Need to free up some finances for my business. Car was bought from import dealer in 2008 for $24k and more than $10k has been spent on tasteful mods.

INTERIOR:

- all seats reupholstered with creme coloured leatherette with NISMO embroidery. Centre console and door inserts matching.

- grey factory carpets removed and replaced with jet black carpets throughout

- genuine NISMO mats front & back

- all upholstering work done professionally

- RaceTech gauges (blue leds) replacing the old factory ones for Voltage, Boost (PSI) and Water Temperature

- GTR dash insert (charcoal)

- dash cluster lights replaced with blue LEDs (matching the stereo and triple-gauges)

AUDIO

- front speakers and tweeters installed by FHRX studios

- Dynamat in front doors

- Active ported sub in the boot (120Watts from memory) strappped down securely and can be removed easily to free up space.

- Kenwood CD headunit with USB input

EXTERIOR

- NISMO rear bar (not to be confused with the common Nissan Altia bar) *RARE*

- IMPUL side skirts

- factory front bar for practicality

- 20% tinting all around

- LED tail lights (spectacular at night)

- LED boot lid lights

- genuine XENON Hid lights (factory option) 3-way adjustable and HID parkers + NISMO eyelids

- genuine NISMO front and side blinkers (charcoal/smoked)

WHEELS AND BRAKES

- 18 x 8.5" DTM wheels (charcoal with polished lip)

- Maxxis flagship directional performance tyres - plenty of meat left

- RDA slotted rotors

- QFM HPX brake pads

- wheels have some typical gutter rash (quoted $200 to fix)

SUSPENSION

- Bilstein (german made) suspension installed by HEASMANS with circlip grooves for height adjustability

- Whiteline heavy duty sway bars

- Whiteline springs (firm enough to provide good handling but not over the top)

- new bump stops and all new bushes (Whiteline)

- 4 wheel alignment done for performance handling

EXHAUST

- free flowing turbo-back system incl.

- JustJap dump pipe

- highflow cat

- HKS Silent Power Cat-Back 3.5" system

- very quiet exhaust, sounds nice in the cabin but does not attract unwanted attention

ENGINE

- stock turbo and all piping incl. factory intake and intercooler

- Splitfire Coilpacks

- 40mm dual core radiator and new fan clutch

- all new belts (genuine Nissan belts)

- TIMING BELT and water pump replaced first thing when the car was purchased in 2008

- factory ECU tuned to 11PSI by Japanese import specialist (260HP at the wheels) on a very safe tune (11:1 AFRs)

- Greddy electronic boost controller (hi/low settings)

- engine compression tested by Unigroup Engineering and came back very good on all cylinders (within 3PSI)

ALARM AND IMMOBILISER

- Autowatch Premium alarm and immobilizer system (Australian standards approved)

- alarm system comes with built-in turbo timer which is more secure than stanadlone turbo timer

- built in pager system (sends SMS if alarm triggered etc) Immobiliser can be activated via SMS etc. Can also be tracked via SIM card.

- 2 x compact remotes for alarm system and central locking

MISC ITEMS AND POINTS

- very good japanese battery with visual indicator

- engine oil replaced every 3000-5000Kms. Only MOTUL 300V and Royal Purple oil used (100% synthetic)

- typical fuel economy of around 14l/100Kms with 80% stop and go traffic and 20% highway. Better economy possible with more highway driving.

- LONG REGO, never a problem at rego time due to no obvious defects (ie. fmic, POD filter, loud exhaust/bov etc)

- as much as I would have loved to take it to the track, this car has NEVER been tracked OR trashed (as it's my daily)

- always garaged and no serious accidents (1 minor rear fender bender, which was repaired by insurance)

- mature driver (30yo) - first owner in Australia. The car came completely STOCK standard from Japan (one business owner)

- NO RATTLES (well one in the dash cluster but that's my fault and shall fix that)

I'm available most days. Five Dock is just off Paramatta Rd (near the M4 exit). Call me to arrange an inspection.

OFFERS ABOVE $21K ONLY.

Please note I am seriously contemplating letting the car go so this is a genuine for sale thread however as I love this car I would like to keep it if possible. I still need to talk to my bank to see if I can get finances for my business without selling the car and if that works out, it may be off the market. I've already had a serious offer for $21,000 so annyone interested, please don't waste your or my time if you can't go higher - I won't let it go below $21k.

Car's been washed, clayed, washed again and waxed yesterday and I've taken a few photos in daylight for those that were asking. Remember $20k until the end of this weekend ONLY as it suits me .. after mid week next week, next repayment is due for both the car/insurance and it won't be sold for less than $21k.

thanks guys .... by the way for those that don't like the aftermarket LED tail lights, I still have the factory tail lights which come with the car at no extra cost and they're VERY easy to replace, 5 min job.

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
