My Taxi

[AdMan]

Hey, Ive had this for about 2 weeks now. So far a few things have gone wrong, but who doesnt sell a car that has problems with it ay?

Anyway...

89' A31 Cefiro

127,000k's

Silvertop RB20DET

5 Speed Manual

Adjustable Coilovers

Front Mount Intercooler

Apexi Blow Off Valve

Aftermarket Sideskirts and Rear Bar

17" Rims

3" Turbo back exhaust with canon muffler (sounds really nice)

Dyno tuned and got 142kw at the wheels.

Probably some more stuff but that'll do.

Its a bit of a change to my other cars Ive had.Before thisI was driving around in a Volvo 240 to get to work etc. And I have a 86' Z31 Turbo project car, which never really took off the ground. So if anyone wants it for $800 or so, then just ask lol. Before that I had a 85' NA Z31 which I sold just recently as it got defected. So I thought I should get something slightly more practical.

Anyway, heres some pictures of the beast.

I got some fairly good plans for it so far, just looking at having something completely different to everyone else.

At the moment, cosmetic is what makes it look a bit sad. Mostly it needs a new front bar, lookin out for an Autech one. Havnt even seen one in person yet. Looking for new headlights also, new or second hand... just need to get something that has the covers over them. Really ruins the look.

Had a few problems with the intercooler piping the last couple of days, pressure finding weak points in the silicone joins and making its escape. Should have no dramas with it now.

Theres a few things with the engine I wanna sort out also, the 20 shall be fine for now. I love how it sounds... Exhaust needs to be moved over, might get that done sometime soon. Respray is in an order, and I got a pretty nice idea on how im gonna do that.

Cant wait... I'm learning something, thats basically what I want to try and do... hehe.

Cheers mate!

Got defected earlier tonight, turned a corner... and into a defect station. Never been pulled into a defect station, so upset right now.

[TAKUSHI]

defect station?? is that where cops sit an wait for you to pass through?

or is that like the inspection place where you get the defect notice off your car

that sucks though sorry to hear mate

Yeah basically... set up on a blind corner, I drove around... did nothing wrong, and yeah they looked over the car.

50mm to low... lol. I knew it was low when I bought it, but didnt think it was that low...

[AdMan]

Decided to update this!

After a year lol...

Installed my new carpet yesterday, thought id put it up cos it was quite a lot of work and Im proud of myself for actually going through with the whole process..

Didnt really have any huge problems with it, sorta poked around and had a look at what needed to be taken off..

Definetly needed doing...

Well thats it...

Took me 6 hours to do, by myself.. lol.

Just gotta get some nicer looking seats, I am on the lookout for some that are more blacker, as you can see the driver seat is about what im looking for... Doesnt look half that bad in person, guess the flash makes it change in pictures.

Adam.

[Kris_a31]

looks mad dude

i think this is sams old car isnt it? if it was i think io was gonna buy this when he was selling it...

just took my ceffy off the road respray has now begun =)

[Resin]

Good work on the carpet. Looks much better !.......just like mine now apart from the area i dropped battery acid on accidently:(

[konect]

Nice man!

Did you get the carpet new or buy it off someone?

[huddy]

bought the carpet from me - Cheap as

[AdMan]

Cheers fellas..

Yeah it is Sam's old car, really its given me nothing but problems, but anyway.. what car doesnt.

Absolutely stoked about the carpet, has made everything look so much nicer and given me incentive to keep going on it. lol..

How many k's a tank does everyone else get out of theirs? Im gettin about 330 before I decided to fill up, have been to 360 a few times but thats pushing it. I dont race around, give the occasional squirt. Just depresses me sometimes, lol.. Also doesnt help having such a small tank, filling up every 3 or 4 days.

Also just had a thought, the passenger seat rail has snapped cos I checked when I took it out and I can take one from the different coloured one haha. Thanks Matt for ya help.

[Silvia GTR]

Ive always had a soft spot for cefiros, that carpet makes it look heap better though!

[AdMan]

Get so much grass in it though! haha, before you couldnt see it. Now the slightest grain of sand it is even noticeable!
