ive had a really good look at one of these cars.

luxury is such an understatment for this car! other then only being a 4ltr v8 its so vip!

the guy advertising this car has not listed everything this has probably not even close to everything they have!

automatic window shades, a computer that sences the white lines on the side of the road to drive for you, it can brake for you when it gets close to something, the back seat recline, full bar style setup in the back, air cleaning thing (donno why) and heaps more. it was pretty crazy for a car a few years old!

EDIT: just had a look at the pic, its the cheaper version of the new cima's. the one i looked at had 19's standard and heaps of weird but cool stuff init that youd probably never use :)

wouldnt be fun changing a plug or doing the most simple of tasks on an engine like that.

I :) F50 cima's... they're the pinnacle of Nissan baller cars. You can actually hear the sound of sloppy lips if you get a blowy while you drive it... unlike in the skyline.

f**kin rad cars, be such an awesome cruiser.

had an air purifier in my celsior (removed it to fit the subs), you gotta remember, not every market has clean air like australia does, so an air purifier comes in handy in those places.

from what i was told they come with optional bullet proof rear windows too but to get complied obviously have to be removed over here. Theres one in Sinergey motorsport there asking $50k+ for it when its coimplied HA i saw one on j-spec $25k landed and complied

when your in the back seat on the passenger side the front seat has this little flap that u pull down in the middle of the seat, so when your in the back you can recline the back seat and put your feet through too the front!

The reason for this is that you're not supposed to drive an F50, but be driven in one, so only your chauffer would sit in front. So if you really had to have a nap while travelling you could stretch out.

I'm thinking of bringing down a Gloria or Cedric C35 to replace my ceffy as the daily... but the F50 is very tempting.... esp as they're in a very similar price range these days. Local prices are still miles high as dealers here think they can sell them off as Infiniti Q45's.

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      One thing I can tell you is, do it properly the first time. If you encounter unexpected problems just let the car sit for a week or two if you have to get some other parts or figure stuff out.  I'd have said go and use as many OEM parts as possible but since you want to change the turbo later on a custom kit is probably the better choice. Since I have no experience with RB25 just compare parts diagrams and images before buying a line kit and it should be easy to see if it has everything you need. Amayama has very good parts diagrams and part number lists, that is what I used a bunch to figure out what I might need. And don't forget to plan ahead and possibly renew other stuff that's easy to get to while you're in there doing the turbo lines. Happy wrenching

      Update 4:   Hi all, good news. Engine is running and all the gaskets and seals seem to be working as intended. No leaks so far, even the JB Weld seems to hold. I flushed out the old coolant a few times and put in fresh coolant, not Nissan stuff, I decided to try the Ravenol Protect FL22, they claim it works for a wide variety of JDM cars and the opinions on it by some people were pretty good. And it has the nice poison green color! And man am I glad I bought a coolant system tester earlier this year, vacuum filling works wonders on this engine. I can definitely recommend this to anyone still doing it the old school way. All you need is compressed air supply. Will have to do a small test drive as soon as I can, I removed the gauge cluster again as the tacho needle was still bouncing around a bit but it was much better than before already.  I also found some cracks on all 4 tires inner and outer sidewalls. Apparently these tires should 't be parked on for extended periods or be kept under 0 degrees during storage, which I did not know. Clearly the previous owner didn't look into those details either, he probably bought them just cause they are cool semi-slicks. I'm just wondering how tf I am supposed to reach 30-80 degree tire temperatures on the public road consistenly, these tires were never going to work for my use case. I'll probably order Continental SportContact7 ones as these are the best allround summer tire available right now and I don't think I'll need anything crazier for now. Do let me know if you have experience with various tires and which ones you recommend.

      Not going to pretend I didn't do a bit of junky work this time around, but mostly due to the fact that some things I am not willing to spend days fixing right now, like wiring. I try to do most things properly the first time around.

      Regardless of neglect or incompetence, fixing either is tedious and annoying. Most of the neglect on my car is definitely rust. I hope I can at least pass inspections later on and they won't fail the car due to slightly corroded hardlines. I was generous with rust converter and wax and it looks ok, most lines in the rear are hard to see properly anyways.  Definitely will test them though to make sure they don't rupture under pressure, in that case the car isn't going anywhere this year.
