That guy is dodgy, read the questions to the seller at the bottom of the ad.

As soon as someone asked the key question about weather it was an insurance write off or statutory write off he goes all difficult and avoids the question.

That was the first thing I noticed too, he went straight on the defensive.

I hope someone doesn't buy this expecting to get it up and going and registered with out $3500 worth of repairs, I think there is going to be more around the $6000 - $8000 and that's if it can be re-registered.

I reckon it was the smartest question of the lot. . . . . If the owner had the correct papers he would be boasting it everywhere . . .

I reckon he bought it hoping to repair it but made a crucial mistake and is left with an expensive wreck.

Imagine the questions he did not answer or post on the ad . . . .

Anyone got a user account on this & care to see what happens?

FWIW the compliance is legit;

hmmm i asked if it was a stat write off and he said its 'NOT' in capitals. so im asking for paperwork. insurance has had someting to do with it as it doesnt have rego. im 100% sure this car came from edward lees in june last year and i drove it ;)

anyway, he said GMS spares has an M35, so ive asked if they are seperating it (ECU + bits for me)

the auction finishes in 2 days dude ;)

or are you talking about the one at GMS spares?

I figure he wont sell it myself. if its still there on thurs I'll look at it friday.

he seems to think every car thats ever had an accident and claimed under insurance is classified as a repairable write-off. wtf??

if its anything like up here then it probably true. repairable writeoffs can be total losses and still be listed that way.

easy way to solve this is to ring the RTA in the morn with the chassis number.

radio will be a waste anyway - its JDM and old.

yeah i owned a total loss but it was repairable. so i repaired it lol

but not EVERYTHING as he seems to think. anyway i didnt get a reply to my asking if i can see it today. so im guessing thats a no. probably sus anyway, seems that the finance company still has an interest in it. anyone who buys it i HOPE they do a revs check........

first thing he says is its for sale on behalf of a friend.at the end of the page that he just added it says quote *

now another point is when I originally purchased the car I purchased it under finance., when I purchased it the finance required me to have insurance, now that the insurance has paid me and the finance company out so it should of all been cleared. however for some strange reason its still listed on revs with finance owing, so I will call the finance company prior to auction ending and make sure that they clear it off there systems.

I hope this clears up many questions.

im afraid it all sound way too dodgy to me

    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
