hi -

WTB RB25det head or 25 with a blown bottom end - only really want the top -

Hey mate,

I have a few lying around the shop if you want. Is there any preference on internals like cams or no cams or what... pm me

Does anyone have a suitable 5x114.3 17" rim to use as a spare? Anything really, but preferably 8" maybe 9" wide.

I figure it would be better to have a similar size spare rather than the good old yellow space saver. :yucky:

Is there POPO issues with this?

Cheers.

Rob.

Do you want to carry something as big/heavy as a full spare around with you? The space saver is bad enough. TBH I have no idea why I haven't taken mine out yet... That should be one of my next "things you've done to your car lately" entries.... :)

You never know when you'll need the spare....however I knew exactly when I was going to USE that space saver - NEVER. I'd sooner pay to be towed than drive on that piece of shit lol (yes I know this is a silly way to look at it)

No way, that's my plan!

I have a random 17x8 inch rim, it's an advan rim.

I got three advan rims with my car (i assume the other was busted) so youre welcome to take the odd one out for a small fee.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
