  • Tinted windows - good quality T35 metallic tint, professionally done ~3 years ago

  • Comfy as!
  • Selling UNREGISTERED (ran out of rego a couple of weeks ago)
  • Car is located on the north side of Brisbane
  • $1500 ono - make me an offer!

Reason for sale

We have two other cars and a bike so I really don't need the Cressida any more, and it's killing the grass :rofl: I bought the car a few years ago as a comfy commuter and it did the job beautifully, but we've moved onto a newer daily driver and could use the proceeds from selling the Cressida around the house.

Other info

It's like riding a pillow - it really is the most comfortable car I've ever driven. It won't set the world alight but that's really missing the point - that said, they do suit JZ engine swaps extremely well, making it the ideal sleeper!

It isn't perfect though, the paint on the roof is a little cracked and it has a miss at idle. I haven't done any checking so it could be as simple as a fouled plug or a dead plug lead. I also suspect it has a small intake leak, which I haven't looked for. The auto works better when it's warm - when it's cold it sometimes sticks in 1st gear. The tacho doesn't always work (just a loose connection as sometimes a tap on the dash will fix it) and a previous owner broke the clips holding the section of the dash below the steering wheel on, it's currently held on with tape as I've been too lazy to find a new one. The steering wheel needs replacement as the foam has separated from the wheel.

To be honest it probably doesn't need much done to it, but I don't have the time or motivation to do it. As a result, you get a very cheap car that needs a little work. All it should need for roadworthy is a steering wheel, fix the miss, and secure the dash panel below the steering wheel. As far as I know, everything else is legal. It was registered up until the 11th of July and I haven't renewed it as I don't drive it much any more.

Price is $1500 ono as-is, unregistered. You'll need to bring a car trailer, tow truck, or trade plate to get it home legally. If you're quick I may be able to assist with cheap towing.

Contact

I can be contacted by PM or you can just post in here, or you can PM me for my phone number.

I can't believe nobody wants a cheap luxo barge!

Don't be put off by the imperfections, I think you'll find that a lot of second-hand cars have problems, the seller just doesn't tell you about them. I'm being as up-front as I can with this sale, so you shouldn't get any surprises.

Come on fellas, you know you want it, make me an offer, I need it gone!

G'day.

Have you thought of putting this ad on jxz100.com? Lots of the Chaser boys like these old girls.

And yes with a 1JZ or 2JZ you have possibly the ultimate sleeper.

Tell you what, I will throw a link in the for sale forum over there for you.

I used to drive a R33, but now I have gone over to the dark side...

cheers

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure

      Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.

      Starter motor replacment teeth count.

      By oHBoy. · Posted

      Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15

      J50 clock date suddenly reset to January 1

      Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      By niZmO_Man · Posted

      8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
