hi guys im currently on my green p's and own a 05 vz wagon with factory sunroof, 20s rear bags exhaust blah blah,

was just wondering im looking at selling it for hopefully 12k or near enough anyways and was just wondering if

you guys think i could get a swap for a r33 96-97 model manual gtst and maybe get some cash my way ?

or would i be better to sell my car and buy 1 i want either a standard one or one with maybe coilovers and possibly front mount

as i want to do everything my self..

What state are you in? or are you going to wait till you get your opens before you drive it?

im in nsw i am about to put 6 months rego on it but wanna sell it shortly and get a r33 now to have to work on, i also have a daily so not to worried about not being able to drive it as of yet

If you can sell it for 12k, do it. Then look for a nice 33 for 8-9k. That way you have every option in the world instead of f**kin around with f**kbags that dont have any extra cash on top or have shit skylines to offer in trade. Get the money, take your time and choose the best one you can.

Cheers buddy this is the exact advise i was hoping for :)

i will try to get 13 but if not doesnt matter but i ll be advertising it a bit higher then i want so i have play, i m almost 100% sure a p plater is gonna buy my wagon lol

but i want to get about 12-13 maybe put some money on my loan and have enough left to do some work so ill be aiming for the 7-8 max 9k range for a car but for 9

i d want a S2 33 with coilovers at a minimum, might be pushing it but if i sit and watch carsales etc.. all the time and have the money i can snatch one up when it comes up

    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂
