Hi Mate,

Engine has done 90,000kms since I bought it, and 170,000 is on the car. The engine was very strong, Fatz drove it the last day it was running and said that all it needed was a bigger turbo... actually the only reason I pulled it out was because we had the bigger engine pretty much done, and I am really not 100% sure I want to sell it, as I'm thinking about keeping it as a spare engine if I lunch this one.

Overall condition... it always got serviced less than 5000kms, I always run top oils, make sure that it is running good fuel and looked after it extreamly well, I was getting all the stuff through sponsorship... Never ran more than 0.8bar of boost.

Never had a problem with the engine, except for a cracked exhaust manifold, that is it.

Engine was sealed before I took it out of the car.

Let me know if you want some other info, or more specific info.

Cheers,

Dan.

sorry for the hi-jack, free bump I guess

Just wondering whether your mspec front bar came with the 2 grills on the bottom part or if you bought them somewhere.

Or if you want to sell them to me I'm only 15 min drive to Penrith on the m4 :domokun:

I am selling the with the bar, which should be going in the next 2 weeks. They came with the bar, might try jsut jap or SSS automotive?

Hey, Thanks anyway dude.

If it's not too much trouble, could you see if the grills have any product or number code on them? I'll try to order them through nissan lincorp because nobody else has got them, a product code would really help.

All the best mate

Cheers

    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2  
    • Thank you so much for the help
    • Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
