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

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..

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

      Rb25 trigger kit and timing misalignment

      By drifter17a · Posted

      The trigger kit I have is similar to the one in the link below. While going through Facebook, I saw someone else mention a similar issue, and I’m starting to think this could be related to the crank gear itself. I understand these parts are CNC machined, but maybe some earlier versions or individual pieces might have slight inconsistencies—it just doesn’t look right in my case. https://www.facebook.com/share/16an8evZd9/?mibextid=wwXIfr I originally installed the crank gear using the thin OEM washer, but as shown in the attached photo, the timing belt walks very close to the edge. When I tried using a Nitto washer—which is thicker—it actually made the issue worse. The belt walks about 1mm off the front edge, which raises more concern about alignment.   I’ve gone through the full process of elimination:   The tensioner pulley and bolt are brand new and installed correctly. The bolt isn’t bent and is oriented properly. The back of the tensioner and the idler pulley are clean and seated correctly. The idler sits slightly more forward, which I understand is due to its design. I’ve experimented with both tight and loose belt tension, but it makes no difference. As soon as the engine runs, the belt immediately walks forward again—even if I reset it beforehand.     At this point, I’m considering replacing the crank gear with your Race Version 1 (12-tooth), but before purchasing, I wanted to ask:   Are you aware of any alignment issues when using this gear? Would this gear help keep the belt aligned correctly, or could the walking still occur? Does it work with a standard missing-tooth crank and rear washer? Is there any specific crank setup or install procedure required?     For reference, I’m not using a front washer, as the PRP crank gear seems to replace the need for one.   Looking forward to your advice.

      Yep, looks that way. Never driven an E30 or R31 so I can only imagine
