Just my thoughts after having the car for 3 weeks.

Firstly great looking car nice rims chrome around the windows looks nice. Only fault no driving lights on front bar should be standard on all sp models. Secondly top engine lots of power smooth acceleration. Theres been a few post about fuel economy been not so great iam getting 520klm per tank which is unreal considering the performance you have on tap. Good quality interior nice layout love the music box. The standard audio is actually not the bad good bass from the front speakers.FAULTS to me are the steering seems quit heavy as soon as theres a defect in the road the car will pull to that side in a hurry which can be a pain. Suspension is quit firm can get very bumpy at times nissan should have had a setting for comfort and sport. Saying that it handels great around corners. So all up I realy like the car but its not for me I think it was more of an impulse buy and will be selling it soon. Hope to read some replys on other owners and there thoughts

At first I was like :happy:

Then I was like :woot:

Afterwards :unsure:

And now :(

...why are you selling? PV36 is where it's at for the money!

Around the 4-5k mark for a decent system including a decent management system like Accuair. So it's not cheap.. but it will likely make the ride softer than what you currently have, plus then you can run whatever height you want. Need air tank(s), compressor(s), bags, lines from compressor to tank, lines from tank to bags, fittings, management system.

It's technically only legal if you also have the auto levelling system installed with it (and probably an engineers cert), however this will not allow you to adjust it on the fly, only when parked. I think driving mode is then set at the minimum legal height for your car too.. which doesn't sound overly fun.

If you don't go around slamming it and pumping it while driving then it's not likely that you will get done, but if you're spotted playing with it, or hard parking somewhere with it on the ground then you may get some unwanted attention haha. But it would be tempting!

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
