I do believe that car is Victorian if im not mistaken, sounds very similar.

I remember the same coloured GTR, older fella - drove past our Show'n'Shine a few years ago and had a bit of a chat :P

pretty sure it's a sydney car. was sold in parramatta sydney, still with it's original owner, and now for sale again in sydney. would be a good buy in the $30K range somewhere but will most likely go higher. very nice to see with original books etc.

Done

I think ash is going to sticky it.

Awesome, now i have to ring nissan up and find out what build no. mine is.

I do still have the oringal log book, but i cant see where the biuld no. should be.

Looks like the burgundy one was sold at Shannons auctions last night for $53,000.

Hi Guys,

I'll post a formal intro as soon as I can but I was the successful bidder on this car last night.

Pick her up tomorrow. >_<:laugh::(:banana:

Cheers,

Bob.

Mate, check the vin of the car and shoot me a pm with the last 5 digits, I will be able to tell you whether it was a first or second release and what build number (out of 100) it is.

Hi Ken,

Thanks for your kind words.

The bidding started at $40K with about 6 players........ By the time it got to $48K 3 had dropped out. At $50K it was between me and a phone bidder (interstate I think). At $52K he went up to $52,500. I bid $53K and he said no.

This is what I loved about the car.......... Every pink slip (Roadworthy) since 1995 with the original purchase documentation. Press kit and letter of congratulations from Nissan Australia.

Bob.

Looks like a really nice car Bob.

I was wanting to go to the auction just to see it but then realised on Tuesday I had missed it.

Anyway well done!

Ken I too will flick you a PM with the VIN if you could let us know the build number that would be great!

    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
    • OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
