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

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
