Please note, I have just had Ben at Racepace check out the smoke and he's told me that a cylinder has a cracked piston ring.

I have ot sell the car ASAP before the lease expires.

I think the price is fair if you are able or willing to the rings replaced.

Details:

Late 97 posibly 98 build series 3 (Dual Airbags and Xenon lights) GTR V-Spec

Black exterior

Grey interior, factory leather seats

68,000 KM

Dark tint windows

Carbon look "GTR" rear wing inserts

HKS2530's

233 rwkw @ 1 bar

Stock rims

Currently registered in QLD with "97 GTR" Goldcoast Indy plates - most likely to be sold seperately or kep for when I can afford to buy another one :cheers:

Can transfer vehicle to VIC rego before purchase if required.

A few scratches here and there, the front bar, plastic, has a few cracks in it, I havn't replaced it yet as it still has some life in it :)

Had some minor mods including larger oil sump, oil cooler, 3" pipes off the turbos, HKS2530s has an electronic boost controller (currently disabled), Field Torque split controller, single ( I think) but definately plated clutch. Nismo centre guages and Nismo dash

Serviced regularly, earlier by Blackburn Nissian and recently by Racepace Motorsports.

Inspections welcome.

It may be unlikely, but would you be interested in a trade + cash at all??

Normaly I would be interested but I need the cash to cover the lease payout.

I'll take some pics over the weekend.

Ok, Bad news for me I'm affraid.

I've had the car checked again and apparently its more than unburnt fuel out the exuast and appears to have a cracked ring on one cylinder. Which leaves me in a bad position.

I should be able to transfer the warranty to a new owner which should cover $2000 of repairs to the engine.

I have to sell the car before the 24th March.

As such I'll let the car go $29500, leaving you with the opportunity to rebuild it your self or have it done for you and have a rebuilt engine in the car complete for $<36K or there abouts.

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.

      I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.

      No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!

      You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
