Ok, I bought this truck in Japan as it was super clean and in excellent condition and had just been recently added to the SEVS register. It has 150,000kms on it and has service receipts for services that were carried out EVERY 10,000kms or less. That is pretty rare to get such a complete service history with a car or truck, and it has quite low kms. It's a 4.2litre diesel and has a 5 speed manual transmission. It also has exhaust brake (compression brake) which can be switched on or off. It seats 3 up front and has awesome Air-con and heater. Has power steering too. The truck can take over 2,000kgs of goods. I used it to carry some important parts across from japan to aus. It has an aluminium pantec body and is in great condition, it has closeable vents on both sides, and drainage in the floor. It also has a nice big light in the back. and big lockable doors. It comes with 2 spare tyres (1 front 1 rear) and all the jacks etc. you can fit 4-5 full size pallets in the back. It has alloy rails too.

The best bit is it can be driven on a road licence as it's just under the limit for when a heavy vehicle licence is needed and it's easy to drive. oh, it also has one other cool feature, when you reverse as well as the standard reverse beeper it has a japanese ladies voice on loudspeaker that says "the truck is reversing". hehe.

oh, of course it's fully registered and complied. and I just bought new batterys for it costing $350!

I will check the measurements for you Aaron.

It was big enough to fit:

2 X R34 N1 Nur crate motors (each on their own full size pallet)

1 set of carbon fibre R34 GTR wide body rear quarters

1 set of carbon R34 wide body front guard

1 set of carbon Super GT style skirts

1 garage kagotani GT front bumper and carnards

1 garage kagotani front under tray diffuser

1 trust intercooler kit for S13

4 X R32 GTR wheels with tyres

1 X bar table

1 X 18X13inch Super GT magnesium TE37

2 X truck spare wheels

1 X C-west carbon fibre GT wing and gurney flap

lots of other little bits too (like GTR plenum, throttles, cam gears, springs etc etc)

and still had some room in there for more. it would be perfect as a moving truck or delivery truck, or as a support vehicle for race track use. It can carry a whole lot of stuff, but still very easy to drive and park, and legal on a regular licence.

it also has an electric folding side mirror too which is pretty cool for a truck!

I'm not really sure, but this one would be pretty easy to convert. it already has the thick doors that seal air tight with rubber seals and the doors interlock.

Cheers Baron,Im more interested in the length of the chassis rails.Long enough to carry a r32 once converted to flatbed?

I'm actually surprised you aren't using it for that purpose.

I would love to, it would make a very good tow vehicle with big torque from the 4.2l diesel. I will do a quick measure of the chassis and get back to you. :) I wish I could keep it, but truth be told I just can't afford to. I already have access to a tow vehicle and trailer and with limited funds just can't afford to hang onto this baby. :whistling:

Better make that:

3/ Does it share engine, body, driveline bits with anything domestic? Grey import support for Nissan/UD trucks is pretty farking woeful but would be a piece of piss if it was common with something sold here.

will get the dimensions for you Adrian. :)

To the best of my knowledge it is an isuzu 200 sold in japan as a nissan atlas 200. so parts should not be a problem. anyone will be shocked how clean this truck is, it drives like brand new, and you could seriously eat off the undercarriage. in fact looking at isuzu nkr 200 it looks identical. and some net research reveals the atlas is built by isuzu.

to get a good idea of the scale of the rear space, that pallet in the pics is a normal full sized pallet and on it is a Nissan RB26 crate motor on it's wooden crate. I would say 4 pallets easy, but probably fit 5 pallets. It also has bars that fit into the groves on the walls to creat partitions. The little alloy runners on the floor can also be easily removed. Has a good flurescent light in the back too.

Anyway, here's a lot more pics.

oh, and the 18X13 inch wheel was off a Suepr GT Nismo GTR. souveneir purposes. :) though if I buy 3 more they would go nicely on the GTR.. lol.

couldn't get the measurements yet. i've been working late so when I get home it's cold and dark and i'm knackered. so the motovation to poke around in the dark is not strong enough to pull me away from the couch and heater!

I did pull out the log books though.

man it's got good service history.

I had it serviced at compliance with new filters, and elf oils and I think they did brakes too (will check that). It's currently showing 155,576 and that service was done at 155,550 (so it's done 26kms since). The last service in japan was done at 154,356! So it did a whopping 1,000kms between the last 2 services. before that it was 145,278 before that it was 137,020 before that 128,421 before that? 119,450. I think you get the idea. this thing was serviced every 10,000kms or less since new. and they are all the proper full services with the dockets all attached to the log book. Flicking through the book the first service I have down was done at 1,117kms and the second at 6,820kms. very complete history. :P

here we go. just for interest I took a few scans. first is the front cover of the service book. next is the first page showing the chassis number etc. next is one of the thick stack of service dockets. This is the most recent one.

Can vouch for these being great trucks! We used a tilt tray one for a couple of years dragging a 33 race car up and down the east coast. Quite ecenomical and pretty comfy all things considered :rolleyes: Good luck with it Baron!

cheers. :blink:

I did the measurements on the weekend. I did them by myself and needed one hand to hold my beer so they aren't exacly accurate to the milimeter but pretty close.

The back is over 4 meters long and about 1.85m wide. the ceiling height is 1.75m. overall length is 5.4m and from memory overall height is 2.4m high. Sorry it's a bit hazy, I didn't have a pen either and i did do it 24 hours ago, so I'm asking a lot of the ol memory bank!

    • Well GTSBoy, prepare yourself further. I did a track day with 1/2 a day prep on Friday, inpromptu. The good news is that I got home, and didn't drive the car into a wall. Everything seemed mostly okay. The car was even a little faster than it was last time. I also got to get some good datalog data too. I also noticed a tiny bit of knock which was (luckily?) recorded. All I know is the knock sensors got recalibrated.... and are notorious for false knock. So I don't know if they are too sensitive, not sensitive enough... or some other third option. But I reduced timing anyway. It wasn't every pull through the session either. Think along the lines of -1 degree of timing for say, three instances while at the top of 4th in a 20 minute all-hot-lap session. Unfortunately at the end of session 2... I noticed a little oil. I borrowed some jack stands and a jack and took a look under there, but as is often the case, messing around with it kinda half cleaned it up, it was not conclusive where it was coming from. I decided to give it another go and see how it was. The amount of oil was maybe one/two small drops. I did another 20 minute session and car went well, and I was just starting to get into it and not be terrified of driving on track. I pulled over and checked in the pits and saw this: This is where I called it, packed up and went home as I live ~20 min from the track with a VERY VERY CLOSE EYE on Oil Pressure on the way home. The volume wasn't much but you never know. I checked it today when I had my own space/tools/time to find out what was going on, wanted to clean it up, run the car and see if any of the fittings from around the oil filter were causing it. I have like.. 5 fittings there, so I suspected one was (hopefully?) the culprit. It became immediately apparent as soon as I looked around more closely. 795d266d-a034-4b8c-89c9-d83860f5d00a.mp4       This is the R34 GTT oil sender connected via an adapter to an oil cooler block I have installed which runs AN lines to my cooler (and back). There's also an oil temp sensor on top.  Just after that video, I attempted to unthread the sensor to see if it's loose/worn and it disintegrated in my hand. So yes. I am glad I noticed that oil because it would appear that complete and utter catastrophic engine failure was about 1 second of engine runtime away. I did try to drill the fitting out, and only succeeded in drilling the middle hole much larger and now there's a... smooth hole in there with what looks like a damn sleeve still incredibly tight in there. Not really sure how to proceed from here. My options: 1) Find someone who can remove the stuck fitting, and use a steel adapter so it won't fatigue? (Female BSPT for the R34 sender to 1/8NPT male - HARD to find). IF it isn't possible to remove - Buy a new block ($320) and have someone tap a new 1/8NPT in the top of it ($????) and hope the steel adapter works better. 2) Buy a new block and give up on the OEM pressure sender for the dash entirely, and use the supplied 1/8 NPT for the oil temp sender. Having the oil pressure read 0 in the dash with the warning lamp will give me a lot of anxiety driving around. I do have the actual GM sensor/sender working, but it needs OBD2 as a gauge. If I'm datalogging I don't actually have a readout of what the gauge is currently displaying. 3) Other? Find a new location for the OEM sender? Though I don't know of anywhere that will work. I also don't know if a steel adapter is actually functionally smart here. It's clearly leveraged itself through vibration of the motor and snapped in half. This doesn't seem like a setup a smart person would replicate given the weight of the OEM sender. Still pretty happy being lucky for once and seeing this at the absolute last moment before bye bye motor in a big way, even if an adapter is apparently 6 weeks+ delivery and I have no way to free the current stuck/potentially destroyed threads in the current oil block.
    • Literally looks like direct port nitrous haha
    • They are in fact just nozzles. They are there only to produce a spray pattern and limit flow. The injector itself is what I use to control flow to the 7x nozzles. My old system had no injector and only PWM the pump. This lead to a lot of inconsistencies, and poor atomization at low pressure when the pump was ramping up.
