2004 BA XR6 Turbo Manual Sedan.

Up For sale is my 2004 Xr6 Turbo manual sedan I have owned it for 2 years and am the second owner. The car has been serviced regularly and has just had a major service. I have modified the car very lightly and have never had any problems with it besides a starter motor (that has just been replaced). I'm selling the car as I just purchased a house with my partner and would like to spend the repayment money elsewhere.

I have recently fitted 2 new tyres, a heavy duty starter motor, new brake pads and a brand new battery, I have also had the tinting replaced and a Ford factory towbar fitted (although I have never towed with it).

The car has been debadged at the rear with only the Ford logo remaining in the center of the boot (I have a set of original badges I purchased from Ford that will be included with the car if you wish to put them back on).

The car will be sold with a RWC and the remaining rego approx 10months, I will also have the car professionally detailed before it is picked up. I also have a spare turbo manifold that came with the new turbo that will be included.

PLEASE NOTE: The car is under finance and I will require payment to clear before I can hand over the keys.

Modifications:

* X-Force Twin Tip Exhaust (cat back)

* K&N Flat Panel filter and modified air box

* BA Series II Typhoon turbo (with the larger wastgate)

* Walbro 255lt Fuel Pump

* Exedy Heavy Duty Clutch

* Lightened Flywheel

* Lowered springs and aftermarket struts

* 19" G-Max wheels (some gutter rash)

* DBA slotted and cross-drilled rotors (front only)

* Polk Momo Speakers connected to the stock headunit (I also have all the wiring fitted and a amp in the boot all you require is a headunit, there is currently a headunit fitted to the car however it is not the best and isn't secured correctly I will take it out before sale or leave it in whatever suits the buyer it is included with the car either way.).

The only two negatves with the car are a slight shopping trolley dent in the front drivers door (barely noticeable) and some slight damage to the front bar which is underneath and also not very noticeable.

I will put some more photos up shortly.

Car is located in Ferntree Gully Vic.

Please call Andrew on 0406004135 if you have any questions or would like to view the car.

Feel free to call or message if you want to mae an offer needs to be sold ASAP

Would also be interested in a swap for a daily driver plus cash my way...I just got my r33 going again after a full rebuild so need something to use as a daily once the xr6 is sold..

The xr has awesome fuel economy with the new pump installed getting 10.4/100km

Just to add I've had a few offers for swaps I still have 8k on the loan so will need at least that much on top. Something worth 4-6k with the cash ontop I'd be happy with. R32s or r33s, silvias etc im happy with anything really

For those that asked via pm it was dynod at 223kW atw and is running the police tune (my brother is a mechanic at Ford so he flashed/updated the computer for me). Also the typhoon turbo came off a car that had done 40000km I have put roughly another 10000km on it since then.

Took it to the mechanics for a service yesterday and to see what it would need for roadworthy. Now has new plugs and oil. For a rwc it needs wipers replaced, new parkers cos it has red ones fitted, a number plate globe replaced and that's it.. ill get it all done before it's sold..it also now has a cracked front fog light lense (I'm just waiting till next pay so I can order a replacement). Also comes with 2 amps and an extra stocky wheel (so 2 including the spare). Also I have all the stock speakers if the buyer wants them.

NOW ACCEPTING OFFERS AS I NEED IT GONE MY HOUSE HAS ALMOST FINISHED BEING BUILT AND I'VE FOUND A NEW DAILY I WISH TO BUY.

    • In a few years from now, you'll regret that. It'll eat away at you, knowing the truth of the ugly hiding beneath the beautiful exterior... 😛
    • I don't think the G2 profile is particularly dangerous for the engine per se, more just are you actually ok with the turbo lag trade-offs? If the answer is yes then go for it. I personally don't think I'd be ok with it because I spend so much time at lower RPMs and I really enjoy the feeling of being able to stay in 5th gear on the highway and just roll into the throttle to get boost. Or staying in 3rd gear on "gentle canyon cruises" without feeling the turbo lag too badly. The 525 pump should be able to run flat out on factory lines but I would bet the pressure drop from pump to regulator is quite impressive. I don't know how much it would be exactly but I've seen figures like 30 psi thrown around.
    • It's interesting seeing everyone talk about what level of risk they are happy to tolerate.  Building a GTR always has a level of risk, you could be that lucky guy that drops 20k on the engine build alone and still has the thing go pop on the dyno. Life is fun like that.  The way I see it, the thing is a toy to be enjoyed. I'd be happy to turn up the power on stock motor and limit the risk with sensible tuning and engine protection. If it still goes pop, it is what it is. The car isn't a daily driver so it can happily sit while a plan is made to sort it out.  Given this thing will be a street car only, I really feel it's worth the (relatively small if managed well) risk to turn the power up to around 350KW on e85.  I don't think anyone getting into the skyline game now is doing it out of logic. Surely it is a purely emotional decision so I'm not sure how important it is to think about the engine build logically. The heart wants what it wants.  @joshuaho96 little note for Josh, I run my 525 pump flat out all the time and through the factory lines without any issues. (excluding the melting connectors, that's sorted now. we'll pretend it never happened lol)
    • But the Nexus S3 is very expensive and won't be as purpose-built for the application as a separate electronic boost controller :^) More seriously my pet issue here would be that the Walbro 525 running at 100% duty cycle is going to require more FPR than the stock setup can handle. I'm also pretty sure from what I've seen elsewhere you might want to slow down the pump regardless unless you're going to come up with some way of upsizing the fuel lines coming from the fuel tank. Factory 8mm fuel line doesn't actually flow very much if you want to keep pressure drop down between the fuel pump outlet and FPR. If you really want to "keep it simple" I would run only as much pump as you need and source a fuel pump controller to slow down the pump in the vain hope of being able to run stock-style FPRs which are pretty dinky. Or just use the HICAS lines and it should be mostly fine. OP should also really think hard about what profile they'd want out of the turbo. My pet choice here would be the G1 profile rather than anything higher power but YMMV. I already think ~stock turbo lag is pretty bad so I don't want to make it worse. In "gentle canyon cruising" I found that I spent a lot of time around 4-4.5k RPM. I also recommend DIYing labor if you're detail-oriented enough. Costs are high for labor + if you do it yourself you can be your own quality control.
    • GTSBoy is again on the money. My actual advice? Sell the car. (really). For what it's worth as is, you can sidegrade into something much better. If you care about function then this is the actual move. If you want a Skyline to perform, set aside about $100K to do it. This is NOT a typo. You will see right away these are two very different mindsets. Realistically we're talking full restomod for any Skyline still kicking around. Have an honest think about which one you are.. and what you want to do, and how much you want to invest in this (with no return).
