Flite, good price and very cheap..why?

My suggestion is before you spend all your money on painting etc, make sure the mechanicals are sound and you have fresh fluids, filters, belt, pump etc. That is do a major service on it.

Also get the compression test/cylinder leakage done to assess engine condition.

you may be in for a surprise, you may not.

yeah ken first thing i did was change all the fluids and stuff. Once the paint is done i was looking to rebuild the engine anyway, i was down at hyperdrive yesterday to get a quote on that, the dude said he'ld call me when he had the quote ready. Also its in better condition than I thought it was gonna be in. In the pics i got the interior looks all stuffed up and the body looked much rougher than it is.

Sweet car has passed the pits, I'ld like to thank my brother who works down there for getting it over for me :)

rofl..

Long, will get that price to you asap. I assume you know who will be building it here??

Cheers

Long, Anthony Scali ( nd4spd) will probably be doing the rebuild on it as our resident engine building/head porting/wolf tuning guru.

I think if you ask anyone on here , they will tell you what his achievements are.

Compression/cylinder leakdown test on the GTR is $150.

Cheers

    • Just had this happen to me too.  R32 GTR.   Also broke "just before going out onto the track" - someone up there is looking out for us... Very scary since I was about to do a narrow street course with zero run-off and curbs everywhere. Many people on here upgrading to billet uprights and R35 bearings?   Or buying new OEM knuckles?  I am not keen to replace with another s/h 30 year old fatigued part.
    • Top off with distilled water and see what happens. If you keep losing coolant then you know to start looking.
    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
