I am selling a 1996 Series 1 Stagea.

It has very low compression in first cylinder (30psi)

The car has 117000km on it and is standard except for:

Hybrid front mount intercooler

Pod air filter

18 inch Rodney Jane wheels and brand new tyres

Microtech LT10 computer

As you can see from the pictures car is very straight and interior is in excellent condition. Transmission also works well.

I purchased this car from Queensland 4 weeks ago and drove it back to Canberra. A change in circumstances means that I can't afford a replacement motor. The car is sitting at Trojan Motorsport in Canberra at the moment, at this stage I may need to leave it with them as a wreck (if they are interested). I need to make a decision about the car by Tuesday 10th March so I am open to offers. I would prefer to sell the whole car but if I have enough interest, i'll sell parts.

Give me a call on 0421 499 699. The car is drivable and I am more than happy to assist with delivery. Looking for around $4500 for the car as a ball park.

I drove it from the Gold Coast to Canberra when I thought it was an engine management issue but I think I was lucky. The motor is blowing a bit of oil back through the turbo at higher revs. I have been driving it around Canberra but I wouldn't want to try to drive it too far. I'd love to say it would be fine, so that someone would buy it, but knowing that the problem is worse than I origonally thought I probably wouldn't trust it for a long trip.

    • Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out
    • Talk about noisy. Even when I still had the Tomei under the car I could distinctly hear the tires rolling. And I doubt I ever will need maximum grip like on a track. My GTR will maybe never even see the 600hp mark and I need to get used to the car quite a bit before challenging the limits of its handling. For the next winter storage I think I will get a set of these rubber drive-on thingies that have a tire shaped base. Those supposedly really help prevent flat spots.
    • Well our climate is definitely way less hot overall and the weather can be quite picky at times. I just know that during normal road use or even spirited drives there is no way I'd be able to consistently stay in the operating temperature, and constantly changing the tire pressure would also be a royal pain.
    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
