hey mate.

yea i know this car and have driven it and worked on it since he brought it only a few months back. its a realy orsom car and if i didnt already have one id be right on top of this one. a very good buy!

if you want any more info let me know.

I have seen it buzzing around a fair bit. It does sound like it moves when he boots it. I personally havent heard any problems about it. Alot of rumours around about how much power the thing actually makes, I got no idea on the facts so I won't say anything. It's neat though, only fault I could pick from a distance looking at it is that it's never had similar wheels (even in the photo in the paper they are odd) but if you're going to drift it then it wouldn't matter. Go check it out and let us know what ya think of it!

went and checked out car, not bad minor things needing doing, depends how much of a perfectionist you are, will be an alright buy for someone who wants some fun. there was just a few things i didnt like. if he wants the $15,000 for the car id suggest cleaning the engine bay n spraying the rocker.

thats interesting as im yet to see a cheaper r32 with an rb25. when you take a 10,000 r32 and put in a 5,000 r33 engine and g box plus the few thousand worth of engine mods than 15,000 doesnt sound to bat to me especialy when it is here in tassy with fresh rego and new tyres.

oh and im pretty sure the wheels are the same just the rears have dish.

if you want any specs of what it does have than feel free to ask me.

i actually asked around about the car and heard a few things and yeah it costs money to do the conversion but if you look at how much the car still needs spent on it is it worth it.

you are going to get that with any car you buy. lots of things to tidy up and change to suit you. like has been said befor the value for money realy is there and it doesnt cost much to tidy things up once you have a car compared to starting from scatch.

the engine has 85,000kms on it the chassis has 185,000 on it all the things are minor that need doing yes but changing most of the bushes and cleaning stuff up does cost money, im not saying its a bad car unless what ive been told is true but i wouldnt pay that much for the car and i did see it when it was for sale in Vic so i knoe how much they were asking for it, i also dont like the fact that it uses the microtech which has no afm but thats my personal oppinion, thats all i have to say on the car n i wish him luck with the sale

well in 2 years time he'll have some fun then. plenty of time for mates to drive it. thats all right though long as hes happy it all comes down to personal oppinion and he has plenty of time to work on the car now anyway. even if he has problems its still a skyline and not a crappy (insert car make of your choice)

    • Unless you have big cams, there is no reason for an RB to idle at any more than the stock 650. No, it is not 850, 950, or anything else. It is 650. In fact, it might even be 550. I just opened an arbitrary stock Neo file in Nistune, and this is what I see
    • I love the undertray, especially the flappy bit for easier access for serving I'm thinking of fabing up one at work for the MX5 while I still have access to the metal shop at work with a guillotine and press brake Whilst removing the plastic undertray on the MX5 isn't to hard, I love the idea of a 2 bolt flap as opposed to removing the whole thing 
    • Great thank you for that. Yeah that is the bumper and spoiler it still has i just hadn't heard of it being referred to as a aero form bumper before. Really appreciate your help.
    • A little progress; I took the opportunity of an oil change to take a sample for oil analysis, will be interesting to see how it was treated for its first 125,000klm (I know how it has been treated since :rofl:) I went with 5w40 and will see what that does for oil pressure at higher revs. Also fitted the Z1 front undertray....a little more sturdy than the plastic factory one (although I suspect it won't stop a tree stump ) Nicest thing about it really is the 2 bolt "service panel"....a gift to the oil changer compared to removing 14 bolts holding the factory tray.
    • I think a scissor lift is better/faster in most cases, but I guess it does obstruct access to the centre of the car? BTW I weighed the quick jack. 3.5 tonne model is 50kg for each side. So yes, portable, but not with one finger
