1981 GH GXE Sedan with a thumping 2.0L engine and cost me $2000.. it had a sexc blue interior, was manual, drove pretty well, and got it up to 170km/hr .. oh and it had sheepskin seat covers ;)

Required a few things over the years - new starter motor, new gearbox + clutch, and 4 shockers.. all replaced cheap :)

Think i owned it for 3 years and sold it for $1600 still running nicely - great little car.

modifications.. ZERO - except for 4 speakers, pioneer CD unit and amp ;)

lol at denhams first car - well my "current" car (what i am driving while i get the skyline fixed) is a 4.1L 250c.u. engine in an 1987 XF wagon.. and its is sooooo hacked, but running.. i luv it..

Ambz: hehehe...tell me u didn't really own a gemmi and u were just joking... plz ;)

    • Hi all,   anyone know where I can pick one of these up for a reasonable price? I just resprayed my rear trunk due to fuel stain and my new muse spat install.    added a photo for some content 🤣👍   thanks 
    • Consider a 35 too...
    • He's right ~ there is no 'magic' with stuff like this ... it is more likely that in the process of looking for the short, the loom/wire 'incidentally' got moved in the process, thus removing the short ~ now, that maybe a wire (in a loom) rubbing against the edge of some grounded metal, that's worn through the insulation, causing the (now intermittent) short to ground. If one wire in a loom has been damaged in this fashion, it's reasonable to presume that other wires beside it may have also be damaged, and now exposed...you can bet the green crusty copper corrosion will start... ...that'd be a pisser, Murphy's Law steps right in as GTS observes...but worse, something like that is easier to find when shorted...ie; unplug bulb and fuse, and put multimeter in continuity mode so you get constant beep, and carefully poke about hoping to find if some movemet of the harness stop the beeping.... ...it's still all a bit Arnie tho' ..It'll be back... 😃
    • Yeah, but knowledge of one wire's insulation worn through to short on earth implies the possibility of other wires doing the same. I had my power steering die, because the wire that runs to the solenoid valve on the rack runs in the same loom as the power wire for the O2 sensor. And when the O2 sensor/wire did something stupid and burnt part of that loom to death, the only indication was the shit(ter) fuel economy and the heavy steering. It took deep excavation of the looms in the bay to find the problem. Not wear through in that case, but similar shit.
    • Ah, I thought he'd wired it to one of the spare ECU inputs! Too long ago since I read that post, ha ha. I've been arguing with radiators, harmonic balancers, alternators and rust since reading it.
