Beautiful glossy paint work on that car :thumbs

Saw your signature on that forum and the cars you've had, T11 crickey doubt there will be any of those left on the road. Used to love my p10 Primera but px'd it towards my first Terrano.

Thanks. The paint on the Maxima is all original. I've just worked hard on it. When you say T11, did you mean my old T12's, or K11 or P11? lol. There are so few T12 Stanzas around now, although I have the feelers out to pick one up in the next couple of months.

My eye for detail never gives me a break.

Front wiper arms now black again...



and these two bits of messy sticky residue on the front screen...

Small touches that make all the difference mate :thumb2

Thanks mate.

T11 was the Stanza, a T12 is Japanese built T72 Bluebird and the T72 was built in Sunderland. Very few T12 Bluebirds ever sold on the UK market but they were far better build quality than the UK built version.

Your hard work has certainly paid off with the Max paintwork. Never had anything to do with this clay polish stuff but the results look super.

Remember going on a drive n skive to see the new maxima when it came out all those years ago. The bloke from nissan balanced a 50pence piece on the top of the engine to prove how smooth it was. Was a great car was that.

Those were the days working for a nissan dealer and I turned up at 8:30 in the morning 1st of August in my brand new J reg Astra, they tried to fire me for that but as I was happy to tell them I did try and buy a couple of cars from them but they didn't come up with a good deal. Pity really as they had leant me a Bluebird in super condition for a weekend but wouldn't sell it to me cheap, worth far more commission to retail it.

The 50p balancing act got me interested, and so I tried it on Sunday. I'll upload a video later!

My money is on the 50p falling off somewhere it shouldn't have and he's now doing an engine rebuild :doh :lol :lol :lol

I wouldn't put much more than, say, 50p on that!

Not sure if the link will work as I'm on my phone.

Just goes to show how smooth the 3 litre V6 is!

Talk to me about the round button/switch with the EML style design on it. What's it for?

On mine, it effectively a hand throttle to lifts the revs, which means it warms up a bit quicker, but is not a Choke, so you can use it any time you want to raise the revs, like when using a winch...

Thanks for the info

Due to a change of plan, this WD21 will be for sale soon.

I'd rather it goes to someone on here, so you guys will get first dibs.

 

[emjaybee]

Sorry to hear that bloke.

Good luck with the sale. Stick around on the forum though.
