Hey Aaron, I thought I had passed all the stuff on. I was sure you'd keep it all :) Glad to see you on the forum.

If there is anything I can do for you mate, please don't hesitate to ask. So sorry to hear you were involved in a crash through no fault of your own. I know you treated that car very well and i'm sure the engine has plenty of life in it yet. You have the receipts so you know what that engine cost so I hope you get a good price for it. It was a great set-up for a street car. The car itself was probably the nicest R32 I've owned and i've owned about a dozen. I'd say it's as nice or nicer than the one I've got now which I plan to keep for a long time.

As to gtr_23qu's question on power the engine builder was told it needed to handle 600hp but honestly a decent stock motor will handle that. The base N1 Nur engine is supposedly rated to 600hp anyway but this one was blueprinted and has a 1.2mm tomei head gasket fitted. I would be comfortable pushing it to 400kw atw+ for a street car. It has a few key bits that will enable it to handle some decent boost and power.

You dont know how much i want for it yet , you might not want it then :)

lol, well I know what it cost and it's not cheap. N1 block, N1 oil and water pumps, ported head, N1 pistons, tomei head gasket, tomei timing belt, all blue-printed and all other bits are brad new down to ever last nut/bolt/seal whatever. a lot more than what is replaced in the average rebuild. hope you get good money for it Aaron. :)

    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
