So someone built an engine, is trying to SELL it and doesnt want to justify the price by saying whats in there? No one will buy it. Im sure he has the reciept for the build somewhere. If he cant produce that then just walk away.

his name on here is Jim - turbo rxp. Says its a trust 2.7ltr motor with 946hp at the treads but wont tell me the headwork or other bits that make it up yet expects me to pay top dollar. I do not understand how anyone can try to sell something over $10k and think people will just hand over cash without full details... Also, he cant spell properly or use correct grammar, so i can't always understand what is being said.

So he's a dumbass who wont disclose any information about the motor; Why do you need another reason not to buy it?

Unless he allows a full inspection by an expert then there should be no discussion.

yeah mayb he's just one of those guys who are really really really ridiculously rich... *blue steel pose*, and don't know whats inside it.. if your really interested i would get an expert to go over it..

Oh Performance is in sunshine. Owner is a top bloke named James, pretty legit about his work. Ring 9364 4862 or 0418 170 234

LMAO legit? anyone can sound legit i have been riped off by this guy in the thousandsssssss and charged me for a shit load of crap if anyones going to use him pm me first if you wan know what he did to me.

Its hard to say when you don't know.

From what others have posted around here (it could all be rumour) the car came from Japan with a big motor in it.

So AUS owner wouldnt really have much of an idea about anything (potentially).

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
