Hi all.

I am looking to sell or even better swap my 89 Pintara wagon

I've just recently rebuilt it and im still running it in. I had some big plans for it so it was built right and built to last. I was planning on trying to squeeze around the 350RWKW mark out of it on E85 but there is no reason why it shouldn't handle more. The only thing that should hold it back would be the stock exh manifold.

Mod list:

S1 rb25 rebuilt literally a few weeks ago.

Eagle h beams

Cp 86.5 forgies

Acl race series mains and big ends

Arp head studs and rod bolts

Head rebuilt with new seals etc all Nissan stuff.

800cc injectors

Atr43g3 internal wastegate

Full 3" exhaust

Clutch is custom exedy sports tuff but with modified pivot point and ceramic button plate

Rb25 turbo box

Bw lsd with 28 spline axles

Tein front camber adjustable coilovers

King springs in rear

Full rose jointed castor arms etc

R33 brakes

Gts wheels (r31)

Walbro 460l e85 pump

Haltech e11v2

Car looks completely stock apart from wheels. Stock interior, the lot.

In fact I have been pulled over for rbt and they haven't even looked at the car.

I did a road tune and 500km on 98 and have done another road tune and so far 400km on E85. Almost ready to put it on the dyno and go for it.

It has r31 GTS wheels and brand n rubber. I can send pics of engine build etc if required.

Awesome car for someone who wants a quick car but also needs

Something that is a bit practical and can take kids. Has tow bar etc.

Fully engineered and legal. Passed RWC/Pink slip 2 weeks ago and just put 6 months rego on it.

Only reason i am selling because i need a 4WD.

TBH i have no idea what its worth so im going to say $7000 and offers from there. Also be keen to swap for a 4WD.

I will get more photos and put them up when the weather clears up.

Had plenty of compliments and a couple of lowballers but no reasonable offers. Think I'd rather keep it and sell the wife's car than sell dirt cheap. Time to keep going with the project. Thanks anyway guys.

    • I haven’t taken them out of the cases yet    inside the box is this packaging which is pretty much like a massive blister pack 
    • Purchased a NC MX5 a while ago Basic suspension mods done, BC coils and Whiteline sway bars  New DBA calipers, discs and pads Added some 17 x 8 Konig Decagrams with 215/45 17 PS5's Added some typical NA bolt on's, i.e. full exhaust and intake  Added 0.5ltrs with a MZR2.5 swap, nice bump in torques  Found a detachable hard top which is locked in for a colour match with my local paint shop in Feb 25, this also includes some PDR as it has received a few love taps from parking in the local shops when in the hands of my Minister for War and Finances, me, I park nowhere near other cars and typically park on the street The little thing is awesome, I drive it everywhere, it handles like a dream whether I'm up it or just cruising  But now,  because I'm a idiot, I keep looking at turbo kits....... did I mention I'm a idiot Why is dose so appealing  All of the NA 2.5 glory, well.......until sometime in 2025 anyway....🤪  
    • I would not be surprised if you are the only person on earth that has the interest/desire to do that lol.  The Haltech base map is a really good starting point, the car will fire easily and drive very well, even on mild boost levels. To me, following your advice sounds like some sort of ancient Chinese water torcher lol (this is not an insult Josh, never change <3)
    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new
