Im not too sure whether it was from a Nismo Stagea or a Autech, i never knew there was 2 different types, but i definately know it was from a turbo Stagea.

To answer your second question, yes i do have a Blue slip which was needed for registration, otherwise i wouldnt have been able to get the car passed. My mechanic told me who checked my car said everything was fine and all i had to do was take the aftermarket air filter off and put a standard one back on just to get it passed to cover his back. The intercooler and exhaust was done by a mob over at Smithfield with the mechanic Dave doing it and the enigne change was done by a guy who i was told about who knew about his stuff and was helped by a guy from SSS automotive with the elcectrical wiring etc. So yeah, everything is fine and on record at the RTA for proof. Also you can get a silencer for the exhaust which may be over the sound limit but for the 1/2 year i have had the exhaust on it, i have never been pulled up about it. But i have the stock exhaust still here if you like to take if you buy the car just incase.

If you like, just give me a ring and i can show you the car sometime on the weekend.

so only exhaust and air filters are defects?

front mount and clutch is fine?

-------

does the car have tints? do u have log books? how many k's have the tires done? air con? how long have u owned the car for?

was gonna speak to u on phone abt that - but i've got a sore throat

Well i know many people with the same kind of 3" exhaust systems and havent been pulled up about it so im not sure whether its classed as a defect or not. The air filter, well, id say in "legal" terms its callsed as defect but just like the exhaust, i know many people with them and havent been asked about it, so im not sure on an exact answer.

The front mount intercooler is fine aswell as the clutch. The clutch had been upgraded to support the stress. Its a heavy duty Daikin clutch.

The car is tinted. I have no log books though but everythign was changed with new soark plugs/iol and everythign when the conversion was done about 5000km's or less ago.

Im not sure how many k's the tyres have done as they were on there from the previous owner but the tyres dont have much tread at all. They need new tread quite soon but im guessing whoever buys it will put bigger wheels on it anyhow and sell the smaller wheels.

Yep the air conditioner is perfectly fine. I replaced the condenser in it and re-gased it so its all perfectly working.

I have owned the car for about, getting close to a year i think, not too sure to be exact.

hmmm i'll take the exhaust and filter as defect

who was the car purchased off? do u have receipt if it was off dealer? what was the reason for engine transplant? how much did it cost? receipt to engine transplant?

are u free on sunday? i'd come down in the morning to have a look at it

It was purchased off a guy who was in the airforce and he told me that he got it imported while he was in QLD. I got it in the tradingpost. I dont have the reciept for when i purchased the actual car off him as it was a private deal and wouldnt have meanbt nothing.

The reasonm for the transplant was because i wanted it to be 4WD and turbo like the GTR, but of course wihtout the twin turbo. It has great handling and traction with the 4WD.

The Stagea engine itself cost $3300 i think with the ECU etc. But then i added the boost gauge, clutch, intercooler, exhaust, 3 point immobilizer, GTR wing and so on.

The car itself cost me $16500 stock non-turbo and the whole cost of converting it was close on $10000. It was either more or less. Little things like the wiring had to be all reconfigured

to match it with the Stagea ECU wiring of the GTS4 so it cost me alone $800 alone for 2 sessions for the guy to come out to get that done properly! I have the reciept for the engine etc and exhaust and intercooler.

Yep im free sunday if you like to see it, just give us a call on my mobile.
