This is a really clean example of a Aus-delivered 1997 S14a Sports. The car is manual and turbo charged. It is located in the eastern side of Melbourne (Kew East, Melway P45), approx 15mins from city.

It has been well looked after and in excellent condition. The engine never gets boosted and still runs the standard turbo. It doesn't get raced or thrashed. It comes with road worthy and 12 month registration, basically drive away. Never receives attention from the police and is driven sensibly.

The engine is reliable and responsive with only 112,000km. It starts without hesitation. Like the engine, the manual gearbox is also smooth and gear selection simple. Steering is light and tires have lots of life left.

The exterior is in especially good condition. The car was originally red but has been professionally re-sprayed in championship white. The detail of the job means it is impossible to tell the car has been re-prayed during normal day driving (only the engine bay has been left red). The color is sharp and clean.

The body kit comes from ings+1 (famous Japanese brand) and features a vertex style front bar with its quality and craftsmanship proven through its rigidity and strength.

Interior is clean and fabric is still soft and fresh. Previous owner didn't smoke. No rips or burn marks present.

Overall it's a pleasure to drive.

Main Modifications include:

Genuine HKS intercooler

Turbo back 3" Mandrel bent exhaust

Genuine Ings+1 body kit w/t vertex style front bumper (http://www.ings-net.com/top.html)

17" Advanti wheels

K&N air filter

Interior leather detailing and sports steering wheel

Inspection is welcome for genuine buyers only. Email me at [email protected] or PM is fine. Not interested in swaps.

Regards Patrick

    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
    • You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
