of course it was imported haha, i did the import myself, you can't get them anymore though...

122xxxkm... it's a turbo convert - so originally was a non turbo. suck2bu!

haha

plus - id be happy to ship it over to you and alter price to fit your budget, butttttttt i dont think you would be able to get it registered over in NSW man sorry

Ohh really? Why don't you think it could be registered? But anyway Damnn, I have to say your car looks mint!

oh but it is my dear :miner:

thanks man...

ummm i don't know??? i'm not from NSW so i don't know how "transferral of ownership" goes down over there... i'm only going on assumption though... and i'm not about to pressure you into buying it then going to all this struggle to freight it to you (within your budget of course) only to have your spirits hopes n dreams crushed by the gubberment, you know?

i mean, i'd love for you to have the car no doubt... and i'd work out something price wise to cater for freight cos i know what it's like when you're a new driver, you want something wicked...

if you can sort out rego somehow or call your gaverning body... i think it's RTA or something... sort it out with them n give it some thought!

EDIT - wait it's turbo... can't have it haha... i had all the nonturbo parts to convert but i have probably chucked them in the bin hey sorry mate!

If your registering a car in NSW from interstate it has to be deregistered and blueslipped, same process as if it had been out of rego for 3 months or more. Not fun :P

$7K is too much for an auto NA Silvia too. I'd steer clear of an auto Silvia no matter how cheap it is, the manuals are a much nicer car, and thats coming from someone who wishes they had a manual somedays from driving a triple plate in Newi! Another vote for something like a SSS, not bad cars. My mate had an N14 SSS as a first car, went alright but they have a very cheap and nasty interior. My NA Celica was quicker tho :) I'd pocket the left over cash until you can get something turboed, the NA Silvia's/Supras/Skylines etc aren't all that fantastic especially considering the massive price premium on them with the current p plater laws.

      Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.

      List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter?

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By tylink720 · Posted

      @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
