Swap for my car plus cash your way? Check the link on my signature for more info.

Also, does this car have the pop-up sat nav factory option and dual zone climate control? And how many ks has the motor done? Anything remotely wrong with it that I should know about--any leaks, rattles etc.?

Pretty interested...

It does have the factory sat nav and dual zone climate control. The only thing is, I haven't converted

it to english. It's done 48000 kms. The only thing wrong with it is the front bumper. No leaks or rattles.

I get it serviced at Lister Automotive in Belmont. If you are interested in having a look at each others cars,

maybe we can catch up during the week or next weekend. I had a look at the photo's of your car. It looks

pretty tidy. Talk to you soon.

Ah ok, well we can have more of a chat once we see each others cars.

The body on my car is completely straight and hasn't been in any accidents in the 5 years that I've owned it. Front bar has a small lower lip crack though and body needs little touching up in a few areas. Other than that, the car is mechanically fine and runs well in the current state of tune (297rwkw@5800rpm/17.5psi). Engine has travelled around 8000kms since I've had it rebuilt so it's well and truly worn in and ready for the final tune with the new ECU. Minor oil changes and maintenance is done by me and major servicing, tuning and everything else is always performed at A.R.T. in West Heidelberg.

I would be willing to bring the car for you to have a look/test drive but the gearbox is currently in the process of being replaced due to the input shaft bearing getting noisy and 5th gear crunching more frequently. I've ordered a new gearbox from Japan over 2 months ago and the container has finally arrived in Melb last week. We still can't empty it until the middle of next week unfortunately so I won't be able to organise anything with you until possibly the week after once the new box has been installed. Price will still stay the same ($17,500) once this is done.

However, the new ECU (Power FC) and new boost controller (AVC-R) which has not been installed and tuned isn't factored into the price as of yet. I'll sell the car as is at the current price which is negotiable without these 2 items and without the Work rims. Or the price will be slightly revised if they are to be fully installed and tuned (Power FC=$1200, AVC-R=$700 is what I paid for these two parts and also tuning is roughly another $1000).

Let me know what your thoughts are and the cash adjustment amount you are wanting. I'll get back to you once the gearbox is done. Will be in touch very soon.

Hey Guys,

Just wanted to see if there was any interest. Thinking of getting a new bumper and keeping the car because there

doesn't seem to be anyone interested. Let me know.

Cheers

Not for sale anymore due to lack of interest and too many wankers. I'm better off keeping it than getting f**ked around.

:)

was in the same boat when i was selling my V35 end of last year; everyone for some reason things that V35 can be brought for free !!!!

understand that there is too many if them for sale considering the target market for imports

Look for a bumper in Import monster and get a red one, if you have the patience you will find one eventually, so you can fit it your self

Ignore above post about it not being for sale anymore. Momentary brain fade. It's definitely still up for sale. The things

you say when you take too much panadol and mix it with beer lol.

    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
    • There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
