ok well Im looking for a change so Im putting my daily up for sale. I have owned it for 18 months and love it to bits. Its my daily and gets babied almost always, most trips are just to the shops and back but have taken it on a few long road trips without any faults. It has never skipped a beat at all, its always been 100% reliable requiring just the usual basic servicing. the car is always garaged and gets serviced every 3-5000kms and only use full synthetic oils.

It's a very well maintained car, Im very fussy with it and always have it spotless inside. Im the second owner in Australia, previous owner was just as fussy and only racked up 6000kms in the year he owned it. owner in japan was a middle aged woman, have her on facebook now after finding her fuel card in the car haha

car is a 1997 series 1 Stagea RS4 4wd automatic

roughly 125000kms

car is regod in QLD until feb 2011

located in Brisbane

It has a short list of tasteful mods. everything is very neat and no corners have been cut.

HKS pod filter

R34 GTR intercooler, custom alloy piping with silicone joiners

BLITZ Spec S boost controller

GReddy Emanage ecu with super neat install

3" dump/front pipe in one

Apexi 3" cat back exhaust

gutted cat

Davies Craig transmission cooler

engine bay earth kit

auto turbo timer

Potenza suspension- almost as firm as coilovers

genuine R34 GTR wheels with 245/40/18 Federal 595 tyres

R32 GTR front brake calipers with slotted RDA rotors

260rs swaybars - almost zero body roll

huge rear wing -rare

full 260rs body kit -rare

roof racks deleted -rare

no sun roofs -rare

no hicas -rare

flawless respray in white pearle

debadged

dark tint

white headlights and parkers

clear side indicators

PIAA carbon fibre wipers

JVC headunit with USB outlet

Kenwood 6" front splits

Genuine Stagea floor mats

imaculate interier

slim line weather shields

remote alarm and imobilisor

was tuned by Trent at Status tuning 190awkw on 12psi (stock dump, front pipe and cat) so probably a bit more now.

roughly 550km per tank. slightly more on an all highway trip and slightly less if you have a heavey right foot everywhere

aswell as routine servicing, I have recently changed the following:

new O2 sensor

new battery

all exhaust gaskets replaced with genuine gaskets

rocker cover gaskets

new slotted rotors

headlight earths rewired for brighter lights

$15000 cash but open to trades for something other than a track car - would prefer a clean JZX100, v35 or something along those lines

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
