Who would be interested:

Some one looking for a project car or parts.

Why am I selling:

I am looking to rid myself of my skyline, I was constantly replacing parts until my girlfriend calculated my end of year mechanic bill and decided to stop. After having the cooling system cleaned and replaced I was driving and the engine overheated. Long story short, I told my mechanic friend what happened and he said it was most likely a purge plug on rear of engine. The part itself is not expensive however the labour to replace the part is more than I am willing to spend. Additionally I do n ot wish to do the job myslef.

Problems:

Cooling system: New purge plug required. (Could be something else, mechanic is fairly certain).

Interior: Leather is peeling, door cards are in bad condition, front seats are aftermarket and not "legal" will need to be replaced for road worthy. (Carpet, dash and gauges are excellent).

Registration: Not Registered.

Condition: Not driving due to heating issue.

Positives:

I did love this car and up until these heating problem mechanically it was A+. Serviced very regularly and maintained very well. The car drove excellently and I miss driving it already. Will not require much work for road worthy, no oil leaks etc.

How much:

Car towing and removel + $800. (Only because I recently put on a new blitz intercooler worth $800).

I was originally going to just have it scrapped because I could not be bothered, however, I know how hard parts for these cars are to obtain so I figured I would offer it and maybe help someone out. I will be having it scrapped in two weeks time so pm me if interested.

    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.

    • Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.
