post-9261-1182214790_thumb.jpgG'day guys....

I was thinking about putting my old 95 GTST front bar and 'louvre' grill on ebay, as I now have a Trust bar on my car.

It is complete (indicator lenses, globe holders) and in good condition, even if it wasn't re-sprayed.

Guys, I'm just wondering what I could (should) be asking for it....

thankyoooooooo....

Di (and Superspit.)

man, you always ask us for advice, for things we cannot advise you on,

how much is it worth to you? think about that, come up with a price that you want, and advertise it!

remember, an item is only worth as much as someone is willing to pay for it. look around in the for sale section, guage your price on that, use the search function. i don't really see how this is relevant to the section.

I always ask for advice on things you can't advise on?????.....um....no....I think you've got the wrong 'member' Mr Eps!!! :laughing-smiley-014:

I've exhausted all avenues prior to selling this bar, and this forum has helped me a lot with my current selection.

So there it is...

I understand your point on 'willing to pay for it', but please, there is no need to be so troublesome...hehehe. :sorcerer:

anyway,

Thankyou and regards,

Superspit.

... it was you that wanted to eat lunch on 5c a week haha

i wouldn't bother putting it on ebay, just use the for sale section on the forum and go from there, someone out there must have a lunched front bum[er

ah ha!.....now I understand YOUR mis-understanding..... :laughing-smiley-014:

that wasn't me bro!!.... :D

though i did enjoy reading that topic...it was funny...I wonder if that guy was actually just having a lend??? :D

Still, even though you are totally incorrect on what you wrote, (5 cent a week?) and thus your joke didn't work, I will thank you sincerely for your time!..and your suggestion on a forum sale.

ahhhh....I love this place! :laughing-smiley-014:

Kindest Regards,

Superspit.

dude your mums hot :)

Lights?..Yeah...I really like them now that you told me that they shouldn't be on my car!!.....it's different!

Thanx.

spit.

How'd you get the nick spit/superspit?

Hi T33,

it was from the Supermarine Spitfire aircraft of WW2. (abbrev)

It's my favourite thing in the whole wide world!...other than my daughters and my car and my '69 Fender Telecaster.

And...I can spit really far, further than most spitting things.

And, thankyou for asking.

try calling auto spares places and ask them how much it will cost to buy the parts your selling. this place wanted me to swap my S1 M-spec frontand give them $250 for a S2 front bar with a dent and without rio, then told me that my M-SPEC front bar was rare and he'd sell it for $600 (what a d!ckhe@d's)so what ever there lowest swap price is i'd sell it for that? just an idea.

Good luck mate,

Aif

New retail from nissan is $800 .. so $300 reserve I rekon

Are you serious?

I'm gunna have to check that at work tomorrow.....

That seems excessively high when a Pajero bar is 3 times the size and only costs about $800-900. Although that could be a trade price.......

I'd say somewhere around 200-300 for a good condition second hand stock bar.

you also have to consider the fact that your nissan fb is plastic whereas a lot of the aftermarket ones are fibreglass copies. therefore i rekon you should atleast ask a price equal to that of the aftermarket bars

    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.  
    • For race cars, this is one part where I find having the roll cage bar having gone through a hole in the floor better than the build it up on a ledge inside... The Merc I help on, the main hoop ends are marked on the car, and the jack is marked... Jack goes under a few inches and lifts one whole side of the car up... Removes that fight for long slim jacks for race car duties!   My biggest issue for the daily drivers I work on, is my jacks don't go high enough. The jacks start out on a few blocks, jack it up, then start a second jack under it on more blocks, and then I can get an axle stand under it. My axle stands are presently in use, and are nearly fully extended. The car is sitting with barely more than a cm of clearance to get the wheel off the studs! Sarah's Kluger is the same, as it has an ungodly amount of droop available in the suspension and a distinct lack of good jacking points!
    • Happy? Yep, my to do list is getting shorter and shorter. Either this light approaching is the end of the tunnel, or I'm about to be hit by a train... Ha ha ha   Also, Duncan isn't that far out of town that you need to make a multi day drive out of it. 😛
