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!

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.

    • How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.
    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
