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.

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
