i take public transport when i go out, and i would most likely take the territory on long road trips if im planning on going beach etc because the skylines a tad bumpy and loud, so this leaves the line for going to and from work etc. i work for my old man.. work exemption?

That shit you listed will take half a day to do.

Theres a reason why r32's are selling cheap and you have to be pretty silly to buy one and not expecting to work on it.

Go buy a Toyota Corolla if you dont want any hassles

Patrick, want to work on it and see if it take you half day to do...

And these above aren't the full list of things need to do...

Sorry to hear the motor may be gone, my advice, get another motor and whack it in, easy fix.

If it's bearings, except $5k upwards as you'll need to do it while you're at it...

good work

did you get a new photo on your p's

ive managed to keep all my licence photos

leaners

p's

full licence

full licence

its ace

I had my P's one for 7 years, the made me get a new photo last license renewal :(

I remember someone mentioning driving into guardrail at 90km/h and the damage on 31 was bugger all.

That's my first R31 you're talking about. 90kmp/h into a guardrail did this (no, I wasn't driving):

I loved that car.

R31's are excellent cars, nearly indestructable, plenty of power, cheap and reliable. Just what a P Plater needs.

When/if mines goes I'll be putting a 34 neo in there, $1800 + install. Pickup a little more power at the same time.

Building an engine for a street car is like masturbating with sandpaper, somewhat enjoyable at the time. But later on when you goto use it again, its gonna hurt like a bitch.

Its defiantly from the bottom end? Something hasnt come off the clutch and its knocking..? Pulling straws I know, but you can only hope...

If I want it to be 100%, I'll need to piss at least 10k on it.

I need to piss the dynamat off, previous owner had it covered in boot including 4wd and HICAS ecu... Stereo wiring to be binned, sound deadener removed, louder exhaust required, new wheels, 100k service, rip the hicas off, list goes on...

LOL! @ Dynamat sound padding shit.

Why did you buy the car if it needed so much work?

Sidz? 0.o

Skidz Yo!

:laugh:

set it high, trawl for offers

mm ae86 ey...

so just to clarify, the rb20de minus T option is a no go, correct?

Yeah AE86 boys want top dollar for Corolla's.

Takumi Tax!

if i was a p plater.... 4age ae86/ke70/ae71 or R31

mx5's are fkn cool... BUT only cool once slammed and fitted so hard that petit would actully bar up if you drove past him

R31 would be nice for a change.

I want Kriss R31.

Looks awesome!

do you mean rb20det and remove the turbo to avoid the power to weight rule ?

if this is what you mean - if you remove the turbo it is still a gtst skyline and still registered as turbocharged from factory etc, so its technically over the power to weight rule. ie they dont weigh your car and then dyno it to see if you exceed the power/weight rule, they go off factory specs. so you could get a 6litre v8 with a blown motor that makes 10rwkw and its still be over power/weight (from the factory specs)

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
