wanna hear the funniest thing ..... one police officer goes to the other "whats the rego" .... "N-I-Z-M-O" "Yeah but whats the rego?" ....... "that was it" ..... "oh i thought that was the make" :D .... idrive a Nizmo model of car haha

I looked at my watch and it had just gone 12 so I thought I will just finish up what I am doing then pop out and get some lunch..... the next time I looked at my watch it was about 2.15 ..... I just had this stunned look on my face after realising that I just missed my lunch..... ohhh well I am just going to go home early :D

no takers on the car so far. In the sunday times again this week.

Might try the auto trader. Someone suggested to take the Nitrous kit off, because people are turned off by it perhaps?

Sad state we live in when people are turned off by 400+hp at the tyres :D

Hi Alex....

I know what you mean Dave.... although we all know that you installed the Nitrous kit properly and competently etc , the person walking in off the street is probably going to be a bit reserved seeing a nitrous kit on the car... peoples first interpretations of kits like that are not good when buying a car....

agreed. Nitrous is probably not a huge selling point.

people are funny things....a percentage of people who buy a line would do so because their mate said they were really fast and chopped his gemi or escort or somethin.....another probably more volumous proportion would do so because they think they look good, and hope to acheive car horn appeal without a $100,000 BMW price tag.

But NO ONE who buys one considers that they are all second hand.

and everyone is scared shitless that they will buy a lemon.

    • Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.
    • Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.
    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
