Yes, I used to have one.

It's actually a Nissan Auster Xtt. I had a 1987 model with the same CA18DET without the intercooler. It was well optioned with a full retracting sunroof, electric everything and electrically adjustable damper control. Mine had a VERY well kept interior, but the engine had seen better days, but it still pulled pretty well. If I remember correctly, the non-intercooled CA18DET was rated at 115-118kw. The downside is the weight of the thing, I think they weigh in at 1200kgs+, so that CA had better have some breathing mods and extra boost to compensate.

Not a bad FF sedan... good if you want a cheap Turbo but want more room/better engine than a Pulsar ET...

an interesting car and i have never seen one before.

when do u get your v35? Rezz

There are a few in Perth...

I have to move house before I get the V35, I'll have to wait till mid-year for it though... or I could just slap down the 400,000 - 500,000 yen for an R32 GT-R and be done with it.

if u get the v35 will u be bringing it back to oz?
Oh yeah, I'll only have it for a year, then ship it to my brother Trent in Perth... he can get rid of it or keep it, it's up to him.
So.... is this an Aus sold car or a grey import and what would be a good price to pay for it
It's an import. I paid $3,000 for my one (about that...) but like I say, it had a really good interior. That particular one looks ok, but I wouldn't pay anymore than $3,000 no matter how good it is... it's an old, old car.

    • Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.
    • Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.
    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
