hey guys,

just wondering what everyone thinks their ceffy's are valued at?

what they are worth to you?

and if you'd even consider selling, considering what you'd get and the money you've spent?

I know i've spent a heap on my ceffy, and like all cars you will never get back what you've put into it, but i'm just curious about prices.

there are only 7 ceffy's F/S around aus on carsales atm. varying in price from 9500 to 16000!

whats your opinions...

I think if I fixed a few little things up, ie passenger side rear window doesnt go up atm, get that fixed. Id still aim for the $15k mark. Im sure if I waited long enough someone would pay it. Mines a bit different to most tho, hasnt been flogged out drifting.

Ours is probably the most factory standard and unmolested ceffy in the country, to the extent that almost all the worn parts have been replaced by genuine Nissan stuff (much to my horror)... my old man treats it better than he treats me and even washes/buffs it each weekend. he mentioned he'd be looking for about $12000 minimum if he was to sell it.

my brother just sold his for 6.5k (i think) registered (skyline rb20det (under 100k i think), manual conversion, fmic, pod, 3" exhaust)

it needed a new timing belt, the cluster surround had sagged - other then that it was stock

he didn't advertise it though

i'd be chasing about 15-16K for mine cos that's literally what i regard it as being worth...

it's not a drift hack, and it's been very looked after and i think that 15K it's worth that much?

remember its only worth as much as someone is willing to pay :rolleyes:

how much do they usually go for on here?

I think because there are so few (relatively speaking), people are more picky

well i'd accept 14, cos i'm lokoing to move up not just move across as far as cars that i buy go...

mine's a nice ceffy., i would HATE to see it get sold to some kid that will use it as a drift hack.

Yeah, thats probably my biggest fear too.

I still want that 'spare' front lip of yours tho...

Either way I want a house and a V6 passat.

yeah i'm torn if i was to sell i think i would be after mid to high teens for mine. saying that it is drifted, but maintained ridiculously - and had almost every modification possible from styling to suspension to engine build and mods to paint. and its registered

i love my ceff, i just hope that maybe in the future its not worthless :thumbsup: - hence why the topic was started...

the panel shop still has my front n rear bumpers they say it's in "storage" now

...i think it's "in the bin"

just make one out of fibreglass dude, how you been anyway?

haha duuude is your badge in the pic actually studded or is that sum photo shop magic

an i rekn mine would fetch 8.5k the way it is hahaha

yes my badge is acutally studded with genuine swarovski crystals

seriously

the shine from them is so deep and on so many levels esp at night under lights they come out orange pink blue all sorts

when my car is parked a lot of people walking past actually stop and just look at it it's kinda creepy haha

the other night i was at nando's n this group of about 4 guys stood around my car and took pics... i was like.... you guys are hell gay...

but yeah no photoshop there man

hmmm, you'd be a happy boy if someone swiped your badge then :)... looks bling though, i like it!

Toffy - nothing is wrong with the ceff :spank:

just thinking... as i would really like a 34 4 door, with massive mods or a jzx100... not for a very long time though lol.

stick with the ceffy mate, neither of those cars have enough on it to warrant selling it :w00t: , once you change colour etc it'll be like a new car to ya again anyways :spank: . about 3 years ago i sold my first ceff with similar thoughts (i bought a r33 4d with intenion to make it a drift hack) , worst move i ever made :)

    • Fark what are the changes of that snapping like that, clean. Nek minnit, custom radiator goes in, with built in oil cooler like those discontinued PWR ones from yesterdeacades ago
    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
