This car HAS NOT been complied for registration as yet but is not hard to do. (Generally allow $300-$500).

Often wonder about statements like this. If it's not hard to do or not expensive, why doesn't the seller do it?

Anyway it will be an interesting auction to watch.

Nah I love it!!

Thought it maybe needed a touch more stretch and low. Oh and is crying out for vitaloni style mirrors.

Mk1's I'm also a fan. Maybe a little less aggressive on the front if it was road rego'd..

Oil cooler with big wanky lines out the front if kept track only.

Still a mad car as it sits. I was thinking maybe 8k max depending on how good the paint job is.

Tis a pretty colour too, ive always wanted candy apple red with pearl-gunmetal grey lower with metallic gold GTR rims.

if it was compiled, regoed, ready to run without anything to do on it, I'd consider $10k, but would have to be ' complete package' drive away.

Absolutely stunning.

With this comment it's obvious where your tastes lie eh!

Mags states "candy apple red" hummmmmmmmmmmmmm not to me it's not. The candy apple reds I have seen are bright and vibrant, which this is not.

The flairs are very incomplete, looks like it's a project that's run out of money to me, because the flairs need the large side skirts & front air dam that Jenesis does & maybe the rear bar as well to finish them off and rear spoiler looks like an S54 style tacked on.

At 10k it's a lot of money to have to throw more dollars at to finish the exterior & then compliance and rego etc etc etc.

Before anyone even slightly contemplates this vehicle, they would want to have the engine and body numbers checked to see if it's compliable at all, or was it imported as a non compliable race/rally car.

Cheers, D

Very good Jarryd! You finally got something that looks a treat and you did absolutely nothing to make it that way. From the short time I have known of your existence, everyone I talk to that knows you, has told me you have NEVER completed a project, so what's going to happen to this. This is about 80% a good thing, but for sure it will never be 100% in your care and maybe not 81% :P:P

Keep tuned folks, this will be for sale again soon, when he finds a Lightburn Zeta with a 427 Corvette up front in pink.

THIS CAR IS VERY QUICK AND IS NOT FOR INEXPERIENCED DRIVERS

Obviously this was never an option to consider?????

I thought this might be more up your alley of choice.

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
