Basically, the car is a Nissan pintara Ti, it's the highest version so it has all you electric windows and cruise control and whatnot, impressive for a 1991 car. Anyway the car is one of the most economical cars you'll find, it has dual fuel running a very weak gas, the car initially was not able to be converted to gas due to the engine size and only EZYGAS™ would do it, despite faults in the mixer it now runs smoothly and very weak, making it insanely economical. The car gives you anywhere between 380-430 km's on a tank, normally I fill up when my speedo sees 400km but give it a kick and it sees 380. car costs 83 cents for 10km's, that's only $2 more per 100km's then a brand new hybrid Toyota prius, so… I was initially going to keep this car as a daily driver and grab a GTR or a GTT soon but now my logic has got me leaning towards house deposits and all that grown-up crap id have to face one day or another.

Faults with the car:

Dint in the driver side door, (200 bucks for a new door whatever)

Front left light is weaker then the right

Back right tire loses air pretty easily

Mods (guess I can call em mods…?)

New TIMING CHAIN replaced, $750 bucks, receipts to prove

Super gas conversion $2750 receipted of course.

Front tires replaced: receipts somewhere

The car has a insane sound system worth close to 2k, it has twin 12 inch subs, big amp, front/rear speakers and a mp3 ipod head unit. Without sound system the car is a firm 4000, with the sound system its 5000.

The car runs impressively new, come for a look, tire kick all you want, I'm in no way shape or form desperate to sell this economic car, pics will be provided soon if theres interest, so if you go a turbo, GTR and need a cheap daily driver, here it is, not desperate in the slightest, let me know if your interested.

mate for $4000 your dreaming...

i just had one in better nic, new JDM engine etc and couldnt sell it for $1500 with RWC & rego...

it got rammed by some lebs on speed, so i sold it in parts for $1800

join up on antrx.com (pintara specific forum) and build up your posts then have a crack at selling it there....

you might get a better idea on what these go for too...

I know it's a bit steep but mind you i've spend heaps on making the car as fuel economical as possible, and the things i've done outweigh the price of the car. :D This is a major fuel saver. And at the same time I'm not desperate.

BUMP.

8 bucks per 100km's.

Forgot to mention it has had the injectors replaced (2 of them) and filtered, new air flow much more, everything has been done to make this car as fuel economic as possible, cheap as piss to drive and has been taken care of internally!, the car has a new cluster forgot to mention and things will come to mind as i think about them. Very solid car.

    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
    • Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!
    • Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
