hey,

unfortunately i am going to have to sell my car. After 14 months of getting it on the road and completed, some stupid cop has just destroyed all that work....... Getting a fine, for power to weight, use of a modified vehicle....

I am not going to be able to drive the car for 2 years so i guess its better off going to someone else.

The specs are.

- yellow S13 nissan silvia 85,000 k's

- sunroof

- rb25det motor with r33 turbo gearbox 70,000 k's.

- new daiken 5 puk brass button clutch

- custom 1 piece tailshaft

- custom gearbox mount and engine mounts

- modified sump so doesn't hit sway bar.

- new bosch 040 fuel pump

- new hks hipower exhaust, 3 inch cat, 3 inch front pipe

- hks style front mount intercooler, with 3 inch alloy piping, tig welded....

- custom throttle body moved to front of plenum

- polished plenum and cam covers.

- new timing belt, new waterpump, new cam cover gaskets, new oil cooler gaskets....

- new pod air filter with stainless steal flange

- Japanese dish style 16 inch rims, fat 225 advan semi slick tyres on the back.

- Limited slip LSD is very tight.

- flat

i would not even have driven the car for more than two tanks worth of petrol. So every bolt on is like new.

I will also throw in a painted gtr rear wing and a set of r33 front rotors for a brake upgrade.

Thers probly more stuff i have forgotten about the car, so any serious people interested let me know.

I am getting the defect off for the sale of the car, but it will not come with engineers certificated. Lot have time and effort has gone into this conversion, and i am pretty pissed off.

cheers

i do have lots of pictures through the conversion, but i'll try and get some of it all completed.

p.s

car owes me over 25 grand. serious offers only thanks

in sth east suburbs of melb.

good question....

I cant put a price on it, as it owes me too much both money and countless hours spent. I have had an offer of 14 but thats a little too low.

theres a few more bits and pieces that i forgot to mention. Suspension is some aftermarket stuff. not too sure on name though, has a boost gauge, and battery has been moved to boot.

if serious send us a pm, and more than willing to discuss price. but i cant really name a price... too hard.

i will not be offended by any offers...

it doesn't have coil overs. i am trying to upload pics here....

the interior i am tidying up, but not a big drama to get done. The wiring is all done, just a mtter of bolting computer in place.

getting the speedo and temp gauge to work, is the real last thing.

Ooops sorry.

Seems a shame to be spending so much time on a car and then sell it:( Probably better off stocking it out and selling it as a stocker - give you some nice bits for your next project.

Good luck with the sale.

      Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
