Why am I selling it?

I love this car but I work long hours and I'm trying to save for an overseas holiday - so I never drove it much anyway (weekends and nights) but I don’t have the time or money to try and fix the problem it has.

The problem is that it is running very rich.

- It needs to be fixed before it can be driven properly – I've had the crank angle sensor and ignitor professional tested by AFI but these are all working properly. I've also swapped the AFM but this didn't fix the problem.

- This would suit someone who is mechanically/electrically minded or familiar with RB engines etc.

- Problem happened 6 weeks ago out of the blue and I have not driven the car since then.

- The car starts but runs so rich that it is very hard to drive. ALSO if the car is left to run for a while, the spark plugs foul (from too much fuel) and need to be cleaned before it will start again. I've had to do this several times.

- I don't want to spend any more time or money trying to fix it when I was planning on selling it anyway to go travelling.

ALSO:

The speedo sensor cable needs to be replaced.

- It stopped working in February and I haven't had a chance to replace it yet.

- Can be bought new from Nissan for $119.

These cars sell for $10000++ (if you can find another one) so if you are mechanically minded then get yourself a bargain.

Asking for $4000 but I will consider ALL offers!!

Awesome looking car & looks very well maintained!

Do you know what sort of power output it produces atw?

Good luck with the sale, nice price!

Doesn't it say right there..

200kw atw?

Very nice car, could be a good project.

Body looks straight.

Any rust or little niggles apart from the ones you have mentioned?

1 in a bazillion chance, but got any books for it?

Thanks everyone for your interest.

Car has been listed on ebay - search for 200ZR (its the only one)

Fatz: Nah i broke down in dural! must be another one out there having problems. Call or msg me if your interested. Thanks.

200zRRR: No problem. The response has been good so far so i doubt I will divide it up. Thanks.

KummaZ: No books and yes im sure it does have some rust - its been sitting around for a couple of months and I didnt really drive it that much in the first place. Its old and in good condition BUT its not brand new. Body isnt perfect but mostly good. Thats mainly why i want ppl to look at it before offering me money or bidding on it. Dont want any unrealistic expectations. Call or email me if you have any other questions. Thanks.

    • Why not? Since mines been built, I've used low boost maybe 5 times.
    • Yeah, so widen your search to any Nissan speedo first, then go wider if needed. I will say though, that there is a better than even chance that what I said first will likely come into play. They quite possibly won't come apart without damage. I tried to disassemble a stepper gauge that I wanted to repair. There was no way that needle was coming off the spindle, and I could not see how the spindle would come out of the mechanism behind. Assembled once, never to be disassembled, was my conclusion. Could be the same on the R34 cluster. Failing that - take the cluster to a workshop that specialises in automotive instrument work. There's usually at least one in every Australian city. They'll either be able to do it for you for small cost, or tell you it can't be done. It might be that "it can't be done" unless you follow some arcane procedure, including trickiness to glue it back together or something, that only experienced techs know.
    • Well, given that I, an engineer, almost never bring out the torque wrench to tighten up chassis bolts, despite fully knowing the theory, and instead rely on feel, which I happen to know is exactly how the majority of mechanics do things, should tell you the level of actual peril that exists from not achieving exactly 88 Nm of torque. How about if I just say then that 88Nm is at the lower end of the correct wheel nut torque range? Everyone knows how to tighten a wheel nut, right? And almost no-one ever brings out the torque wrench for that task
    • Don't be ridiculous. "2-3 ugga duggas or one Oof. You have to use Oof on tie rods because you can't get an ugga dugga on there." Is not helping the guy at all.
    • I have done a lot of research before posting here and on gtruk forum. couldn't find anything. I have my gauges all part except the needle itself. the needle has a extremely small hole in the center, but the shaft going to the needle is extremely small and appears to have nothing to index it either. doesn't seem strong enough to simple pry or pull without damaging something. Already tried the old spoon trick on a extra triple meter I have from a gtt, but no luck. the center cap comes off easily but the hole in the meter face plate aren't big enough to get over the needle itself. figured this would be my best place to find someone who might have actually removed theirs. wonder if there is some type of small pin press tool to push the pin in while pulling the needle base off.
