Rb26dett Swapped 300zx Twin Turbo Slicktop on 2040-cars
Tuckerton, New Jersey, United States
This vehicle was custom built, with an RB26 Engine Swap from the famed Nissan Skyline GTR. The engine originally came from a 1996 R33 GTR, so it has the extended crank to oil pump engagement resolving the issues that plagues early GTRs. The car has been tastefully modded, with all aspects of the vehicle upgraded from engine, drivetrain, suspension, brakes, etc. Here is a comprehensive list of mods:
Engine: RB26DETT from R33 GTR

Brake Master Cylinder Brace Interior: Corbeau A4 Wide Drivers Seat (Reclining) Alpine CD Receiver and Speakers Autometer Sport-Comp 2 Gauges (Oil Pressure, Oil Temp, Coolant Temp, Boost) Z1 Gauge Rings AMS (Illinois not Canada) Shift Knob Exterior: Stillen Front Lip Aerocatch Hood Pins 3M 1080 Vinyl Wrap in Satin White Pearl (Original Color Black, two pictures included to show original color) Other: Amsoil 10W-40 Motor Oil Amsoil MT-90 Gear Oil in Trans Amsoil 75W-90 in Differential ATE Blue Brake Fluid and Clutch Fluid The Good: This car runs excellent, is an absolute pleasure to drive, turns heads everywhere it goes, and does everything well... acceleration, handling, braking. The combination of the Porsche brakes with the 295 front tires results in amazing stopping power. The lightly modded RB26 sounds amazing, revs with ease, and makes enough power to trap 123MPH in the 1/4 mile in a full weight Z. The car has always been garage kept and has been driven very little... only 3k miles since built 2 years ago. The entire car was built with comprehensive performance in mind, this car does everything well. Also, the chassis only has 36k miles on it!!! Yes, a true 36k! The car was originally owned by a Marine who gave his life in the first desert storm. The car sat in his parents garage for many years until being sold to a young man who got in over his head with a V8 swap. I purchased the car unfinished and abandoned the V8 for an RB26. The Bad: Not Much... the car had fading clearcoat, which is why it was wrapped. 3M 1080 is the cream of the crop in wraps, is very durable, and removes with ease leaving no residue if you decide to paint the car. There are a fair amount of small dings around the car, with only one dent in the drivers front fender. Lastly, the custom oil pan leaks a small amount. It is never enough to see the oil level go down, but it will leave 2 or three small drips in the driveway/garage. To resolve this, a summit engine diaper was installed. This is a requirement in many racing circles anyway, but in the interest of full disclosure I am leaving no stone unturned. Why am I selling? That is both easy and difficult. There are two major reasons. 1: I do not get to enjoy the car enough. With a very bust family and work schedule, there is little time for fun with this car. 2: We are looking to downsize and this means some toys must go. If I had it my way, I would never sell this car, but sometimes sacrifices need to be made. If anyone is interested in speaking with me directly about this car, send me a message and I will provide my phone number. I built this car, and as such I can tell you every detail about it. This is a NO RESERVE Auction. high bidder wins this car. NO INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS!!! Cash sale or bank to bank wire transfers ONLY. Do not bid if you do not have the money! I am NOT interested in trades!! I am NOT interested in waiting for you to get financing!! Deposit due immediately upon end of auction with full payment to be made within two weeks. I CAN DELIVER THIS CAR ANYWHERE in the continental US. I have a truck and a fully encloded car trailer and will deliver the car anywhere for a fee. |

Did Amazon just deliver a car in a giant box?
Tue, 07 Jan 2014Back in September, reports started rolling in that Amazon would get into the auto sales business after a promo for the Nissan Versa Note appeared on the online retailer's page. That link didn't actually sell a car, but instead acted as a referral service for potential customers, linking them up with dealers. A recent image that's been floating around on Reddit and that was picked up by The Huffington Post, though, has us wondering if Amazon has dove into the actual business of selling cars, rather than just referring people to dealers.
The image, above, shows an enormous Amazon box on the back of a flatbed tow truck. According to HuffPo, this could be one of the cars sold through the earlier promotion for the Versa Note (which was sweetened with the addition a $1,000 Amazon gift card). Apparently, three of the Versas purchased would arrive in such a fashion. Then again, this could all be nothing more than an elaborate publicity stunt. Amazon is, after all, the company has been touting drone delivery of its goods.
What do you think is in the box? Let us know down in Comments. Bonus points for those that come up with an idea as absurd as the bulk order of banana slicers HuffPo mentioned.
Watch Nissan prank unsuspecting test drivers with GT Academy
Mon, 03 Nov 2014Nissan's reality show/motorsports program, GT Academy, is set to return to Spike TV for its fourth season on Friday, and in anticipation, the Nismo team has issued a new video that gives some of its fans a taste of the racing lifestyle.
It all starts innocently enough, with fans test-driving a 2015 Nissan 370Z Nismo, only to have a sudden stop quickly transforms things into something a bit more exuberant and special. We won't spoil the details, so take a look at the video for yourself, and then head into Comments and let us know what you think.
GT Academy will air on Spike TV, Friday nights at 11:30 PM Eastern.
Nissan could have bought a stake in Aston Martin as early as 2012
Mon, 08 Sep 2014Aston Martin has a very interesting future ahead of it. While the British brand appeared to be struggling with aging tech for a while, fresh investment from Daimler may have shown a light toward the future with the brand getting engines and electronics from them. Also, former Renault-Nissan top exec Andy Palmer has jumped ship from the French/Japanese automaker to become CEO of the much smaller sports car company. Interestingly, though, new reports from unnamed Nissan sources have indicated that Palmer has been pushing to work with AM for years.
Three unnamed company insiders told Reuters that Palmer made attempts to convince Renault-Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn in 2012 and 2013 to invest in Aston Martin, but his proposals were shot down both times for unspecified reasons, according to Automotive News. "We looked carefully at the proposal but we passed on it," said one of the sources.
You can easily see why Palmer was eying Aston Martin even back in 2012. It's no secret that the British sports car mavens were in need of extra funding, well before the Daimler investment. Building vehicles these days is only getting more expensive with stronger safety and emissions requirements. Just look at the brand's desperate hope to get a side-impact crash exemption to keep selling its models in the US as an example.
