Pioneer 7" double din touch screen 
19"x9.5", 19"x8.5" Ruff Racing wheels
New brake pads
New rotors

 
The car runs and drives like a champ.  The last recorded RHWP/RWTQ readings from the previous owner were ~ 495/418 on 92 octane pump fuel. 
 
The car does need a bit of TLC. Specifically: 

  1. Headlights were incorrectly wired: they only work when set to bright. 
  2. Headlights are not properly sealed (typical chinese MFG). 
  3. Front bumper was damaged when previous owner attempted to pass over a speedbump. I have a replacement bumper that I will give to the buyer. 
  4. Body and interior could use some TLC.  There are a few sunspots (very hard to see, but still present), seats need new leather, a few interior trim pieces are missing, headliner is a little dirty. 
  5. Car needs to be re-tuned at buyer's location.  Car currently has a CEL on due to lower octane fuel at my location (91 vs. 92). 
  6. Horn does not work. 
  7. Oil is leaking from re-routed oil pipes (see pics). The repair is simple. The oil is NOT leaking from any other system
  8. Airbag light is flashing due to car being driven over-limit: system needs to be reset by a Nissan tech. 
  9. A/C system is not working: The A/C unit is not on the drive belt system.  I am not sure if the unit is still operable. Assume that it is not. 

Given the condition of the interior and the RWHP/RWTQ ratings, this car could easily be converted to a track car. I have a set of cheapo racing seats that I purchased for this vehicle (for just such a purpose) that I will give to the buyer if he/she is interested.

Also, you should take note that this car has straight exhaust pipes, and WILL NOT pass an emissions inspection. 

The amount of modifications that this car has undergone is substantial.  KBB for an excellent condition 350z with similar mileage is ~$9k. I have placed the BIN about $2k above that given the value of parts. I am willing to negotiate with any serious buyer. 

Note: the vehicle has a lien-holder. The amount remaining on the loan is ~$7,500.  I will work closely with the buyer and the lien-holder (my local credit union) to ensure a smooth transition. 

If you have any questions, I am more than happy to answer them. Contact me.

Nissan Xterra's fate hangs in the balance

Sat, 21 Sep 2013

The Nissan Xterra might not be long for this world, according to a report from Edmunds. The rugged SUV, which has always been a bit more of a hardcore, purpose-built vehicle than the rest of the Nissan SUV range. But it has also suffered from slowing sales, low fuel economy relative to the competition and general neglect, as Nissan has focused on other offerings in its range.
"There are plans to replace it, there are always plans, (but) I am not sure it will happen. I would say in the next six months to a year," Pierre Loing, vice president of product planning for Nissan Americas told Edmunds. Part of the problem, he added, was that the Xterra is a US-only vehicle, which makes it a hard sell in a world where automakers are increasingly depending on global cars.
Besides the economic forces working against the Xterra, it's just a vehicle that hasn't been a huge sales success of late. Customers are more conscious of fuel economy and a body-on-frame SUV that only nets 16 miles per gallon just isn't good enough; arguably why Nissan barely sold 17,000 units last year. We can hold out hope, as the Xterra remains a fun off-roader that we'd hate to see go, but unless Nissan finds a business case or some global partners, this is a vehicle that is on its last leg.

Carlos Ghosn's rise and fall — and dramatic flight — streams in August

Fri, Jul 28 2023

It turned out that Carlos Ghosn was not the perfect CEO after all.  On the run for nearly five years and living in exile in Lebanon for part of that time, Ghosn’s story — he was the former global chief of Nissan and Renault — and his subsequent dramatic escape from Japan is the stuff that Â… well, documentaries are made of. On August 25, Wanted: The Escape of Carlos Ghosn, a series in four parts, will begin streaming on Apple TV+. This new screen story (there have been others previously) hones in on his rise to fame, his multiple arrests for financial misdeeds and his made-for-Hollywood escape from Japan. Ghost had contacted a former Green Beret and was hustled out of the country by private jet in December, 2019, hidden in a musical instrument box. originally designed to hold a trombone. Ghosn has lived in Lebanon, where he has citizenship, ever since. To this point Lebanon has refused requests to extradite him. The Apple TV+ documentary will cover all of this, with never-before-seen footage and interviews. Mike Taylor, the former Green Beret who helped Ghosn escape, will tell his side of the story alongside Ghosn and others. The film has been executive produced by James Gay-Rees and Paul Martin from Formula 1: Drive to Survive. GhosnÂ’s background puts perspective on the story. He worked for 18 years with Michelin North America, where he was ultimately appointed as chief executive in 1990. In 1996, he joined Renault, and played a pivotal role in the alliance formed between Renault and Nissan. In mid-2001, he was appointed as NissanÂ’s new chief executive, and by 2005 he was running both Nissan and Renault. But in 2018 he was arrested at the Tokyo International Airport on allegations of under-reporting his salary and misusing company assets. He was subsequently arrested three more times on similar charges. He was held in and out of Japanese prison through much of 2019 before he was released on bail that April, eight months before his escape. Ghosn recently filed a lawsuit against Nissan, seeking more than $1 billion from the company. He accuses the automaker and others of defamation and fabricating evidence.

Nissan NV200 Chicago Taxi looking for a #HailYes

Fri, 07 Feb 2014

Nissan may be loaning out its small van to General Motors for its Chicago Auto Show debut, but that doesn't mean that Chevrolet is the only one with new NV200-based wares to share. On the heels of launching its Taxi Of Tomorrow for New York City, the Japanese automaker is giving America's Second City a livery of its own.
Shown here in a green and white paint scheme that "expresses a modern take on a historically popular Chicago taxi color," this NV200 Chicago Taxi is the company's less-than-subtle bid to capture some of the city's cab business, which is estimated to have about 7,000 units in service. Nissan is urging the public to generate discussion on social media and hopefully capture local taxi fleet operators' attention with a #HailYes campaign.
Beyond its unique appearance, this NV200 appears untouched, which means it's still powered by a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine backed by a version of Nissan's ubiquitous XTronic continuously variable transmission.
