Yeah was stolen June last year, apparently passed through about 4 sets of hands after the insurance company sold it off.

I'm guessing a few people thought it was a GTT because I put the gauges and stuff in. But lets face it, it's a high-comp turbo engine with about 160K on the clock. I'd say it'd be a bit tired by now.

jst report this to the cops/rta and let them investigate. Give them the VIN etc...tht will screw them up! its becoming so damn common now turning back the odo...

My brother sold his civic in adelaide with 130ks on it...few mths later saw it on carsales.com with 60ks and added on a few Ks on the price! Not safe buying 2nd hand nowadays...:P

"This is an excellent car with very low k's" and "The vehicle is fully serviced and comes with dealer warranty."

:D:O:(

We sold the "chilli" white Barina on Ebay... LOL.
Slayer?

If only the new owner was aware of its distinguished history.

Alex, you never forget your first skyline, especially when it's an N/A + t with R33 crossover pipe back to front and a special metallic blue on the I/C pipes that I made at work.

Plus the engine and VIN numbers, and you can see the mod plate on the passenger strut brace.

hey,

thats at a car dealer on parra rd at granville im pretty sure i know which one it is as well, because i went with a mate to look at a bmw that was there and we suspected the beema was either stolen or in an accident cause the roof wouldnt go up without lifting it manually, and the guy was just making excuses for things and wouldnt let us take it for a mechanical inspection. what kind of car dealer says that, only if they have something to hide.

    • Was the failed sensor by any chance this one? Did it just fail or start pissing on itself? I ordered one too, for fuel pressure monitoring, and now I am hesitant to put it in, hehe. Where did you find a brand one?
    • You'd be insane, when a brand new 8HP is ~$4k, and all the work to put a 6 in would cost the same as an 8 and the 8 is a completely established swap. If you think that getting a cheap Falcon box is going to make it a cost effective exercise, then you're not accounting for the extra $10-15k that the task will consume.
    • any further information on this? also interested in putting a zf6 in behind a rb30!
    • They're all horrible. X-Trails have had a nasty sounding 4cyl since forever, no matter what engine family it came from. The CVTs only made that worse. Then the whole Renault thing only made every Nissan that was contaminated by them even worse again. The only fun I've had in a X-Trail was having it blown sideways across a frozen Minnesota highway at 90 mph trying to make it to the airport to get out of the frozen hellhole of Hoth. Nearly died. Was great fun.
    • Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆
