There are no real modifications, but repairs etc which have been done include:

- Full bottom end rebuild 10,000km ago (have receipts) with tune

- New distributor 10,000km ago

- New Pedders Comfort Gas suspension 10,000km ago

- R31 Skyline steering rack 10,000km ago (can be rebuilt, R31 Pintara can't)

- Sandblasted and polished Bluebird SSS wheels with Kenda Komet SPT-1 tyres (~10,000km old, good tread)

- Pioneer deck with front audio input

- JVC 4 channel amp

- Polk Audio 6.5" front splits

- Jaycar Response 6x9s with spacers (never actually fitted)

- Subaru WRX front buckets

- Autotechnica leather steering wheel

- New battery 3 months ago

- New O2 sensor (not fitted yet)

- Tow bar

- 14" Steel Wheels (supplied on request)

- K & N Pod filter with adaptor (not fitted)

Regularly serviced and maintained every 5,000km

Car has been well looked after and maintained over the 4 years I've owned it. Drives extremely well, and engine rebuild has livened up the engine.

I've upgraded to a M35 Stagea, and don't have room for this, so despite the sentimental attachment the car has to go.

Note: Rego is due on 14/5, and if purchased before this date I'll drop the price to $1700 to avoid paying rego, and in addition to all the above will put a full tank of fuel in.

I'll try and get some soon Aaron, but its dirty again. Buy this so I don't have to keep two cars clean!!!

Now with 3 months rego and full tank of fuel!

Looking for a cheap daily/load lugger? Why buy something unknown when you can buy something completely rebuilt and reliable?

The only thing I'm aware of that needs doing is running new wires in the drivers door for the cross over.

Must go as it's taking up space and I want coilovers for the Stag!

Now with pics!

Finally have some pics!

Tow bar all setup, electrics have been tested and work fine.

15" Bluebird SSS wheels with Kenda Komet SPT-1 tyres. Good tread, and car has been wheel aligned so no feathering or tyre dramas whatsoever. Will consider splitting wheels and tyres. Also has new (~10,000 km old) Pedders Comfort Gas shocks all round.

Cavernous boot, just like every other R31 Wagon. Gas struts are fine. There is a whole in the right hand side where the original owner had ONE 6x9 which wasn't connected correctly.

Interior with Subaru WRX front buckets, Pioneer CD/MP3 player with AUX in (and cable), and Autotechnica leather steering wheel. You can also see the tweeters for the Polk Audio splits.

New battery and terminal, put in within the last 12 months.

Rebuilt engine has been regularly serviced, has done around 10-15k kms since it was rebuilt. New plugs, plug leads, oil, filters, coolant, thermostat, distributor, distributor cap, etc. All quality fluids.

In addition to the above pics, will come with standard 14" steel wheels (if wanted), Jaycar 6x9s and new oxygen sensor.

Price drop to $1700 ono with three months rego (til 14/8) and a full tank of fuel. I really just need it gone now, so will take offers or consider splitting.

No one? Bueller... Bueller...

This HAS to go. Make me an offer!

Will consider parting out if people are interested in the seats (and can provide originals), wheels or speakers.

I don't think you'll find anything else as reliable or well sorted for the money!

Council are complaining so drop to $1500 FIRM without any of the uninstalled parts (6x9s, steel wheels and filter).

Will also consider offers on the 15" Bluebird SSS wheels, which are in great condition and were sandblasted and polished prior to fitment of the tyres and fitting to the car.

    • I'm actually not sure - I think it was "Stealth Performance" (It really is near impossible to find a FEMALE 1/8BSPT to 1/8NPT male at ALL) but having the thing leveraged on a 90 degree angle on a small aluminium fitting is not too smart. Also in not too smart, I've drilled out the center of the broken fitting so there's maybe 0.00001mm of thread to bite into, so yeah. I may have to get it drilled/tapped/plugged entirely. Given I could conceivably tap a thread/adapter/pressure line in any point in the oil system I suppose it's feasible to run a line to the Nissan Sensor to keep the dash working. Do these exist in AN fittings and the like? Like an AN fitting that has a NPT (or other?) thread as well for putting a sensor in?
    • I would agree.  There will be an amount of boost you could run safely with an otherwise factory system, but it would be low enough to not be worth the cost.  And if you are reliving your 20s, you know a 'little bit' was never enough. Personally, if I didn't want to spend the money, then stick with NA bolt-ons, and maybe a tune.
    • Fuark, at least the motor survived. What brand was the fitting that snapped?
    • Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.
    • Measure voltage at the starter solenoid terminal when the key is at start and it has clicked. If it is really low, then the suspicion falls on the ignition switch (contacts or wiring thereof) as causing a voltage drop instead of sending enough volts to throw the solenoid all the way to engage the starter itself. If it is a decent voltage, then the suspicion is on the solenoid. Might have s horted coil, or might hva dirty contacts. Rip the starter off, dismantle, clean up contacts and inspect winding. It might not be possible to see if there is a short in the winding though. I have a spare starter here that I could measure the resistance of the coil, as a guide to about what it should be, if you need a comparison. <parts hoarder>No you cannot have it.</parts hoarder>
