Newcomer to the 240SX world

Hi all, Just want to introduce myself to this forum. I've been searching for a 240 for quite soeme time now but havent had quite the good luck.

Today I picked up a 90 Hatchback with 135k miles but its Auto . Body is pretty clean with the exception of of a small hit on the front right corner. Paint is dull, will need a paint job soon but a good polish and wax will do for now. Got it for 500 so thats why i picked it up. Needs a few repairs but gonna endup selling it for more.

Is there a place to get OEM parts at a good price?

congrats on the buy and welcome to the boards

as far as OEM parts at a "good price"... if you don't feel that dealerships are a "good price"...then you're just gonna have to get them from a private seller if you don't mind used parts... you could also try junkyards....

Well right now I gotta get this auto 240 more appealing. That way I can sell it for more and use the money to get a newer one. It be much, but that was the only reason I purchased it.

Regarding which parts, just about any parts that may be of need at some point. Wether it be OEM or Performance parts. I know performance will not be too low of a price. But I have come across a site that sells OEM parts at a discount....for Hondas that is. Just want to know if there is one for Nissan as well.

On another note...the check ingine light is on. I pulled the ecu and checked the codes. I was able to figure out one but not the rest. Anyone have an idea on this?....

Bliiiiink Bliiiiink --- Blink Blink Blink = 23 Idle switch

Blink Blink Blink Blink = 4?
Blink Blink Blink Blink Blink = 5?
Bliiiiink = 1?

23 I understand and maybe thats why it idles at about 1300rpm after being warmed up. But the fast 4, 5 and then a long 1 I cant figure out. I got the following codes from ka24development.

11 - Camshaft position sensor
12 - Mass Air Flow Meter Sensor
13 - Coolant Temperature sensor circuit
14 - Vehicle Speed Sensor signal circuit is open
15 - Mixture ratio is too lean despite feedback control; fuel injector clogged
21 - Ignition signal in the primary circuit is not being entered to the ECU during cranking or tuning
22 - Idle speed control valve or circuit
23 - Idle switch (throttle valve switch) signal circuit open
24 - Park/Neutral switch malfunctioning
25 - Idle Air Control Valve
28 - Cooling fan
29 - Fuel system rich
31 - ECU internal problem
32 - EGR malfunction (California models)
33 - Front O2 sensor
34 - Detonation (Knock) Sensor
35 - Exhaust Gas Temperature sensor (California models)
36 - EGRC-BPT valve
37 - Closed Loop
41 - Intake Air temperature sensor
43 - Throttle Position Sensor
44 - No trouble codes stored in ECU
45 - Injector fuel leak (California models only)
51 - Fuel injector circuit open (California models only)
53 - Oxygen sensor (300ZX right side)
54 - Short between automatic transmission control unit (TCU) and ECU
55 - Normal engine management system operation is indicated – this means all is OK.
65 - Misfire detected - cylinder no. 4
66 - Misfire detected - cylinder no. 3
67 - Misfire detected - cylinder no. 2
68 - Misfire detected - cylinder no. 1
71 - Misfire Detected - Random
72 - Catalytic Converter Malfunction
74 - EVAP pressure sensor
75 - EVAP leak
76 - Fuel injection system
77 - Rear O2 sensor
81 - Vacuum cut bypass valve
82 - Crankshaft Position Sensor
84 - Automatic Tranny-to-Fuel Injection Communication Line
85 - VTC solenoid
87 - EVAP canister purge control
91 - Front oxygen sensor
95 - Crank Cog
98 - Coolant temperature sensor
103 - Park/neutral switch
105 - EGR and canister control valve (Solenoid)
108 - EVAP volume control
111 - Inhibitor Switch
112 - Vehicle Speed Sensor A/T
113 - A/T 1st Signal
114 - A/T 2nd Signal
115 - A/T 3rd Signal
116 - A/T 4th Signal or TCC
118 - Shift Solenoid/V A
121 - Shift Solenoid/V B
123 - Overrun Clutch S/V
124 - TOR Converter Clutch SV
125 - Line Pressure S/V
126 - Throttle Position Sensor A/T
127 - Engine Speed Signal
128 - Fluid Temp Sensor


How are the codes in the 100's determined? Sorry for this being quite long for a simple question.

With dealer ships you can always find most of the OEM part but they usally jack up the prices. EBay motors has a little too.
