Its been quite fun and loyal these last few years, but I may be looking to move on to something a bit more newer - still under the $20k mark.

I am looking at getting a 2002 (or above) Liberty (RX) - Whats ur opinions on libertys, in terms of reliability, handling, holding its value and general comments on the car?

owww sad that u maybe leaving the nissan family... libertys hold their value well. they arent gutless and hold the road well..... all in all they are a very well rounded car... try get a manual tho that way it will keep its fun factor and u wont get bored with it. also the interriors are well styled...... maybe also look at mitsubishi 1998 galant or legnum.... and maybe r34 gtt?? still keep ur power and styline

good luck

If your selling you obviously haven't modded it.

I personally wouldn't consider selling mine unless it were growing huge rust holes. Simply because I have a daily and its the 'fun/thrash' r32 rb30det car is cheap that is as reliable as all buggery. I've owned modified commodores etc and they do not like the higher levels of power; they break. :rofl:

One reason I wouldn't consider selling it is because its pretty much one of the lightest R32's made so it always spanks the r33's and r34's making similar power.

The heavier the car the more power is required the more expensive the clutch the more lag is required etc.. :D

      Some troubleshooting, connect up a timing light/gun with a proper ignition lead on coil 1. Hold the revs at 4~4500rpm and see if your timing is all over the shop, scattering off its tits. If so, there's a high chance your CAS is fked. But I read you have a Link ECU ready to go in, why not just skip all this and put that in - will make troubleshooting so much easier.

      Misfires when the car is fully warm are generally attributed to the coils (and/or the igniter, on cars with a separate igniter). They can stop working properly when they get hot for a number of reasons. Either electric/electronic, or from thermal expansion opening up gaps and allowing HV leakage. Seeing as you have replaced the coils, that could/should rule them out. But I wouldn't always assume so. Were the coils genuine? Or is there a chance you have bought some counterfeit Chinesium shit? Then we're back onto loom connections. They can fail when warm/hot for the same reasons. Inspections, cleaning of contact surfaces, ensuring that terminals are fully inserted, etc etc, are all justified. The same (heat effects) holds true for the other electrics and their connectors. AFM & CAS, primarily. If you try that Chinesium AFM, drive it around on low load until it is properly hot, but do'nt give it more load than you have to, except when you need to see if it will still miss. I'm dead serious about the untrustworthiness of the calibration of those copy AFMs. Injectors are unlikely to get hot unless the fuel is coming back around hot. You could try squirting them with compressed air or freeze spray to cool them back down to see if they are maybe the cause.

      Alright, all the plugs looks good. Noticed that it starts to get bad when the car is up to temp, that's when things starts to misfire hard. next to do is Injector cleaning and such. Got in touch with a shop to do work on the injectors next Monday also help on diagnosis.

      Hence why I've only modified my car into a pure daily. Everything has to remain reliable & roadworthy, while providing value and grin factor. It also must not be handcrafted to the extent that the car will be immovable if something breaks because you cannot get or make a replacement to at least limp around with.
