After some long hard thinking. While i've been on suspension. I've realised that my car is no longer Viable for what i want it for without spending alot more cash. And i just can't justify it anymore. With me moving out of home, i no longer need a car to get around. And as much as the Celica has been alot of fun, and a great learning experience, it is time to move on.

So, without further wait. My Car, the 'Red Baron'

The entire build up can be followed at here ===> [Project] 1990 Toyota Celica GT-Four

Engine: The engine i hand picked and built by myself. The bottom end after much research is good for 500hp. And will do it every day all day, as long as you keep the revs down. The engine has just less then 4000km since rebuild.

It is no slouch as proven by my Quarter Mile time. And is an excellent base to work on. With Fueling mods, ECU and new turbo, you can have a 400awhp daily driver.

What you get when you buy the car.

All my spares as found here.

Another set of stock ST185 rims with dunlop tires. And anything i havn't mention.

Price: $14,990.

I realise that this is steep. But for the car, the engine, and all the spares I think it is resonable. I am losing money on this car, with over $10k spend thus far in just upgrading and repairing it. BUT i am open to Reasonable offers. If you have the money, you can buy the car. The car will be sold with RWC unless otherwise organised. I am in no hurry or rush to sell the car. If you are in brisbane, i will help you with upgrading the car if you are serious.

Contact: You can PM me here, or ring me on 0417 761 995. I will not tolerate tire kickers, test drivers or eBay bids. I'm a serious Celica enthusiast, and would much like to see the car sold to someone who will continue my original dream of 400awhp daily driver.

Regards, Richard

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
