Hello all!

This is the first time I have purchased one of these 'luxury' style cars and was wondering if any of you Japan gurus :rant: knew the specifications?

It is a VG30DE (T) I believe? also it has airbag suspension :)

Thats about it?

Any specification you guys have?

Thanks in advance, Gary.

Sorry but why would you want to buy a Y31 Cedric Cima? This could be the reason no one has answered, or could be no one knows the specs.

Well they came with VG30DE and DET with 200ps/26.5kgm and 255ps/35.5kgm respectively...only in 4AT and weight about 1550kgs. If you haven't noticed they are called Cedric Cima or Gloria Cima, but yours seems to look like a Cedric Cima from the chrome on the bonnet. Basically cosmetic and interior differences really, this particular model externally they are identical while internally they had different trims and steering wheel. Traditionally the Gloria is the more upmarket between the two as you can see there is a M45 Infiniti in the states which is basically a Gloria running a VK45DE.

That's about all I know about them, Justin, Dave may know more.

Because in my opinion they are nice cars, sure I could VIP style it if I wanted to :D

But all the money goes to the GT-R, I want something 'different' to drive in the meantime, hence the Cima.

Plus the car has a few parts in it for an RB26 :)

Which are padlocked and insured, can't trust the wharfies.

Nah... good on you Gary! Go the different route.

I kinda agree with Troy though, there isn't much to say about the Cedric/Glorias. I did take a pic of one in the Photo Diary which had HUUUUUGE wheels and looked awesome, but theres little else going for them.

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..   
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
