Gday,

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)

- Stripped interior (rear seatbelts still in)

- Apex pod filter

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

- "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 :)

    • Thought I would get some advice from others on this situation.    Relevant info: R33 GTS25t Link G4x ECU Walbro 255LPH w/ OEM FP Relay (No relay mod) Scenario: I accidentally messed up my old AVS S5 (rev.1) at the start of the year and the cars been immobilised. Also the siren BBU has completely failed; so I decided to upgrade it.  I got a newer AVS S5 (rev.2?) installed on Friday. The guy removed the old one and its immobilisers. Tried to start it; the car cranks but doesnt start.  The new one was installed and all the alarm functions seem to be working as they should; still wouldn't start Went to bed; got up on Friday morning and decided to have a look into the no start problem. Found the car completely dead.  Charged the battery; plugged it back in and found the brake lights were stuck on.  Unplugging the brake pedal switch the lights turn off. Plug it back in and theyre stuck on again. I tested the switch (continuity test and resistance); all looks good (0-1kohm).  On talking to AVS; found its because of the rubber stopper on the brake pedal; sure enough the middle of it is missing so have ordered a new one. One of those wear items; which was confusing what was going on However when I try unplugging the STOP Light fuses (under the dash and under the hood) the brake light still stays on. Should those fuses not cut the brake light circuit?  I then checked the ECU; FP Speed Error.  Testing the pump again; I can hear the relay clicking every time I switch it to ON. I unplugged the pump and put the multimeter across the plug. No continuity; im seeing 0.6V (ECU signal?) and when it switches the relay I think its like 20mA or 200mA). Not seeing 12.4V / 7-9A. As far as I know; the Fuel Pump was wired through one of the immobiliser relays on the old alarm.  He pulled some thick gauged harness out with the old alarm wiring; which looks to me like it was to bridge connections into the immobilisers? Before it got immobilised it was running just fine.  Im at a loss to why the FP is getting no voltage; I thought maybe the FP was faulty (even though I havent even done 50km on the new pump) but no voltage at the harness plug.  Questions: Could it be he didnt reconnect the fuel pump when testing it after the old alarm removal (before installing the new alarm)?  Is this a case of bridging to the brake lights instead of the fuel pump circuit? It's a bit beyond me as I dont do a lot with electrical; so have tried my best to diagnose what I think seems to make sense.  Seeking advice if theres for sure an issue with the alarm install to get him back here; or if I do infact, need an auto electrician to diagnose it. 
    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
