It's fugly. Seen it up close a couple of times. Body kit is full of cracks, and that gold highlight just grates on my nerves.

cant be to bad it was in a car show aye. or mabe it was along time ago.

makes you wonder why you would advertise a car then piss off overseas.

i think buying any skyline or turbo car is trouble buying it off a young fella .

Sounds like a scam... "i am overseas at the moment and can only be contacted via email"....... suss as shit....

a mate of mine who owns an original cooper s mini (old not new) found his car for sale on an o/s site. They had just used pics that he had posted up on the mini site that he is involved with and also from a few different car shows :(

needless to say, he had no idea that his own car was for sale :D

Check out the pics of it by the roadside... if Mad Max drove a skyline, itd be that one.

Would be a cool car to buy if you know someone who could throw some new paint onto it. Look like shite

to my knowledge - it's a legit sale.. sort of..

when he originally posted the car for sale - i gave him a call - he had $23.5k on it.. he said that the price included him fixing the defects that the car and that he'd sell registered (with his own guy doing the safety certificate) - or drop to $18k drive away as is..

too much trouble and just not worth it.. so i obviously passed..

then a price drop to $14k - almost 10 down? I contacted him again to ask about it further.. why the sudden drop? he said that he needed to get rid of it.. the car was in same condition - and i could take it today if i wanted it.. i asked about getting it checked by a mechanic of my choosing - he said that he was overseas so that couldn't be done - nor could i take it for a test drive.. but - of course.. i could buy it if i wanted it without those checks..

not interested..

so be aware - he dropped $10k from the price in a week.. it might not be a scam as such - but careful does it..

      Yeah nice idea, you mean to suction it to the gauges? I hadn't thought of that.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      A few suggestions: Do you have the option of retarding your exhaust cam gear to bring the power band over to the left? VCT would be turned off after you make peak torque, you see the power/torque will decay faster with it left on all the way to the limiter Once VCT is turned off, you'll find the motor will take a bit more timing being ramped in Send its mum, more boost! Of course, depends on your exhaust pressure.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I was back on the dyno again yesterday after completely revamping my methanol injection system. I was making 440kw at 19psi. Great, this is more then I was making last summer with my old meth system at that pressure, and I figured it would be smooth sailing up to 30+psi. We continued increasing from there and by 25psi, I had only hit 455kw. Dyno sadly lost utility power at this point and I left. We seemed to be on course to hit the same power wall as last summer (477kw@27psi). This is a built RB25 S1 stroked to a 2.8. Built and ported head with Kelford 272/262 cams. Precision 6466 Turbo. Tuner last year believed the power wall is a mix of RPM limitations (Hydro lifters/Limit set at 7600RPM) and fueling. With my new meth system, we're seeing zero knock now but it still won't go up.  What else can I do at this point? Here's my train of thought.  - It's clear from the dyno graph that I would easily make power to 8500+RPM but I'm limited to 7600RPM. I could risk increasing my limiter, but hydro lifters have me worried. What are my options here besides going NEO head or solid lifter conversion? I'm rocking a 1.05AR turbine on my 6466. Would dropping down to a .84 help shift that power down in anyway? - We're only seeing roughly a 30kw difference at the top end with VCT on or off. Is this normal? I want to confirm VCT is working properly. - Should I look into other cam options?  - Should I just keep increasing boost and see if she wakes up later on? I would expect to hit 600rwkw around 35psi with my 6466.
