i didnt say it was worth buying. not for that price anyway.

you might have missed the point, i was saying that he didnt do the mods himself. the guy that he bought it off did them, and ripped him off in my opinion. i havent seen the car in a long time, and last time i spoke to him, he said his car was in the spray shop.

i know the car has the hardware, so yes it needs a good tune. but i also know the original owner of the car, and he didnt treat it kindly either.

no need to rush into it, just make sure u check everything out first...

i agree the car does need a lil TLC, but i do not doubt the potential of it...

just look at what it has...

93 model 2001 SR20vct S15J engine aprox 20,000klm on engine
mics firmic
3in turbo back zorst
t28/t3 bb turbo will handel up to 1.4 bar boost
apexi twin chamber blow off valve + spare blitz super sound with kit
hks super flo air filter
s14 rocker cover
550hp fuel pump
high flowed S15J injectors
ltmtx8 ecu with handset
sti wrx seats
kyb suspension
cusco geardox
cusco custom 2.5way lsd (semi lock diff) "WARNING" serious sideways action when throttle is applied
adan avs model 6 white rims
cwest gt wing
original bomex side skirts and rear pods
ifra leather steering wheel
ns electronic boost gauge
hks type 1 turbo timer
kenwood head unit with 10 stack cd clarion 6*9 clarion amp 10" sub in custom box
custom tiger gold paint
dyno at 200rwhp by UE. dyno at 10psi running mega rich
all work done by croydon auto sport

uni group will tune for less than $200, as they've done it before....

croydon have said it wont take too much to get running at 190ish-rwkw.....

i think bodywise, it just needs new splash guards, some work on the front quarter pannels and adjustment of the front bar.....

i wouldnt mind his lsd and gear box....

it certainly has the gear, u just need to get the right price....

Give it a miss and wait patiently for a perfect car to come up, you'll be much happier after you buy it and you've had it for awhile.

I went to look at this car with my mate probably 2 months ago. This guy isnt very talkative. The engine bay was abit dirty, body seem like it need some tlc, roll cage was remove left two holes in the rear.

Overall, the owner wouldnt even knock a couple of hundred bucks off.
My mate said what was the best you can do
and he said 16k
My mate said i wouldnt pay 16k for this
and he said cya later and walked of in a childish manner

very rude must i add.

:D keep the replies rolling guys..
yeh anyway i didnt end up buying from the guy
hes lacking the nissan spirit...very illmannered i must say
promised me 15k i said ok and arranged to have it looked at in stratty at 6pm
and then he calls me up at 6 and said i sms'ed him saying some bullshit about i got my dad's car and can meet him at epping...well i said can u meet me at stratty he said no...
and he seems like he only wants to deal at night after 10pm
and he wants it all in CASH

i mean to me i wouldnt bring 15k cash out at 10pm to see a car he wouldnt let me test drive..

so i ditched the guy on that night and went to another guy who sold me his 91 s13 with few mods for $10,800 very nice guy and he was able to give me all the engineers papers and stuff...

considering it was raining and the water lvl in waterloo was fuked
the front bar was half chopped from a speed up :(

well anyways...just wanna say thanks to FREESTYLER~

you gave me some great advice mate and that really helped me pick a better car for myself and i know i wont regret buying my silvie :)

btw any luck on getting the 180 yet?
