For sale is my now arrived V35 Skyline 350GT coupe

It's the 2004 70th anniversary limited edition model - has all the desirable features you could want in a V35, including 6spd manual, black duco, sunroof, brembos, and the full (not half) leather. probably only one or two in Oz for sale with these specs, and I will bet they're asking a fair whack more.

Factory features:

  • Dual Climate Control
  • Full Cream Leather Interior
  • Air Ioniser (Filter)
  • Heated Seats
  • Sun Roof
  • Premium Bose 8 Speaker Sound System
  • Automatic Headlights
  • Pop-up 7" LCD screen (Displays mileage and other statistics, with a TV Tuner, local channels can be received)
  • Steering wheel volume control (needs to be hooked up)
  • Sequential Sports Shift

(ok, so I copied all that from another ad). It is essentially stock.

Has 110K klms, but I've been importing cars for 15 years, and those who think that the proliferation of cars (such as V35) on the market all with between 40 - 75K klms is a coincidence, or reflects what they hope is genuinely low mileage - are just kidding themselves. At least with my car, you're not paying to have the speedo wound back. You're getting what you pay for.

It is mechanically sound, and neat and clean, but at this price it does have some things requiring attention to detail. FOr instance, drivers window occasionally gets stuck. Those who know V35 know that this is not only common, but the fix can be exxy, or done cheap (and well) - depending upon how you go about it. Leather drivers seat is as expected for a car of this age.

Otherwise stock. Had a clutch replacement (cost $800 I think) about 2 years ago. Also has an aftermarket immobiliser.

Now - here's the kicker. I can sell this with RWC and rego, or with RWC only, or simply complied with no RWC. Better yet, anyone taking it off my hands right now (it will pass compliance, and I will guarantee this in writing) will get it at an even better price, simply because;

a. I dont have to stuff around with it - saves my time, and

b. They can choose to do fixes and mods to suit their own tastes and budget. for instance, I will fit 18" tyres for compliance, the buyer might want to go straight to 19's and therein save themselves some money.

If it sells now pre-compliance, I will do this for $15990 as it sits. Otherwise, complied and RWC, I will be asking $19900.

Feel free to ask questions, or flame my post (always happens on SAU), or shoot me a PM if interested.

Photos will be loaded in the morning.

Cheers,

Jez

      Yup. You can get creative and make a sort of "bracket" with cable ties. Put 2 around the sender with a third passing underneath them strapped down against the sender. Then that third one is able to be passed through some hole at right angles to the orientation of the sender. Or some variation on the theme. Yes.... ummm, with caveats? I mean, the sender is BSP and you would likely have AN stuff on the hose, so yes, there would be the adapter you mention. But the block end will either be 1/8 NPT if that thread is still OK in there, or you can drill and tap it out to 1/4 BSP or NPT and use appropriate adapter there. As it stands, your mention of 1/8 BSPT male seems... wrong for the 1/8 NPT female it has to go into. The hose will be better, because even with the bush, the mass of the sender will be "hanging" off a hard threaded connection and will add some stress/strain to that. It might fail in the future. The hose eliminates almost all such risk - but adds in several more threaded connections to leak from! It really should be tapered, but it looks very long in that photo with no taper visible. If you have it in hand you should be able to see if it tapered or not. There technically is no possibility of a mechanical seal with a parallel male in a parallel female, so it is hard to believe that it is parallel male, but weirder things have happened. Maybe it's meant to seat on some surface when screwed in on the original installation? Anyway, at that thread size, parallel in parallel, with tape and goop, will seal just fine.

      How do you propose I cable tie this: To something securely? Is it really just a case of finding a couple of holes and ziptying it there so it never goes flying or starts dangling around, more or less? Then run a 1/8 BSP Female to [hose adapter of choice?/AN?] and then the opposing fitting at the bush-into-oil-block end? being the hose-into-realistically likely a 1/8 BSPT male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSPT reducing bush? I am making the assumption the OEM sender is BSPT not BSPP/BSP

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      I fashioned a ramp out of a couple of pieces of 140x35 lumber, to get the bumper up slightly, and then one of these is what I use

      I wouldn't worry about dissimilar metal corrosion, should you just buy/make a steel replacement. There will be thread tape and sealant compound between the metals. The few little spots where they touch each other will be deep inside the joint, unable to get wet. And the alloy block is much much larger than a small steel fitting, so there is plenty of "sacrificial" capacity there. Any bush you put in there will be dissimilar anyway. Either steel or brass. Maybe stainless. All of them are different to the other parts in the chain. But what I said above still applies.

      You are all good then, I didn't realise the port was in a part you can (have!) remove. Just pull the broken part out, clean it and the threads should be fine. Yes, the whole point about remote mounting is it takes almost all of the vibration out via the flexible hose. You just need a convenient chassis point and a cable tie or 3.
