Yeh you're right about that, so many places are f**ked up, ridiculous prices on the smallest of things, but sometimes, you have no choice.

sometimes it sucks being a girl =[

it hardly ever sucks being a girl now! If you know your stuff, you get just as much chance as a guy, in most cases, AND you can work things to your advantage, I would never have got a rebuilt engine for $800 + a front pair of brembos if I had a wang, it's like sometimes they feel sorry for you, so you get shit for cheap. There are the few neanderthals out there who still think chicks are better off at home, but you know as well as I do what to tell them :P

Thanks for the list :>

Will deff be checking these places out!

I have a list of jap wreckers from about 4 weeks ago when I was trying to urgently find stuff, i'm not sure which are open on Saturdays, I guess there would be no harm in calling them and finding out :huh: Here's my list, in no particular order, you can decide what to do with it from there :rofl:

I would highly recommend Banzai, they are SO helpful!

How many people have bought engines from any of the wreckers above?

I have a R32 GTST Nissan Skyline it currently has 24psi oil pressure hot and cold... and a nasty missfire which could possibly be a blown head gasket.

I'm looking at getting a low k's Rb20det as its just a swap over job but i want a engine that will last more then 3months.

Anyone who has bought a engine through the wreckers...

what condition did it come in (pressure tested, leak tested)?

what did you pay?

where from?

Thankyou for any help.... as i would like to know the best places to try for parts and the engine aswell.

Pete (BOOSTA)

    • So I've been working on the car a fair bit, doing a lot of little things. Preparing some projects for this winter, as I'm taking 13 weeks off very soon for parental leave. Have my second kid on the way and he's due any week now. I'll need something to do while he's sleeping. I also usually take the car off the road in about a month and a half, until sometime around the end of March.  Still making slight adjustments to my tune, as the cold weather settles in. I've also had to start dropping boost and tire pressure as the weather gets cooler. It's getting very swirly at highway speeds. I drop to 20psi at 20C and 18psi spring pressure at 10C IAT's. I'm currently on 255 Falcon RT660's, but may look into running 275's next summer. They will fit, but barely. Might have to raise the rear a tad.  I'll start redoing my exhaust Monday, as I have the week off. I currently have an oval center muffler and cannon rear muffler. I've been told more then once from people behind me that my rear bumper is going to catch on fire one day. Seems I blow 5-10 second flames after doing a pull. No clue if that's the WMI, as I've never been able to do that before with other cars. I wanted to angle my tip down a tad so flames are pointed down and away from bumper. I also wanted to take the opportunity to reconfigure my exhaust line. I'm going to move my oval muffler to the rear with a pie cut angled tip and put in a new smaller round muffler in the center. I've rocked cannon mufflers on this car for the last few years and want to transition back the oval muffler look. I've also been looking for a stainless project to try out the new solar flux I bought. I'll post pictures on Monday, should be able to wrap that up in a day.  I'm also picking up another rear subframe this week. I wanted a second so that I could modify one with a gk tech anti squat reduction kit during the winter, and still be able to keep the car a roller so I can back it out of the garage if needed. I will also be caging it this winter. More on that later. Lastly, Speedtek still hasn't given me diddly squat. Every week for the last 4 weeks, they have been saying next week. They told me Friday to expect a shipping label that day to ship my two bad sets of ring and pinions back and nothing. There's definitely been more contact since I started destroying their company any chance I get on Facebook, but it's still just words without action.   
    • Have you done a pressure test on your intake/piping? Cleaned your IACV and Cold start valve?
    • Bit of a dump of ones I saw on my trip. I also have a heap from daikoko but that’s technically not  on the street 
    • i was thinking that the 2 wires that go to the sub from factory has some sort of preamp like you mentioned and also a lo Pass filter to get just bass. now that will only use 1 channel and that really should be all i need for a sub? if i was trying to put a set of speakers in the back i can understand cutting into the left and right speaker wires. i will try how im talking about doing it and if that is crap i will do it the way of all wires. thanks for the input guys.  
    • Challenging mig welding thin Aluminium pipe and trying to fit it in, having to bend and twist, but got there in the end. Fits really well and can easily get a socket wrench in there now to put it on/off. I'm in the middle of another project, so haven't installed the suction pipe yet. I'll post some pictures and results when i do.
