Fantastic car, very regretful sale. I have too many cars and not enough money :(.

This is the "Ultima" model, which is the top spec. Very rare car, there are only a handful of F31s in Australia and most are lower-spec models. Factory features include:

- Cruise Control

- Climate Control

- ICE with TV

- Electric just about everything

Whenever I take this car out I get comments from people about what a nice car it is. She's a real head turner.

The car has very few mods, with my intention being to keep it as stock as possible. Most of the mods it does have were done before I got it, I have just added a few electrical niceties to bring it into the 21st century.

The factory TV was analogue and suits Japanese frequencies, so was 100% useless over here. A Zylux HDTV module has been wired into the factory CRT TV (to maintain the OEM / retro 80s feel) to provide HD TV as well as USB, aux in, recording, etc. For more info on the module used see here: http://www.zylux.com.au/aus/zylux-hd-digital-tv-receiver-with-recorder.html

A parrot bluetooth module was also installed to add hands-free capabilities, as well as music streaming over bluetooth. For more info on the parrot unit see here: http://www.parrot.com/au/products/hands-free-car-kits/parrot-mki9200/

The car has a full alarm and immobiliser professionally (and properly) installed by Audio Express Brisbane, it is virtually un-stealable unless you have a flat bed.

Currently she has R33 seats in the front (pictured). I also have a set of HR31 seats that can go in (they are a straight fit) so the buyer can have whichever set they prefer, or both if they want. The fabric on the HR31 seats is in pretty bad shape, but they are probably more comfortable.

The Good

- Pretty much everything works. I hate things not working so I have gone to some effort to fix everything. The only thing that comes to mind that doesn't work is the auto suspension, because it has been replaced with aftermarket suspension. Even the tape player works!!

- 100k service (timing belt, water pump, etc.) was done at 150k, using all genuine Nissan parts. It looked like this had already been done at 100k, but I wasn't sure and a leaking injector meant it all had to come off anyway, so it was all done again. So it should be good for another 85k or so.

- Comes with a bunch of spares (some old, some brand new) that I have collected over the time I have owned her.

- recently replaced coil packs (yellow jackets), spark plugs (NGK iridium) and alternator (2nd hand)

- recently had power steering rack rebuilt and auto box serviced

- Can probably get P plate approval based on factory power/weight (I'll try to dig up the numbers)

- Comes with two sets of personalised plates - 13PRD (Leopard) and MYF31

The Bad

- Couple of dings and scratches. She's 26 years old after all

- Auto box occasionally plays up a little bit. Nothing Major

- Battery only lasts a few days without driving. Might need a new a new one, or just drive it more often than I do :P

- Dash has seen better days

- Front seat belts don't retract very well. I will probably have to replace these for RWC however.

- Some gutter Rash on the wheels.

Price

Asking price is $8000. This will include a QLD RWC and rego until the end of the year.

I'm negotiable on price, I want to see her go to a good home. If you want to buy her without rwc and rego (eg interstate buyers) then the price will come down.

If you want to buy her before I have to pay the rego renewal (due mid June) I can do it cheaper, but you won't get as much rego then.

Make an offer, the worst I can do is say no.

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
