2nd hand market is over stocked with too many cars.

ask siu_loong_bao aka Nelson - he just sold his S1 sedan - took him a while, he was on the verge of trading it in, one of the exit strategy left with shitty trade in price, until lucky he got a buyer. he was quoted under 11k for trade in.

what is your asking price? I sold my S1 v35 coupe, a more popular 2dr, for a little over $25k with all the goodies. that's about 5k what others were asking on the market. not what I was after, but that was my exit opportunity

sedans look way better it you ask me.. the 2 doors look like they need to take a dump or something :lol:

and you wonder why no one asks you :rofl:

sedans are a bit harder to sell as your competing with locally delivered maximas ...but just hang in there or if your in a rush to sell...then just drop the price till it hurts.

s...but just hang in there or if your in a rush to sell...then just drop the price till it hurts.

Or hope that Nissan makes the decision to bring the Infinity into Australia. Then just replace the Skyline insignia with Infinity, and watch the value climb as the label competes with BMW... Oh wait - is this not a dream? Oh Bugger... >_<

yeah you're deaming mate. LOL

I don't see how those Toyota Soarer increase in value when they slapped a Lexus SC badges on them...

at the end of the day when that happened (Infiniti arrives) most V35 on the market would be about 7-12 years old!

Hang in there!!

Sedans will always be a tougher market. The big attraction with imports is sporty coupes. Sedans are more "family" orientated and the general import buyer is not usually family folk :(

It's just depend on the buyer's choice. But V35 being an import, it will attract less attention than other sedans. Just hang on abit before making rush decision.

From personal point of view, I still think they are hot car when modded, with big rims, dumped and dark tint. ;)

      Wanted to buy R200 longnose LSD 3.9 ratio

      By Ben_D · Posted

      Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D

      Back for more after 18 years - and where are the longnose R200 LSDs?

      By Ben_D · Posted

      Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D

      G35 Control arm and Compression Rods into a V35 Skyline.

      By sonicii · Posted

      Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.

      Ceramic turbine damage to engine - what did yours do?

      By Erelyes · Posted

      Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.

      M35 Aftermarket Fuel Pump

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
