Hi all.

I have no idea if this is in the right section so if its not, please advise or move.

Due to unforeseen circumstances, I'm going to have to sell my car to buy a 4wd of some description.

I just need to figure out if I should part it out or sell whole so I'd like some opinions.

It is a r31 pintara wagon sleeper,

Mod list:

S1 rb25 rebuilt literally 3 weeks ago.

Eagle h beams

Cp 86.5 forgies

Acl race series mains and big ends

Arp head studs and rod bolts

Head rebuilt with new seals etc all Nissan stuff.

800cc injectors

Atr43g3 internal wastegate

Full 3" exhaust

Clutch is custom exedy sports tuff but with modified pivot point and ceramic button plate

Rb25 turbo box

Bw lsd with 28 spline axles

Tein front camber adjustable coilovers

King springs in rear

Full rose jointed castor arms etc

R33 brakes

Gts wheels (r31)

Walbro 460l e85 pump

Haltech e11v2

Car looks completely stock apart from wheels. Stock interior, the lot.

In fact I have been pulled over for rbt and they haven't even looked at the car.

Was setting up for e85 but running in on 98 so still not tuned on e85.

So far it has had a street tune and done 500km and seems to go really well.

Awesome car for someone who wants a quick car but also needs

Something that is a bit practical and can take kids. Has tow bar etc.

Fully engineered and legal.

Cheers.

I don't know what your time-line is Lucas to procure that 4WD. Do you need the 4WD urgently?

If it's not urgent, you can operate with Plan A for about 3 months to sell this modified 'sleeper' as an entire car. You must have envisaged this whilst you were upgrading surely?

I say 3 months because December and January are very 'slow months' for car sales - even if they're used cars.

If you need your 4WD urgently, you might try Plan A for just 1 month until mid-December > switch to Plan B and part it out.

Methinks you'll get more money that way, and avoid the 'slow months'.

Fair call Terry. There is no real urgency to the sale. The need for the 4wd is purely due to acquiring a holiday house that is only accessible by a 4wd and my wife is not keen on driving a 4wd again. I could probably have a 4wd and this car but I'm not really in a position to do that right now. Only problem is that I have pretty much zero idea on how much my car would be worth.

    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt
