Hi Guys

Been a while since I posted here. Some of you may remember me when I posted my issues with my tranny a while ago. The car is not shifting out of first although when you disconnect and reconnect the battery it will run fine for another hour or so. I've been adviced by my mech that the issue may lie in the TCM itself but tbh I don't have the time and the money to try to fix it anymore.

Anyway, after many , I've decided to cut my losses and sell it cheap.

I've posted it on Gumtree for now and so far only had a few tyre kickers and scammers. So I thought I'd post it here to gather more interests.

The engine is flawless with less than 65,000 on the clock (61,200) to be exact. Paint, body and interior is excellent with negligible issues.

The driver seat's railing needs to be welded because one side is broken ( No, I'm not overweight ) I will consider reasonable offers and willing to help organise interstate shipping if needed.

Here's the link to the gumtree ad : http://www.gumtree.c...peed/1005450447

Going to put it up on eBay very soon.

Thanks guys, any opinions or advice?

Word of advice : Stay away from CVT :/

If you are thinking of getting back even close to 10K for it, you are better off selling the parts off individually, etc engine, interior, body parts, suspension etc...

Otherwise, $10K for a car that potentially needs a whole new transmission is still quite a gamble for any buyer out there. As far as people who are aware of CVT issues associated with the V35, I would not even buy it for 10K if the CVT was working fine. They are pretty much just a ticking time bomb.

Thanks for the helpful post ni5mo :) this sale is considered without a transmission since it is a gamble.

$10,000 is my asking price and I'm negotiable. This car still fetches 15 - 20 grand here in perth if everything works fine.

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
