Up for auction is my 300zx Twin Turbo. Car is in great condition mechanically, needs a little bit of cosmetic work. 

Car has had the following work done (fully documented with receipts): 

2014: 
- Brake fluid flush
- AC system repair (had custom compressor fan installed at AAA mechanic Aguirre Auto as no one manufactures the OEM units)

2013: 
- Replaced Battery (car had been sitting)
- Performed throttle body coolant bypass (Intake manifold cleaned, new intake manifold gasket)
- Replaced passenger side valve cover gasket
- Fuel filter replaced
- Fuel system cleaned
- Diagnosed check engine light to be due to rich condition (likely due to either bad o2 sensors, fuel delivery or aftermarket exhaust)

2012 (previous owner): 
- Replaced Battery
Work done at Jack Key Nissan (Las Cruces, NM): 
- Replaced Alternator
- Replaced all six injectors with new gaskets
- Replaced EGR gaskets
- Misc. Vacuum tubes replaced
- Knock sensor replaced

2007 (previous owner): 
- New radiator

2006 (previous owner): 
- Replaced head light switch & fixed fuse block

For the bad: 
- Car has been sitting for several months. Starts up right away, but idles a bit rough until warm. Driven the car on 100+ mile daily commutes to work here and there, but the car REALLY needs to be driven consistently to get her back on her feet. 
- Car has a HICAS leak (not surprising if you've owned one before)
- Check Engine Light is on (read description).   
- Needs some minor bodywork (see pics).
- Could use shocks/springs. 
- Could use tires. 

Car has been kept as close to OEM as possible. The only exceptions are the aftermarket stereo (nothing fancy; in fact the OEM radio is probably better at this point) and the intake system (previous owner installed an intake kit). 

Price reflects the need for some tune-up work, and potential body work. KBB rough private party is ~$5,900.  Priced $5,500 as I need her gone. 

Any questions, drop me a line.

Nissan recalling 841k vehicles overseas for steering wheel trouble

Sat, 25 May 2013

A possible issue with a steering wheel bolt in the Nissan Micra (shown) and Cube from the 2002 to 2006 model years has Nissan recalling roughly 841,000 units on four continents, as well as Oceania and the Middle East. On the affected cars, the bolt may not have been tightened properly, which could lead to a loss of steering in a worst-case scenario. According to Reuters, there haven't been any reports of accidents or injuries due to the fault, however.
The Micras affected were built in the UK and Japan, the Cubes in Japan. Nissan has yet to say when the recall will begin, but when it does, owners can take their cars to dealers for repairs; the bolt with either be tightened or, if necessary, a new steering wheel installed.

World's Strongest Man champion pulls a dozen Nissan Note hatchbacks to set record

Fri, 06 Dec 2013

On December 1, Zydrunas Savickas, a five-time World's Strongest Man champion, pulled 12 Nissan Notes (the equivalent to our Versa Note) weighing 28,530 pounds over 16.4 feet in 32.9 seconds. The feat, performed in Lithuania at the end of the country's Car of the Year test camp, was enough to secure him the Guinness world record for "Most Cars Pulled By One Man."
"Once I got into my stride pulling the 12 Nissan Notes, [it] was fine," Savickas said after the pull. "Obviously, a big thank you to Nissan for helping me set the record and making it all happen."
"We at Nissan like setting records and are always aiming high," said Taina Erkkilä, Communication Director of Nissan Nordic Europe. "Today we are delighted to have been able to help Zydrunas set another world record and see so many people turn out to support him."

2014 Nissan Pathfinder Hybrid arrives with supercharged engine, 26 mpg combined

Wed, 27 Mar 2013

Nissan just launched the fully redesigned Pathfinder for the 2013 model year, and now, there's a fuel-sipping hybrid version making its debut here at the New York Auto Show. The 2014 Pathfinder Hybrid packs all of the same features found in the standard crossover, but offers slightly better fuel economy and an improved cruising range, to boot.
The new hybrid is powered by a 2.5-liter supercharged engine (we're assuming it's a four-cylinder, though Nissan hasn't specified) coupled with a lithium-ion battery and 15-kilowatt electric motor, capable of producing 250 horsepower and 243 pound-feet of torque - 10 less horsepower but three more pound-feet than the standard V6 Pathfinder. Nissan says the hybrid crossover will be rated at 25/27 miles per gallon (city/highway), with a 26-mpg combined rating. This means that on a full tank, the cruising range of the Pathfinder Hybrid is a cool 526 miles.
What's cool about the hybrid packaging is that Nissan has managed not to have it interfere with any of the interior functionality - the Pathfinder Hybrid still packs just as much cargo and passenger space as its naturally aspirated sibling. Official pricing has not been announced, but Nissan expects the hybrid to command an additional $3,000 over the standard model.
