- engine has been pushed up hard against the firewall

- roof slightly bucked on passenger side

- head lights

- front bar and grill

This is what the car has:

Hey mate was sorry to see that beautiful car in the wall. Um just a tip may want to list a starting price for the car in your add. Good luck with the sale mate. I know if you contact FATZ he might be interested.

So sorry to hear.

Yes and if you do wish to sell items separately, you can PM me a price on all exterior items (except for the Kranze of course).

I can easily pick up from southern suburbs.

Regards Terry

So sorry it was a lovely car, you would be better off stripping it for parts prob make more cash, I have space and a hoist if you decided to and needed a hand

Thanks mate, I appreciate the offer...

Wow man that sucks...would hate that to happen to me when mines ready...

If you decide to part I would love the n1 side skirts pm me if u do I don't live too far from peakhurst as well

Tez has beat you to it unfortunately :P

We nearly have enough hands to take advantage of Scott's kind offer and strip this car to help a brother sell his car; albeit as parts!

Entrepreneurial Suggestion for a Win-Win :- I can approach Performance Imports to come and do an article called, "How Long Does It Take To Strip A Thief-Magnet?"

With PI doing an article with stop watch and camera in hand, it can be all witnessed for a mag feature. Meanwhile, all workers (aka buyers) work as feverishly as they can to pull the car apart - but as incentive to create some sort of record, the crew pays $10 per hour to a charity eg Cure Brain Cancer Foundation.

Win-Win??

Btw, all buyers will be searched as they leave Scott's workshop and if you are caught with Scott's 'socket in ya pocket', you need to donate an extra $1K! :P

Terry cool idea you certainly are a great ideas man. I wonder if that was to happen maybe we could all get any pictures we may have of 8th sin it's her undamaged glory for the magazine article , cause damn she was pretty

OK, we're trying to get this thing off the ground.

Hopefully we'll get a reply from Jason &/or Adrian soon, because your dilemma I know will be, "What if someone comes along in the meantime and wants the whole car?"

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
