I suppose if it was in the boot now, the car would be a 5.5L single turbo. *thinks* RB55QET?

Matt i am not blind, 15yo imports are a good idea, but just remember these cars do not come road worthy or registered may need new tyres and even need money spent on them to get them to road worthy standard. The car may cost 7-8 grand to buy, but mostly they say have another 1500 bucks to spend on the car when it gets here. Plus that his car has to sit on the docks in japan for another 5-6 months and then be shipped over here which may take even more time.

But if he is willing to wait HELL YES TO THE 15YO IMPORT.

So who has the best car around CQ i know a fella with a skyline and noone has beaten him in gladstone yet so it must be pretty good might be a 32 GTR not sure

Yeah its pretty hard to judge who has the best car in CQ cause there a lots of different ideas of who has the best car.

I know that this is a skylines forum and all, BUT, I am working on a car at the moment, a 1966 VC valiant, and hopefully when JC Performance Engineering (HE HE HE) are finished with the car it will be able to peel of some pretty decend numbers down that 1/4 mile strip of road. Now the car wont stop, turn or handle but i dont want it to.

I actually looked into getting a 15 year old gtr through prestige and their method of storage was leaving the car on the docks under a car cover! The guy from prestige actually said if the car is under a cover no one will be interested in it and that they are

behind a six foot wire fence so they are in has words 'safe' from theft. My personal opinion is the guy smokes way to many cigarettes with blue veins in them.

Yeah i need to get my monthy fix at the drags if you read the bully. But yea there just might be a gun metal grey 32 at the drags on the 16th. we need heaps of people to come for the drive to the beach on sunday. makes for more fun. should we do parilla or go to that thai place next where Mrs rick works?

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow

    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
