Nissan Bluebird turbo

[N44379]

Ok so has ANYBODY got one of these for sale? LOL
And for those of you who dont kno what the hell they are.... search them up
Im looking for a cheap project to do for the summer, and it seems as thought only a few months ago you could find
sellers sites littered with them for around £600, i even saw one go for £200 once :O and now i can only find one in the ENTIRE UK for £1500 :O lol
Evn if its a bog standard model id still be interested, feel free to discuss

The old square Rwd one or the early 90s 4wd CA18DET one? Or was there a version in between as well, I forget.

I'm no help finding one, but here are a couple photos to build some anticipation in the meantime:

Or this type...

This one cost me £20 and I sold it two years later for £50. I added a Skyline turbo so it went well until you got to a corner....

Well as far as i know u can get fwd, rwd (seen one with rb25det motor once ! ) AND 4WD, however the turbos only came with fwd or 4WD
However the 4wd models are IMPOSSIBLE to find, they were only available to the japanese markets
and i think japan is the last place u can find them lol oh well, a man can dream....

And wow £20 lol ashame the price of scrap has gone up so much, its where most of
these old cheapies have gone off too :/

It was brilliant, never let me down over those two years. Good luck with finding one

There were definitely Rwd turbos at one stage, thats one above and I know of a couple of others being rallied too. Whether you got them in the UK I don't know though.

Mate had a CA18 turbo 4wd one for a while, think it cost him $1500 or something. Model SSS-X ATTESSA, pretty sure it was a Jap import not an NZ model. Went fairly well, nothing too amazing.

My neighbour has one sitting in his front lawn for the past 8years, was a *project* that never got started. Not sure if he would sell it, but its a strange one, not my cup of tea but seems to draw people. Can I ask why?

Ah, well if hes around the west midlands area mind asking him? , and i get where your coming from, thier not paticularly fast, or amazing to look at for most people, but i love the old school jap look (especially if thier done up a bit ), and the bluebird turbo never relli took off liike the first skylines, or sx cars, but its from a rarther sepcial era , and plus its always exciting doing a 120 in a car which could burst into pieces at any second lol

lol, i guess you have that rare factor where you will never see another and people will stare at it trying to figure out what it is. unfortunatly im in the west of scotland so probably a bit far. but i will ask him next time he is around. happy hunting!
