Well my Nissan FPY31 Cima Gloria (VG30 Engine) arrived from Japan last week, and the GTR comes over in another month or so.

But I've been travelling in the Cima lately and goddamn is it comfortable, velvet seats that are power adjustable, tinted black windows, looks very VIP spec, goes alright as well.

It's currently in my garage getting side intrusion bars welded in... the usual compliance stuff, I have a couple of pics, a bit dark however :P

Nice Y31, this is the Cima which i have recently purchased and will be coming to Melbourne very soon. What do you all think? It has the VG30DET engine, i'm not sure of the bodykit manufacturer, but i know that the bonnet mascot is a Junction Produce item. Anyone have any clue as to the maker if the rims??? They are apparently 18x12 at the back and 18x10 at the front. If anyone has much clue where they might be from, i'd like to hear from you. As you can see from the pics, it has front and rear height controllers.

Lovin the Gloria CEF11e..

Curious as to what other engines came out in them?

they also came out with a VG30et. and a non turbo VG20de powerhouse :(

I want to put a VQ30det in mine. they are almost a straight bolt in job and can push 220rwkw in standard form with 14psi.

I also want to put a manual box in to go with it and a mechanical LSD so i can go drifting pimp style!

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
