Hi guys,

Moving overseas so the Ceddy needs to go, This car has been meticulously maintained and is a one of a kind in Aus (seriously... this is the only Y32 in Aus!).

It will truly be missed once it moves on but sadly it needs to go.
Car: 1994 Nissan Cedric Gran Tourismo SV
Engine: VG30DE non-turbo V6 3.0L (similar to the non-turbo 300ZX) <-- Yes this is P-plate legal
Drivetrain: RWD 5spd Automatic with an LSD apparently, though i am not sure if thats true
Interior: Leather seats (redone with Clazzio seat covers), climate control, cruise control, sunroof, electric windows, drivers seat etc
114,000kms
Price: $13,000
Pics:
Many of you might have seen pics on here and on my build thread, but for those who missed it...

Note those pics are with the temporary bumper, and without the sideskirts/rear lip
Also the height is probably close to the lowest you can comfortably go with the coilovers.
Rears are pretty much on the bumpstops, fronts near the bottom of the adjustment thread. For everyday driving i usually have it around this height (note also the proper bumper, sideskirts/rear lip have been installed here):
That gets into most places you need to go, and only scrapes on big speedhumps
Modifications:
Suspension: JIC SF-1 Coilovers, Pillowball camber arms, toe arms, front caster arms
Brakes: 300ZX 4-pot calipers and rotors up front
Wheels: Work Schwert 19x9 and 19x10 in step lip and custom ordered finish (white on the right side, white/polish on the left side)
Exterior:
Baremetal respray in Mazda Crystal White Pearl; everything except the engine bay (inside of hood and trunk painted gloss black). Roof done in toyota Jet black.
Mirror indicators, custom red-clear taillights, HID projector retrofit with Audi projectors 55w Morimoto hids, crystal corner indicators.
Ultra rare full factory lip kit inc chrome front lip, side skirts and rear lip.
Cat back exhaust.
Interior: Clazzio seat covers, chrome drink holders, Altezza Disegno steering wheel with CF look and diamantes. 6.5" DVD/headunit, reversing camera in number plate garnish connected to 6" LCD mirror/monitor (automatically switches on in reverse). Xbox gaming console flush mounted in boot and configured as a media player with XBMC and a 200gb HDD
There are probably other things which i cant recall right now, but you might find after a few months of owning it

Glad to hear it's still around, have to keep my eye out, don't see many of these in Adelaide for sale unfortunately 


As far as i know theres only 2-3 in Aus. Might as well find something to import, no point waiting for one to pop up for sale.

    • Yea that's a fair assumption. I'm presuming they call them solid lifters as they have no moving parts like hydro lifters. 
    • I believe you're confusing WMI with water injection. Looking at that graph, the 93aki+WMI car is making more power than C16 race gas. Boost juice, which is what I also run, is Snow Performances 50/50 premix. 
    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
