Gday,

I got defected a few months back and can't afford engineering. I'm going to sell my car at the moment as UNREGISTERED. It can be re-registered for those who have connections or can get engineering.

Make/Model:

R31 s3 (not sure if it's TI, exec or whatever, it has air con)

87 or 88 I think

Kilometers:

350,000 at least but odo stopped at 187k-ish

Transmission type:

5 speed!

Engine:

rb30

Colour:

blue

Modifications:

- HSD coilovers 8/6k I think. (not more than 30k). (I bought from REPLICATE who I used to work with, I remember he bought them for his ceffy and I've driven less than 100km on them).

- r32 steering rack (great condition, checked it before putting it in)

- S13 coilover conversion (lower control arms, brakes, brake lines, proper rear top hats etc)

- custom lines for r32 rack (cost me just under $300!)

- hole in bonnet (comes with the kind of east bear-ish reverse scoop)

- Modena Japanese 3 piece rims in absolute mint condition (16x7 and 16x8 for that old school toughness, includes all pins/caps etc)

- Tyres that aren't shagged

- Short shift kit

- Stripped interior (rear seatbelts still in)

- Apex pod filter

- r32 FMIC kit (including FMIC which is already mounted)

- VLT stainless ebay exhaust manifold

- "glue on" flares (fatness)

- option of 40mm spacers (which were machined to fit the wheels and nissan hubs, will match these flares)

- import rear garnish (installed!)

- garden edge

- full sick drift styled mild steel tipped exhaust (needs a hanger welded on)

- tinted windows

- solid alloy steering spacer

- tein camber plates (bushes in great nick)

Roadworthy Certificate:

no

Registered:

no

Accident History:

none at all

Asking Price:

$2.5k

Location:

North Shore, Sydney

Contact Details:

0410 532 548 - call if you're serious, i don't want to be f**king around texting 15 year olds with no money

Other Comments:

It runs and it's fine (if I could clear it it would have become a drift-daily), if I wasn't without a job at the moment and it wasn't defected I would finish off the bonnet and use the thing daily.

Car will come with all stock parts I can find. Can make cheaper minus the VLT gear and can make it really really cheap minus suspension and/or wheels (they're the most expensive thing on the car).

Basically that's the lot as I can remember it. If it doesn't sell as an entire car I will take a spanner to it and rip everything off and part it out. I would prefer to sell it whole however as it used to be Bryce Courtney's car and it was stock as a rock when I got it.... I'd prefer it go to someone who'll either revert to stock or build it up to a drift car. My original intention was to put the VLT gear in, weld the diff and have a drift.... the car has been sitting outside my ex's house for months now because I haven't had money Sad

The car will come with as many original parts I can find. I DID however throw away the rear seat as it was crap.

More pics to come, there are many in the buildup thread in my signature however.

The vent and obviously the hole beneath it

If you do part I'll take the suspension mate, my 31 is very "boaty!"

Gday,

I'll part it out if no one buys it as a whole or I get enough serious people buying the main parts. The suspension is s13 coilovers, so you know. PM me to let me know if you would also be interested in the s13 conversion "kit" or just the coilovers so I can factor this in.

Cheers.

Is it turboed at the moment or do you have the parts to put on a turbo on it, like just the manfold and no turbo

Edited by tootooldrifter

Not turboed at the moment, I have exhaust manifold, gaskets, all piping, silicone, o clamps and FMIC. To turbo it'll need the turbo, the water/oil lines, injectors, fuel pump and the computer. With that it's either rechip, VLT computer or custom. The VLT computer has a knock sensor whereas the r31 one does not, that didn't bother me too much as I was only going to run safe boost with it and CEF11E who's posted in this thread was going to do the remap for me.

Anyway I've taken a deposit for it and hopefully it'll be picked up this weekend :w00t:

Car reportedly safe with owner now in Victoria :worship:

Best deal ever ebay feedback lols good !1heke!121 etc blah

I'm not sure if the owner wants his plans revealed however I would keep an eye out for a 4 door r31 causing havoc somewhere ;)

attached: car gettin loaded :)

    • Found the answer: it wont fit without a bit of work- you'd have to change the guards as well
    • Ok cool, because I do have some OEM BMW options for light(er) wheels. 17x8.5 M Sport wheels are 11kg and I could put 255's on them. Maybe that's an initial test.
    • So, in the effort of pulling apart airboxes and testing enclosures to see if this aids in MAP loss at WOT I noticed: 1) The ducts up the OEM intercooler holes from the front bar help IAT drastically, whether the pod is shielded from the engine bay by an airbox missing a lid, or an airbox WITH a lid. Plus you get more induction sound without the lid. Having half the airbox (with no lid) acting as a barrier to the headers seems to help. 2) For shits and giggles I checked the TB. This was full pedal travel. This is actually full travel of the TB. Photos aren't perfect, but there was definitely an amount of play in it and it wasn't against the stop. After much swearing and adjusting the pedal, I realised that the cable is actually too long for the skyline pedal travel to fully articulate it. Having the pedal adjusted so WOT was actually hard open on WOT resulted in an idle of 3500rpm. As an aside, this was also the TPS registering at 3.1%. I removed the above to give the pedal enough travel to actually fully open the TB. I now get a satisfying 'thonk' on full open and full closed which you can hear pumping the pedal as it hits the TB stops (with the bonnet open and intake back on). Luckily for me, the screw screws into a raised metal boss under this plastic piece that is now acting as the new throttle stop. I've gained about 20mm (ish) of pedal travel and I can move it maybe a mm or two post open-thonk before it's hard against the stop. After all of this I did a bit of road tuning because a 102MM throttle is sensitive. The difference between holding an 950rpm idle and instantly stalling is about 0.4% of TPS movement. Will that help? I suppose it can't hurt. I set 'closed' point back to where it was, I can definitely feel the extra pedal travel that is needed to actually open the TB fully. But this morning I dropped the car off at Paint Jail again, so who knows when this will re-eventuate out to see if it helps with the top of the dyno hitting a ceiling.
    • Take heart that everyone else seems to have found a way. The OEM S1 indicators do slot in pretty firmly. It may simply be a case of having them sit slightly looser and nobody actually ever noticed this when attempting to remove a indicator from a JSAI bar :p
