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 question then becomes - was there any fluid coming from that hole before you did the rebuild ?    You may not have noticed, of course.   Depending on how you did the rebuild, the possibility has to be considered that somehow (cleaning ?)  fluid entered that hole and is now being 'forced'  out by small movements of the proportioning valve.   From the factory, there's actually a small rubber plug in that hole but with age and under-bonnet heat it's quite common for it to 'go missing'.  That rubber plug is designed to allow the venting process but also to prevent 'stuff' getting to the area (prevent corrosion, etc).   The plug is also not available as a spare part AFAIA. Personally I wouldn't race and buy a new master just yet but keep an eye on the area to see if the 'leak' continues.   If you're concerned about brake fluid damaging nearby paintwork, cable tie a piece of suitable absorbant material over the hole and remove/monitor occasionally.    Operation of the proportioning valve and the brake master itself won't be affected, but also keep an eye on brake fluid level, of course. In terms of a new master, the genuine part is getting expensive, unfortunately.  Amayama is showing AUD900+.   I was searching recently and there's an aftermarket part available from Japan made by 'Parts Assist': https://zenmarket.jp/en/yahoo.aspx?q=BNR32%2bBM50&p=1 Whether it's any good I have no idea, although in my experience Japanese aftermarket stuff is pretty good quality-wise.   The above site allows overseas buyers to purchase stuff more easily from Japan but there are fees and shipping costs, of course.   The original Japanese seller page is here: https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p1197401228 Copper/Nickel is fine but I still prefer bundy tube and it's also cheaper.
