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.

Nissan Altima and Sentra to get Murano-inspired design redo

Tue, 07 Oct 2014

The Nissan Altima and Sentra sedans are both very competent, economical, comfortable and well-equipped ways of getting from A to B. They're also both decidedly boring to look at, which is not a good trait in their increasingly style-driven segments.
To rectify this, Nissan is planning design overhauls for its mainstream, with the Sentra adopting the sportier, Euro-style looks of the Pulsar, according to The Car Connection. While that (sadly) won't mean the five-door Pulsar will come to the US market, fitting the European stylings to the Sentra should go a long way towards broadening the car's appeal.
That parcel of information comes from Nissan design boss Shiro Nakamura, who spoke to The Car Connection at last week's Paris Motor Show.

Skyline-powered Nissan Patrol shows Juke-R how it's done

Mon, 21 Oct 2013

If you had told us a few years ago that people would be shoehorning GT-R engines into Nissan SUVs, we'd have told you you were nuts. But that was before the Juke-R came along. And before the Qashqai-R project followed a similar formula. Well, now there's a third example.
We don't know who made it or who it belongs to, but some our-kind-of-nuts character has shoehorned the 2.5-liter turbocharged inline-six from a Skyline GT-R into a fourth-gen Nissan Patrol sport-ute. And from the sound of it, we gather the engine has also been heavily tuned beyond its 215-horsepower stock specification.
What's even better is that this Patrol-R isn't alone. Check out the second video below and you'll see a whole club of Patrol owners who've shoehorned in Nissan RB engines like the ones that powered generations of Skyline GT-Rs.

Nissan adds 500 jobs in Mississippi for Murano production [w/video]

Fri, 30 May 2014

Nissan is bolstering its workforce at its Canton, MS factory, adding 500 workers for this fall's production kickoff of the heavily redesigned Murano crossover.
"The addition of Murano to our portfolio, coupled with the continued growth and success of the Canton plant, will move us even closer to our goal to build more than 85 percent of the vehicles we sell in the US right here in North America," said senior vice president of manufacturing, supply chain management and purchasing for Nissan's North American ops, John Martin.
The Murano will eventually be exported to over 100 markets and will be built alongside the current Xterra, Frontier, Titan and Armada. The addition of 500 jobs to the Canton facility elevates its total workforce past 6,000 people.
