My bad, I thought all Libertys had the EJ22. I'm pretty sure the EJ20 was better as far as power was concerned (don't quote me, but I think something to do with resonance).

As for the GTiR, not a big fan... To me it just seems like a project by Nissan to make something to compete with a WRX, which failed a little. Just my opinion though hehe

Seems like a few good cars are interstate - I don't want the hassle but !

Anyway, I'll keep looking.

Bike is as good as sold, so I might just bide my time and wait for all the P platers to sell their turbo cars for cheap, also people may want to get rid of quick ddue to the propose anti-hoon laws... Gotta love being nearly 40 ;) There's one advantage of being OLD !

also people may want to get rid of quick ddue to the propose anti-hoon laws...

In my opinion people who would do this are kidding themselves. The hoon is the driver, not the car, and I see plently of Camry's, Magnas and Excels doing stupid shit. On the up side, you might get a cheap car out of it though, I won't disagree ;)

Hey that's true!

But why get another torquey straight-line monster (or a car that you can turn into one) when you've already got one. You've got the sledgehammer, go for the scalpel.

Any rotary based car that has had its engine replaced with an inferior piston engine should be terminated as a crime against society (sp?).

Bwahaha.. :nyaanyaa:

Awww.. Maybe the guy didnt want to send his mechanics children through university with the cost of keeping that wankel running? :thumbsup:

Whoops - I just bought another car......

I am a Nissan owner again ! YAY.

Don't get too excited - It's another project..... ha ha ha ha

Pretty much stock CA20 with headers and zorst. Manual 5 speed

Got it off e-bay for $1500 ha ha - never even inspected it - what a crack ! This should be good.

Plans

--------

CA18DET conversion is the first thing.

Lock the Diff

See where we go from there.

Yeah - but this is different - it's a Nissan :(

And this one has rego and is not a ex rally car like the laser was (impossible to get registered)

One drifter coming up :mellow:

Ha ha

YES, I am a glutton for punishment - but I love it.

Even though the laser project failed, I had fun with it !

Hmmm - there's a CA18DET on e-bay for $400 - 69,000 kms....... NO NO NO Don't do it !

    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
    • Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.
    • Hmmm, interesting. Makes me wonder whether there is bias as well. It's the cheapest fuel, so it is used for all kinds of ill-maintained shitboxes which are bound to have issues regardless. Nicer cars tend to require higher octane rated fuel and can't use it anyway. FWIW, the official NSW E10 facts page is decent.
