Hey look new blood!
 Lol hey dude. Car sounds nice. Alot of money for an S12 but that's subjective ofcourse. 1) Yes 114.3 same as S13 200SX/Silvia 2) That's ridiculous. S12s and Bluebird Turbos should have 97 RON Unleaded. Leaded doesn't even come into it. I used both 97, or 95 RON when I was feeling tight, and never had any issues. No pinking or anything

Cheers dude itll be run on super unleaded anyway im used to paying through the nose for it thats wat i ran my '68 beetle on and my current car bmw 323i so itll be run on the super
 thanks for the info. I thought it was a tad expensive for one but i was shocked at how well this car looks for a 89. The current owners been working for a nissan parts department for fooking ages so everything that needed replaced was replaced. Hopfully it passes it m.o.t going sometime this week fingers crossed Look forward to absorbing all the information i can off anyone willing to lend my there input .M.T

You might as well pour horse piss in your tank as add redex,it does absolutely nothing.I never had a problem with 95 ron.
Why didn't it have the timing belt replaced,not tightened?I't is a cheap and handy job to do on an s12 mind you. Lift the tailgate up and check for rust around the hinges. Last edited by irish s12; 26-01-2010 at 22:56.

I bought an s12 engine once before and was told the same thing about the fuel.It would only run rite on 98 ron+.
I replaced the fuel pressure regulator with another spare one i had and it cured it. Try holding out and getting a manual s12 rather than Auto

Well guys it passed its m.o.t the day with no work needing done.
The spoiler was a absoulte b@5tard to find apparently :S looks good tho. Ill get some pics. The only thing is its having idleing problems prob down to the fact hes put that additive into it!  He says the fuel pumps sticking so ill take it out and clean it up or replace it (are they expensive?), Drain the tank of its shite fuel and top it up with V power. hopfully that'll fix it ...Hopfully!As for the gearbox im only getting it in an auto coz its for sale and ive got the cash to buy it i was never out looking for a silvia was just a car a guy was selling in work. My dad knows a hes got a manual box sitting taking up space so i might get it and convert it. Would it be worth my while doing so? M.T
