find one thing wrong with this car

the offset is simply stunning, not to mention i love those rims

full black leather interior with CVT

do you reckon i could get around $30,000 for my car when it gets here? :P

Edited by Midnight x

so is there anything happening with your cars guys?

i would really like mine to be here, im sick of driving a corolla (except filling it up for $35 a week :D)

the new eta for mine is the 7th March in brisbane

i have been doing a bit of research for rim sizes and fitment for the Y34's, which may i add is hard when there is next to none around here or in the US.

but i found this car on VSC.com in the US.

he has

19 x 9.5 +25 on the fronts running 235/35/19

20 x 9.5 +20 on the rears running 245/35/20, which need either camber or a roll to not rub

so i reckon a 19 x 10.5 +20 would fit on the back pretty easy with a bit of a roll, 235 tyres and maybe some camber

the guy was just running lowered springs and the front rims cleared the struts by only 3mm or so.

haha yes....

we have to get some big power figures and some VIP going on and maybe others will be interested.

btw, i picked up a set of insurance group lowered springs for $340 delivered off yahoo japan, BARGAIN :D

Nope, I'm interested! I love performance plus luxury options, and HSV's just don't do it for me. A friend of mine in NZ had a Nissan Infiniti and god damn was it nice. It pissed on most Skylines and yet when doing 120kmh it felt like you were barely moving inside. Then he put on a louder exhaust. Twit.

The Cedric looks hot but please don't lower it to stupid levels, and for god's sake, de-badge the bastard! CEDRIC? GLORIA? SYLVIA? Bloody Nissan...

When there are a few more of these in the country I'll be getting one. Being different is one thing but getting parts is another. Keep us informed boys!

the names have stuck since the early 1960's when they were first produced, Glorias were made by Prince Motor Co and Cedric made by nissan. Cedric is named after a Hero in a fairytale that the President of nissan read and Gloria... well yeah dont know about that one :(

i guess it could be a help with the sleeper thing, all the trev's will tease you about the name but when you blow them away with a handful of mods then you can laugh at them.

my mates tease me about the name already and i havent even got the car yet... i will show them (one in particular with a vx ss)

hey all, thought that i might start writing on here aswell if thats ok, i have got a 2002 gloria gran turismo ultima that is about 2 weeks away from arriving at my house in W.A. Really excited, if anyone as any info about mods i would really love it. cheers all

Linkorban...

sorry Kristian was a oneoff set

the RRP is 29,800 yen and the yahoo buy it now was 12,800 including shipping in japan and taxes

they are coming by ship though so the eta is 6-9 weeks

EMS was an extra $150 so i figured i could wait

Yes they are SSR LM9.

My mate got a set priced up from Streeter for his aristo

19 x 9 +20

19 x 10 +15

295,000 yen which at todays rate is $4540 before shipping and then tyres

well worth the money though in my opinion, but i will be waiting till the yen weakens a bit before buying brand new rims

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
