Also Ben,

Can you PM me details for that translation thing you have. I want it. Cant for the life of me work out what half of it is. I have worked out what each option is on the display unit, but want to know more about it all.

And how the freak do i change the time on the clock? I cant find anything to change it at all.

You'll need to throw $20 in my account and i'll send you the document. It doesnt cover everything, but covers most of the important stuff :P

No idea about the clock. I cant work it out either.

just complied the new Cedric "parts car". Needed some new trimming on the A-pillar and an auto fluid change, but apart from that she's running brilliant! Its got the Cima style dropping centre section of the passenger seat so the rear passenger can throw his/her legs through!

Heated seats, reverse sensors, cruise control, electric everything. Only 4 things from the factory options its missing. Leather seats, reverse camera, sunroof and xenons.

It will be sold for a bargain, not to decrease the price bracket of these wonderful cars, but so i can find another box. The black one is still on the hoist and im sick of seeing it with half its guts out.

Check the for sale section in a few days and you might see a bargain of the century!

Ben

put it up on www.aus-vip.com if you can, or i can for you, would be good to see someone take it and watch it be modded on there

32 4whore, would be good to see you there too with a members ride thread

whats the news with you Kristian, found that black one yet?

anyone want some fluid for your tranny?

These tranny's recommend the J Matic fluid, which this castrol stuff is meant to be for.

Apparently only comes in 3x4litre packs or Repco recon its a 20L drum.

Thats exactly the same as mine. So, you can buy mine instead. Slight gearbox issue, with it being in peices, but still a bargain! :P

I now own a supra RZ and a daihatsu mira as a daily and the mrs drives her echo. Add to that the latest cedric and the black cedric a 350K mortgage and a baby coming in 5 months and it equalls a lot of car expenses! Especially since the wife wont be working for a few months after the birth.

Plan is to sell the new cedric for 12Kish and buy another to put the box in the black cedric. Then when its on the road sell the mira and drive the cedric as a daily. I will most likely advertise it for 20K and see what happens. If it doesnt sell, then i wont care. This project has cost me well over 30K so far. I hope to get at least some money back.

i would stay clear of that one. Although it passed compliance, it has had minor accident history. Bonnet is diffenately been replaced and a few other bits and peices.

The guy sells everything at or below cost price when he doesnt get rid of it within a few weeks, so it doesnt surprise me its going this cheap.

Interesting thread here, guys... keep up the research! I'm looking at a Gloria to replace my V35s (one has sold, the other is on the market), and have been more than impressed with what I have read of them so far, and it's time for a change again...

mine is for sale :( Going to put some pics up soon. It needs some minor panel repairs, but she's in good nick.

After 12Kono as is. No rego or safety certificate as my last gloria is still registered in my name because NSW transport lost my qld number plates and qld wont cancel the rego.

I'd be interested in that: love those cars! I couldn't stop staring at the Infinity M45s wherever we went when I was in the 'States earlier in the year...

farrk ebay is full of fraud these days. I've had 6 emails from different non members asking to buy it and a link to say that someone retracted a bid and to click here to login and check the history. Turned out to be bollucks. Glad i didnt sign into the link. Very nicely done though, looks exactly like ebay.

email:

the grammar in that email makes it suss, engineers know how to talk properly (or should do after 4 years at uni)

sucks that things like this happen

i can put the car up on aus-vip if you want, there are a few people interested in them

ok, maybe someone can help me out here...

over the last few days in the cold weather my cluster has been flickering and turning off for brief periods of time.

today on my way to uni, the cluster turned off for about 10 minutes while i was driving, which also caused the check engine light to come on. so on my way home i stopped in at my mechanics workshop to see if anything was wrong with the engine. i knew it was to do with the cluster dying but just wanted to make sure.

i asked him to hook up nissan consult to it and it came back with a speed sensor error, so he reset it and that got rid of the check engine light. so i decided to take the cluster out when i got home. on the way home i noticed that the power steering also cut out when the instrument cluster did. this leads me to believe i have a loose earth somewhere that is causing the problems.

when i got home, i pulled out the cluster (which is surprisingly easy to do) and played with all the plugs, and it still flashes, so its not that.

any ideas on where the earth could be if its just the instrument cluster power and power steering?

BTW the LCD still works all the time

Does anyone on here know the part numbers for Brake Pads and Rotors.

I dont have the time during the day to take the pads out and messure them up or the rotors. Very Very busy at work.

And when i get home im too buggered to have a look.

My rotors are fwarped and terrible. I want to get better brakes and rotors.

If anyone has the part numbers please let me know.

Cheers,

Brenton

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
