Hahaha maybe I'll just drive around in my stock GS popping gear change farts again with dat torque reduction shifting :P 

 

all day errry day.

Brrrrrrrrshhhhh  BRABRABRABRA Brrrrrrrrshhhhhhh BRABRABRABRA SCHTUTUTUTUTUUUU

I like my golfs fart assisted shifting. Its far more subtle than the ignition cut shifting in the skyline as it has fewer flames, loud bangs and clouds of soot showering the people behind you. I think it's a good compromise.

BRRRRRRRRRRRSSSSHHHHH... *waits for gear change*

Did you actually take out 4 bearings? Thats fairly impressive.

Only 1 rod let go but all the bearings were worn and there was damage to the grooves they sit in.
What happens when you don't got no oil pressure

So a company some old colleagues of mine work for has gone bust overnight. No one knew anything about the debt the company was in, so everyone rocked up to work and debt collectors had locked up the property and building. All employees working at different sites were instructed to bring all the vehicles to the site to be repossessed. All tools and equipment inside the building.

I want to know what will happen to all the equipment. I want my boss to buy some of the equipment, because obviously it will be heavily discounted. Any idea if those sorts of things get auctioned off?

The different equipment I'm chasing ranges from about $5k-120k brand new.

Message Moh he sees this a lot with kitchen stuff.

 

the ones I have seen auction of on Grays auctions or similar.

 

best bet is to find the administrators (quick google should find that) and contact them.

Still don't understand why you would replace the s2000 motor with an inferior sr20.

 

Seems to be the engine of choice for an event that has so much pulling power it can fluctuate the cost of the second hand engine market

This. If you can show you are willing to pay a decently large sum of money for equipment and get a heap of it gone in one hit they are likely to take it. But if the equipment was on finance, the ones that financed it will likely get it back and then auction it off as it belongs to them, not the company that went bust.

    • Why are people so insistent on making dirty water?!
    • Fark what are the changes of that snapping like that, clean. Nek minnit, custom radiator goes in, with built in oil cooler like those discontinued PWR ones from yesterdeacades ago
    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
