So i got rid of my Maxima and replaced it with this bad boy. For the price it was going for, its condition and the options it has, I couldn't say no.

Its an 89 model, RB20E Auto, 76xxx kms seem genuine.

Panels are all good bar one (pending fix), the paint is shit especially on the bumpers and there's a few spots of rust.

Runs mint though, has been looked after really well, the air con still works.

Needed to pick myself up a nice car to cruise around in. Having a work car is awesome, but a manual hilux with radio only certainly never fits when you want to go for a drive late at night or on the weekend.

Options include:

Factory sunroof w/ shade + logo

ABS (unusual for pre - xNA31s)

Optional fabric interior (still pretty bleh, but better than standard)

Extra bling lining down the doors.

Haha a few people have said the same thing...

The sunroof made my first one more appealing to purchase, and I aquired this one by posting a WTB for a Cefiro rolling shell when I was paranoid about the other one being bent...guy messaged me said he had one with a sunroof already, perfect win.

Aye lads, I be holding a proposition for ye,

How about these rim for the boat

Couple of hundred, and about 800 by the time its set sail across the seven sea's and landed at my door.

DO EEEET!!!

I have replicas of these and they look fantastic with the right offset. Pity mine isn't lowered.

I think Dan should sell me his jap dishies, since they've been in his signature for soo long:

haha, so true :yes:

also spacers are for pus-sies, those stich type meshies need more lip on the rear for the goods

check ns.com vip rims are usually floating around

Aquired R32 4 pot calipers, slotted rotors (multi stud pattern), Standard R33 rotors, R33 calipers and R34 5 stud rear hubs w/ bearings.

Pending brake lines and rego before they go on, I test fitted the front calipers with the stockies and 3mm slip on spacers.

IT CLEARS....JUST. The rim somehow free-spins without grinding...but have a look at this pic, Definately not going to risk it, there'd be less than a 0.25mm clearance in there....need bigger spacers or different rims, or wait till I turn the front 5 stud .... but since i got multistud rotors, I can retain 4 stud and just use some slip on spacers in the mean time.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
