thanks for the kind comments gt-rz! you hit the nailon the head! im sick and tired of bumping this thread back by reducing the price, it just conditions people to hold out longer. i know the market is flat. i have the car advertised on carsales at $21497. but i will definately negotiate with an sau user/member. i can hardly believe that ive had no bites. this car is an absolute weapon. sure you can pickthem up for $10/12k now and i dont expect to get the full cost of modifications back but i think the price is quite reasonable. you couldnt build yourself this car even buying a cheap stocker you would be up for over $30k!!!

i think in a word ; traction lol! when i bought this car back in 2000, i was 29 years old and single. now iam 36 years old ,married with 2 children and a mortgage. ive spent too much money on it to watch it depreciate anymore than it has already has. i still like rice burners but i need something with 4 doors ,half the power and twice the grip! lol! i look funny pulling up at kindergarten picking up and dropping of my son when the wifes got the patrol. i get alot of strange looks from other parents. cars f**king loud! my neighbours must hate me... i hope i can sell this thing soon. i think the way its going , if it takes too long i will be getting the evo9 instead. all the best with the sale of your beast sinistagtst!

    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
