howdy..

i currently own a Subaru Impreza GX 1997 1.6lt 4 cylinder Auto, front wheel drive, seriously an awesome car, never had a single problem with it, engine is small but so is the car so it goes well, i've never paid more then $35 to fill it up from almost empty, i love it & my girlfriends going to most likely kill me because she likes it more then i do because it is a hatch & easy to transport her multese shih-tzu but i am looking at swapping it because i want another skyline (i've had 2 & love them).

i've owned the car since june this year, if i had the $$$ i would keep it & buy a skyline, it has 4 doors, just clocked up 150,000km, timing belt was done at 101,000km, full service history, brand new tyres within the last 3 months with recipts, has 17" gold rims, subaru genuine roof racks (removable) jvc flip open head unit with standard speakers, full body kit with a small crack on the rear of the body, brand new aftermarket halo headlights (comes with old ones as well to keep for spare parts), brand new chrystal fog lights all wired into switches on the dash, makes the front end look about 10 years newer, it has 2006 liberty seats in the front & back, any more info dont hesitate to ask.. it's really good because the cops never pull you over haha, so if you are looking to change to a more family like/cheaper to run car, this is good for you, i am in no huge rush to get rid of it so when the right car comes along i'll gladly organise to meet & compair...

i am after a Nissan Skyline RB25DE GTS 2 Door Manual, or a stock s14 200sx, doesnt matter what colour, as long as its done 150,000kms or less & the engine is not completely thrashed like some r33's ill seriously consider it, feel free to PM me.. im located in wodonga, victoria (on the nsw/vic border about 3 hours from melbourne) will happily travel.

i've found a few earlier model gx wagons on ebay with nothing done to them at all for $7000, mine is 97' with new wheels, body kit, 2006 subaru liberty seats, new headlights, crystal foglights, very reliable, full service history, only 150,000kms, etc. i feel like im being generous.

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
