Hi everyone

Im getting rid of a Holden Gemini for a family friend. It has been with them since 1987. Details as follows.

1984 Gemini SL

Manual

290.000kms

Blue/Grey Colour

Rego until end of July '08

General Info:

It is far from perfect but has been a reliable car for over 20 years. The paint is is need of attention, as is the rear drivers tail light. Minor surface rust in the usual places associated with older cars such as in the boot sill area and slight surface rust on the roof etc. The engine leaks oil quite a bit and has been doing so for a while and not caused any problems so far. Tyres are fairly new with plenty of tread left on them. Interior is as expected, pretty old and dirty, with worn out carpet and so on. Its CHEAP!!!

Looking for $800 or offers

Located about 30mins south of Sydney.

Cheers

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
