Got a great example of a Skyline here. First person to own it out of Japan. Always serviced and not driven hard.

Its decent on fuel, kind of its tyres and a joy to live with. However I need something I can put tools in and take down to the beach with a trailer as we are building a beach house (Gf's family). I also need something to tow the boat and my kart. In addition to this I need something that I can chuck wetsuits in the back of and kart parts etc. Thats no life for a Skyline and I can't always use my mates Hilux!

So, the cars up for sale. Heres some specs.

5 Speed manual (same 5 speed box as the R33 GTR apparently)

ATTESA E-TS AWD system (not sure if its the Pro or not, definitely might be!)

Rb25DE Neo engine. 147kW of N/A Goodness. Don't worry there is a surprise coming later in the post..

Cusco coil overs - Don't know much about them as they came on the car when imported. Japan must have very smooth roads as they are set on ridiculously hard, can be softened up but my spines adjusted to it now..

350z touring wheels. I sprayed these black with plastidip. Going to give them another coat soon, maybe a fun bright colour!

The fun part.

I have an ALMOST complete turbo kit. It includes.

  • 2x turbos. Because having a spare is always nice. Ones from an R33 one from an R32. The R32 one should be interesting as it will max out on 8-10psi. You cant go past that on high comp anyway, should come on uber fast. Would be fun.
  • Braided turbo water/oil lines and nice banjos - Overnight parts from Japan.
  • Big F off front mount intercooler
  • Turbosmart type2 BOV
  • Nissan R34 GTT/Mines ECU
  • Turbo manifold to suit
  • Dump pipe

All you need to find is a front pipe ($30) and get some intake piping made up.

I had awesome plans for this car, but my next car will get some love from me in the form of mods. Have decided to get an 88 BJ74 landcruiser (Medium wheel base, fibreglass roof, 3.5L turbo diesel at 97kw). It will do the trick with pulling stuff and ill be able to throw things in it. The gf's uncle has one I can pick up cheap but it needs some work. Time to sell the Skyline to fund it!

Before sale the car will have a new windscreen put in as well as a good service. My uncle used to be a mechanic (Now retired) so we will go over the car with a fine tooth comb and make sure everything's in A1 condition for the new owner! Will be stoked to see the car get picked up by someone who wants to turn it into a real weapon. Maybe I can convince you to have a drive later down the track! :P

There is a few bad points on the car. Nothing too big.

  • Speeky front right suspension. Took it too pedders and they said the suspension is fine just one of the bushes is a little dry and is squeeky. Can change the bush but they said they all looked fine and its probably just due to sitting in the docks for a long period of time on import.
  • Front lip has a small chunk taken out of it. Remember this lip is an option thats not on many skylines. Makes the N/A look less dorky (lets face it, most N/A's have no front or rear lip and look a little silly haha). It's about the size of a tennis ball. I'm more than happy to repair this at home as i've had a bit of experience patching up formula vees and formula fords when I wanted to be Michael Schumacher.
  • A few small hail dents on the car. Had a quote from a paint-less dent removalist. He said a 2 or 3 hundred to get them all out without needing a respray. They are very minor and never bothered me. Being a uni student I just sucked it up and lived with it.

PLEASE NOTE WHEELS ARE DEFINITELY NOT CHROME ANYMORE! :P

I'm looking for $8000 for it as is. Well with a new windscreen (current one was chipped but it cracked the other day) as well a some servicing. Comes with rego to mid next year but no RWC. More than happy for you to take your time getting a RWC. Not too fussed.

P.S This price includes all the turbo gear listed.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.

      I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA

      The video for the servicing and fuel filter change can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44 One of the main jobs I wanted to do before the car officially went on the road, was to remove the awful looking blue silicone hoses. There's nothing wrong with having coloured silicone hoses, but I realise as I'm getting older I prefer monotone engine bays with a splash of colour on the engine cover(s). I cover this in a lot more detail in the Youtube video, so unfortunately there's limited photos of the process. The intercooler, upper radiator, boost vacuum and upper breather hoses were all changed to black silicone with mikalor clamps. The only blue left is a blanking cap at the back of the inlet manifold and the GReddy pulleys (which will be replaced for stock when the cambelt gets replaced) While the intercooler pipes were off I gave them a quick clean/polish too A before photo I do have a replacement air filter on its way. Fuse box covers were painted blue, they're now satin black Another job on the list while the bumper was off, is to add some mesh https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737966256_99b28bfa30_c.jpg[/img] I was hoping to use some thin wire to secure it, but it seems I've misplaced it and the wire I had was too thick to twist easily. I ended up using cable ties for the time being https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737131882_c2b7989dcc_c.jpg[/img] Was pleasant to see this https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737131627_8b2aab13b3_c.jpg[/img] The last thing to do was to fix the front grill and re-mesh that to match but I ran out of time The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4FsF6tgizE&t=23s
