up for sale is my baby ive only owned for 6 months, bought it stock from a guy who was in the Army and i am the 3rd owner (with the sales recepits to prove it). the last owner had it for 11 years and the owner before that abviously since new. All the mods have happened ion my short ownership. Genuine reason for sale, the salvation Army cruise (some may remember) i didnt stop at a stop sign while trying to avoid the police, unfortunately that cost me 3 points and inevitably my license (letter should be here any day).

I may trade for an import for a slightly smaller price as id love to have something new to fiddle with over the 6 month loss, and i miss my silvia. something along the 180/S13/r32/r33 line is where im thinking. the car isnt perfect, but the kms are genuine and for the age of the car it is in very good nic, a credit to its two previous owners. A few little scratches inside the door panels are the main problem and unless your a perfectionist i doubt you would notice. It is awesome on fuel, about $30 of ultimate will fill the tank for 400-450kms and insurance is cheap as well.Anyway a bit more info on the car

overall the car is a great package and all it really needs is some of the parts i have fitted and some form of LSD to finsish it off. buyer wont be dissappointed, the car is a lot of fun and something different on SA roads. Pm me with any questions at all about the car, no hassles at all. here are a few pics of it. any questions feel free to ask. im willing to sell less some of the mods as i still have all the stock parts, pending what you dont want well go from there

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4

      S15 Spec R

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
