yellow rb25det silvia regretful sale.


Recommended Posts

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

p.s

car owes me over 25 grand. serious offers only thanks

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...

    • Slap a 460L into the car, send its mum.  
    • So last night pulling away from the lights, I lost power for about 1 second. Bit weird, but I kept driving... 5 minutes later the pump completely dies. When I tried to start the car, the pump won't even prime.  I left the car for about an hour, tried to start it and it all appeared fine. Pump primed, car started, got the fuel pressure I should have.... Start driving home, 5 minutes later it dies again. I'm stuck in a shit spot this time going up hill with a car right behind me, so I just let the car continue to turn over while praying to the fuel pump gods. After about 2 minutes of turning the engine over, the fuel pump came back to life and I got home (only about another 5 min away).  So I've been digging around online, it seems like the 525 fuel pumps really don't like to be run at 100% all the time. I've found quite a few examples online of people killing their Walbro 525 pumps within about a year of usage when they are run without PWM.  So, my pump is an Aeroflow 525 (AF49-1057) and I've been running it at 100% without PWM. I'm thinking the Aeroflow 525 didn't like being run at 100% and has burnt itself up.  I really am sick of dealing with fuel pump issues, my current thoughts are -  1. Use a Walbro 450 and run it without PWM. It seems like these pumps hold up pretty well to being run at 100% all the time. I only make about 350kw and can't see me making any more power any time soon so this is probably a fine option.  2. Get a Walbro 525, run it with PWM. I know doing this will annoy me as I feel like with only 350kw, its extra expense that I don't "need" and I'll be thinking the whole time while setting it up that I should have gone with option 1. I know I'll be happy with this option when its setup and running, its only the initial setup frustration and cost as an issue.  3. Get a Walbro BKS1001 brushless pump. This is the fu*k it I'm already going PWM, might as well go full retard. This option just seems better in every way, with the only downside being cost. But I don't know much about this pump so I could be wrong.  Happy to get everyone's thoughts before I go digging around in the fuel tank again. 
    • Doing it this weekend. For sure this time. Thank you forum gods.  And im running map sensor now with the haltech. Still have the AFMs attached to the mushroom dome shaped air filter things
    • Actually, it is probably pretty legit. I mean, it's still woke feminazi bullshit academia, but you would have to agree that it is very likely that there would be a correlation between wanting a loud exhaust and scoring at the unpleasant end of the scales for dark triad personality traits. The fact that they found it didn't correlate with narcissism and only with psychopathy and sadism definitely shows that the loud exhaust thing is more of a "f**k you" than a "look at me", and I reckon that rings pretty close to most of the dickheads who take it to the extreme. Remember, this is correlation with tendency to be closer to one end of a personality trait scale than the other end. Of course someone who is at the literal opposite end of the psychopathy scale is going to be so considerate of others that they wouldn't even think about wanting to upset anyone with a loud exhaust. So the finding isn't that "you are a psychopath". Just that you score more towards that end of the scale than someone who doesn't like loud exhausts (on average, not necessarily even for specific individuals).
    • Blitz ER34 at some point hopefully, should be allowed in Gr3 if they do.
