Hello,

A work ute took on my R34 when they changed lanes without looking (Nice to know I pay high insurance and I am the one that knows the basics of lane changing)

I am in a pickle as I can not find the parts needed to fix my only means of transport. The panel beaters cant seem to locate the following either, can you help?

Right side quarter panel

Right side indicator (small one)

Right side mirror

I have called A1 wrecking & cresta and they dont have any parts available.

Anyone know another place in Brisbane or goldcoast??

If is an insurance job... Kick your insurance company in the arse!!!!! The insurance companies like to hold on to their cash for as long as they can and therefore quite often give people the run around. So too do a lot of repairers(like to hold on to their cash). Parts can always be found! It is most probable that the insurer and the repairer just dont have adequate sources (they dont go all that far out of their way). When my car was sick i sourced all the parts that the insurance company said that they couldnt find and found them quite easily!

(some second hand import yards get a lot of half cuts)

Thanks

I am trying locate these parts as I have dealt with this BS before (non import) I already have the insurance companies customer service ombudsman contact details as a 3-4+ week wait for panel damage is not acceptable.

All I want is to find the parts - tee up the panel beaters with the wreckers.

if its covered under insurance get them to fly new parts in from japan! Thats what happened to me when my U13 Atessa got rearended. All brand new panels flown in from Japan, took a bit longer but worth the wait. You should not need to locate parts for them so they can do it cheaper.

Man, I opened this thread thinking it was another my Skyline beat your Commowhore reading...

Sorry to hear, hope it all works out for you. The insurance company should be able to locate all the parts for you... I'd hope so anyway for the amounts some of our premiums are :rofl:

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By Duncan · Posted

      Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required

      Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi

      Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom

      I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
