Looking to take my car back to near on standard ready to sell as it never gets driven any more and i'd lose too much money selling it outright.

So for a lucky RB20 powered R32 owner i'm offering this to you, would much prefer a couple of minor motor mods on your rb20 at this price.

I owe no money on the car so therefore i'm in no rush to sell the car and am willing to take my time and be patient but in saying that i've priced the package up to sell not to dream.

Andrew/Joel: can i please leave this here for a couple of weeks then move it to the 4 sale section?

Basically i'm looking at 2 options for now:

1.) Give me your motor, gearbox, clutch, tailshaft and $7500 and i'll give you my motor, gearbox, clutch and tailshaft. (highly recommended option)

2.) Give me your motor and $5500 and i'll give you my motor

Mods are as follows:

Fully rebuilt Rb30 (has less than 7000kms on clock)

R32 Rb25de head (non vvt), fresh. GTR valve springs. (new valve stem seals etc)

Cleaned and flow tested GTR injectors (600cc injectors at an extra cost)

Z32 AFM

Adjustable cam gears ('aerospeed')

Garret GT35/40 internal wastegate (ford xr6 turbo) With 15 psi actuator

Apexi AP Engineering power fc with hand controller

Custom reground GTR cams

Custom catch can (optional)

no BOV

modified engine mounts

Rb25 Gearbox (91000kms)

Triple plate OS Gieken clutch (1000hp)

Modified tailshaft (to suit rb25 gbox)

(Engine bay i've tried to make look as standard as possible to keep 'prying' eyes away)

Motor is currently making 250rwkw's @ 12psi as seen at last sau dyno day (Boostworx). All thats needed to see 300+rwkw's is the injectors i've given as an option and a boost controller. This is the cheapest way an R32 owner will see 300rwkw's reliably!

Before anyone asks, no this can't be made legal (in an R32) in the eyes of police/regency and that the reason my car isn't over the top and when you pop the bonnet on my car it looks like a stock rb20 to 'most' people, i've had this motor in my car for 2.5 years and haven't had an issue even when it was a daily driver.

I think Adrian (rad33) is interested in this!?

he is but doesn't have the cash at the moment.

By the way the motor is still in the car and will be until i take a deposit so the the prospective buyer can test drive it!

DAMN, this would be a torque monster!

i want it :(

thats the best thing about this motor.

Have had a few pm's about seperating parts, really only want to stick to the two options for now but may contemplate seperating later down the track if i can't get a sale.

Ahh such a pitty. :(

Hardly driven. :P

i know, its killing me and i know i'll probably regret it when its gone but i need to get something more practical, i really wanted to take it down the 1/4 too, hopefully A.I.R's done soon and i can take it for one run!

In all honesty mate, been almost a year since I sold mine and I only miss it occasionaly. I don't miss having to watch my mirror

constantly for cops and all the hassle that goes with it, or the expense of running/insuring it!

Its awesome to drive down the 'bay or town whenever you want and not have to worry about police attention!

Good luck with the sale mate, someone will pick up a bargain

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
