Hi all,

I wouldn't be surprised if this is one of the most powerful Bluebird Attesas in Sydney.. I am the first Aussie owner of the car, which was imported from Japan just for me. Car arrived completely stock, with ~56,000 kays in 2000.

Reason for selling: I don't need it anymore (public transport to work now).

It's a gun metal grey 1994 Bluebird Attesa with black top SR20DET which is stock on the outside but has the following engine/interior mods:

* GT25 Turbo (rated @ 350HP)

* 3" Liverpool Exhaust from dump back with twin tip HiTech muffler to look as close to stock as possible. Also pretty quiet for a 3" SR20DET.

* Garrett bar and plate intercooler (painted black) (core from Cooma Diesel - custom end tanks)

* Z32 air flow meter

* 600cc Injectors

* Chipped ECU (tuned by Unigroup on 4wd Dyno).

* R33 GT-R fuel pump

* 60mm throttle body from N14 Pulsar SSS

* Custom intake, Apexi filter, and relocated battery

* Blitz Dual SBC Boost Controller

* Momo Race Steering Wheel

* Autometer Boost, Oil Pressure and Voltmeter gauges installed in spare DIN slot

* Pioneer Flip face Tape deck with 6 stack CD

* Pioneer Splits in doors

* Pioneer 6" 3 ways in parcel shelf

* ~120,000 kays.

* Tinted windows (20% tint - nice and dark)

* Brant immobiliser

* Rhino Alarm

* Factory front lip

* Made 166.6awkw at SAS on ~20psi. I think with a more agressive tune it can crack 180.

* All the mods were done myself unless shop mentioned above.

* Serviced every 5,000 kays

Never thrashed, gave it a hit every now and then but that's about it.

Has these standard bits:

* climate control

* power windows

* central locking

* power steering, etc

*Price $12,500 ONO

PM or reply if you want more info.. Pics hopefully this weekend.

Located in Sydney.

correct me if im wrong but is that turbo pretty much a step up from standard?? just trying to figure out why such a low power figure on 20PSI through a SR20DET is possible?? not trying to be rude either mate.. :P

hmm just read that the turbo is rated at 350HP... ummm that power out put don't make sense...

Oops, I meant to put in $Make an offer. The ones on carsales are ~10k, but they're either series I, auto, stock, ugly, or a combination of all 3.

Please refer to FORUM RULES; price MUST be stated.

Thanks

166 ALL wheel kw...

350HP max of air flow means it can produce 350hp worth of air.

that's at the engine.

350/1.34 to get kw = 261kw MAX at the engine.

this car is Constant 4wd not like the gtr.

so,

considering a stock wrx of 160kw will put out about 110kw at the wheels and has the same sort of drivetrain loss, you can see why his car is putting out 166kw at the wheels.

20 psi is not the max he can run with that turbo.

expect about 60kw loss to the wheels, I'd say that the most he could get at the wheels on that turbo would be about 200kw.

Also, he says he has a Garret intercooler from a COOMA diesel (I'm guessing some sort of truck..)

Possibly a bottle neck there.. I don't know.

anyway, it sounds like a well setup car.

Hope it sells soon for ya.

Impakt - if the price comes down to the $10K mark ever, let me know first please..

Thanks.

Gents, the core is a brand new garrett unit, not a cut down truck one. It's bar and plate too.

Cooma Diesel sell heaps of go fast bits for everything, not just diesel (when i got the core they did anyway).

GTST - I can't bring myself to sell it for that much considering how much stock/auto/ugly ones are going for these days..

    • Yup. You can get creative and make a sort of "bracket" with cable ties. Put 2 around the sender with a third passing underneath them strapped down against the sender. Then that third one is able to be passed through some hole at right angles to the orientation of the sender. Or some variation on the theme. Yes.... ummm, with caveats? I mean, the sender is BSP and you would likely have AN stuff on the hose, so yes, there would be the adapter you mention. But the block end will either be 1/8 NPT if that thread is still OK in there, or you can drill and tap it out to 1/4 BSP or NPT and use appropriate adapter there. As it stands, your mention of 1/8 BSPT male seems... wrong for the 1/8 NPT female it has to go into. The hose will be better, because even with the bush, the mass of the sender will be "hanging" off a hard threaded connection and will add some stress/strain to that. It might fail in the future. The hose eliminates almost all such risk - but adds in several more threaded connections to leak from! It really should be tapered, but it looks very long in that photo with no taper visible. If you have it in hand you should be able to see if it tapered or not. There technically is no possibility of a mechanical seal with a parallel male in a parallel female, so it is hard to believe that it is parallel male, but weirder things have happened. Maybe it's meant to seat on some surface when screwed in on the original installation? Anyway, at that thread size, parallel in parallel, with tape and goop, will seal just fine.
    • How do you propose I cable tie this: To something securely? Is it really just a case of finding a couple of holes and ziptying it there so it never goes flying or starts dangling around, more or less? Then run a 1/8 BSP Female to [hose adapter of choice?/AN?] and then the opposing fitting at the bush-into-oil-block end? being the hose-into-realistically likely a 1/8 BSPT male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSPT reducing bush? I am making the assumption the OEM sender is BSPT not BSPP/BSP
    • I fashioned a ramp out of a couple of pieces of 140x35 lumber, to get the bumper up slightly, and then one of these is what I use
    • I wouldn't worry about dissimilar metal corrosion, should you just buy/make a steel replacement. There will be thread tape and sealant compound between the metals. The few little spots where they touch each other will be deep inside the joint, unable to get wet. And the alloy block is much much larger than a small steel fitting, so there is plenty of "sacrificial" capacity there. Any bush you put in there will be dissimilar anyway. Either steel or brass. Maybe stainless. All of them are different to the other parts in the chain. But what I said above still applies.
    • You are all good then, I didn't realise the port was in a part you can (have!) remove. Just pull the broken part out, clean it and the threads should be fine. Yes, the whole point about remote mounting is it takes almost all of the vibration out via the flexible hose. You just need a convenient chassis point and a cable tie or 3.
