Thanks guys,

Anyone who knows me knows how well this car has been looked after, I'll also have the box and diff serviced (with Motul stuff, of course) before it goes :ban:

I've also got some DBA5000 rotors and R33 GTR calipers to match if anyone is interested in them (Bolt on fromt brake modification - awesome).

DBA5000 have NEVER been used, and the Calipers are in good shape - no leaks or anything :D

Anthony - will the DBA 5000's bolt upto my ride ?

How much you want for just the DBA5000's? And they wont fit the standard Nissan callipers Richard, the discs are larger (or I could just be saying this so I get them first... :D)

Hey guys!!!!

I'd really like an SAU member to buy this thing... just so I can tell you all what my new car (and modest power figure) is.

Over the weekend I chucked it in a very slow dyno comp I was running, and it yet again made over 280rwhp (200rwkws). Which it'll do everyday if you like.

This car would HAVE to be one of the best examples in Australia, as I doubt there would be any others around without their clocks fiddeled by now.

I have the service records, and know these kays are correct :D

I'd rather keep this thing - honestly.

But, new new car is awaiting pickup and I need to sell this first (I don't have any more room).

Anyhow - buy it damn you.

    • Update for the sake of closure   Ended up getting the intercooler piping all sorted, new plugs and yellow jacket coils, and she was idling mint until it warmed up while I was bleeding the cooling system. Found the misfire to be localised to cyl 3 by unplugging coilpacks, ran a compression test, that checked out, then decided to get a mate to check if that spark plug was firing out of the motor. Upon cranking it over, with the injectors disconnected, the car actually fired and ran on a couple cylinders and heaps of fuel came out the top of cyl 3 I'd say that injector's either spraying incorrectly or spraying far too much, which is fine as I'm planning on replacing them anyway I'm planning on making about 250kW on flex fuel, and have a set of 1000cc injectors from ozautosport, obviously overkill but I'm planning on building the motor and running more boost further down the line, do you reckon they'd be too big for a smooth idle on 98? Thanks for the replies gents, much appreciated
    • I'm confused. You said you want to "remove the clear coat from most panels" but it sounds like you are actually doing a full respray? Few random things to add -  If you chase the blistered paint with 120 grit, I can almost guarantee you'll chase it down to bare metal (that's fine). But if you paint the car from here, you'll have nice little indents where ever the blistered paint was. The new paint won't magically level out the low areas, you need to fill them. Which leads me to the main point I wanted to add, make sure the whole car is flat before you paint it. All those areas with blistered paint you sanded out, make sure to fill them and triple check they are flat with a block guide coat. I'd also check the whole car is flat with a large block and guide coat but yeah up to you if you want to go that far.   
    • 300hp (225kw) is barely outside the standard turbo's range with a bit of extra boost in it (200ish). If you are going to change the turbo you should aim for 250-300kw (330-400hp) to make the expense worthwhile
    • A couple of things, firstly omg that turbo is expensive! $3,000 USD for dinosaur technology is robbery. You could buy a G series turbo and have a good amount of change instead.  If you want a good budget option, have a look here - https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/ If you are keen to spend more, have look at the modern turbos, Garrett G series, Borgwarner EFR, etc. Have a look at the RB25 dyno results thread for inspiration.  If you upgrade your turbo to something that will support the 300hp you want and only "probably" have Haltech ECU, your car will only "probably" run. Actually, no it won't run. You are going to need the ECU and injectors at the time you do the turbo upgrade.  No thoughts on "this much boost" as you didn't say how much boost that actually is. Having said that, plenty of unopened RB25's making even more power then what you are chasing.
