Year: 2003

Make: Nissan

Model: Stagea M35 250T RS4

Engine: VQ25DET (2.5L V6 with single turbo)

Transmission: 5 speed Automatic with tiptronic

Kms: 94,000 - next service will be 100,000 km but not as expensive as some other cars - this car has a timing chain which doesn't need replacing.

Driveline: AWD (ATTESA)

Price: $18,000 - or otherwise give me a price and we'll go from there.

Features: Digital Climate Control incl Econ option, 3-guage DIN in dash (front torque, volts, and boost),electric fold-in mirrors, self-closing boot option, split rear boot hatch, extra storage space under boot floor.

The car is completely stock with the exception of a VDO stereo (aftermarket, professionally fitted) which can play mp3/wma/ogg, and accepts SD/MMC cards, CDs, and USB sticks.

Imported Oct 2008. Has had 2 x full engine service, plus transmission service also. Only selling due to finances, have a baby on the way and will be going to single-income soon. Still need a wagon but looking for something cheaper which will give us some money for expenses.

If you're interested in the car, make an offer.

(the cord in the 3rd pic is just a portable satnav unit - not included in sale).

Also note: stereo has been changed (see above).

Please Note: there are 2 cigarette burns to the front seats - which were there when the car came over from japan. Also boost guage only works intermittently. The rest of the interior is spotless however. Inspections welcome. :D

P.S. the title says 'no swaps' but if you have a good condition s2 auto stagea and would like to upgrade to M35, I may consider a swap + some cash my way.

UPDATE:

I have since moved to Adelaide, SA (as of August 2009). Rego has been transferred to SA rego.

The car has been advertised on carsales.com.au as of today (April 24, 2010).

The car is still running very reliably and is in the same condition as the above photos show.

Major 100,000km service has been carried out by a professional workshop.

All regular servicing is up to date and only full synthetic oils have been used.

The odometer reading is currently 120,000km.

The price remains at $18000 (this is lower than the price advertised on carsales and is therefore not negotiable).

inspections welcome - please PM me on here.

    • No worries, everything worked out in the end. I just wanted to make the point that it doesn't matter where it comes from (I.E Australia), it can be broken or improperly built. I would still purchase from these companies in the future. B2R - Not certain how that finished, this was on a car I wired a few things and street tuned. I know the owner ended up shipping the motor back to Australia for investigation. Hopefully some of it is covered under warranty.  Turbosmart - I always pressure test everything that goes on my car. It's a habit from my career in oil and gas. I run two 40mm's and both had major leaks from the actuator to exhaust portion through the shaft. I returned both, they shipped me back two and one was leaking and the other had a 38mm top (40mm gate with 38mm actuator cap, no idea how that happens). Eventually after a lot of back and forth I found myself with two non-leaking gates. I believe this happens a lot more then people would like to believe but you would never know if you don't pressure test them prior to installation. Crank Motorsport - Issued a full refund and let me keep the seat rails. I turned them into scrap metal for other projects. GKTech - Shipped me out a replacement and asked that I modify it as per my idea and that they would do the same for a future revision. ATP - Can just needed a large shim to bolt up properly.  Haltech - They started an actual proper Beta channel for firmware's a few months back and stopped using the general public for testing. I'm now much happier.  Speedtek - f**k Speedtek. I would love to watch them burn.     
    • I've got a Turbosmart wastegate, ATP catch can, many GK Tech parts and Haltech everything. Everything's been perfect, sorry to hear your experience wasn't the same
    • The only high-power RB I've personally seen go pop after running for all of an hour on a dyno was built by B2R, while being remotely tuned by B2R. The only wastegates I've ever had leak like a sieve, return, still leak, return and get shipped back the wrong ones were from Turbosmart. The only final drive that I've ever purchased that were unusable, twice... were from Speedtek. The only seat mounts that I've ever purchased that placed the seats in the door frame were from Crank Motorsport. The only poorly designed parts that I had the manufacturer confirm should have been designed as per what I mentioned were from GKTech. The only ECU I've had firmware updates consistently break things are Haltech. The only catch can I've purchased that didn't fit in its advertised spot was from ATP. So forth and so on... Moral of the story, doesn't matter where it's from. Do your research beforehand and stick with products and companies you've trusted in the past.    @joshuaho96 If you want it done right, do it yourself.
    • Something coarse-ish. 180 is good.
    • I was surprised to see all the quick Jack models at the same prices on there. But yeah, grabbing one at 20% off would be great.
