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.

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.

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!!

      It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪

      And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil

      Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.

      Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.
