do you want an s14 or s13? for a clean, clean s13 (1xx,xxxmiles) i'd say no more than $2500, for an S14 its all relative...depends on a lot of things, mileage, modifications, condition, engine problems. Look for rust, engine noise (rattles, tapping, etc...) Try to buy a low mileage one from an old lady if there is such a 240. If they say they've replaced something big, ask for a receipt. Anything im missing?

Look for rust. On/under the hatch, near the door hinges, under the car, battery tray. That's the only thing I can think of besides normal wear/tear.

look for LOTS of rust.. and a single cam. preferably with and exhaust leek and bad headgasket. then BUY IT! sit on it for 6 months wishing for an SR and then sell it later for half of what you paid for it.

thats my call
