Fs: R31 Skyline , Manual Series 2 Ti W/rb25Det


Recommended Posts

Hey all,

The time has come to sell my beloved Ti...

It's an R31 Skyline Ti with an RB25DET (which has been rebuilt in aus, cant remember how many km but it wasn’t much - only just fitted with brand new excedy HD clutch). These are factory auto, I converted it with the old engine using an RB20DET gearbox and a freshly reconditioned tail shaft (tight).

It has an over shimmed LSD (which has never opened, so call it 'locked') full Nolethane bushes just fit throughout the car (500km ago), its incredibly low with Whiteline springs that have had the progression 'removed', normal healthy shocks, Whiteline HD front and rear sway bars and strut brace so it handles pretty well but there isn’t much travel ...

It has S3 hotplates, a genuine MOMO ~ 280-300mm(?) steering wheel and genuine 80's spec BBS wheels (16x7), something like 10% tint all around.

Car is pretty straight, there is not accident damage but a couple dints here and there, paint is in pretty bad condition with the typical Nissan metallic fade over the bonnet roof and boot, and it is missing the chrome strip ont he rear bumper.

Would be an ideal drifter, or a really good street car with a bit of love (and maybe some higher springs...).

It has new tyres, new brake pads...

Engine has Splitfire coil packs, factory R33 piping and SMIC, Drift manual boost controller but runs stock boost (never had the chance to wind it up (need gauge/timing light),full mandrel 3" turbo back (inc dump) de-cat exhaust, I think a 3L stainless surge tank with a Bosch 044 external fuel pump, 55mm alloy radiator with electric thermo fan, 500ml generic plub back catch can.

Has the blue velour interior in pretty good condition, car doesn’t have any major issues just a couple minor wiring gremlins – It has a Kenwood CD player that keeps blowing the audio fuse but I’ve never bothered to fix it since it’s not a priority, atm the tacho doesn’t work as it needs the inline resister as per R31 skyline club guide, also the Speedo drops in and out which is a recent issue – probably just the wiring under gearbox.

Comes with a couple bits, brand new DBA4000 slotted/cross drilled rotors, leftover Nolethane bushes, some other random R31 parts (R31 std. LSD (worn but good if you don’t want it locked), rear struts w/stock springs, dash bits whatever you want).

Not really sure what its worth, asking $4,300 registered atm - its worth more than that in parts excluding the amount of time I've put into it, but after a quick sale so I am negotiable.

(Will sell for ~ $500 less without rims, less again if you dont want it registered as its about to lapse)

Some pictures attached, should get more/better ones soon, you can see the fade in the pictures of it on the track.

This is a video to hear and see how healthy it is (and the catch can setup):

I would be all over this for a dedicated little track car (so I stop thrashing my poor street r33) if I had space in the yard still... I should knock the neighbours fence down, they probably wouldn't notice.

Good luck with the sale mate :)

    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Comparison of the 2: Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
