Quick Sale: R31 Silhouette Manual, Mazda Mx6 Turbo


Recommended Posts

Hi guys I have 5 cars :S

I need to get rid of a few of them.

If they sell quick I will let them go for $2000 each no less.

If it takes too long I will have to put more rego on them and I will end up putting them in the paper for more $'s.

Known issues:

It's done 320,000km but it has full log books and has been serviced regularly, I have had this car for 2 months, previous owner had it for 8 years and took very good care of it (He was my old boss).

Previous owner snapped the petrol door wire thingy... so that needs to be replaced or fixed... You can pull the cable easily via the boot.

Petrol guage comes and goes, I assume it just needs the wiring looked at in the fuel tank.

Appart from that this car is perfect, I never have any problems with it and its a strong engine, LSD throws it sideways quite easilly.

Also the stock exhaust was pretty shagged so I removed it from the first muffler and welded in a stainless center ofset from an LS1 and then made up a tempory exhaust out of some 2.25" pipe. It sounds aweosme for a free exhaust but I have it running under the diff due to ease. If you really cared that much you could replace the tail pipe at an exhaust shop, can't see it costing much more than $100. Also it doesn't hit on any thing ect.

Known issues:

It has a bit of a lifter knock, This is probably because I havn't started the car in about 5 months. Prolly just needs an oil change but I cbfed.

It didn't have a knock in it when I used this as my daily, seemed to develop it after it was sitting on my lawn for so long.

there is a bit of an exhaust leak, I am working on it atm so I should have it fixed before any 1 looks at it.

    • Looking at finally painting and installing my R32 GTR wing I bought back in 2018. I got two quotes: Quote 1: $880 includes: wing, spare boot, holes welded up prep/paint. Pro: full boot with wing AND hole-less boot with lip i can swap between Con: $$  Quote 2: $330 wing only. Pro: cheaper Con: lose my (relatively) rare no holes sedan boot Also to consider I do plan on painting my whole car at some point "soon" (been saying that since 2018) Anyway Enjoy these All Japan Day 2025 pictures of my 4 door, still rocking the Calsonic Livery! Rolling in Interior shot Matching Peer Pressure Racing overalls are pretty cute ngl. This year was a hard 1990 cut so I got to be over with all the older cool stuff Next to arguably the best car there. A mighty S-Cargo
    • I personally would run 2x from the cam covers into the catch can, 1x sump vent to catch can (would mount this at a low point of the catch can, so it can also act as a drain). I would see if you can run a -12AN down there to improve venting and also draining. The head drain thing, just drain that back to the sump on the other side. Catch can to be vented, unless you plumb or back to the intake.
    • Yeah the head "drain" is rather a sump/crank case vent. My catch can stopped filling up after venting the sump to the catch can. I have 4x fittings in mine, which is about 5Ls. 2x cam, 1x sump vent/catch can drain, 1x fitting back to the intake and a massive breather which can be blocked so it's a fully sealed system.
    • Ok glad you clarified on the frenchy’s options , I was worried about if my oem hoses would fit the new compressor or not if I just bought the bracket/compressor kit ,  didn’t realize they also sold a larger full conversion kit. Hmm may just go oem in that case then to make it easy only because I plan to sell this car to upgrade to a 32 GTR or 34 GTT.
    • Right, here's a video of the basic operation at least.  This is what you can expect day to day when you turn the car on and it boots from standby.  The only thing from a media point of view I haven't gotten working is for it to autoplay plexamp when it turns on from standby (it works from cold boot) but that's more of a plexamp problem as it will autoplay other music players.  Also attached is my one stray cable.  It's part of the screen's wiring adapters but there's just nowhere for it to go in my car.  I've just now done a bit of research and found a matching port on a 2010-2014 head unit with BOSE.  Mine has no BOSE so that's that case pretty much closed I think.  Plugging in the Infiniti AC panel basically did nothing for me, so that's a dead end as well.  Next port of call is to mess with this CANBUS module and see what I can find from it.  I found this resource containing the DBC files for a 2010+ G37 : https://github.com/icecube45/Dash_InfinitiG37/blob/master/InfinitiG37.dbc I'll now have something to go from when I try to extract my CANBUS data so I can see if the HVAC Mode, Fan Speed, Temperature, etc. match and also the gear shifter position.  It's a pretty big assumption that it's just mismatched CAN signals but considering all the devices in the CAN network are talking to each other (AC can be fully adjusted just with no info on screen) it might be a safe one.  I will report back WhatsApp Video 2025-02-26 at 12.49.10.mp4
