ok guys shes a bit rough at the moment, but wouldnt take much to get it back to its former glory

there has been big cash spent on engine, turbo, trans and clutch and can run high boost quite easily although it hasnt so far

the engine, box clutch and turbo have probly around 7000 k's on them on extremly low boost and always run on the best oils, body has 115 000 k's

ok now for wat is rooted, the bonnet is f**ked due to a minor bingle with a hilux, as is the front bar and intercooler (although intercooler can easily be fixed) the rear bar needs to be patched as the fibreglass on one side doesnt look to flash, rear windscreen needs replacement... as there isnt one due to some f**kwit cocksmoker smashing it and the boot lid has a small dent with a little paint missing.

i know it doesnt look to good at the moment but i have guestimated total repair costs to be around $3500 and thats to have it looking as good as it ever did

im open to reasonable offers, please pm me your offer as u never know :)

*edit* at the moment im getting offers around the 10 - 12 k mark, if anyone can beat them its theres

first up was the rear skirt, was drunk one morning and trying to reverse out my driveway to go to work, reversed into a branch that had fallen off the tree next to were i park and it shatterd the fibreglass

then i was driving home after doing the shopping one night in peak hour traffic wen my misses flipped out, so instead of lookin at the road i turned to face her then bang, strait up the ass of a hilux, wich f**ked the front bar bonnet and intercooler

and last up i was parked out the front of a resturant (wich also happens to be the local hoon hangout) and i was having dinner with my in-laws, came out to find my back windscreen smashed

and now coz of all the loans iv taken out to build the motor i cant afford to fix the body, so im stuck with the option to sell it as it is

and yes i wrote the drift pig on the bonnet lol as the car was built for drifting

    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
