sorry to hear mate... such a nice clean car

i think its R31 time Nathan!

think... R31 in shitty mechanical condition ($1000) + VL turbo engine and gearbox ($1500) + suspension ($500) and you have a replacement car thats quick and you can drive it anywhere...

well??

Have seen this car as well, not quite in it's finished state as it is now, but was very easy to tell how immaculate this car is. Sorry to hear it's going Nathan, but i'm glad i got to see it in the flesh tho. Hopefully it'll stay within SAU Vic and you can get to see it on cruises and give it some luvin every now and then :D

chin up mate :rofl:

chinny

Awwww thats no fun. Any no more Noofline hey....ah I remember the first time I saw her, gleaming in the sun....the "goodguys performance" sign reflecting the light.....the way the wind caught her hair....lol. Good luck with the sale mate. Sad to see it go. I know we can trust you not to go buying any b!tch car can't we :D

yer.. been there doing that :D RB20DET conversion is like $2k as well later on and drops pretty much straight in. They are good thrash cars except for the poxy diffs

Yer, if you want something shit, get a 1989 something or other :) Like I was saying BMW would not really be something you could drive around and not car about due to the insurance cost, parts costs, etc. And if you just hacked it, the resale would be even more tragic that its already going to be.

Sad day.. :grouphug: i feel your tears....

ps. whoever wants to buy my skyline i'll drive it back to melb for them.. it still has VIC rego too..hehe

Why don't you keep it - keep the turbo - and buy yourself a shitty daily driver (utes are good for that!)

Then to get extra cash to eventually get the bigger turbo fitted you can just sell your body. Skylinegeoff will be a nice regular customer to begin with Im sure.

    • Dear folks My family members have 4 different cars : Triton 2015 and Corolla 2011 and Mazda3 2012 and Hyundai Elantra 2014 Looking to buy engine oil funnel spill free What I found are are below  https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0BBTTJNKX?ref=ppx_pt2_mob_b_prod_image&th=1 https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/145553221359?srsltid=AfmBOoqYBU6Ptw0LU_bAp_k67U3qkF97HHvePkA7iHZw8vUmiwoIRaRr https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09X23TCS5?th=1 Is there a funnel with attachment that fits most cars ? Don't mind to spend for a decent quality  Thx  
    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
