My bad, I thought all Libertys had the EJ22. I'm pretty sure the EJ20 was better as far as power was concerned (don't quote me, but I think something to do with resonance).

As for the GTiR, not a big fan... To me it just seems like a project by Nissan to make something to compete with a WRX, which failed a little. Just my opinion though hehe

Seems like a few good cars are interstate - I don't want the hassle but !

Anyway, I'll keep looking.

Bike is as good as sold, so I might just bide my time and wait for all the P platers to sell their turbo cars for cheap, also people may want to get rid of quick ddue to the propose anti-hoon laws... Gotta love being nearly 40 ;) There's one advantage of being OLD !

also people may want to get rid of quick ddue to the propose anti-hoon laws...

In my opinion people who would do this are kidding themselves. The hoon is the driver, not the car, and I see plently of Camry's, Magnas and Excels doing stupid shit. On the up side, you might get a cheap car out of it though, I won't disagree ;)

Hey that's true!

But why get another torquey straight-line monster (or a car that you can turn into one) when you've already got one. You've got the sledgehammer, go for the scalpel.

Any rotary based car that has had its engine replaced with an inferior piston engine should be terminated as a crime against society (sp?).

Bwahaha.. :nyaanyaa:

Awww.. Maybe the guy didnt want to send his mechanics children through university with the cost of keeping that wankel running? :thumbsup:

Whoops - I just bought another car......

I am a Nissan owner again ! YAY.

Don't get too excited - It's another project..... ha ha ha ha

Pretty much stock CA20 with headers and zorst. Manual 5 speed

Got it off e-bay for $1500 ha ha - never even inspected it - what a crack ! This should be good.

Plans

--------

CA18DET conversion is the first thing.

Lock the Diff

See where we go from there.

Yeah - but this is different - it's a Nissan :(

And this one has rego and is not a ex rally car like the laser was (impossible to get registered)

One drifter coming up :mellow:

Ha ha

YES, I am a glutton for punishment - but I love it.

Even though the laser project failed, I had fun with it !

Hmmm - there's a CA18DET on e-bay for $400 - 69,000 kms....... NO NO NO Don't do it !

    • That ring thing is interesting how it's holding everything together 
    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
