Item on hold until I figure whether it can be started or not. For those who have pm'd or called me, or left note of interest in this thread, I'll get back to you when I know the condition of the engine which will hopefully be this weekend if I discover it myself, or next week when I get it to a mechanic.

Drew.

Hey,

Not hijacking the post but does anyone know what that kit is? I've been looking for something and I think thats pretty nice... Please PM if you know.

Also mate, if you do decide to wreck it I'm interested in quite a few parts... but good luck with whole car sale! Real sorry to hear about the accident though, mine is not insured and I rekon I would freak if that happened. Hope u find something else as nice.

Francesca

It's a manual. Stupid me forgot to include that. It also has a single plate ceramic clutch included in the mods under two years old. This clutch cost me $1000 and bites very hard. Hard to get used to using though but I've mastered it.

The front bar was purchased off ebay for $100 with a crack in it. There are no bulbs behind the indicators and I believe it's a copy because the hole in the front where the intercooler sits, doesn't line up evenly with the headlight :D

Different Price, Different Info, Different Poster... I happen to know the guy who posted it on Secretdrift, Im a moderator there id previously closed the thread and reopened it after a lengthy discussion with Eddzy.

This gets more suspect by the minute however, buyer beware :whistling:

One minute its running thats why its a higher price, and its going to be ammended here, next minute the poster on here says it could be seized they dont know if its running... please be careful guys.

Eddzy is a friend of mine and he posted it there on his own accord, doing me a favor. I have taken my ads down here and on Boostcruising because I don't know the condition of the engine at the moment as I can't get it started due to what a mechanic has told me is likely to be hydraulic lock, meaning the cylinders might have oil in them due to the car being upside for probably an hour at the crash scene. An engine won't kick over with enough oil in the cylinders because it can't compress it.

I will put the ad back up when I know if it runs or not and the price I put will be based on whether or not the engine is running.

For reference, I am KylerKF on Boostcruising. I've been an active member there for years (although not in the last few months as I don't work in an office anymore) and quite a few members from there know both me and the car in person.

      Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
