For sale: 1997 EL Falcon XR6

*Body-352000km

*Engine replace and diff reco about 120000km ago

The good:

*4 brand new tyres

*New radiator, fuel filter and front rotors

*aftermarket exhaust

*Made ACT roadworthy a couple of weeks ago, thinking that the certificate may expire before the transfer is completed, but in any case shouldn't be hard to get another one.

*Comes with stock exhaust, spare distributor and two tyres at about 40% each

The bad:

*Small piece of surface rust on the roof(about the size of a 50c piece). Can be fixed with touch up paint.

*Tyres rub on the arm. I have been told that this may be able to be corrected with a wheel alignment and it is not a big deal.

*slight fluid leak from the diff

*came with a little front end cosmetic and headlight damage. I have repaired a majority of this inc a replacement set of LHS headlights

PM me for pics as I am having trouble uploading them.

Bought this about a month ago as a replacement for my MR30 skyline, but after driving my MR30 on the weekend have actually decided I like the skyline better, and would prefer to upgrade to another R30/R31 instead.

Keen for swaps with an R30 or preferably an R31 manual(ideally R31 silhouette, relatively stock) with low k's with cash adjustment but let me know what you have!

Other than that, if you want to buy it outright I am chasing around 4K neg.

Located ACT/Southern Highlands

    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
    • Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.
    • Hmmm, interesting. Makes me wonder whether there is bias as well. It's the cheapest fuel, so it is used for all kinds of ill-maintained shitboxes which are bound to have issues regardless. Nicer cars tend to require higher octane rated fuel and can't use it anyway. FWIW, the official NSW E10 facts page is decent.
