Extraordinarily good condition 1997 Nissan S13 180SX type X manual

This car was manufactured in Feb/Mar 1997 and was produced towards the end of the production run for the S13 type X before Nissan changed to the S14 Sylvia.It is considered by many to be the best type in it's class.

This car would certainly suite someone who wants a complete, origional, best condition, unmolested , fully serviced , low kilometre example of this fine marque.

The car is in excellent condition and all servicing is completely up to date including brakes (new pads, rotors skimmed) , gearbox completely serviced with all new bearings , syncros linished, replaced idler shaft, clutch (new) , diff , coolant . body lube and all other service items done , all the turbo gaskets have been replaced from the engine exhaust manifold to the cat, turbo checked out no shaft play. A cylinder check has been done and all cylinders show good, receipts for all sevicing and work come with the car.

The tyres were replaced on 04/10/11 with new Nexen C6000 .

The cars runs beautifully and is nicely quick , it uses 10.3 litres to the 100 killometers city driving with a moderate right foot..

QLD registered until JAN 2012.

The only modifications on this car are the wheels which are genuine model 6 AVS (very light) , 17x7 F and 17x8 rear , the head unit which has been upgraded to a NOS (new old stock) Nissan double din 6 stacker, the gearstick and boot which have been upgraded to genuine Nissan GTR replacements and window tint.

An aftermarket alarm / immobiliser is fitted.there is also a factory fitted manual glass sunroof complete with a new factory liner (usualy missing).

The car has only 80250 kilometers , it is tight and drives exceptionaly well , it shows no signs of ever being modified or thrashed and is in very good mechanical condition with both paint and interior origional and in very nice condition

Price depends on the deal if trading but $11990.00 would be about it for a straight sale.

I'm wanting a Mazda MX5 NA6 but the right NA8 could be OK whatever must be in nice condition. cash +/- either way depending on car if trading.

The car is garaged in Helensvale.

I can be contacted on (07) 5519 9900 or just post or pm me,

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
