Factory Nissan Sunny B11 Chassis, E15ET turbo "Le Prix&
Heya Guys,
I have a couple of previous cars on the website, under the name "charles" a blue Langley and a black Milano, (both N12's)
However I now have a B11 Sunny Le Prix Turbo, but it shares the same mechanicals as the N12 Turbos.
There were 3 models of this car, theres a Hatchback, Sedan, and a longer Liftback model. The following link shows the 3 models.

Pics of my car are at http://www.cardomain.com/id/nzgti
This car has only done 147,000ks which is low for its age, I only purchased it a month ago for $500 (wasn't running for more than 1-2mins at a time due to faulty dizzy) which I repaired the same day I foolishly turned up the boost recently and blew the headgasket, however this is undergoing repairs now.. and should be back on the road in a couple of days, I blew the gasket between the 3rd and 4th Cylinder.
The car will go under extensive work, I am going to do the panel and paint myself.
Anyone have some ideas for me? I will do the usual AFM relocation, remove all the factory A/C gear (don't need it here in NZ) but what turbo should I use? last time I used a T25 from a CA18DET, however these are getting old now too, should I got for a T25/T28 Hybrid or a GT25?
The car will not be a drag car as such, as it will also be used as a daily driver.
If anyone has any questions about this particular model then please msg me on MSN. (details in my profile).
I got the B11 Sunny version to be differn't, however that said, its hard to find any of these E15ET turbo models where I live. they rarely come up for sale.
Cheers
Charles

The interior of the red Sunny you have is the same as the interior that was in the ET I had being wrecked at my place. I had that center console adapted to the Aussie N12 dash. Looked a treat!
Good to know what car it actually came out of. It was the only console like that, that I had seen in Australia.

Blew the headgasket recently, heres a pic of what happened to it.
What would usually cause it to happen like this?
After getting the car backtogether I did a quick 0-130k run, wasn't really thrashing it.. but I think it went ok, heres a video of that..
keep in mind the cars stock standard at this stage, no mods at all.
