just take spe spark plugs out and crank it for a minute or 2 in a couple of intervals, then their is no compression on the bearings. put them back in and fire it up

sounds like abit of a headach just to go for a drive but oh so worth it..

i guess i'll just have to leave the coil pack cover off to access the spark plugs.

RB26:

Disconnect the crank angle sensor (sits at the front where the letters RB26 is)

Turn the key

Let it crank

^^^^ Exactly, disconnecting the CAS will be doing the same thing as taking the plugs out, except d/c the CAS will take about 10 seconds compared to however long to pull the plugs out

I was a bit more padantic with my old RB20. it had only been sitting for 7 months but I still to the rocker cover off and added a lil oil to each cylinder before starting it. Then I changed the oil..

what about the fuel in the tank, if its old and would have lost its octane, is it safe to start car?? same as bad batch of fuel?? will there be detonation/knocking with fuel thats sits in the tank too long?

me and a couple of my mates had a old gz10 soarer that hadnt been driven in like 9 yrs...it took us ages to get it going, the fuel pump ended up being stuffed, but we replaced alot of stuff ,event ot the extent of pulling the fuel tank out and cleaning it out, when we went to drive it and as the clutch was let out it disintegrated ......on pulling the gearbox out we found a steel case twin turbo supra box, worth alot more than the car was acually purchased for
