Well im getting the complete engine from Perth..

Was going to go with the bare engine in an Adelaide wreckers but after speaking to them wasnt happy with what they had to say etc. Could compression test it, had no idea the amount of kms its done, not even sure if it ran fine before removal. Asked what happens if i put it in and its a crap engine. They said that fine bring it back and we will swap it for another one. lol you think im putting an engine in, then removing it again then putting another in etc etc lol.

So yer should be here end of the week....

But now my mechanic has to have a hernia op... lol cant win!! (poor guy tho!)

Fingers crossed all works out ok...

Sounds about right for a few around Adelaide...

Was reali disapointed in the way they handled it. oh well....

Hey anyone got any ideas what i should get for a stock as a rock 33 GTR?? LIke stock as in stock, wheels, stock, exhaust, stock computer etc etc

Yeah, most people would get scared if they read "spun bearing" or "engine blown"

Not neccessarily cause they can rebuild it to what they want and the new owner knows what's in it..The only trouble is getting a decent price :P

I see you have two threads running Adz :P

    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, i will do abit more digging. I am missing a blue relay near the ECU connector... so i will chase that up in the next few days as well  
    • https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
