Up for sale is this very stock, auto, SR20DET silvia. There's not much I can say about it... it runs really well and is nice and tight, with the only modifications being an HKS mushroom filter, HKS turbo timer, 16' ROH rims, and possibly some sort of aftermarket mufler. The body is straight and the paint is in pretty good condition. It's been resprayed in burgundy with only a few small scratches here and there, one deleted spoiler hole starting to show, and a bit of paint missing on the front bar (as seen in pics). The interior is in pretty good condition too, with no rips or cracks... just minor wear. The driver side window does have an intermittent tendency to not want to go down. Mechanically the car feels great... due to being auto and stock i reckon it's lived a pretty easy life. The motor run really well, the suspension and brakes work a treat. The only real fault is that the automatic transmission sometimes does this strange thing where it doesn't want to shift from 2nd. It does only happens sometimes and when it does it either just go's away on its own, or if i stop and put it in P it will behave (Probably faulty TPS). I have only owned this car for about 3 weeks. I bought it from a car yard on impulse... it was convenient, they traded my car, and i thought I'd "do it up", but my plans have changed! It was a pointless purchase and i need to stop and think before buying things from here on in!! This would be a great car to base a build-up on... it feels like it's lived a pretty easy life. It could even make a nice, simple daily for those who prefer the gears to shift on there own. It passed a roadworthy just over a month ago (07/09) so shouldn't need a thing.

    • Factory LSD is supposedly a 2 way with a very conservative cam. If you've already tried adding friction modifier to the diff oil and it still locks up too much for your liking you might want to adjust the ramp rate on the cam to be more like OEM instead of reducing initial torque even further. People claim the 8 kgf-m disc kit for the OEM LSD is still very streetable but I've never been able to compare everything side by side on my own.
    • Oh man, at least it sounds they've accepted they stuffed up and not put it back on you...could see some confusion if they asked if it had a hardtop or not, and you've answered truthfully but maybe not answering their real question which is what roof did it have from the factory! Glad your keeping it N/A 2.5
    • Nah, I much prefer colour matched Talking about colour matching stuff, the new/used boot lid turned up, all painted up perfectly......aaaannnndddd, it's for a power retractable hard top, not a soft top.....LOL They are now sending a boot to fit a soft top.....,  whilst frustrating, life is like that sometimes, sometimes you just need to dodge, duck, dip, dive and, ummm, dodge.
    • You would need to paint your hardtop again though
    • I have an old R32 in the shed that hasnt moved much in the last few years and probably should see the light of day. At one point I had a Nismo 1.5 centre put in the rear diff. It is a clunky nightmare POS of a thing on a good day. To make it less painful the initial torque setting has been put on the minimum (7.0kgf-m, mid is 9.5, high is 14) and the oil changed out to something more slippery. But it is still awful and ruins the vibe of the thing. So my questions are: Given I have the original parts sitting in a box somewhere would it be better to rebuild the thing again, reverting to more purity? Is there a standard kit or do you just go and replace the friction plates etc and shim it the way you like it. How much initial torque does the standard R32 rear diff have? Or does the Nismo disc kit offer a better solution - the caveat being the initial torque for both options appears to be higher than the clunky 1.5 way. There appear to be two Nismo disc kits: 3843S-RS520 for 8kgf-m. 3843S-RS521 for 12kgf-m. Or is the easiest solution to reshim the Nismo diff to make it looser?
