That car shell is missing so many pieces the profit margin would be slim at best, the pictures still show it with a million more pieces than it has. If you want to make a quick $25K there are better/easier ways. The only thing GTR about it is the VIN number. It would be that much of a bastard to rebuild you'd need literally another complete GTR to scab bits off, only good if you've picked up something in Japan that can't be complied and you bring it over as the donor car.....even then I can imagine Mr Angle grinder would come out and the chassis numbers would mysteriously swap....presto complied

Exactly

Why would someone strip a $60K car?

If the previous damage was that badly repaired before, and you need to recify it, you surely could not make any money tring to rebuild it for profit

maybe it was stripped to be rebuilt to a racecar with a full cage and seam welding....

How can you not make a profit when it costs roughly up to $20k to buy a full motor, box, loom, dash, brakes, wheels etc. It isnt that hard for someone who has the money and time... The hardest part of compliancing is already done.

The car will have a Damage history from this already. you wont get anything near 60k.

Maybe 50k. If its brought back to exact original.

$20k to bring back to original?

Where do you get your parts from?

Engine - V-SpecII 6k+

Gearbox 4-5K

Complete Driveline....$$$

Interior? $3-4K+

All Panels, Bumpers, Wing, Diffuser.

Can only dream. Too much.

mate i can get a 34R motor for $3.5k, box for $1,500 diffuser for $300, i think YOU are searching in the wrong spots mate, A whole front half cut with loom, steering column/rack, motor, box, headlights, bonnet, fenders dash for $9k!!! I have been messing with GTRs for a very very long time, had my own workshop, new part suppliers and ex race part suppliers. So, i dont think i have a unreasonable understanding of what it costs. You can get things cheaper off Zac at slidewize already without having to do any real searching. Sorry mate...

The car has no damage history... So i dont have a clue what you are on about, it is not a write off or stat write off.

closed. I told you twice that we don't do "please see my ebay auction ad", I asked you nicely to fix your ad to meet the rules. you didn't.

    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
