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.

    • Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)  
    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.            
    • Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
    • Wow the colour matched hard top completely transforms the car. Are there any nice front lip options for the car or is that off the table?
    • Generally yes but for some reason I've been ruthless this time around!  I might even need to do another tip run after the way I've finally been able to hit the delete button on shit I've stepped over, stepped around and tripped over for the past 10 years!
