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 seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
