Hey everyone,

I'm thinking of selling my drift car - its just not getting enough use and its pretty stiff for a daily drive. I bought it off Fatz who also helped me set it up :(

Its a 1987 r31 Skyline sedan (Aussie delivered)

Manual

Red

S13 Silvia front brakes

Coilovers (They are HD system mid range ones, can't remember the name)

Adjustable steering arms

Sparco wheels

Recaro seats (ok, they are fakes but work well and meet the regulations)

Autotechnica Steering wheel

The chrome is painted black - awesome.

S3 round tail lights and all the rear stuff the match (looks WAY better)

All the gauges work, but the odometer and trip thingo don't.

2 1/2 inch exhust and hi flow cat (extractors come with the car, but are not fitted right now)

11 months NSW rego.

To drift properly you'd need to weld / LSD / locker the diff and give it a touch more power (maybe a nos shot). Even as it is it slides like a champ, really well balanced and easy to control :)

Its got a few minor dents and scuffs but has been my daily for over 18 months and hasn't let me down. The gearbox and diff both seem in good conditon, and the engine is strong.

Would consiber swaps to equal cash value, it'd have to be manual and rear wheel drive though. :(

So, make me an offer if you are keen. Just PM me or give me a call.

0418 666 332.

Cheers!!!

Hi Anthony, good to see WB. You going to come back to the fold? Missed your posting dude.

It was good to see you way back when Jayce and I came down your way and had beers. Shame we never got the plan off the drawing board would have been most awesome.

See 20 or so have checked your post, Good Luck.

Dont be a stranger to the forums K!

Hey man!!!!!!

Long time no see. Glad to hear you are well, hows the 32 going.

I'm looking at buying another mid yearish. I want a worked R32 for the track / street. Something like yours acutally would be great :laugh:

Cool, would be cool to see another R31 drifting. I was only going to wreck it cos i need bits for my other R31 :blink:.

I've got a RB25 in my R32 as well, rev so nice but not as torque-y as the RB30.

Edited by StinkyPoo

Its way too nice for wrecking. Its pretty well set up, and the motor is fine - I'd even consider slapping a turbo on it.

I was offered 3k today, but I just don't know if I want to sell it, she's so much fun.

But an R32 GTargh keep calling me.

Stupid freaking timewasters.

I had two buyers - knocked one back to sell to the other, then got jerked around.

Anyhow, still for sale. I think $3500ish is fair - its a pretty good car and slides well. Come on, you know you want it :)

Just to throw my .2 cents in, this is a great car who would make anyone who bought it a happy camper, I've been in this car a few times and she defininately could pull a skid if that was your thing. Good Luck with the sale!!

    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
