well there are plenty that go up for sale in oz, hell even i've got some for sale.. but I note you're not in Oz.

Over in the states I'd try Nissan or Nissan parts places - as I believe they sell the S15 over there...

btw: I don't believe you'll fit 255 on those rims - I've heard 235 is the max width for 16x7's

Guest s14 2.4 turbo

Thanks for the info predator666. I also will try a local importer. Sadly the S15 was never released here. We always get the water downed versions any how. My S14 came with a 2.4 NA motor, I believe the same as your Bluebird, I had to make it turbo. If they did release the s15 it would probably come with that 2.5 NA 4cly motor or something. No Skylines here either:( I dream to one day own my own Skyline, I hope they bring over the new GTR. We did get the 350z which is nice, but no Skyline.

No Skylines in US????

Motorex imports skylines into US, and I believe all that's imported are the GT-R, not GTS-T

Aren't we here the one who gets the water down version? US spec TT Supra got more power than jap-spec supra, which are the only one we can import down here.

And the new 2.5 WRX would not likely to make its way down here, only for US. Oz customers only gets the usual 2.0 litre.

The skyline that motrex brings over, sells for double the price that it sells there for $80,000 US dolars for a newer GTR, and steering wheel is on the wrong side...lol I did not know that about the supra though, we have not had a supra though since 1996. Things are geeting better here subaru 2.5 WRX is a nice suprise to see that we are going to get it. This is a recent change as about 5-7 years ago everything was either mustang or camero if you wanted to go fast. Most japanese companies avoided giving us turbos because we are belived to be only V8 lovers. times have changed for the better. I guess it like when everyone thinks that all americains carry guns. I hear that there are allot more women over there than guys. Is that true? If it is I think I will move there. lol

;)

    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
