Contemplating the idea of giving up on my project and moving on in my career without having this looming over my head preventing me from progressing or moving else where for work...


I've owned this 2002 model Nissan S15 - Spec S GT model for a little over a year, from what I can tell I was the 2nd owner of the car and I bought it completely stock.


I had intentions of putting a 2jz-gte with turbo 400 trans so nearly everything was removed from the car to make it happen.


Positives about the car;

+ 2nd owner

+ Completely stock

+ 96,XXX kms

+ Still has rego for about 5 months (recently renewed)

+ Overall body and interior is quite clean for the age of the car

+ Since installed a r33 gtr diff with axles, gk tech rear suspension stuff, solid diff mounts

+ New rear brake pads


Negatives about the car;

- some of the loom was a little hacked to make way for smart wire - since purchased a 2nd hand one to replace

- stock transmission mount was removed, plates have been welded on the inside of the body for the th400 - not the best job but should work okay

- trans tunnel around firewall got a real good beating with a hammer for th400 clearance, unlikely to notice once engine and trans is in

- battery tray was removed from engine bay

- bashed the stock brake booster in an attempt to get the stock twin turbo set up to fit in the engine bay, I have bought an undamaged replacement unit which is included.

- battery relocated to boot, boot carpet cut and holes were drilled to install battery tray, happy to include the tray in sale

- some additional holes around trans tunnel and engine bay from removing spot welds (from drilling)

- need to replace fuel sender loom from within the fuel tank as plug was cut when making new fuel hat. This should be easy enough to find.

- requires new fuel lines, I have stock fuel hat which is sitting in the car with stock fuel lines that are only good for about a metre or so before they are bent (removed from a written off S15)

- will require power steering lines

- a couple of small dents in the body work here and there but none that will immediately draw attention (car is nearly 14 years old after all)

- it is a rolling chassis, bring a tow truck / trailer

- stock brake rotors are a bit shitty, would require replacement soonish - passed safety certificate when I exchanged rego from interstate but it was bought to my attention from the mechanic that looked over the car

- car is in bits and pieces with numerous interior and exterior parts removed, probably lost / broken a couple of the small clips that hold interior parts in place


There is probably a bunch of other stuff I have missed out explaining but I think they are the main things that come to mind.


I am looking for around 10k ONO for this.


Weight of the car is around 1260kg so under nocop biggest engine sizes for an engine swap are 6300cc naturally aspirated or 3780cc forced induction.


When it's bolted back together it will look like this;

I have a few other extras like the evo 8 brembo calipers with adapters and dba 4000 series rotors and a 2j engine if someone was interested in doing this conversion (will include the engine mounts). This isn't included in the sale price but I am happy to include at an additional price.


Located on the Gold Coast.


Thanks

Yep, sure am.

Selling a registered australian delivered spec s gt, 2nd owner, for 10k ono.

Problem?

Keep your comments to yourself if you're not interested in buying!

Big thanks to PWND for his awesome 5-6k offer without even viewing the car because he's one hour away.

Sell this for 6k, replace what's needed for $2500 and sell it for 14k?

Who is the dummy here?

Cheap dream boats need not apply lol

Id take the 6k! All adds up getting it back together - not to mention the time! Been there and done it! Probs better off parting it

So would I, considering it's not an easy "drop 2.5K of parts and off you go"

Trans tunnel has been bashed, trans mount welded up, spot welds removed and need rewelding, (And then painting)...

I'd def take $6K on it.

6k is a f**king insult.

It's piss easy, everything bolts back in and a couple of rosette welds for the transmission support bracket. Absolutely nothing needs to be painted. A bit of mechanical knowledge is all that's needed.

Show me any S15 like this that's sold for 6k

Anyway, not that it matters. It's no longer for sale.

Cheers

eat a dick

I didn't offer you the cash. I politely asked how much movement yo had on that price, as I didn't want to waste your time or my time driving for an hour to view a car if you weren't flexible in asking price. I told you what my budget was and waited on an answer. Instead I got a thinly veiled insult.

judging by the above replies, it wold seem I should have budgeted for even less

so, as I said in my message, I retract my expression of interest in the car, and now take this opportunity to once again kindly tell you to eat a dick.

By the time you've bought another engine and box 3-4k depending where you get it, clutch if motor doesn't have one 500, fuel sender 50, as well as fixing wiring and all the little bits and pieces need to get it running properly as it sounds like a hack job and time to reassemble everything you've spent 15,000 plus, not including the effort to go and source everything missing, anyone can by buy a half decent unpacked s15 for that

id sell my s15 for 12k only 110xxxkm rb25 gearbox, also has an engine, trans tunnle is untouched and all welds are in place. Also its a spec r and has rego.

I sold my old s15 for 6.2k complete just no body kit and no reg

I don't give a f**k.

Mods, for the 3rd f**king time, do your f**king job and lock / close this thread.

Keep your pants on and stop crying about selling bits-a-shell for 10k.

Busy in my own career to lock it, done now.

Won't be deleting it though, we don't roll like that.

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
