Who wants to do my stats analysis work for me? Base level stuff so we have to show all working instead of just plugging it into a nice big spreadsheet full of macros.

need a R32 cluster. dont care what version of the car just needs to be R32.

about to fix up someones expensive mistake and I need a second black gauge overlay..

need the whole black backing plate.

need to do big cruises more often.

my tank is still on about an 1/8 and im just about to hit the 500km mark :happy:. thats better than ive had for a while

Good luck finding a real 200ZR however. Weren't they rare as hens teeth?

Also, beyond rarity what did the ZR have over the ZX? I'd probably prefer the VG30 over an RB20

torque would be the difference from my point of view.

Boz - I really only bought it to save it from being wrecked... he wasn't going to keep it in one piece much longer. When your insurance is sorted out if you're interested, happy to talk :).

Also, C31 laurel, Y31 cima/cedric/gloria, A31 cefiro... I'm sure there is more :P

Chris - Sorry mate only just got your message. It's already here, and I don't really want to drive it until the rego is changed over. You're welcome to come round and have a look if you like, I should be home all arvo. I'll call you a bit later.

Wouldn't an RB20 have considerably less tourque than a VG30?

And Smity, buy them all ;) I shall then dub you Mr 31! And we shall talk when insurance gets sorted. If it ever gets sorted... I was promised an answer by 5pm Friday. No answer as yet...

Did some digging. From the factory the RB20DET had more or less the same power as the VG30ET (one or two HP difference) but 15nm more tourque. I guess the 4valves per cylinder and higher boost/addition of an intercooler really make all the difference.

Where have all the cheap S chassis cars gone? Can't find a turbo, manual S13/S14/180SX for under about $5-6k. Looking on Carsales, Nissan Silvia, Hard Tuned, Boost and here...

    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox !
