cool thanks mate,

Heaps of different opinions from different people regarding what its worth, and just looking for a rough estimate of price for parts from ppl on here?

I see good working ones going for $4500, so just wondering what I should list mine for sale as?

as ALOT of people will ask, whats wrong with it?

If its just something simple as bearing, freshen up and its good - expect half of a good condition motor.

if its anything more that may require pretty much everything new, and the only usable parts are the head and block, all internals need replacing, i wouldnt be holding my breath for much.

Hate to sound vague but it is only worth what people are willing pay. so don't hope for much put it on ebay with an asking price you think is fair and just keep dropping it till you get some bites.

have you pulled the engine down? ring lands are the common failure on stock rb engines but how do you know for sure?

but without photos and professional assessment not a lot of people are gonna take the punt considering more damage may have resulted. eg damaged bore, bits may have sucked into the oil pump, rod damage etc.

    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
