Sorry mitch, but I can't see anyone paying $12k for a non-turbo. Like steve said, maybe $9k is closer to the mark.

yeah no joke , gonna wait and see what happens with my financial today , if it goes according to plan ill drop the price in order to sell asap

plus im gonna speak to my dad when he lands in Melbourne and see what he takes on it .

im trying to get my mate who just bought a skyline yesterday who cant handle the power and wants to return it to stock standard to consider trade plus cash his way

as all he is wanting is a skyline he can daily to work and back and im sure mines perfect for him , plus he isnt a car person .

doesnt know what a hicas lock bar is or what coilovers are so...

time will tell :P

Swap + $ with your mate seems like the best way to go - convince him of this. Maybe swap cars for a day or two to see if he likes the idea? Saves you the hassle of having to sell & buy again.

yeah thats what im thinking , the only thing is he is fair sketchy on manual and i got to drive his car around all day yesterday although it does have a TODA Racing clutch which is really hard compared to a normal

clutch so im pretty sure he would be fine in my car as my clutch is light as in comparison , but yeah im gonna suggest that to him today because he likes the r33 but he wants to return the one he got to stock ,

and last night he called me saying he regretted buying the car he did as it had too much power...

hopefully he is willing to trade

GL with the sale mitch, good car for someone who already has an engine they wanna drop in, your paintwork is immaculate.

cheers damo !

even all of my mates agree with my cars body and paint and how immaculate it is :P

well, Ive been quoted petrol money change out of 2grand to fit and tune the following:

Cometic intake manifold gasket

Cometic intake collector gasket

Cometic exhaust gasket

Cometic Head gasket 1.2mm x 87mm

ARP head stud kit

EPP 6mm viton Intake valve seals

EPP 6mm viton Exhaust valve seals

EPP Intake valve seats

EPP Exhaust valve seats

EPP Intake valve guides

EPP Exhaust valve guides

Q45 90mm throttle body

Greddy Q45-RB25 adapter kit

EPP clear cam gear timing belt cover

Tomei oil gallery restrictor orifice

Tomei hi-lift valve springs ~8.8mm

Tomei 256/256 poncam camshaft set

Gates Racing timing belt kit incl. tensioner and idler

2x 700cc Sard injector external intake manifold setup

ryco oil filter, oil filter magnet set & Motul 4100 turbolite 10/40w oil

Need a controller for the extra injectors tho........................

expect, with the sards, there should be enough fuel injc. headroom to push a nice comfortable 230kw tune., with heaps big torque

:P

then thats it, bar pistons/rings and rods/bearings; maybe in 5yrs time. lol

hey Tangles, have you already purchased all the aforementioned head related parts or are you planing to get them.

Different if you already have, but if you haven't, IMHO I would do pistons & maybe rods 1st.........would also be cheaper than all the stuff you've mentioned but only a little more in labour costs

yeah thats what im thinking , the only thing is he is fair sketchy on manual and i got to drive his car around all day yesterday although it does have a TODA Racing clutch which is really hard compared to a normal

clutch so im pretty sure he would be fine in my car as my clutch is light as in comparison , but yeah im gonna suggest that to him today because he likes the r33 but he wants to return the one he got to stock ,

what sort of power has your mates car got if it too much for him :P thought TODA only did toyota parts

will msg you tonight when i get home

    • Perfect, I'll get to it this winter then at the same time as I weld on my anti squat kit. 
    • Alright so my 32 only has one temperature no matter what degree you set it to. I’ve tried disconnecting the servo motor arm and moving it either direction and got no change. I’ve fixed the leak in my AC and re charged it and with it on and clutch engaged it still blows hot even though the low pressure pipe going to the firewall is ice cold. Both heater core hoses are hot while running as well. Diagnostic code showed 24 for intake air temperature sensor. Anybody got any ideas?
    • I said Garrett style. Not Garrett genuine. And something in the G30 550 range is what you want. Not those pokey little old fashioned T28 sized things. The intake ports in the head are small. There is little benefit in fattening up the runners and leaving ths actual ports small. Just run what you've got. And on the subject of Nistune vs Haltech etc..... You know you can control the transmission with decent standalone ECUs these days, right? No need to keep any of that old Nissan bullshit. Don't get me wrong - I use Nistune on my Neo. But it is a DET, so the number of bodges and workarounds I had to do to make it work in a chassis without ABS, TCS, etc, is quite small compared to the herniated arsehole you will have trying to make it work on a motor that doesn't have some of the things that the turbo ECU wants to see. Just easier to bite the bullet and go aftermarket outright.      
    • Hmm. Only when the f**king thing is actually working. Still can't find the leak. And that's with dye being put in the last 3 times!
