Extra Information:

up for sale is my c32 Laurel, its a 1988 model similar to the import R31.

-four door pillarless model with good condition red velvet style interior.

-s13 suspension conversion

-was auto but this one has had a full conversion to manual to suit RB20DET gearbox and has tail shaft to suit.

it will come with (2) rb20e engines (factory standard- no mod plates), one installed, one spare. both in great running condition.

the engine fitted is from a C33 laurel meaning its the updated version and was brought with 82xxxkms

the engine was complete with all fresh bay accessories, it has fusebox, power steer and aircon pumps,

alternator absolutely everything from the engine bay including piping and wiring.

Has full interior and exterior and some OEM mud flaps and a fresh pair of corner indicators on their way from Japan.

It is ready for the air con lines to be connected and computer wiring to be hooked up by a sparky or experienced person

(all parts supplied!)

to have it running it needs a little wiring and a/c gas and a rb20det gearbox and you have a complete and very rare cruise

car with decent suspension and tonnes of style

BACKGROUND

just so people know the c32 was available in Japan, the UK and NZ with a variety of engines with the rb20e the most common.

i dont want to speculate on the numbers on the streets but id guess less then 100 in AU and only knowing of about 7 in qld

I have been in this car running etc as it was part of a car club im involved with then sold to a guy who wanted to do an sr20det

conversion so decided to pull it apart and didnt get to finish it. so i got it before it went to scrap, sourced and engine which was

pretty bare then when sourcing parts i found the complete setup currently installed. I haven't quite finished it yet but have run out

of time and need the space for project cars and now it needs to move on. it honestly wouldn't take much to finish but i have 50+hr

working weeks and no time to work on this.

it is rolling, and transportable, i can organise delivery to the buyer just contact me for details.

grab a piece of Japanese memorabilia that actually had parts available without making Frankenstein parts combinations

needs to go quick so $1400 Firm

    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
    • I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.
    • Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.
