Rare 200zr : 300zx Style + Rb20det Skyline Power

[RB20_ZED]

FOR SALE: 1988 200ZR Fairlady (Final Edition) - I am very happy to have inspections so call me to arrange on 0411 235 832 if you are interested. I most likely won't be able to answer during work hours so leave me your contact details and a preferred time and I'll get back to you (or just PM me). Car is located near Baulkham Hills in north-west Sydney.

These cars are rare and highly sort after in Japan as a classic sports car and it is nearly impossible to find another one in Australia - especially a manual. Everyone loves to stare at this car and most have no clue what it is.

They are basically the body of the Z31 Californian 300ZX with the engine and driveline of an RB20DET skyline. This almost bullet-proof engine can push out a LOT of power. I recently had it tuned and dyno’d with a proven 191kw AT THE WHEELS.

Why am I selling it?

I love this car but I'm trying to save for an overseas trip around the world – and I’m not going to be able to take it with me. I work long hours and I have another car that I drive everyday so I never drove my 200ZR much anyway (would be lucky to do 150km a week).

Known Problem:

The speedo sensor cable needs to be replaced.

- It stopped working a few months ago.

- Can be bought new from Nissan for $119 (imported).

Other than that, the car is in excellent condition – you won’t find another like it (if you can find one at all). It’s a rare, sporty, powerful car - but still easy to find body & mechanical parts for (always either a Skyline or 300ZX part).

These cars can sell for $12000++ (if you can find another one)

Even in Japan they still sell for more than newer Skylines and 300ZX’s.

First to offer me $10000 will get this car, otherwise, nearest offer – Not desperate so will wait for the right buyer.

All enquires welcome

I may be interested if another Zed I am thinking about falls through. Did you end up fixing the problems you had with the car earlier this year including the master brake cylinder. I note a quote from your earlier post:

The problem is that it is running very rich.

- It needs to be fixed before it can be driven properly – I've had the crank angle sensor and ignitor professional tested by AFI but these are all working properly. I've also swapped the AFM but this didn't fix the problem.

- This would suit someone who is mechanically/electrically minded or familiar with RB engines etc.

- Problem happened 6 weeks ago out of the blue and I have not driven the car since then.

- The car starts but runs so rich that it is very hard to drive. ALSO if the car is left to run for a while, the spark plugs foul (from too much fuel) and need to be cleaned before it will start again. I've had to do this several times.

- I don't want to spend any more time or money trying to fix it when I was planning on selling it anyway to go travelling
