Hi if anyone knows of a dual cab or SWB 4wd for sale I am after one. Dual cab the preference.

Looking to spend up $7K and after a diesel. If its turbo or has something different like a RB motor in it I am also keen.

Can be a little rough in the body as long as mechanically it will be ok. Also need aircon fitted with potential to work if not already.

Thanks

Greg

Nah not yet.

I am posting everywhere I can.

Problem is there are heaps of these interstate but not SA.

I could get one there however we all know what Regency is like.

I went on a chrter trip with a guy from fishsa called big Micky.

I didnt know until after that he was also a Skyline SA member.

lol yeah i met him once brought a auto trans from him small world hey

you wouldnt have any trouble getting a dual cab over regency unless it had a RB engine in it

Yeah hopefully. As I may need to get one interstate.

Thing is it may have a couple of dents faded paint. 300T ks (second motor).

Probably ripped interior etc.

Is for a beach basher left at yorkes so all this is fine however Regency may not look upon it favourably.

If I got one here I wouldnt care if the motor was different from complied. Its staying at the coast.

Have you consideres a Suzuki Sierra?

They were the vehicle of choice 10 years ago when I was down the South East.

They are very hard to get bogged (due to lite weight) and were cheap enough not to worry about the damage of salt water corrosion.

Dont use a Toyota Surf - nice cars but too many problems when driven on the sand - especially the smaller motors.

Needs to be able to tow and launch a boat.

Even a 2.8 diesel is smallish for that but I am not travelling far.

hey dude i got a 720 dual cab nissan/datsun (model is now the navara) its got a 2" body lift. aircon, body is preaty good small amount of rust considering its a 4wd. Done 280t k's. Ill be probably looking at selling in a couple months. It blows a fair bit of smoke probably due to blocked injectors. Let me know if ya be keen

Yeah I could well be. As long as it doesnt die on me. Is it a Diesel? If so what size? It will need to tow a tonne 80km round trips.

    • 12+ months passed so they have no obligation to do a warranty claim. It leaked from the rear circuit. Front circuit was fine, but I tried many times to bench-bleed and in-car bleed (wasted 1L of Penrite racing brake fluid) to no avail. Threw my old BM50 or whatever the standard R32 GT-R BMC is, brakes went back to normal. So from my very limited anecdotal experience, I cannot recommend HFM, even though a lot of their products looks good. Just my experience (I have a genuine Nissan BM57 in a box waiting to be installed now).
    • How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.
    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
