AliveBoy Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 S-tune badge, if it's real it's worth a lot of money. The wonkyness of it suggests it's not though... along with the floor mats and seat covers. Oh and the weird glass man keyring 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AliveBoy Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Edit: just noticed the Nismo dials, it might be genuine, real good find if so! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Bradders- Posted April 22, 2014 Author Share Posted April 22, 2014 (edited) i thought that lol, but as you said i saw the dials and thought hmmm... Its got nismo sides on it but what else determines a nismo? its got ST on the log book if that means anything?

AliveBoy Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 This is from Wiki: The S-Tune GT was released by NISMO to celebrate its success in motorsport, particularly in the Super GT series. The S-Tune GT featured revised long nose bodywork as in the Type-E, a modified version of the VQ35DE engine called the S1 with more power (300 PS / 221 kW / 296 hp) and higher redline (7200 rpm), as well as a sportier NISMO suspension. 20 were produced each month in Japan. Although Nissan did not officially sell S-Tune in UK, Nissan Motor (GB) Ltd. imported 1 S-Tune GT to UK So we can tell that if it's a UK car, it's a fake. You're looking for the suspension, exhaust, engine bay, genuine nismo bumpers, which will have a nismo logo in the resin of the bumper itself if you can see down from the engine bay. Dials aren't hard to swap out so aren't conclusive. I'd say the log book is good as you probably wouldn't re register a fake. Nismo alloys end up on everything, so aren't conclusive either. If you do buy it, chuck those floor mats please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grundy Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 If you've found it bud, the traders have already seen it a week before it was put up. Is it just me, is that the light controls on the right hand side? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it just me, is that the light controls on the right hand side? Yep, jap import. It's the correct way for a RHD car, we just import so many cars we've got used to it the other way. You can change gear, steer AND indicate at the same time with them that way round, perfect for roundabouts! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GIXXERUK Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Is that extra chrome/silver trim around the air vents? They were an optional extra like the Ali door entry guards, available for uk models aswell A few people bought them and with the heat from the vent... They fell off 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhackyWill Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 What are those seat covers..!! :scare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleR Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 I seem to remember one if these popping up a while back. I think it was silver or gunmetal and the photos were taken with quite a bit of grass in the background, as if it was from a small dealer working from his rural house? It'll be 100% an import if it's an S-Tune, Japan only unfortunately, but if it's the one I'm thinking of, the price is quite good for one of probably 2 or 3 in the country. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Bradders- Posted April 22, 2014 Author Share Posted April 22, 2014 Its only 160 miles away haha, going to go look at it next week if i can, unfortunately im away this weekend lol.
