so apart from the coilpack, cas, oil pump and sump, is there anything else wrong with it? whats it been in a crash?

will new parts bolt back on or will it be interesting lol

Oil pump died and the car sat idling for about 30/45 min before I realised. Drove it home about 70kms and was fine, no noise from bearings and boosted fine but I changed it with another red top that was lying around at a mate's workshop. Then the engine sat around for a while out of the car and water got into the valley and ruined a coilpack. CAS was swapped out and sump was damaged in the container on the way home from Japan.

Nothing else wrong with it as far as I know. New cas, coilpacks, oil pump, 5 min with a hammer on the sump and you'd probably have a good SR20 for cheap, but then again the bearings might be shot, cams scorched, etc..... who knows, hence the cheap cheap price. The fact that it ran fine afterwards says that it probably isn't all that damaged.

    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
    • thanks GTSboy. My confusion at the moment is i am trying to locate the ignition, ECU battery power and the ECU negative The closest thing i can find is the for the S15 on Page 8 of the Wiring Specialties web page https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9F33_M_GgENQnZ6STMxVmVNd1E/view?resourcekey=0-eZ4nNRwRoqa1qvKlWWHm8A I cannot find the same diagram for the R33 RB25DET Series 2 dash plug pin out.... Do you know what the Pins? or know where i can find the same pinout diagram for the RB dash plug? Thanks for the advice on the box... i like a 6 speed so might be on the lookout or the box now.. a topic of discussion for another post...
    • Will have a look at that. I cant see any leaks 
    • Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.
    • Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
