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 :)

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
    • Yeah, I guess its pretty easy to get to if this doesn't work. Just wait till next oil change and pull it out. I am going to have to do the oil pan gasket soon and thought I'd just replace it while I was there.  Thanks
    • All that matters is you're safe and you were able to type that post. Hopefully heaps of parts you can recover for the next shell.
