since there isn't much interest..

I will part the car EOM March 2017, after I drive it gentle around Wakefield Park.

GLWS i would consider buying the car as a whole possibly early next year pending on a few things

sounds good :)

Goals for 2017, sell car, buy bigger house so can do car mods, buy Supra RZ

(yep going to the dark side)

Even though i have no need for it, the obvious care taken with this car, combined with the most honest FS ad i have seen... Make me want to buy it. It's so rare to see a skyline that has been driven gently, never redlined, never tracked.

Car will be off the market for now.

Turbo exploded yesterday when I went to get beer after it being sat in my yard for 3 weeks.

Might as well do the head gasket, valve springs, valve stem seals and maybe slightly longer duration cams. Maybe a respray and maybe I might keep it lol.

Let's see what 2017 brings. 

thanks everyone!

sounds like someone is missing a dose (pun intended) of their bi-polar meds.

So let me get this straight.......

When its going great you want to sell....

and when its mechanically stuffed you want to keep it :blink:

Tried to sell it working, no one wanted it.. now the turbo exploded there's pretty much no chance of selling it.

And, if I'm changing the turbo again it's going larger and I might just like the car a tiny bit more.

    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
