Hey guys. decided i am going to downgrade a bit due to buying a house. Has been my dream car for years but cannot afford to keep it at the moment unfortunately. Not in a hurry to sell so am not interested ridiculous offers and please keep any negative comments to yourselves, thanks.

It is a black 5 speed manual '94 model, with just on 80,000 on the clock.

Car is almost completely standard, except for turbo back exhaust system with varex muffler and twin apexi pods.

Comes with 19" starcorps with heaps of dish on the rears. fit really well and show off the slotted rotors and calipers which have been painted red.

also has a heavy duty clutch installed by previous owner just before i bought the car.

It has had the standard series 6 rear spoiler removed and the holes are just plugged at the moment as i have a series 8 rear spoiler that i was going to put on but havent got into painted yet.

Interior is in good condition and the exterior is in pretty good condition for its age. Has a few minor marks, stonechips etc.

Like most cars of its age it has a few small problems which i dont have time to fix. These are:

- tacho works intermittently. apparently caused by a lose connection

- has a squeak coming from the rear of the car when you are on a bumpy road or going up a driveway. needs a rear swaybar bush to be changed to fix it.

- when you start the car after it has been sitting for several hours it has an alarm come on to say you need to add coolant. it only stays on for 30 seconds or so but i just find it a bit annoying. this is a common problem in this series rx-7 and is just an issue with a sensor.

- has a spot on the front bar where the paint is cracked so it needs to be resprayed

i have only owned the car for a bit over 6 months and have not used it very much at all. just short trips to and from work mainly. It is a great head turning car. sounds really tough and looks very tidy. it is also pretty quick for an almost stock car. would love to spend the time and money fixing up the problems but i would rather spend it on the house at the moment. As ive said price is negotiable due to the couple of small problems.

will ad pics tomorrow after ive given it a wash.

contact by pm on here or 0402630053 (prefer sms due to poor reception in our area)

car is located near Windsor, NSW

$17, 500 negotiable

update

put the car into the mechanic the other day and got the spark plugs changed, running really well now

the coolant alarm going off was found to be due to a very slow leak out of the water pump. not an urgent fix just requires it to be checked once a week or so.

will take this into account if negotiating price if it is not yet fitted with a new one at time of sale.

i go away next week so best contact will probably be by email if you have any question

[email protected]

cheers guys, had several offers but not quite what im after

this badge only came out on the earlier fd models and only on the jap imported cars, the australian ones had the different badge like a number 8, same as on mx-6. and i think the series 7's and 8's started using the normal mazda badge

oh i see...hehe would u swap this car for a skyline??

nah not really open to trades at the moment. want to get something a bit more practical and cheaper to insure for the moment and im pretty picky with what i get so would prefer a straight cash sale.. i can definately see myself getting another r34 in the next 18 months or so though :D

make some offers guys, prefer local sale can willing to help organise interstate transport. i've found a car im after to tow the boat for summer so would like to sell this soon. cheers

Hi Mate. Just wondering if you would be selling with RWCertificate and if that would be valid in Victoria. If no RWCertificate, then can you tell me exactly what is required for Road Worthy. Maybe scan a certificate from an Authorised mechanic? I am just guessing because we can do that in Victoria. Not sure about NSW. Thanks! :)

hey mate, i havent organised a road worthy cert for it. im not exactly sure what you would need for it in victoria. it would need the horn fixed, one of the headlight motors is a bit sticky sometimes, so they might not like that, and depends what their take on pod filters and loudish exhaust are. the pods and exhaust are the only mods, but im not sure of victorian rules on those thing. cheers mate.

price drop 15, 500 as is pretty firm

    • 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    
    • 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  
    • 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.
    • 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.
    • 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)
