Due to just buying a Ducatii 916 while still owning a CBR 600 and the two cars its time i part with something to afford the new bike, so the Gemmy is up for sale unfortunetly

This car is abit of an unfinished project but still very much drivable and quick non the less.

The engine had a rebuild with less then 300k's ago on it along with a full retrim of the interior and respray of the car.

It has a Holden 2.6lt motor from a 1989 Rodeo with a 300ZX VG30 Turbo strapped to the side with a 2.5" exhaust and autometre phantom boost, water and oil temp mounted in the center and a v8 fuel pump.

Other then listed above the car is pretty much stock but still has a HEAP of torque! There is reciepts for nearly everything done if not all things done (just need to find them )

The car would be pushing between 120 and 140 rwkw on only 4-5 PSI. Not running any higher pound cause of cooling issues I dont want to risk anything. But had a cooler on awhile ago before rebuild and I have to say it was a torquie little thing.

Will update the thread, when more things come to mind.

Asking price is $4,500.00 and am in SA

All inspections are welcome as well.

Cheers

Kye

    • Just checking, when we are talking about high temp fluid, are we all referring to DOT 5.1? I haven't had any issues with changing it every 2-3 years. 
    • Yeah that is still true AFAIK.....good brake fluid should be changed annually because it absorbs water faster which is more often than most mechanics would do it. There are cheap tools that check water% in brake fluid if you all scientific about it. I for sure would (do) run good brake fluid in anything that even casually saw the track like Murray said; avoiding the risk of "exciting" fade is worth it
    • Well, back in the day..... "race" fluids, which were essentially only really "high temp" fluids, used to absorb water more readily. So they really needed to be changed more often anyway. The coincidence of that being directly necessary along with it being what racers would do as a matter of course was just fine.
    • Does the high temp fluid degrade any different over time compared to normal one? That's one thing I've always been wondering. Because a track car is going to get the fluid flushed probably way more often than every two years and will see less kilometers driven. I would think the requirements are different. I'm running Motul RBF 600 in mine. Was recommended by my mechanic before a trackday and I've stuck with it since. Hasn't seen the track since but I've kept buying and using it for servicing anyway.
    • The brakes are all stock bar some DBA slotted discs and the EBC pads and braided lines. The car has brake ducts as standard but they're kinda pointed in the general direction of the brakes rather than really getting at the heat source. I guess I should hit it with an infra red thermometer after a session and see what they're at.  100%! Its just a curiosity more than anything. As I said, high temp brake fluid was such a track day rage back in the day. From people I speak to at the track and threads on here everybody has their own take on it but I'm not gonna scoff at spending a few more bucks.    OH, a quick side question - would you use brake fluid from an opened container even if the lid has been on? Eg, if you have a bottle that you opened last time you flushed, it's been tightly closed, is it still good?
