  1. PRICE DROP TO $10,500 Apologies to anyone that was interested and wasn't able to view the car previously, it is now 100% ready for viewing/sale and RWC. Just put 4 new Continental contact sport tyres on it, plus 6 months fresh rego.
  2. Car is temporarily unavailable until 21st oct onwards. Getting a service + new tyres and RWC in the meantime. Thanks for current enquiries.
  3. Little bit of Interest so far but need to sell, so come on people - the car is probably one of the nicest s1 s14s in QLD and looks very very sweet on the road
  4. 1996 series 1 nissan 200sx. It is in excellent condition and drives wonderfully. Selling to help fund overseas trip. Features: - Original black paint which is quite rare - 17" Japanese lightweight alloys with Khumo Semi Slick tyres - RDA slotted brake rotors and sports brake pads front and rear - Genuine Cusco strut tower braces front and rear - Sports suspension set up for road use (firm without being overly firm - handles amazingly well) - Engine is 100% stock apart from: Upgraded stainless steel turbo water lines with earls fittings and upgraded Japanese made Koyo radiator (50% more flow than stock). Both of these were preventative modifications - Excedy HD clutch - HKS hi-power exhaust system - turbo back. (silencer included) - Series 2 200sx tail lights - Nismo front grill/Nismo leather Gear knob. Original gear knob and front grill included - Full Alarm system with central locking. The car drives and handles amazingly and is really a perfect road car for sporting use. It has full service history and original documentation. I've run it on Motul 300v Chrono competition oil and to date it has not used a drop over it's 5000km service intervals. The engine is very very tight. All other fluids used have been Motul. Car has been used as a daily driver for the past year and I have been fastidious about the way it is looked after, as was the previous owner. First 2 photos were taken upon delivery from previous owner last year, hence the VIC number plates. The only thing noteworthy about the car is that the gearbox whines a bit. It's not a grinding whine, just a smooth audible one. It did this when I got it, and it's never developed from there, but it's something that prospective buyers should be aware of. Besides the whine, the gearbox is very tight, synchros are perfect and the whole drivetrain itself feels great. Pics: Price is $12,000, Located on the Sunshine Coast, QLD.

  5. This cefiro is practically excellent - Will lives very close to me and I've known this car for over 2 years. It's immaculant and very very well built. New owner will be lucky!
  6. Heres a link to the ad - thanks http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/19...02#entry3576102
  7. Hey all, time may have come to move into a new car - I built this laurel from a non turbo stocker. I put in the rb20det, manual box, clutch box, tailshaft etc etc. The conversion was done extremely well, and the rb20det was compression tested before it was put in. It registered 160+ on all cylinders. The car is very tight - I know because it's been my 2nd laurel. The underbody is very very clean with minimal dents in the rails, indicating it hasn't had a hard life previously. The doors all close nicely. The interior is quite nice for a car this cheap. Dash is very very clean and everything works. The paint is the major downfall of the car at the moment - It's basically pretty average. On the bonnet there is paint flaking and on the boot the paint has faded and the clear coat is coming off. Aside from that, the body only has a few miner shopping trolley dings which are negligible. Overall cosmetic appearance is pretty piggish - sure as hell isn't going to win any autosalon awards. Specs: Motor/drivetrain *1993 model with the late tail lights *rb20det from r32 front cut - high compression and ran on motul full synthetic 5w-40 oil since I've had it. Starts perfectly every time, doesn't use a drop of oil. I've changed the oil every 3000kms since putting the motor in. Dyno'd when tuned a few months ago in the mid 150kw at the wheels, on stock boost, with stock intercooler. This indicates the motor is very fresh. *5sp manual transmission from r32 - very very tight - possibly the nicest one I've ever felt. *heavy clutch - unsure of what kind *LSD - standard type although decent enough for sports driving/drifting *Nismo white round plastic gear knob *Speedo reads around 80,000kms *apexi pod filter bought new *stock intercooler, stock boost *custom mandrel bent 3 inch exhaust done by expensive exhaust shop running twin 2.5 angled tips at the end - quiet but sounds awesome. Suspension/footwork *Brand new k-sport coilovers - 36 way adjustable and height/stroke adjustable as well. In comparison to cusco coilovers in a friends 180sx, the Ksports hold their own very well. They're stiff but well damped and the car handles pretty amazing for such a basic setup. Not by any means uncomfortable or "floaty" *Ksport camber tops *Work 16x8 mesh front rims with cheapo low profiles, *standard s13 rear rims with worn bridgestone gIIIs Other Brand new JVC mp3 head unit installed just a few weeks ago Will include another 2 stock s13 rims - great drift rims Only pic I have at the moment sorry: I'll add more later. Basically the car is an excellent base. If you wanted to pretty it up, all it would need would be paint and another pair of mesh 16s for the rear. As it sits, it's very capable for drifting or fast driving. The conversion was very very clean and the motor looks as if it was there from factory. There are still a few little things to do, which would be the wiring for the windscreen wipers, and to connect the AC. The motor and gearbox in particular are extremely strong - for a stocker the motor is very very fast. Car will be sold with any remaining rego (expires 02/02) and without RWC - buyer can organize one if need be to transfer the rego. I don't have time and I can't be assed dealing with mechanics - which is the reason why I'm going to a brand new car. I'm willing to drive the laurel to anyone in QLD and drop it off there. I'm located on the sunshine coast, 40 mins north from Brisbane. $8000-ono Contact: 0411 147 357 or PM me here
  8. Awesome, thanks for the replys.... now if only I could know what the clip actually looks like.... Any takers? please?
  9. I swapped a rb20det into a previously rb25de series 1 powered laurel. I got it wired by nizpro in the goldcoast. For some reason now the tacho doesn't work and the windscreen wipers don't work either. It's odd because the window washer spray works when you pull the lever back. I don't really know where to start with either of them. Has anyone got any ideas? Gavin
