the line Alarm and anti-theft system .Original GT-R key! Engine rebuilt by Dave Conway at Pro-Power Engines in
Saanichton B.C.. Crank was
micro-polished and collar for oil pump drive installed. New N1 oil pump and N1
water pump. New ACL race bearings were sent to Calico for their bearing coating
to bring crank/bearing clearances back to spec. Rotating assembly was balanced
to within 1/10 of a gram. C.P. forged pistons and Manley rods with ARP rod bolts were
installed after block was bored .005 over stock to clean all cylinders. The
head was machined for trueness, and all 24 valve guides were re-drilled for
alignment and new bronze guides were installed. The valves were lapped in. A
metal Cometic Head gasket and ARP head studs were used in assembly. Metal
Cometic intake gaskets were used. The head intake and exhaust ports were
relieved, combustion chambers polished, and the stock exhaust manifolds were
ported and relieved to match head. A new timing belt, belt idler and belt
tensioner were installed ( Nissan OEM parts). The 6 throttle bodies were all re-sealed, the injectors were
cleaned and flow tested. The main body of the intake (plenum) is Powder Coated
Blue. The engine has a new water temp sensor, new intake air temp sensor, new
throttle positioning sensor, new oil pressure sending unit, 3 new accessory
belts, and a new 3” aluminum radiator. Royal purple engine oil and a K&N filter, fresh
anti-freeze both done recently. ALL the other gear oils are Red-line synthetic,
and recently changed. 2 Greedy/Trust Airlinx muffin type air-filters are used.
The clutch was just replaced with an A.C.T. Racing clutch, thro-out and pilot bearings,
flywheel was resurfaced and new dowels were installed. Fresh NGK Copper plugs
recently installed. This engine easily and quickly revs to 8,200 RPM without
skipping a beat. The factory boost restrictor was removed by a previous owner,
but I’ve installed a new Vibrant Manual Boost Controller. This will increase
the boost from the stock7 PSI to a SAFE 12.5 – 13 PSI. The turbos were
thoroughly examined for wear and shaft end-play during engine rebuild. They are
the stock turbos with the ceramic vanes, NOT safe to run more than 13PSI. New
braided re-enforced stainless steel water cooling lines for the turbos were
added. I have installed a switch which will turn off the front wheel drive and
ABS, for your pre-launch burnouts. The brake pads were replaced with Hawk Street Performance
Pads, and the rotors were turned. It has an HKS Super Dragger Stainless Steel
Cat-Back exhaust. The Catalytic converter is still in place. There is 90% tread
life on the 4 Michelin Pilot Exalto AS 225/50/R16 tires.The rims are the
factory GT-R ultra-light wheels. There are front and rear IMPUL strut tower
bars (adjustable). Last summer, a 4 wheel alignment was done. It has an Optima
Red-Top battery with Gold battery terminals. There is an E-Brake Drift Button
installed, but the stock E-Brake handle comes with it. The Coil-pack cover is
also included, and is in excellent condition, but the coils last longer without
the heat being trapped in by the cover. The only body mod is the very rare TOMEI rear tail light
covers. The car also has the rare Skyline floor mats, front rear, and rear
hump. The only flaw in the whole interior is the exit side of the driver seat
side bolster, very typical due to the height of the side bolsters in these
cars. It has a Sony Explode CD player with XFINITY speakers. The exterior paint is average for a 24 year old car. There
is a small dent in the hood, which is aluminum, 2 very small dings in the right
side, 2 blemishes on the rear rubber bumper, and the only sign of rust on the
entire car is showing as blistering the paint in the left rear wheel-well of
the quarter panel. I won’t fix it as I’m not trying to hide anything. The
Speedo has been replaced, as indicated by the decal in the door jamb on the
driver’s side. This was used in calculating the vehicle’s actual mileage when
converting the Kilometers to Miles. The car will easily go faster than the
speedo’s capable of displaying. The car comes with a binder from the original Japanese
owner, and includes the full service history. It was imported from Japan in
2004, and has had 3 owners since. I will include a CD Rom that has a complete
Nissan Owners Service and Repair Manual for the GT-R, in English. I have a
folder with receipts for all of the
parts I’ve put into the car. http://s1311.photobucket.com/user/cameraman26/library/?view=recent&page=1 |

Here's how to follow this weekend's 24 Hours of Le Mans
Thu, Jun 11 2015In the pantheon of motorsports, the 24 Hours of Le Mans stands as one of the great endurance challenges to man and machine. This year's event in France already looks to be one for the ages with Porsche setting record-breaking times in practice and the competition debut of Nissan's front-engine, hybrid racer. Thankfully, there's a massive list of ways to follow this automotive attraction. Reilly Brennan, the Executive Director of the Revs Automotive Research Program at Stanford University, and a friend of Autoblog, has once again assembled a helpful couch-kit to organize many of the options. Unfortunately, the old-school way of just turning on the television might be the most frustrating way to watch Le Mans this year. Fox Sports 1 and 2 are carrying about half the race, but the coverage bounces between them seemingly at random. The broadcast begins on Fox Sports 2 at 8:30 AM Eastern ahead of the 9:00 AM start and lasts there until 12:00 PM. Things don't pick up again until 7:00 PM Eastern on Fox Sports 1 for an hour, and the channels swap back and forth more from there. The Fox Sports Go streaming app offers more, but even it stops showing the race a few times. Thankfully, streaming Le Mans is easy. If you can't dedicate 24-hours on the couch, Radio Le Mans lets you listen to audio commentary anywhere with some of the best announcers in the biz. The Automobile Club de l'Ouest, the governing body for the race, also offers an official video stream in an app for $9.99. For a really low-tech solution, the official Twitter is another choice. Brennan is keeping his list updated with coverage changes. You can also check out and download the spotter's guide (from Nissan) in the gallery above. Enjoy this year's race. If you miss anything, don't worry; expect a full report from Autoblog. In fact, editor-in-chief Mike Austin is attending Le Mans this year, so follow him on Twitter for on-the-fly impressions.

2013 Nissan Juke Nismo
Tue, 07 May 2013Scratching All The Right Itches
Say what you will about the unconventional aesthetics that Nissan employed on the company's Juke. I love the thing. The universe has no shortage of ambiguously styled CUVs, and while I can't exactly say I would have turned to the amphibian world for design inspiration had it been me with the charcoal in my hand, I can certainly appreciate the fact that the Juke isn't just another box-on-box design.
And then there's that engine. The turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder under the hood is one of the best powerplants in the company's toy box, offering plenty of low-range torque and comical levels of thrust. Hell, it even makes the optional continuously variable transmission tolerable. Praise be to the deities of forced induction. But something has always been missing from the mix. From the first moment I got my hands on the Juke, I couldn't help but think how much better the machine would be if Nissan ditched an inch or two of ground clearance and sharpened up its suspension. Think more "hot hatch" and less "Kermit goes to Kroger."
Nissan exec Andy Palmer derides Toyobaru coupes as 'midlife crisis' cars
Mon, 28 Oct 2013Andy Palmer, Nissan's executive vice president, does not like the Scion FR-S or Subaru BRZ. To us, that's like saying you enjoy barbecuing puppies, but we'll let him slide, because his statements about the Toyobaru twins are much, much more than just idle trash talk.
Speaking to Motor Trend's Nate Martinez, Palmer said, "Do we have any competitors [in the small, rear-drive coupe segment]? Are you talking about the Subaru [BRZ]? It was a car designed for a 50-year-old. It's for a midlife crisis. That's not what we do." Strong words, but what followed was even better.
"Are you coming to the Tokyo Motor Show? You'll see the answer to the midlife crisis. Except it won't be for the midlife crisis." So, if you were wondering whether Nissan is working on a competitor to the Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ, the answer seems to be a resounding "yes."
