crd are pretty $$$ but look at what you get for it... i would never take my car to BEL after the last dyno night.

From memory, CRD charged around $200 for a full inspection on my old car for the new owner before I sold it, including dyno check and comprehensive chassis inspection which I think is very reasonable.

Considering what your about to pay when buying the car, the above is a small price to pay for peace of mind.

So 7 months later I ended up putting a deposit on this today:

Expecting delivery in about a week, getting it inspected etc. Very excited/nervous. It has a very touchy clutch that i'm really not used to at all, but other than that the car is great.

look nice mate. just make sure you get it well checked out. there is a touch of fabrication in the ad. $6000 work emotion CR kai? lol. $700 apexi pods? double lol.

Yeah mate i'm not too phased by that stuff, as long as the engine, diffs, gearbox etc are all Mickey Mouse i'll be a happy camper. thinking about replacing the clutch with something a bit more user friendly as well, can't be arsed fighting with it constantly and I don't plan on launching it a lot either so there's not much benefit for me.

    • Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.
    • Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.
    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
