Hi mate ( and welcome to SAU),

Are you able to supply more photos - especially from a distance - perhaps side on? also, maybe one of the repaired area ( how hard was the front hit? do you have any invoices for repair work done?)

I was hoping to contact these guys;

http://www.carsales.com.au/pls/carsales/...icle_id=3153203

but the fact that you will consider a swap for a RWD turbo is better for me.

Will send you a PM with details for 300ZX TT 5spd targa top, JZA80 1GGTEU and FC RX7 turbo 5spd if these are of interest.

cheers,

J

Hi mate, I've been considering one of these for a while but need more detail. Feel free to send further photos to my email address below. I'd like to see interior as well as under bonnet and around the headlights, and the complete front view.

I have 2 R33 GTS25t Skylines I want to get rid of in the near future.

One is auto and black '94 with 115K on the clock. Stock hand polished wheels and side skirts. Has had a light tap in the side at the rear of the right side but will be repaired in a couple of weeks. I've never taken it over 7psi. Great sounding exhaust from the turbo back so it isn't too loud being an auto. I did have a loud one but it was annoying. All maintenance by myself but it's been so reliable it's only needed belts and oil changes.

The other is a red manual 94 I've used on the track mostly. 128K twin turbo RB25dett. Engine about to be rebuilt with new turbos so not quite available yet. HD Systems height and damping adjustable suspension and adjustable castor as well as about to receive rose jointed rear adjustable camber setup. Diff recently replaced with a good stocker. Pineapples. can come with or without attachments for harness. Made 220rwkw on the single turbo setup with power fc and looking at 280-300 after finished with the TT and rebuild. Lots more to tell but will be looking at around $20K once the work is done on this one though. It will have a tough engine and plenty of power and handling.

If interested let me know.

    • The 5 spd AWD boxes are all like-for like. They might not all be identical (covering >10 yrs of production means that many parts were updated as they went) but they are the same thing. You're not going to be swapping to auto.
    • Oh, oops, yeah, I'm getting the cams in the 2.5 replaced, so the above factory 2.0 cam specs don't mean 5hit, but, after alot of googling it seems the factory 2.5 cams don't like to rev So, yeah, there is that 🤣
    • Update - new drop of oil noticed. Leak seems to be continuing, but a slow/small one. 
    • Hey y'all! So I am the owner of a shiny new '99 ENR34 25GT-Four, 5spd manual. Took it to the tire shop to get new shoes. They mismatched the front and rear axles (225/40s on rear, 225/45s on front), so AWD system went bonkers for the next day. Took it back in, they fixed it, but I noticed about 8-9 big drops of red fluid in my parking spot. Leaking has stopped, but it's clear that the transfer case may have been stressed/hurt by this debacle. I'm taking it in for inspection tomorrow. If things are FUBAR, I have a few questions. - ENR34 manual transmission transfer cases seem impossible to source. Can a GTR transfer case fit? Or if not the whole thing, just seals or components? GTR is 6spd, mine's 5spd, so I'm thinking no, but lmk. - Finding a few RB25DE NEO AWD auto transmissions for sale, for decently cheap. If my only option is to swap to auto, what else will I need besides an auto-specific gauge cluster, and associated wiring? - I imagine the R32/33 GTS4 transmissions/transfer cases are a no-go? They're not NEO engines, so unsure. - RB25DET/4WD setup from the Stagea, any parts that transfer over? I did search up for this on SAU and google, very little info covered.   This is my first post, so apologies for breaking any rules, please let me know, and thanks for the help.
    • Thanks. I agree, looking at those plugs in conjunction with good compression/leak down tests I'm not too certain its ring related anymore.  I have a Swagelok ball valve on the drain and tubed it lower down to the left side of car to easily dump it into a container. I do not drain back into the sump. I've never had to drain it though as there's never been any oil in it.
