Pioneer door speakers and pov spec CD player included. Full auto electric arial.

Will through in a DVD player, In Dash DVD, Sub and Amp Uninstalled for an extra $500 (Pending testing that they actually work)

Damage from accident has been repaired but bonnet has a dent and both bonnet and filler panel really need paint.

LSD works pretty well in the wet, not so good in the dry but better than single spinner.

Cracked a head a year or so ago so she got a brand new head, radiator, thermostat, water pump etc then. Also got new belts including timing belt.

All electrics work (except cruise which has been removed), air con is icy cold, in fact it actually spits out bits of ice sometimes on high :P

Has immobilser with keyless entry,

All bushes have been replaced with nolathane a couple of months ago, as well as new ball joints.

Power steering has a slight leak (needs about 1 cap of fluid every 6 months)

Spent well over the asking price in the mods not to mention the cost of the car when i bought it but i want quick cash so priced to sell!

Great car to buy with suspension and brakes already done ready for a turbo upgrade or maybe a 30DE. Turns well and stops on a dime.

Pics from a little while ago, nothing much changed since then:

Why was the cruise control removed ?

The whole system, or just the drivers control from the drivers compartment ?

Also, I assume these pics are PRIOR to the accident damage occurring ? as I can't see any damage in the pics whatsoever.

Fine looking car as it was then.

Cruise control was removed coz it was broken (worked maybe 60% of the time). And when I did the manual conversion I could'nt be bothered wiring in the clutch cut out switch since it didnt work properly anyway. So i just ripped it out. The loom is still in there, and the throttle body has the extra cable fitting, but there is no servo or interior controls in the car.

The pics are after the accident, if you look carefully at the bonnet you can see the paint looks less glossy. Its more obviousy in the flesh, the photo tends to hide it a bit. You can't really see the dent in the photo either.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
