Hey Guys

Im looking at a skyline for sale. It has 12/95 Australian compliance plate. From what i know the series 2 only started in 96.

It has everything a series 2 has even the interior, passenger and driver airbag, series 2 motor. it has it all

i did a Nissan Fast check and the date on it is 01/96. it also has the AR1 colour code which is the Nismo red which im sure only came out in series 2.

Someone pleasee help !! i dont want to buy it and have troube selling it later because of the 95 compliance plate.

Thank you in advance

Compliance plate is when it was imported into Aus. The build plate is from Nissan with VIN number etc.

I don't know how it was complianced in Australia before it was even built? Is the front end Series 2? The seats are different fabric?

Thats my issue. it would have taken at least a month to come into australia. before it was complied here.

series 2 front, series 2 seats. series 2 rear, series 2 engine and the colour AR1 is a series 2 colour im sure of it.

the only thing i can think of is if it was a special order series 1.5 and when it came here someone changed the front to series 2.

Well that makes more sense. I don't see why not? It would be the very first production run of the series two. I doubt you'll have any trouble selling it because of the different series anyway.

In 95 it would have been a $40,000 car, would have been very expensive to import, if you were aven able to back then.

    • Based off what you’ve said here, I think I’ve figured out a good bit of what I’ve done wrong -  So on the line going from the PCV valve to carbon canister, there’s a T joint that is pretty much right next to that lower port - I hadn’t noticed that the hose in the diagram was curved to attach onto the carb, so I was putting that line for the lower port onto the PCV line / carbon canister line instead. I’m going to have a flick through the manual again tomorrow and should hopefully find a diagram that’ll show me where that T joint should be connected to. Timing also 100% needs to be sorted out as well, should be able to tackle that tomorrow as well. Definitely feel like I should be on the right track now though. 
    • The screw is for idle (pilot circuit) mixture adjustment. Else, I'm confused ~ the diagram shows 2 carby ports, and the intake manifold port, but you're suggesting the "2nd port on the back of the carb that isn’t mentioned in the diagrams" ...yet, both carby ports are shown...que?... ...in any event, that port should be connected, but if not (like it is now), it's unlikely to cause a backfire out the carby (it would introduce false air and give you a fast/lean idle) ...sounds more like timing issues/spark plug wire routing responsible for the backfiring.    
    • That's fair, I can see both points. I get enthusiastic when I see the FS section has a new post and want to see what interesting thing someone is selling. Then I get deflated it's a bump of a 10 year old post. Ha ha
    • Couple of litres of moonshine from his southern cousins would do it...
