Pe ... -1039.html

(new rear O2 sensor $35) https://www.amazon.com/Spectra-Premium- ... B00B806Z7I


Timing belt : -----------------

https://www.amazon.com/Gates-TCK179-Tim ... iming+belt




Crank Seal : -------------------

(I have a spare, will give with the car)




Note : Most sensors and bits around the throttle have been replaced (even the idle control).



I suspect (hope) that will be all... for a total of : $ Tree-Piddy



***You will probably want to replace the water pump while doing the crank seal.

+ Your time.
