  1. Well this thread just delivers it all, Excitement, Drama, Accusations, and not to mention the non-stop Single Vs Twin debate. Everything except a fairly tail romance, but hopefully the right woman R34 will walk through the door and change that. Thanks for the read everyone! Oh an Sinista let me know if you want to trade for my Evo IX. Since y'know, 'evos are better' hahaha.
  2. Whats the Size? I've got a track day coming up and would love a decent set of racing slicks for the Evo IX
  3. Price Drop again! First person to see it will probably buy! Pictures don't do it justice. This drives unlike every Silvia/S15 I've driven. $19.990!
  4. Thanks for the reply. I guess before I start considering the logistics of trading cars 1400km away, and the costs of travelling + cash your way, I'd need to know if my S15 floats your boat? http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Nissan-Silvia-2000/SSE-AD-2860916/?Cr=7&sdmvc=1
  5. I've been gawking at this car on Carsales for a fair while now. Sorry to hear you're having trouble with selling. I'd be damn tempted if I could actually sell my car. Would be an epic trip back to the gold coast. Out of Interest, what kind of power are you running on the 6262? I'm guessing the engines standard internals? I know your add states only an 04+ 350z (and I'm sure there's fair reasoning to that), but I can't help but ask the question that I myself, hate being asked so much myself with trades, "You wouldn't be interested in a S15 1JZ would you?" The only reason I ask, is because they're both turn of the millennium, 6cyl, rwd sports cars, but I understand it's not everyone's cup of tea. I'm guessing coming from a GTR you're looking for something a little different.
  6. Would have to be a nice Evo 7. Have you got any pictures/details? If I don't go an Evo X I'd prefer to go a gen of GTR. Open to considering a R32/R33 as well as the R34 with cash someone's way.
  7. 2 new rear tyres put on yesterday. Bump for offers!
  8. Consider this a free bump! Absolutely gorgeous car. Living so close in SEQLD, the temptation to take a personal loan to increase my budget is huge, but I'm fighting the temptation as paying $52k on a 15 year old car is hard to justify to non enthusiasts (such as family).
  9. Bump! Price drop. Keen to make a deal for the right buyer. http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Nissan-Silvia-2000/SSE-AD-2860916/?Cr=5&sdmvc=1
  10. Bump - Would also consider trades for a R34 GTR With cash adjustment.
  11. Wiper blades and arms But I agree, I thought it was a bit excessive at the time! It was kinda an urgent thing, It was tipping it down leaving work and I couldn't see a thing, I commute a fair way and just wanted something quality. Having said that they're by far the best I've used (No screetching, jumping or leaving lines). As far as wiper blades go they look pretty good too. Ordering them online I could have maybe saved $20 or so, but the situation didn't allow Bump for offers.
  12. Looking for offers around 24k negotiable. 2000 JDM Import 1JZ-VVTI S15 I'm looking at swapping to an Evo X for a more 'work suitable' car. Since I've owned this car, I've funnelled a lot of money into it to make it the best possible street/daily car. It's incredibly torquey and fun & easy to drive. Conversion was done by previous owner however I've spent a lot of time under this car, and the quality of the conversion is damned good. My Mechanic has carried out 1JZ swaps before, and couldn't fault the work done. Car is modplated for the engine & gearbox conversion, road registered and fresh 6 months rego put on 4 days ago. Chassis has 123,000ks on it and is perfectly straight. Engine Engine is stock, and comes on boost immediately. Cruising on the highway in 5th gear, if you touch the loud pedal more than 10% you're on boost. Car was dyno'd by last owner at 265RWHP, but it's the torque that feels amazing. The VVTI 1JZ improved both fuel economy, and a 20% increase to low down torque. Motor & Gearbox has 111,000ks on it, and had new HKS timing belt and major service at time of conversion (previous owner) Oil and filter changed 1000km ago (Penrite 10W40 Racing Oil & Ryco Z418 Oil Filter) Koyo Radiator & twin thermos - New Radiator hose installed last week 23/05/14 R154 5 speed Gearbox, Custom lightweight tailshaft to stock R200 diff Brand new OS Giken Grand Tourer Twin plate clutch w/ hard metal front cover (custom made by OS Giken and took 3 months to get from Japan), rated to 700hp, incredibly quiet for a twin plate and super easy to daily drive, converted from Push type clutch to Pull - This is a $2300 clutch and the best you can buy. OS Giken lightweight flywheel & new high tensile flywheel bolts New Spigot Bearing and Rear Main Oil seal installed at same time. Penrite 75W90 Gearbox Oil 3" custom exhaust with highflow cat (one of the most beautiful sounding cars I've driven) Turbosmart Boost Tee - only running 1 bar. Standard Turbo can run 18PSI reliably and standard 1JZ internals are good to 600-700hp. Upgraded Front Mount Intercooler (unsure of brand but it's about as big as you can fit under the front bar) Exterior 18x9.5 +20 Rota Dished wheels, 245/40/18 tyres all around Guards rolled - no scrubbing New front and rear tridon wiper blades ($100) Stock Body Kit Stock JDM Rear Wing OEM White Paint in good condition. 1 small stone chip on bonnet. May have been resprayed by previous owner. Interior Brand new TRD short shifter & shift knob, imported from Japan - Cost $350 Custom Black painted interior (over stock interior's easily scratched silver) - Sound/heat proofed the trim at the same time Defi Boost Gauge (previous owners - not sure if geniune) Defi Water temp gauge (previous owners - not sure if geniune) Viper Alarm System (LED Pager that alerts you when something goes on with the car up to 1 mile away) - Blue flashing light with sensors on windscreen says "Don't even think about trying to steal this car" - Alarm is freaking loud. Real Carbon Fiber Centre Console (Gearstick & Radio Surround) - Cost $200 Suspension SPL Titanium Pro Caster/Tension Rods ($300) Blitz 32 way adjustable coilovers Also have (not currently installed) Dakota Digital Tachometer adjuster ($180 from the states) (common issue when swapping to a bigger engine and keeping stock dash, tachometer is out by 1/2, this is a plug and play item that adjusts it to the correct RPM) Brand new in box Nismo 280k speedo ready to install ($350 from Japan) Custom black leather & red stitching shift boot, arm rest cover and handbrake boot ($60 imported from UK) Nismo strengthened clutch pedal bracket ($90 from Japan) I have receipts and logs for everything I've spent on this car. Comes with RWC
  13. Thanks, who was the engine work done by? Who was the tune done by? Is the power output (342.5hp on 16psi,) on a 2WD dyno or AWD?
  14. Any pictures of the car? Got receipts for the engine work etc?
