I have owned this car for 19months and it has never let me down. I purchased it just under 80k km, had the timing kit done at around 80k km(receipt provided). It has also had the radiator reco'd(sticker still on rad), a new thermostat(precaution), new coolant temp sensor, the IAC valve cleaned, throttle body cleaned etc. serviced every 4-6k km with fuchs 10w30. Most recent service i used motul 10w40.

I bought the car dead stock(which means I have the standard parts) from the first aussie owner who owned it for ~3yrs and put ~35k km on it(he also had a company car). All the modifications have been well thought out and carried out to complement the car.

- 86dB 3" Turboback exhaust- JJR Stainless dump/front(heat wrapped), Catco 3" cat, custom(Rowville exhausts) 3" mild steel catback with mild mid and stainless magnaflow rear muffler.

- Whiteline Springs fitted, standard supplied.

- Front RDA slotted rotors(standard supplied)

- Rear Endless SSS pads

- Blitz Turbo Timer which also displays boost, Fitted with a kit for Alarm integration, professionally installed with the Alarm. Alarm automatically arms once car shuts off, even if you don't lock the car!

- Aus Standard Approved Alarm/Immobilizer with keyless entry.

- Alpine 9857i with iPod connector(might be swapped out for equivalent JVC deck, as i have had this HU in all my cars)

- Hertz Rear 2-ways(installed professionally with dynamat in custom mounts behind standard door trims)

- my sub amp will be taken out and yours fitted at point of sale, as i have an attachment to it :)

- Bridgestone RE001 tyres.

- Car has been dyno'd to check AFR's

$15,750 Slightly negotiable: Upon receiving deposit, the car will be booked into Micolour for touch ups of the bottom of the front bar and a professional cut and polish/detail to bring it back to showroom condition. Car will be serviced the day before it is picked up, cold start valve cleaned, and all bushes relubed to get rid of squeaks(whiteline bushes seem to need a relube after a while). Reg added, me aiding in requiring RWC.

OR

A price to be negotiated, None(or some) of the above tidy up stuff done(if you prefer to DIY), could also removed stereo to reduce price.

Reg is until October or November, can be negotiated for another 12months to be added, I can aid in RWC upon sale.

Car is parked undercover in the inner-suburbs of Melbourne.

I am sure there is more I could add, so will try and remember it to add when I wash it and put up photos. As you can see, all mods are of good quality, all maintenance has been done. This is a VERY reliable car, NEVER let me down, I have used it when i had un-reliable datsun projects, and then moved house with it(can fit a fridge in it easy :P ), and it has been the grocery getter as the mrs and I get trains to work. The reason I have put so many km on the car is my fiance's family are in Geelong, over 150km away, and the rest out in Colac, and her family being rather close has resulted in alot of trips to see them.

This car would suit someone with a young family, a preggy mrs, or someone who goes away a lot or needs the space for bikes or work gear.

Contact me via PM for any enquires, I will supply my mobile number, happy to meet locally to you. I am interested in swapping it for a GTR, EVO, FD, with cash from me. I would also consider swaps for a cheap run-around car + cash.

Kylie, PM me your e-mail address. I would love for it to go to someone from the "SAU stagea family" :ninja: Obviously price is adjusted for interstate buyers to reflect not adding rego.

I will try and find time to get it washed tomorrow night, been out to the country the past two weekeneds so it needs a rinse.

crap, cant edit the first post, my number is 0404 824 819, Text me during work hours(8.30am-430pm), and i will call you back shortly, sms only after 8pm aswell

landline available by request(work and home)

and I also have a folder of receipts to go with the car.

Edited by Ryan1600

Please note, I am not going to do the normal forum weekly price drop BS, if you are genuinely interested in the car but the listed price is a deterrent, please give me a call, as I stated, I am negotiable, and I just didn't really know how to price it.

Cheers,

Ryan

forgot to say that will be with 12months reg added from date of purchase. reg is due end of october.

I WILL get hold of a digital camera at some point, but went away for the weekend for my b'day. wet, low tyre press, air con/demister on in the hills 12l/100, fwy in rain with wind n shit, 10l/100km

If you are in melbourne and interested I rather you just meet me somewhere to inspect than wait for photos, as I have very little time to stuff around with pix on the weekend, and even if you dont buy/make and offer, it will help you value other cars.

    • Clutch done also about a year ago got a DCS HD Single Plate. Basically done everything but touch the engine 🤣 But will definitely get a fuel pump and ECU, then start saving 🫡
    • Fuel pump and clutch and ecu that’ll get you to about 230 or so kw, after that the sky’s the limit and the budget blows out faster then you can blink 
    • Should add all mods on the car are done in my ownership. The car was a 1 owner in Japan and I'm first owner in Aus.
    • Thanks GTSBoy. Did BC's so not Japanese coilovers. I've already done all the other points you mentioned besides the seat, I like the factory seats and want to keep original look. Done all the fluids and comp tests etc and all consistent and clean. Well and truly used to the power and car as I've been driving it for a few years as it is now. Contemplating next steps mainly. Preference to remain twins too. @Murray_Calavera Paying for labour.
    • Hmm. I don't think it is possible. As soon as you start, you will be on the hook for all the money. $5-10k is enough to make it fragile. Here's the list of things you need to do to make it nice, and driveable. If Japanese coilovers, get them measured and tested, then decide if you're keeping them or replacing them. If low rate springs, then consider big ARBs. If high rate springs, then probably leave stock ARBs. Either way, ad decent end links. Replace and/or upgrade all suspension bushes. That's LCAs front and rear, UCAs & traction arms at rear, caster rods at front. I highly recommend GKTech FUCAs, although the step to spherical joints is a step too far for some people. Rebuild brakes front and rear. This means making sure the calipers are healthy, discs are up to thickness, hoses are replaced with braided. Add good pads and fluid. Investigate wheel bearings all the way around, tie rod ends all the way around, upright bearings at the front, balljoints everywhere. Any of these that are still original are likely to be a bit wibbly nowadays. Bride or Recaro driver's seat, with fairly deep sides. Nice tyres. Street performance wheel alignment. Or track focused, if you're not going to use it on the road. Fluids everywhere if not known to be fresh. Now, learn to drive the car as hard as it will go, before trying to add any power. Save up big $$. $5k is the minimum cost for putting a decent ECU into it. A big single, with manifold, new exhaust, injectors, fuel system upgrade, ignition upgrade, triggering upgrade, etc, is >>$10k. None of that (except the ECU) is a good idea on an old RB. You really should put head studs in it, investigate engine health (compression and leak down, real oil pressure at revs, coolant condition, etc) before even considering adding power. There's nothing sadder than the "I added boost then it shat the bed" thread.
