The car was originally built back in 2004/2005 and has been pretty much garaged for as long due to hectic work schedule over the past few years. As such, I’ve decided to finally part ways with my Nissan and put it up for sale.

Details and mods are as follows:

Make: Nissan

Model: 1989 S13 Silvia convertible with 180SX front-end conversion

There is currently 6 months of registration remaining on the S13, expiring October 2012.

All window motors are working fine, roof pump works fine and the roof is in very good condition.

Engine is in very good condition - I had Hyperdrive perform a comp test on the engine (so that it’s a third party confirmation), results are: 175/175/175/180/180/175 cyls 1-6. They also gave it a mild tune (9psi) at ~270rwhp, at 18psi it should make somewhere in the order of 350rwhp I would imagine.

Upfront known issues:

1. Stereo used to work, but doesn't seem to anymore

2. Rear right window needs replacing, however I have the replacement window; I just haven't had the time to put it in

3. The convertible roof needs wiring into the switch; note that the roof does work however

4. The front left brake appears to be slightly dragging as there is a very slight noise coming from the brake - no brake fumes though and still brakes work well

5. Although it has remained registered, the engine conversion has not been been engineered - Dept. of Transport website has a list of guys that can perform the work

I'm looking at $11,500ono for this. All the hard work's been done and there has been a lot of blood and sweat (and $$) poured into it; there's just the small niggly items as noted above. This is a very rare car (Autech only converted 400), and it carries an RB26.

Feel free to send me a PM or post a reply if you have any further questions, or you can catch me on mobile 0404 70 50 63.

Please note I still run a hectic work schedule, so I'm not interested in time-wasters.

Jules

    • Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!
    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

If this is what you want please come to one of our many track days. This is an official SAU:NSW event and will be run under a CAMS permit. One of the things that really sets our club apart is our commitment to being true enthusiasts. When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general. When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to: • Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly. • Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should. • Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU NSW and thus, treat others accordingly. • Any misbehavior will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave.
    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
