Keen as to buy a house soon, and to keep the Line would be really hard with maintenece and modding and really you could drive down the road anyday and BANG get a defect, and there goes the fun right there...........

So unfortunatly i would prob leave the import stage for a while whilst i sort my financial things out first!

There would be a few things i'd need to clean up on the beast before selling, So it wont be too soon, but still hopefully in the nearish future!

made the same rational choice, hence driving the r34 right now.

Feeling bad every now and then, a very painful path.

Something i thought i should get something real slow so I can completely forget about performance and 100% concentrate on the goal

lol, been there and done all that - its soooo true, it really does go round full circle

car (LT celica), car (VW Type 3), car (ford eb), buy house sell car, bike (gpx250), car (pulsar n15), bike (zx9r), surgery sell bike, recover buy another bike (cbr900), car (VR v8), 2nd car (nubira), sell house buy new house, sell the V8 buy the import (Stagea)

yep, full circle :D

$7500 so sad, so cheap, toooo cheap. Oh well.

Damn car re-sellers ! Damn the ball boys too while we are at it.

Oh late November.

It's to much registering 2 cars and insuring them while driving 800 km to work each week. And then driving through the hills on the weekend in the line was getting a bit expensive.

I'm going to save until tax return time and see what i'll do.

love the look of your car man

id love a skyline like that, minus some of the extra engine mods ( keep the fuel bill down a bit lol :mad:

Well mine will be for sale soon, and if you really want it im sure there would be a couple of people here to buy some parts off of it! or just leave it how it is and not use the right foot as much! i found the later to work quite well! :)

    • I'm actually not sure - I think it was "Stealth Performance" (It really is near impossible to find a FEMALE 1/8BSPT to 1/8NPT male at ALL) but having the thing leveraged on a 90 degree angle on a small aluminium fitting is not too smart. Also in not too smart, I've drilled out the center of the broken fitting so there's maybe 0.00001mm of thread to bite into, so yeah. I may have to get it drilled/tapped/plugged entirely. Given I could conceivably tap a thread/adapter/pressure line in any point in the oil system I suppose it's feasible to run a line to the Nissan Sensor to keep the dash working. Do these exist in AN fittings and the like? Like an AN fitting that has a NPT (or other?) thread as well for putting a sensor in?
    • I would agree.  There will be an amount of boost you could run safely with an otherwise factory system, but it would be low enough to not be worth the cost.  And if you are reliving your 20s, you know a 'little bit' was never enough. Personally, if I didn't want to spend the money, then stick with NA bolt-ons, and maybe a tune.
    • Fuark, at least the motor survived. What brand was the fitting that snapped?
    • Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.
    • Measure voltage at the starter solenoid terminal when the key is at start and it has clicked. If it is really low, then the suspicion falls on the ignition switch (contacts or wiring thereof) as causing a voltage drop instead of sending enough volts to throw the solenoid all the way to engage the starter itself. If it is a decent voltage, then the suspicion is on the solenoid. Might have s horted coil, or might hva dirty contacts. Rip the starter off, dismantle, clean up contacts and inspect winding. It might not be possible to see if there is a short in the winding though. I have a spare starter here that I could measure the resistance of the coil, as a guide to about what it should be, if you need a comparison. <parts hoarder>No you cannot have it.</parts hoarder>
