colin need your epic detailing skills to buff it out. :D

Yachts normally go for more than that, probably needs some work for it to be sea worthy....

as for 31 coilovers, JIC did actually make coilovers for 31's. Also plenty of Datsun shops make coilovers from R31 struts.......

but yer, i'd still love a 1970 C10 GTR skyline.

If it was sold I wonder how much was the selling price...

for that price... You can get a VERY nice M-Spec/V-Spec2 Nur... or maybe top up a lil and get a Z-tune or a 35gtr...

as for 31 coilovers, JIC did actually make coilovers for 31's. Also plenty of Datsun shops make coilovers from R31 struts.......

Technically, the stock suspension ARE coilovers :) just not height adjustable. As you well know, those JIC ones are 20 years old and shit.

Making height adjustable coilovers from the standard strut, yeah it works, but I consider that 'custom'. Also, you still need decent inserts then to run in them, and you lose wheel clearance.

I know where there is a shell of a white FD sitting, its been there for 2 years now, sitting right next to the road nothing stopping it goin missing either

rotarys are easy, boost in apex out, rebuild and repeat. haha

anyone got a clue how to TIG weld here?

get me a tig and ill teach myself, i know the basic principles.

ps: marto that vid is f**king hilariousness TRACTOOOOR !!!

and u learn something new everyday: cows go moo when the poo LAWL

Yea I finished reading the whole thing but basically the main thing I've learnt is 1.3l twin rotary is actually 3.9l in displacement. And you cant really compare piston and rotary.

yer rotarys arent as bad as they are made out to be, boost them hard and not build them right and they will give you nothing but trouble, a properly built one with moderate levels of boost last ok. Like 1000Hp from a 1.3 litre engine is crazy and no doubt will give you issues, same as trying to pump that level of power from a RB engine.

Yer dave im teaching myself how to MIG weld, funny thing is my missus can weld better than me :) i will get a TIG once i learn the mig.

martin, get the falcoon and a trailer and i will show you where it is :P

    • Yeah, Duncan is helping sell me back to Android devices. I've hated the whole Android head units due to their speed issues. Even in my old Hyundai Kona (2022 model), it behind the scenes was Android, and slow and shitty to start up. Once running wasn't bad, but still a good 15 to 30 seconds.
    • My roof rails are off atm on the E39 until the rust is fixed. I did find another little bit of surface rust under the rails when I took them off. As @soviet_merlin said I'd just leave them alone unless you're planning on ensuring they're properly sealed. I was on the fence about leaving them off as the delete is still a thing in BMW E39's but I feel like the car is missing something (er, it is, der) with them off and I'm looking forward to putting them back on.
    • Man, I miss having a phone that fits into my hand!  
    • The speed this thing starts up is making me want to replace my old one. Though my old one immediately kicks into reverse camera as soon as reverse is engaged, it's clearly not part of the android system. For everything else though, starting up, connecting to hotspot, opening maps, starting music in spotify is easily a ~2 minute affair.
    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
