Lightly Modified Stagea... To Part Or Not To Part

G'day,

Just chasing some opinions, I've had my stagea for sale for the better part of a year now with no luck. My motivation to sell has changed significantly throughout this time I might add, meaning I've raised the price unreasonably high at times, as dictated by my personal situation, and back down to what I consider reasonable asking money with some flex for negotiating a number of times.

Anyway to the point, I'm now considering taking my stagea back to more or less stock to make a bit more cash on the after market bits fitted as i figure it doesn't add any value to the car/won't cost me all that much in a sale price and am wondering what you all reckon?

I'd part out the following

  • Scotties Dump Pipe (16 months old)
  • Apexi N1 exhaust (swap for stock + cash maybe.. or straight swap?) (cannon style, it sounds great but its one reason I reckon I haven't had a whole lot of interest)
  • Daleo's under car brace
  • HDI FMIC
  • Sell rims Lenso somethings 19inch (little bit of damage on all bar one, good tread)(would need to replace with my old wheels which all need new tyres.

What are peoples thoughts, or is anyone interested in the parts above? Most of the work I could do myself less probably getting the dump pipe swapped back to my original, I'm just really not sure I can be bothered.

Here's the ad anyway if you are interested http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Nissan-Stagea-2002/SSE-AD-2548380/?Cr=22&sdmvc=1

Cheers

Nick

just list it for what you would sell it for and dont take any less. Be honest in your advert about it rather than listing it higher with room for negotiation, no idea why people do this especially with a dificult vehicle to sell like the m35, say you want 9k for it and take 9k for it, sold my 33 in 24 hours by doing it this way.

A valid point phil, I sold my last car like that but I got the sh*ts with people coming up and saying "so you said $4500 firm no negotiating... I'll give you $3500.." The same people who literally after saying I was firm on price, were then shocked when I declined, one of whom became quite vocal, you don't Fing know what your cars worth idiot... your price is wrong because of this crap, it'll cost me this much to fix that... blah blah blah. Smiled and waved him off said I wouldn't sell it to u even if you offered me more than asking, got what i wanted later that day from another bloke.

To those who've PMed me, I'm still on the fence about parting it out. Will let you know when I decide. You can have all the bits + a free car for what I'm asking or near enough to it ;)

    • don't do. Fricken typos. Make me look like the sheeple.
    • I could show you guys photos of wrap having been removed properly, and where the wrap was removed, paint underneath is perfect. Sections of the vehicle didn't have wrap on it, and in those areas, the paint work is destroyed because of how long it had been sitting in the hot QLD sun for many many many years. Wrap even still looked decent. Good quality wrap, and removing it properly shouldn't rip off the paint work, unless the paintwork was already shot to pieces before hand.
    • Any write ups on replacing the window motor?  I've never messed with them (or window regulators) before.   Ever since I've had the car, the driver window would roll down just fine, but most often I'd have the try a few times to get it to go up.  As soon as it started to go up, it always goes up smoothly and quietly.  Seemed like a bad switch.  But now, its stuck in the fully down position and won't come back up.  I get =12/-12V coming out of the relay/amp when pressing the switch up/down.  So the switch and amp are working.  Just a bad motor.  I've also applied 12V directly to the motor and nada.   Any help on replacing the motor?  Can the glass and regulator stay in, and only replace the motor?  Or not possible?  Thanks!!!
    • You are wrong. That's just Whiteline going along with the incorrect slanguage of the sheeple userbase. They are only correctly known as anti-roll bars. They are only incorrectly known as swaybars. They do do anything to prevent "sway". The swaybars that are fitted to trailler hitches do prevent sway. In the trailer. And they do not look like anti-roll bars. So, take your incorrect infopinion away.
