In the last week or so I've also managed to go from, this: Ey2MEoa.jpg

To, this: xrQrspF.jpg

Along the way I also discovered the source of my clonking noise, which turned out to be a completely shagged lower left hand control arm.

Lh/LCA: aIv8yP0.jpg

In the next coupe weeks I'm expecting to have that replaced with a new LCA and then I can start fitting up the rear brakes and my new 4.11 2way cusco Diff ;)

Nick are you trying to work out price for insurance purposes?

personally id be going agreed value minimum of 20k.

its a custom car, "paint work" wheels, suspension, engine conversion, mods to conversion.

gotta think about what it will cost you to replace it.

Last one i know of that got sold went for more than 20k, therefore worth more than 20. Typical pom!

my micra is worth 3k.

so i put a turbo and 2-3 grands worth of work into it and its worth 10?

your talking shit matt.

cars worth 5. engine is worth 2-3. labour... no idea.

f**king 20 grand. have a word with yourself.

    • Hey guys I have a 2001 Nissan stagea vq25det, I don't have any engine lights and not really any issues running but I was curious to see if I could use my obd II scanner to find anything that was hidden and I plugged my scanner in and it just said "Low voltage cannot scan" does anyone know how to fix this or what this could be?
    • Sadly we have something in common, our Skyline's like blowing up electrically 😢
    • So, no videos, but, the FAB9 Elite manifold and 68mm Bosch throttle bodies are in stock, but, not the rear part of the air box The FAB9 rear airbox thingie is made with a 3" intake pipe, to suit the 3" intake pipe size of a 68mm throttle body  When they get some more in stock is currently unknown as I'm waiting for FAB9 to reply with a ETA on resupply, my assumption is they outsource their plastic printing stuff to "china", and with the current "tariff war" going on in 'Merica it could be on hold for an undisclosed time Should I pull the pin on the Intake and throttle body, and wait for the airbox?????, that's what I'm thinking... 1. Would the standard 2.75" OEM intake on the air box really be that much of a restriction compared to the 3" naturally aspirated?????? 2. If I don't get the 3" FAB9 airbox fitted at the same time as the intake and throttle body will it need a retune, when/if it eventually turns up?????? As I'm impulsive, to a fault, decisions will be made within....."what's the time now"???....let's say 12 hours......LOL
    • yeah its just so expensive nowadays and its easy to lose motivation very quickly when you start adding up the costs. I acquired the car from a collector in Melbourne and was lucky to get the opportunity to buy something already completed.  I looked at a proper resto and your paying over 300-400K for a proper one (nut and bolt) so this one to me seemed like a much better option! Car is in private storage and for serious buyers, welcome to come see it/drive it in person (photos don't do it justice).
