Hi Guys

Since getting my Bayside Blue S2 a year ago, I have been somewhat amazed that there aren't any others in WA. At least not that i know of.

As far as i can estimate there are only 4 in Australia!!

I'd be interested to know how many there really are.....

They certainly don't come up that often in Auctions in Japan either.

It kinda defies logic to think that Nissan offered the colour as an option and hardly anyone took it up.

If you are listing ..... please put up your model type..... I know there is one RS4S on here, which is super rare, and one or two RS's.

I think that there is an RS for sale in SA.

So lets start the head count.

Mine

RS4V 2000 Prime edition.

Cheers

John

One here in South Aus at Sinergy Motorsport, $21,990. Not much of a fan of its interior...

Well it's actually an RS Prime, 2wd wrongly advertised as an RS4. I have now written to the dealer and pointed this out so that some poor unsuspecting buyer, doesn't wonder why it breaks away on the rear so easy!

Oh and the interior.... exactly the same as mine.... a Prime edition. Leather & Wood...... but it OK, 'cos I love it. :laugh:

Don't know if this is any help but of 1568 Stageas searched, only 8 of them where Bayside... .05%?

Prime Ed FTW!

Hmmm Interesting, what do these figures relate to? Is this the number complied in Aus?

Or are these the total Prime Editions?

I'd be interested to know. Also can you put you hands on the total production figures, and maybe for each type.

That's be great.

BTW where are you located.... not much info in you Avatar.

Thanks

They are ones I could find for sale in Japan atm.

It is not specific to prime editions (sorry about the throw off, I just like them)

I do not have total production figures, but if somebody asked Nissan Japan nicely the might tell you?

Further info on Bayside which I have deduced which kept the numbers down (this may or may not be true open to correction)

No series I came in it

Early series II came in dark blue pearl (BP9)

Bayside (TV2) came in approx June 2000 onward and only was available in RS models

and deleted in the M35 (Oct 2001)

So really there were only about 17 months of them

also, According to Japanese Red book, Pearl white and Black offer the greatest resale value therefore they may prefer to purchase these...

Hope this is helpful

But after searching the auctions saw this.....

And sure enough the Auction sheet lists it as BP9..... love to see one in the flesh.... unfortunately this one is non-turbo, so wont be heading our way. :rofl:

And don't forget that physics-defying-opens-both-ways centre console!

There was a R34 fronted one in Melbourne, but given what was done to it, I would suspect it was a respray...

Something else that I noticed on this Blue Pearl one, is a different badge on the rear......

or has someone done some "customising" by splitting the ordinary badge up, 'cos it kinda looks like this one is sporting an Infinity badge too.

I can't get the photo any larger.

    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
