Previous Owner. Burnt R34 4 Door

[Silo_Wagon]

Hey Guys and Girls,

Just recently purchased a R34 4 door from auction in Adelaide.

Just curious if the previous owner is on here, as i wouldnt mind some details on the car.

Description.

Silver R34 4 Door

Heavyly burnt. Front to rear

RB25 neo, 5 Speed

17x8 and 17x9 AVS wheels

3 or possibly 3.5inch stainless catback.

The rest of the car is pretty well stock.

Anyone know of the owner? or if your on here, would be great to have a talk with ya.

Cheers Dan

Also interested.

Between $1000 and $1500. Yea that sounds stupid just say actual cost but id rather not. but its between those figures.

As for the PM i got regarding the Neo turbo, i dont have 10 psosts and cant reply. I have removed it, has minimal shaft play and all feels good, when i inspected the impeller it looks like 1 of the blades is slightly distorted, i will look again, and possibally send it off to be checked by a specialist and or have a new impeller put on it.

Looking around $450 has actuator and elbow.

keen on selling whole engine and box?

[MissR34]

The shell is badly burnt. not worth re using, will be scrapped.

The box is going behind my RB20 in my r31.

The motor has had the engine cover melted. yet to look under it. will be a good head, cams and block. so perfect if some blows a neo up and needs a short motor, or has a heavily modified one and wants to just bolt their aftermarket items on

don't know how hot it got, but goodluck prying the head off the block......I've lifted a whole car in the air with big block & tackle trying to lift an alloy head off a cast block (also in a fire) many years ago.......smashed it off in the end and stuffed the block in the process

Cheers for the hinter.

surely the fire wasnt hot enough to warp and twist the chassis? stripping it back to chassis and rebuilding the entire thing from scratch should still be viable (unless the heat munted the metal)

[Damo_R34]

not worth it Dohmar, might as well scrap it and put the parts into an already half finished 33. youd never get the burnt smell out of the car

yeah, getting an alloy head of a cast block after a blown head gasket is hard enough, let alone a fire

+1

About the only thing I could think of is if you had a track/drift car you totalled and needed a new shell...
