like i said i will give ya 8 grand n take it by the weekend, coz i gotta replace the coils coz the oil leaks n fix the oil leaks on the motor and box

i will tell u know from wat i seen the other day no one will give ya 12 G's if they know wat to look at or for

Edited by SLY-dN

Price now $11500

In reply to the above comments, the coil overs are not leaking, the visible oil on them is actually spray on grease which I was told to apply by my mechanic. The suspension is racing suspension and is therefore inherently squeaky and creaky. The grease helps to reduce some of the noise it makes. Not trying to name drop but I was told this by Colin Osborne’s Race Engineer for the Australian Production Car Championship so I believe I'm telling a reasonable amount of truth!!

As for oil leaks, yes the area in question looks dirty and greasy however in the time I have had the car it has never consumed oil at any noticeably excessive rate and I have had it serviced at approx 6 month intervals. I have used it as a daily driver, with no problems and have even done a few long trips in it (i.e. Canberra --> Hobart, Adelaide --> Melbourne, Wagga --> Adelaide). The car is being fully inspected next week so I will have a mechanics report available to show anyone interested.

This car has been well looked after since arriving in Aus and I’m definitely going to be sad to see her go. That said I would rather keep her than let it go for a steal. I’m under no illusion it’s not perfect hence the price and the negotiable bit.

If anyone else thinks I'm crazy for asking this price, feel free to let me know, but do so via PM rather than publicly.

Regards

Laine

Hi All,

Inspection has been done and there are no problems with the car. Only points noted by the mechanic were a loose banjo bolt on the turbo which he did up and a small oil leak coming from the rocker cover. He tightened up the rocker cover bolts also and said they were a tad loose, so it should be sorted now.

Other than that he said all around the car was in excellent mechanical condition. He also said he is more than happy to chat to anyone independently about the car if they wish to. I can supply his number if anyone is interested.

Cheers

Laine

    • Jap premium will be 100 RON. You should use 98.
    • The exhaust gases are at their highest temperature as they leave the exhaust port and enter the manifold. They cool as they flow through the manifold because they transfer heat to the manifold and the manifold loses heat to the surrounding environment. Thus, inevitably, the exhaust gases are cooler as they enter the turbo compared to when they entered the exhaust manifold. So, yes, the exhaust manifold can easily get as hot as the turbine housing. Having said that, you will generally see the highest temperatures where the exhaust gases have to slow down or they are concentrated into one area - which is usually the collector on the manifold and in the turbine housing, because the gases slam into the metal at those places, increasing the convective heat transfer coefficient and transferring even more heat to the metal than they might just flowing past elsewhere. Exhaust manifold heat shields are a good idea - certainly for the stock manifold they are there from the factory. People seldom have anything like that on a tubular manifold because they are hard to achieve. Some might wrap a tube manifold with fibreglass tape - but this has a reputation of leading to cracked welds. The best case is generally to put ceramic coating onto the manifold to prevent it getting as hot (internal coating) and radiating/convecting heat into the bay (external coating). All the real heat from a turbo comes from the exhaust side. The gases entering are at ~800-900°C and the steel/iron gets nearly that hot. The compressor side is only going to heat the charge air up to <<200°C (typically not much more than 100°C). So that's nothing, by comparison. The compressor is not a significant source of engine bay heat.
    • Late to the party, specifically joined this forum as I just bought one of these and this thread has been a gold mine of info. If the OP is still around, mind if I ask what gas you been putting in yours? Mine has a Japanese sticker in the cap saying premium but it seems to get way worse mileage on premium (95) than 91. I always thought it was meant to be the other way round🤷 I do think Nissans claimed "6l/100km" is a bit fantastical 😂
    • Does exhaust manifold get hot as turno exhuast side? I have a turbo cover to managr heat in the engine bay but  nothing is covering the exhaust manifold before turbo   i know as turbo does compress air, the temp does go up however does that mean exhaust manifold would be as hot?
    • It's excellent but I'm still breaking it in so I'm not 100% sure where it'll end up. I would say it's about 15% heavier than stock and the smoothness of the slip zone is quite progressive but you need to be a little patient compared to stock or it'll bite hard and stall. Stock I got away with absolutely horrid clutch control. Like I said before I couldn't even tell where the clutch would grab when it was stock so releasing way too quickly without enough revs it would just slip and the revs would drop lower than ideal but that would be the end of it. Currently there's a bit of a nasty clutch judder if I don't apply enough revs + find the exact wrong point of the slip point in the clutch pedal but it feels like it's slowly resolving as I drive it more. I would not recommend the competition clutch unless you really need the extra clamp force. I think this clutch combined with the Nismo operating cylinder is going to be exactly what I want. Enough bite that you need to remember the release point to avoid stalling or rough shifts, but progressive enough that it's not hard to drive by any means and not heavy at all. I tried a "super single" clutch on my friend's 997.2 Turbo 6MT and that was absolutely horrid. It runs an electrohydraulic power steering pump for the clutch power boost so there's zero feedback in the clutch pedal and there was a horrific clutch shudder well after break-in due to the lack of marcel springs or hub springs in the friction disk. It felt like the slip zone was the thickness of a single toe twitch as well so it was almost impossible to avoid stalling it unless you gave it a ton of revs and just dumped the clutch instead of trying to be smooth with it. I was terrified of pulling out in front of traffic. I have also tried some kind of "super single" on an EK9 and that makes this twin plate Coppermix look like a stock clutch. Releasing the clutch pedal even slightly too quickly feels like you're getting rear-ended. The pedal is extremely heavy as well and there's no vacuum assist like the GTR.
