I thought all post r31 na skylines had double overhead cams, but maybe not!

A transplant maybe?

They dropped the RB20E for the R34s and made the base model a RB20DE, but the 33 definitely had it. This particular example looks terrible anyway. Even if I was in the market for a non turbo Skyline, 120,000 Yen is far too much for this sticker covered and crash damaged car. I wonder how it sold for so much?

I cant believe how unfamiliar with Skylines some of the "enthusiasts" are here.

And quite clearly you can see in the pictures that it does have climate control/aircon and power steering.

For 120,000y it would be good to part out here. Of course the govt wont let you.

sewid, if you read the remarks section it says

"ABS Not Available,SUN ROOF Not Available, TELEVISION Not Available, NAVIGATION Not Available, LEATHER SEAT Not Available, A/C Not Available, P/S Not Available, P/W Not Available, SERVICE BOOK Not Available, USER MANUAL Not Available"

I think i am pretty familiar with skylines buddy, whats with the attitude mate?

My previous skyline was an R33 GTS.

R33 GTS - engine RB20E, single cam, 2 litre engine with 130PS output. You do get climate control, power windows, power mirrors and power steering as standard

But you don't get ABS, traction control, HICAS, sway bars, etc. It's the entry level skyline. But IMO it's still a good car, after all it's a SKYLINE.

though it is somewhat underpowered! :)

They can be had for peanuts over here and there are plenty of nice examples around, the above car not being one of them. :)

I meant that towards the people thinking the RB20E was a transplant.

Besides if you are familiar with Skylines you can quite clearly see the PS resevoir as well as the AC/Climate control setup in the pics. The remarks on that site are usually wrong in that section.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
