Helping a friend sell a 1991 Nissan Skyline GTS-T R32 Type M.  This is arguably one of the most sought after exotic Japanese supercars to be offered for sale in the US.  EBay does not have a category for this car, so I placed it in the closest one available.  It is basically a stock version with the following mods:

Aftermarket parts that came with it from Japan:
  • Blow-off valve HKS SQV(Sequential Valve) Note, this is not the 'modern' SSQV which is a very high pitched and loud sound, this has a much quieter, natural, but still noticeable blow-off sound.
  • JVC Amp and Subwoofer combo under driver's seat.
  • Datasystem ATS234 Turbo timer.
  • In-dash TV with analog tuner
  • Sony cd-player and radio with removable front cover.
Aftermarket parts installed by previous owner:
  • AEM UEGO Wideband Air Fuel ratio gauge
  • Apexi SAFC (original SAFC, not SAFC 2 or Neo, currently hooked up for read-only, doesn't affect fuel maps)
Aftermarket parts installed by current owner:
  • 3A Racing Air Intake Filter
  • Glowshift PSI Boost gauge

Mechanically, absolutely everything works on the car. 2 warning lights seen in the pics indicate a parking brake and a door open. Car has excellent compression, does not leak any fluids, no strange or unusual noises, and does not smoke.  Primary tach is in-op, however the RPM's are correctly regsitered on the Apexi airflow converter. Oil changes are done using the best and most advanced synthetic oil on the market, Royal Purple. Odometer reads in KM, but the conversion to miles is X .62 .  

Cosmetic there are just a couple items to point out.  Along the left side it appears the car brushed up against a white object (see pics below).  This blemish is found just above the front wheel, just ahead of the rear wheel and a bit by the back bumper.  It's hard to see from the pics taken 10ft out, but closeups will indicate this.  Also, there is some light fading around the fuel cap that is also seen in the pics.  The paint is original and for some buyers add value, so I'll leave it up to the new owner on fixing or just re painting with the buyer's choice of color. Car was originally in southern Japan (salt free) and once delivered to North America, garaged during winters.  I believe these high resolution pictures to be quite accurate in representing the car and are consistent with the age and mileage of this car.

This Skyline is a grey market vehicle, meaning it was never intended to be driven in the United States.  The buyer will receive a clear PA title.  Although a title and registration can be obtained in most states, this car does not meet Federal Emissions or Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) and is therefore recommended for export or off-road/track use only.   VIN # is HCR32258012

It is rather unlikely the car will be financed through traditional lending sources.  If seeking a car loan, or any loan for that matter, please ensure you are approved prior to bidding.  I will not accept finance problems as a way to back out of the winning bid.  

The car is currently located in metro- Detoit, MI, but will be shipped via truck to Carlisle, PA towards the end of auction.  Therefore, the car will be available for inspection in Carlisle.  Please contact me for exact dates.  Although titled, the car is not registered for US roads, so the winning bidder will need to keep that in mind when purchasing the car.  I'm not excited about delivering the car, but can do so via private truck/trailer if need be.  If you are thinking of having the car delivered, please contact me prior to bidding to discuss the details.  As the seller will not be the one delivering the car, it will need to be paid in full prior to leaving.  Closest airport to fly into is MDT and will provide free airport transportation to car.  Tickets are fairly cheap on priceline, and given the age of the vehicle, would recommend all interested bidders in coming out to have a look.

Payment terms: 1/2 of purchase price due within 3 days of the close of auction with the balance due within 14 days or at time of pick up.  Will accept bank to bank wire or cash (in person of course) only.  Paypal is required in order to bid but not accepted as a form of payment.  

eBay messages also come straight to my Smart phone, 
so I can respond very quickly.

Nissan Leaf EVs slip through French village to make a quiet point

Thu, May 1 2014

Bjork's 1995 freak-out hit It's Oh So Quiet may have reflected the singer's oddball Icelandic sensibilities, but Nissan is making the concept of relative silence a French thing. The Japanese automaker recently promoted its all-electric Leaf by staging a mini-rally through what it called "one of the quietest villages in Europe." And with the exception of a couple damaged trash bins and a destroyed rear-view mirror from an old-school archway, the race kept the drivers wide awake but everyone in the Southern French village in Provence Alpes Cote d'Azur sleeping. Nissan sent four vehicles on a five-kilometer jaunt through the village in the wee morning hours. Screeching tires and a couple booms notwithstanding, the company said everyone in town stayed snoozing. There was a broader purpose to this exercise, of course, which Nissan blatantly admits was a stunt. Nissan was helping celebrate 19th Annual International Noise Awareness Day (INAD), which took place on Wednesday and highlighted the emotional and health issues as well as high blood pressure and insomnia caused by excessive exposure to noise. Check out Nissan's press release below, where you'll also find the video. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. NISSAN LEAF CELEBRATES INTERNATIONAL NOISE AWARENESS DAY WITH A NIGHTTIME "SILENT RIDE" ROLLE, Switzerland – To mark the 19th annual International Noise Awareness Day (INAD), Nissan has taken to the streets of one of Europe's quietest villages during the middle of the night with a silent "ride" of its 100 percent electric Nissan LEAF. The activity, complete with a start and finish line in Provence Alpes Cote d'Azur, was designed to demonstrate the noise reduction levels of the Zero Emissions car compared to traditional combustion engines. The World Health Organization (WHO) states at least 13.5 percent of Europeans are exposed to road traffic noise at levels exceeding 55 dB, which is considered detrimental to human health*. The medical effects of noise levels include insomnia (50dB), obesity (50dB), psychic disorders (60dB) and reduction in life expectancy (50dB)*. As a result, Nissan has filmed a 'silent ride' to help support INAD in raising awareness about noise pollution levels across Europe.

Ghosn: Low oil prices won't hurt EVs much

Mon, Jan 26 2015

Carlos Ghosn might be the most unflappable automotive CEO around. Despite lower gas prices and signs that these prices do impact green vehicle sales, the CEO of the Renault-Nissan Alliance was at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland this weekend saying that people will continue to buy electric vehicles. "I don't think it is going to be slowing down," he said. "The people who are buying mainly for economic reasons may be deterred from it, but you have plenty of consumers buying EV for other reasons. On top of this, even though the price of oil is unpredictable – nobody has predicted last year that we would be at this level of oil price today and nobody knows where oil price will be next year or two years down the road – but what is predictable is that the regulation on emissions is going to get tougher in the various markets where we are present. So, our EV strategy is here not only to face too much dependence on oil or the cost of oil, but also to allow us to meet the very stringent regulations on emissions that are happening and will be happening in the future. So I can bet you that more and more car makers are coming to EVs and they're going to continue to build and sell EVs, even though the price of oil is coming down."

Recharge Wrap-up: Eigg's renewable energy grid, Wulin City Car EV looks like i3

Fri, Sep 12 2014

Scotland's Isle of Eigg's electrical grid relies solely on wind, hydro and solar power. It's the first grid of its kind after switching to renewable energy from noisy, unreliable diesel generators. Scotland's renewable resources are fodder for supporters of independence form the UK, and Eigg is a perfect example of that potential. Besides being a responsible community, it also seems like a lovely place to visit. Read more at Reuters. London Mayor Boris Johnson is calling for incentives for diesel vehicle scrapping. The goal is to improve London's air quality, encourage the purchase of clean vehicles and offset the inconvenience of charging diesel cars to enter the city's proposed Ultra Low Emissions Zone. Read more at Green Car Congress or in the press release below. BMW, Nissan, Renault and Volkswagen are teaming up to create a better EV charging infrastructure in the UK and Ireland. As part of the Trans-European Transport Network (T-ENT) program, the group aims to create extended EV-friendly roadways with the UK Rapid Charge Network, connecting major cities on the islands. Plans for the network include 70 rapid chargers along 684 miles of road. The four manufacturers also want to extend the project to mainland Europe to encourage the adoption of EVs. Read more at Hybrid Cars. Wuling is working on an EV, called City Car, which liberally takes visual cues from the BMW i3. The City Car EV concept is slated to make its debut in November at the Guangzhou Auto Show, while a production version could make its way onto Chinese roads next year. We might have to wait until the debut to know what powers the City Car, as those details haven't been released yet. General Motors is a 43-percent stakeholder in Wuling.

Now customers will be able to use either app to pay in any of the city's 20,000 green and yellow taxis. There's no need for separate apps for separate cabs, and no need for drivers to install any new equipment. The groups behind the apps hope to expand this functionality to other cities across the country. Read more in the press release below.
