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

    • CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System) has existed since the 80's. I'm looking into buying a Hummer H1 and they generally included it. 
    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
