The motor was good when I got it. But the hicas. Diffs and clutch were :Owned:

I spent alot of money on the car to get it to where it was. It ran a 12.5 on the quarter. And then KABOOM!! Meh got no money.

what exactly is wrong with the engine and were is this place you found gtr engines at about $6000 as i wolud like to know these things before going any further as i can way up the costs......?

cheers

19,000 is bargine price, new engine would be rnd 6,000 fully good GTR for 25,000 and a 1993 December model at that. Durno why its so hard to sell......

I got a quote to replace the engine. $2k to pull the old engine out and another $2k to put a replacement engine in. Can you get it done cheaper where you are?

There is a R33 Vspec motor going for ~$6k on the forums so your right on the money there.

Sounds a tad pricey. We R and R a GTR engine for $1K over here if you supply a complete engine.

$2k to remove an engine? WTF

You are being screwed

Sorry, I had to comment

You also have to realise that when you put a new engine in the car, even if it cost you $7,000 in total, you can probably get $2,000-$3,000 for selling bits of the old engine. IE turbos, head, injectors, stock dumps, ECU, the list goes on......

    • Ha ha ha, that's fair mate! We have the crackhead dogs now. Mainly because the missus wants the crazy dogs while she still has the energy and capacity to be able to keep up with them! Ha ha our current two are both Working GSD, there brothers and sisters (from the same litters) are in Police, Corrective Services, and I believe one did end up in defence force too. They're wild and fun, yet right now, both curled up asleep on the lounge room floor while we watch some TV. Mal is very likely the next dog (unless I get my couch potato guardian dog 😛 )   What are your Kitties names? Are you planning some house work, like those high kitty shelves, built in scratching post, and some cat passages from one room to another room?
    • Maine Coone, did look at but to big and fluffy As for performance dogs, we had Mals at work, performance dogs are fun to watch, but, way to much work for this old rooster
    • Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.
    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
