OK i might have to sell this un-completed. I have had this car getting built up for some time now and may have to part with it as the bank is telling me i need something newer. I have never even seen this car let alone driven it, im in WA and its in QLD. I baught this from a SAU member 6 months ago. Im very sad to have to do this, after such a long wait all i want to do is drive it.

Its at Gavin Wood Autotech on the gold coast now having the motor put together, just waiting on some final parts and then its ready to go.

It then needs to go back to the panel beaters and have the front end put back together (Had the bay resprayed).

Then needs to be complied.

I have prices on all remaining work and have organized it all (please call for more details)

Car details are:

99 Series 2

Pearl white

Stock rims, kit etc

HKS coilover's, exhuast, pods.

Parts included:

Forged Pistons

Forged Rods

Trust cams

Trust Head gasket

Tomei sump baffel

Tomie oil restrictor

2 x new Garret 2860-7's

All new gaskets through out

N1 oil pump

Excedy Cerametalc clutch

Block has been machined

crank balanced etc

All new parts

The engine needs final assembly and some parts still to be paid for.

Basically if someone wants to take over from where i have left off im happy to let it go, WILL NOT SEPERATE PARTS.

There is roughly one months work to go, so if someone was looking at importing a 260RS for the same time frame you can get one with a built motor and new turbo's etc.

Im looking at around 30k as it sits now, im open to offers please call for more details as its hard to descride what im offering.

Forgot to put in the original post will sell for $35,000FIRM with the only thing new buyer would need to pay for would be complience, which i have a price on.

Or $30,000ono and the new owner takes over as it is now.

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
