Yep... at least it is still a straight-6. You will have a blast.

Hopefully you will get the SL65 as a hand-me-down when he replaces that... :D

Geez, i feel so sorry for you, having to sell your skyline because you have to drive a crappy old 2003 model M3. I'm just glad i don't have to put up with that sort of stuff. My deepest sympathies for you.

But seriously. Good luck to ya, make sure you drive it how it was meant to be driven :wave:

duuuudeee!!! i hate you so much right nyah!! :D

Is she SMG II or 6 speed? Colour? Pics? 19" rims??? :D

That would have to be THE coolest hand-me-down ever. My current car is a hand-me-down too! but it's a '91 Nissan Pulsar hatch, 1.6ltr :( - But i'm stepping up soon as well!

If you're in Melb, make sure you bring her out on a cruise :D

enjoy one of the best engines ever to have graced a performance car :D

Clearly that learning didn't include classes on how to spell though.. but you did learn how to type in an internet forum over the holidays and it was so much fun .. and I could tell all my friends!!!

hey since i am buying my first skylie in janurary r 33 gtst 96 model most likely i was just wondering how fast a standard skylie should run 0 to 100km/h in? how many seconds also i c a lot of people...

mate, you are so full of crap it hurts.. I guess the dream ended before it even begun huh?

Where is this car? You're 12 years old aren't you?

meh lying or not the m3 is not such a great car, we've competed against them a couple of times and kicked their arses with a 33 gtst and teh 31 gtsr.

plus they have the tinniest sounding exhaust I have ever heard.

plus, there's a recall on them to rebuild the engine :D BMW quality eh? NSW Members only: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...ead.php?t=52302

or...

"All E46 M3's are now subject to a big end bearing re-call. This entails removing the sump and installing new bearings as well as new bolts and sump gasket. The really funny bit is one size bearing fits all regardless of kilometres travelled. I'm not real sure if this includes the poor bastards that have already had engine changes but I'll bet they are. Glad I didn't pay $130,000.00 plus for such a piece of crap." posted by someone who knows :D

i must agree with you duncan , they are crap . i have seen several put conrods through the side of the block as well as the bearing issue , i guess thats the reason they bust conrods ( they keep drining them with spun big end bearings .

you would expect better when you pay $150k + for a car .

as for just removing the sump and replacing the big end bearings , well what can you say , if the crank is 100% unmarked it maybe ok but in most cases you would have to remove the crank , regrind and use undersise bearings . thats what i would do if it was my car , at the very least pull the crank out , check clearances and if everything is ok then at least linish it .

    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
    • It's TWO steering wheels actually. 😛 one for each hand They are wheels, and they steer!
