Hey guys,

Looking to sell my 1990 SW20 GT.

Really awesome car, have done a bit to it and the previous owner has done heaps more than that to it. Due to lack of money, and the amount that I have already put into the car I can't afford to keep her unfortunately, I need to sell and get another car, maybe a skyline or integra for my everyday drive. I'm looking for $6000 but am happy to work out a good price for serious buyers. Also, if I can get the ECU working, the price will go up.

The good parts are:

- Have had an imported engine put in which happened to have a few issues, so under the warranty the shop had to recondition the whole engine. So essentially a new engine.

- New turbo

- Air to Water cooling. Much better than air to air cooling.

- Custom racing exhaust.

- Engine bay cooling fans.

- Turbo timer.

- Autotechnica racing wheel

- 17" Enkei Mags with near new Falken Z-series tyres (done aprox 1500km).

- Pod Filter - Roof Scoop

- 6.1 Pioneer Speaker system

- Kenwood CD player

- Pop out monitor (can be used for reverse camera, tv or dvd player)

- TRD short shifter - Glass Targa Roof (the roof comes off and stores behind the seats).

- After market suspension (King Springs I think).

The not so good parts:

- The biggest issue is the ECU, when the mechanics did all the work on the engine something has happened to the ecu and they are not taking responsibility for it. This is the main reason the amazing price as it is a bit costly to get a new ECU.

- Drivers side power window doesn't work. Could just be the switch.

- Electric mirrors don't always adjust.

- Seats are a bit worse for wear.

- Paint could do with some work in some areas, although it is still respectable and isn't really a huge deal.

Apart from the above things, this car is amazing!!! One of the funnest cars out there to drive, mainly because of its mid engine mount and the amazing traction it has. Selling due to lack of money to fix ECU. There are a few things that need doing, however, those things taken into consideration, this is an absolute steal

May be interested in a swaps, however it needs to be a working car with a rwc. Happy to put a bit on top if I can.

ECU is an unknown at the moment, tried to reset it to factory settings and the car isn't turning over. Still a good steal if you can get a ECU an know how to install it.

I'm based in West Brisbane

Thanks for looking :)

    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
    • Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!
    • Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
