Price drop to $16K.

It's going without the NOS Kit for $16k and $17k with it.

CONDITION:

102,000kms regular servicing including transmission and diff.

Presently the car has a crease in the rear bumper and a few minor scratches, which will cost about $500-600 to clean up properly and the price reflects this. Interior is good. and it has a factory 7disc CD stacker/tuner and drivers airbag.

MODS.

* K&N Airfilter and modified airbox

* HKS exhaust cam gear

* Ogura Racing Chrome Molly flywheel

* 9 puck ceramic compound clutch

* FGK Super Ti cat back exhaust (very quiet and flows well)

* Custom Stainless steel turbo dump pipe and front pipe, with thermal wrapping.

* Apexi Super AFC II and sought after 95' ecu

* Peltier cooler on standard intercooler.

* Whiteline KCA349 diff cradle kit.

* Bosch Motorsport in tank fuel pump

* NOS EFI Nitrous kit (hidden underbonet) with 10lb bottle and 100hp jets. New nitrous solenoid.

The last outing saw the car run 13.3 and has since had a major tuning issue resolved which will has it making easy 12 second power. With larger decent rear tyres fitted 12's will not be a problem without NOS. The NOS activation offers the potential for low 12's and with the simple fittment of the 100hp jet an 11second pass.

morboost,

I'm afraid I can't ask more than $16k for it, otherwise I pay capital gains tax on the sale next financial. It's just a bit of a 'freak deal', most of the time 95' models like mine will go for over $21k (you can quote me on that for people with issues on your price).

if it's 100% business use claimed like mine. I tell the tax dept. that my car is worth less each year and get a deduction out of it. If all of a sudden I sell my car for 6K more than I told them it was worth last year they make me pay tax on the profit as a form of income.

why sell it that cheap now when i sell my car people will be like but i can get one with nos for $17,000 please put the price up to at least $21,000 thanx

lol.. considering its all tax purposes, somebody's gonna get a bargain..

post a pic rev210 so we can all look at this creature.. Not that i'm going to buy it (as i have an R33 already)...but a pic always helps on a sale :D

???? I don't follow your thinking. If you sell it for what it's worth, then you make a profit, of which you pay (up to) 48% in tax. You still keep (at least) 52% of the profit. It's still money in your pocket.

If it's written down value is $16k, and you sell it for $21k, you pay (about) $2500 tax, so end up with $18.5k out of the deal. If you sell it for $16k, then you pay no CGT, but end up with only $16k in your pocket. I know which I'd rather have.

Warps,

I need lots of help this financial to drop into a lower tax bracket, as my car is paid for via a 'car allowance' that attracts no tax throughout the year, if deductions aren't low enough then big tax payments are order of the day.

there is no cgt on cars however if its written down value is $16 and u sell for more ( say 18 k ) u pay normal income tax on the 2k , if u sell for 14 k u deduct the 2 k loss from u r income so less tax .

u dont tell the ato what u r car is worth every year either , this is how u work out its value .

full purchase price and u depriciate it 22.5 % every year , if u bought today for 20 k in three years its value ( for tax purporses ) it will be $9309 .

what some people do ( i'm not saying that u should do this its not moral or legal )say sell the car for $12k get the buyer to pay a cheque for 9 k and 3 k cash , the pocket the 3 k and no one knows .

    • Actually, that's not entirely true. It's also the same motor in the 1st gen Nissan Cube but they're rare as hen's teeth.  
    • Yeah it is always worth testing and balancing actuators out of the box, just set the pressure regulator on a compressor very low (eg 5 psi) and increase it slowly to see when they both move.....unfortunately while you may be able to adjust the length of the actuator rod to minimise any difference, the actual pressure they move from is not adjustable so you need a well matched pair. And yes, the VCAM is probably contributing; the earlier in the rev range they come on boost and the slower the revs build (I think your demo was in 5th), the more you notice it.  Driving at WOT through 1st, 2nd, 3rd etc you will probably never hear it as any shuffling starts and is over super quickly
    • oh they were with that motor, you need to remove the engine to change the spark plugs (don't have to, but it does make it easier)
    • I certainly fall into the annoyed camp, but glad to hear that if it's happening at low boost then I'm not likely going to blow a turbo and end up with metal shards in my oil. Just feels like it prevents me from really driving it without hesitation and "peak" performance. Wonder if it's the VCAM, it did an impressive job of shifting the torque curve and faster spool, but maybe now it's "too fast" and there's too much air for how open the throttle is.  Based on some other threads, will also do some reading on synchronizing the actuators. They are the default actuators that come on the Garrett's and I would think they would be set the same coming from the factory, but if the turbos don't actually work exactly the same way at the same time as previously mentioned, it would be worth making sure the actuators are actuating together properly
    • I went down this rabbit hole before, ended up sourcing a motor from the UK (I'm in Japan) which also didn't function correctly. With the original motor, I disassembled it and reassembled it and it works somewhat, sometimes. What I could deduce from all my screwing around is that there is calibration of the gears on the inside of the motor and two ramps on the main gear which activate switches that operate the motor and move the sunroof either to retract into the roof or tilt. Where I got stuck was that, it seemed in my case that one or both of the switches that are activated by the ramp on the gear did not always activate and thus the motor did not move, causing it to sometimes not retract or tilt (apologies, I've forgotten which way it didn't work.).  Of course this part is discontinued at Nissan now, it's the same part in the S15 but no other models. I also contacted the manufacturer of the component for schematics - forgot the name, they're based in Gifu - but they declined to share the information due to being bound by an NDA, sadly. Looking through my pictures now, it seems I last had a crack at this in 2022. See, I so kindly wrote "open" and "close" next to the switches. If you figure it out, please do tell me. Those little switches, with the red buttons may need to be replaced.
