hey guys im looking at going over seas to live for a yr so its time to say good buy to my pride and joy... lots of money has been spent on it and would not take a lot more just to tidy up a couple things!

well this is what it has.

RB25/30 with new chrome rings and race bearings. (using the turbo head not the shitty non vvt head)

fully rebuilt garrett 35/40 turbo

50mm external gate

stainless manifold

3" exhaust with hot dog and cannon out back (makes for a mean sound!!!)

Sard 550cc injectors

Nismo adjustable fuel pressure reg

genuine GReddy inlet plenum

80mm billet throttle body

$1200 just spent on rebuild kit for the OS Giken twin plate

brand new 52mm alloy radiator (works VERY well) with twin thermo's

tube and fin 300x600 fmic

brand new adjustable cam gears (isc)

Q45 afm

Remapped ECU by jeff from speedlab/turbo tune

shimmed R33 diff (1mm shim = locked)

sparco mesh rims 17x8 and 17x9 powder coated white about 4 months ago

tien HE coilovers

just jap rear camber arms

race bucket seat

momo steering wheel

HKS EVC 3

speco boost, oil pressure, and water temp gauge's.

autogauge monster techo with shift light (just needs to be hooked up)

uras rear bar, origin agressive skirts (old style i have been told) and ill throw in a new front bar for the sale. buyer can choose what they want as long as it comes from viva

gearbox is currently broken but i well replace that this week/weekend

runs outta reg on thursday

it was tuned on 16psi and it made 291rwkw at only 6700rpm. should see 350+ if you up the boost to 19 or 20psi but i left it at 16psi just for safety. the engine has only done about 600k's since the new rings and bearings where put in.

extras that come with car are. 2 x RB30 blocks, oil cooler, new front bar as the on on there is a bit average, and turbo smart BOV

there is probably heeps that i have left out but just come look.

Looking for around the $15k

    • Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.
    • Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂
    • After drying a few days, time to put her back together 
    • The hot exhaust light will come on not from just the cat being blocked, but it's just a temp sensor, and it's designed to warn you to not do things like park in long grass.   If you've been pushing the motor a bit, it can cause the light to come on.   Second if the cat is rattling, I'd suspect it's not blocked, but instead falling apart inside.   The easiest "fix" until you can get a cat put back in, is to unbolt your one, bash the rest of the insides out, and then bolt it back in.   For a daily driver/street car, I am in agreeance of put a cat in the car. If it were race car I wouldn't care if it were removed.
