I had ask a compliance shop since you changed a engine before fitting a compliance plate your car in un-compliable in QLD may be its different in your state and I would like to offer you $8000 for it as a track car i got another spare engine let me know $$ ready

pm has been sent. like i say to anyone who pms me or replys to the thread! THERES A NUMBER THERE FOR A REASON IF YOUR GENUINELY INTRESTED CALL IT! simple as that cheers.

Very interested at this price. Will you guarantee it can be complied? What import paperwork do you have? Have you checked that the ring landings have not lunched the turbo's on the way out? Who did the import?

Thanks

Forgot to mention, that you mentioned..... " the car still can complied with a diffrent engine theres just a diffrent way of going about it!". Can you explain what this process is? Sorry I can't ring you to discuss, I am actually on a boat in the middle of the ocean and the Sat Phone is a bit pricey.

Thanks :geek:

mate theres too much to explain but the car can be registerd and complied either way if your that intrested you will call and find out about it. no offence but i wont take no one serious untill i get a genuine caller or someone comes to inspect the car coz ive had plenty of people stooge me around as you can see. cheers

Hi Loky,

I buy lots of things sight unseen while on the boat working, my unit, just about everything in it AND my last car, but I am having some reservations about your unwillingness to answer any of my questions on the forum. This usually indicates somethings wrong.....As I can't phone you and my only avenue to ask you questions is on this forum, I will give you another go at answering my questions if your really want to sell the car and have nothing to hide.

Thanks again

Hi there - obviously you imported this under SEVS, in which case a specific RAWS has applied for the compliance plates on your behalf.

Can you advise who this is, so that interested customers can confirm with this compliance workshop that they WILL guarantee that the car can be complied? For instance, what chance the buyer will spend $5K on an engine rebuild (in and out for an RB26DETT is usually $1K by itself - unless you can also quote the workshop who'll do it for $2K).

No offense mate - but if it is likely to cost $2K to comply and $2K to fix the engine and you reckon it's worth $20K, then costs aside you'd net $16K ($20-2-2). However, as you'll probably only get about $9K as it is (I'd be budgeting $3K with RISK for the compliance, and $5K for the engine....nobody cares about it being R33 Series 3), plus $1K for on roads - meaning $9K in costs, and seriously - even then you'd only sell it for $17K anyway in this market. So if you can get $9K from some one, take it, because it will cost you $9K extra anyway.

I will make a genuine cash offer of $7000 conditional upon certain details, such as name of compliance agent, whether he'll honour your $500 deposit (as this is a contract he has with you, and not the buyer) - I'm not even sure you can dispose of the car without compliance - check an import approval, I think it says this. If I can't get compliance (hence it's only a track car), my offer is for $4K only.

I'll also offer you a swap for an FC3 RX7 turbo coupe if you're interested.

Cheers,

Jessie

    • The attached document is fine. I just downloaded & opened it.
    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
