Cheers, Sean, have you had much interest in your rig yet? Very tidy from the pics so I'm sure it won't take long to go!

saw this in chambers flat.... all i could do was open my mouth because the wheels were so fat
Good luck with sale man

Thanks mate, you didn't happen to be driving a white 35 did you? I passed one the other day just down the road.

I've had a little bit man, couple of people offering stupid amounts as they do..

It is clean i don't want to sell it lol but i need to.

Got one of those scam emails last night from someone claiming to be offshore in NZ and no phone and wants to pay by paypal hahaha.

Haha yeah I've had a few of those scammers with some previous sales. You're always going to get the few low ballers unfortunately. I'm sort of in the same boat as you, really don't want to sell but I have too haha.

Good luck with it anyway!

Matt have you been spamming your advert locally and on facebook/local pocket trader/paper etc? i reckon you'd have more luck selling it that way. That's how i sold mine, was actually through a guy that saw my ad on a local buy/swap/sell car fb page who told another guy who bought it!

but Sean, Matt is trying to sell the car with his wheels which is what brings his selling price to $26,000.....and buyers nowadays dont give a damn about wheels price....and compare costs with other cars in the market....

Thanks for the tips Sean, I have had it on Facebook/Gumtree and a couple other sites but not a whole lot really. I might start advertising a bit more to help out the sale.

Price dropped to a more realistic $23,750 ONO now ;) I've got a buyer interested at that who seems pretty keen so I will see how that goes.

    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
