creative Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 Its with a heavy heart it is now time to sell my skyline for my impending move to Australia! I have only owned this car for a short space of time and due to job problems its been sat in the garage since feb! I purchased it in Oct last year so only got to drive it for 4 months. It was first registered in the uk on the 8 march 08 and was registered to the chap that imported it himself. He didn't use the car and it was sat until I snapped it up. It is currently sorned but has mot until Nov this year. I gave it a full service etc when I purchased it and it has had new rubber on all 4 corners aswell as new brakes (discs and pads) all round at the same time. Engine wise it is standard except for a hks BOV and an apexi panel filter. It also has an hks super dragger exhaust on aswell. It even has the limiter still on so its never been over the 112mph barrier! Mileage and speedo still read in KPH as I like the standard feeling so never changed it. but reads 131000km. It has an aftermarket (comtech) turbo timer fitted. Afaik it also allows for remote start etc but I don't have the remote for it. Been looking for one to come up on yahooJP and ebay but no luck as yet so unsure if that side is working or not. no reason it shouldn't though. Bodywork wise its in brilliant condition. The paint code is AN0 and hasnt faded to much. There are a few marks but no dents etc. I have since found a small rust bubble on one of the rear arches but it isn't showing much just yet. see pic: I have also removed the rear lights and resealed the entire boot and light section as it had a few leaks into the boot... as all skylines seem to do! I have also removed the rear wiper. It has a carbon bonnet that has an excellent fit but has faded and I haven't had time to try and restore its shine back yet... but may get chance before it sells. Wheels are AVS model 7's in 17 inch fitment. They are in good condition with a few minor kerbings but these were done before I got the car. Suspension is made up of an unknown jap brand and they are full adjustable coilovers. Ride is set to hard at the moment as thats how I prefer the handling. It could do with being raised a tiny bit on the front as I do get a small amount of rubbing on full lock but otherwise its fine. interior comprises of being totally standard except for a recaro tilt and slide drivers seat, white dash and blue led light conversion. A Nardia steering wheel and aftermarket gear knob are also fitted. Fitted with JBL speakers all round in the standard holes. Also fitted with genuine skyline mats front and rear. This pic shows the car at normal running temps etc to show good oil pressure and temps etc... Overall the car is in brilliant condition. no rattles or knocks or smoke from the engine. It drives spot on! The only negative point I have found is with the gearbox. It has a really high biting point but I suspect that just needs adjusting which I will be looking at the next time I am at the car. I don't think its the clutch as it doesn't slip when under strain etc. the car just needs insuring, taxing and your good to go! I think I have covered everything but feel free to ask any questions or any other pictures. Pricewise Im only looking at what it owes me which is £3000 ono. I am willing to negotiate on price a bit but no silly offers please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
