Not sure where to put this thread so if it is the wrong place please move.

In two weeks my caldina will be in the UK,

It is a 2003 series III caldina GT Four . This one is the hardcore N spec model and will be my daily driver.
I wont be modding it too much because I have a Nissan Stagea with more mods than you can shake a stick at and I only need one silly car.

So back to the caldina. As far as I know it is the only n spec in the UK . It has a few sensible mods , exhaust , induction and a boost controller.

The N has quite a few upgrades to the normal GT Four model.

Torsen LSDs , lowered with different suspension , factory bodykit , nice alloys and a full recaro interior with a few gadgets likw rear veiw camera .
It also has sports ABS ( whatever that is ) Engine is the ST 246 with a sports sequential tiptronic box. I know for serious driving a manual is best but this suits me as it will be a daily drive and I have the stagea for track days and santapod etc.


A few pics

Oooh nice.

How easy and expensive are they to get imported now?

Do you know how many speeds the auto box has?

Interesting looking car, more rounded and modern looking than the only other Caldina I've seen. Front end styling looks very much like a hybrid of ST205 and Gen 7.

Welcome to the club.

The gearbox is 4 speed . Toyota call it Super intelligent 4 speed automatic (Super ECT) but as far as I can see it is just tiptronic
Re pricing
caldinas are cheap enough but s3 do seem to hold their price . Like most cars the top of the range ususally fares better so the GT Fours hold their price best and the N spec more so as they are a much better drive and also much rarer.
This is a one owner with low mileage and service history so quite hard to find in this condition.
I bought this direct from a dealer in Japan who I have bought cars from before so I am sure it will be as
described. ( I hope )

My boss wants one of those.

Not bad for dd duties, not bad!
