Just look under the bonnet - check the plate. The RS did come out in n/a form but I'd give it a miss - all the disadvantage of a big heavy car with only a 2L non turbo engine - if you're on a budget you would be better off with the Avenir and save up for a 2.5L RS4T.

There was a mint low km (80,000) RS4T in Manukau City just now for $6500 - you might get an OK reposessed one for about $4k to $5k if you look around. Give me a phone in Auckland if you like (09) 838 8602

I'm pretty sure you could only get the 4wd with either the RB25DE or the RB25DET. AFAIK the RB20DE was only offered in the 2WD

Just look under the bonnet for front driveshafts - but if you see an RB20 dont bother.

This looks like the best buy on Trade Me at the moment - good Km looks good in photos - haven't checked it out because I already have one:

Would be a good buy at $5k to $6k

Go for a ride in the one I posted above (in Manukau city) to see if you like it...he might go down to $5k. It won't be lightning fast but for no cost you can reroute the hoses to get a bit more boost and a bigger exhaust and gutted cat etc will make it quite zippy. You sometimes see repossessed ones being auctioned and they go for less but the Manukau City Car looks mint and i sometimes regret that mine is not as original as i would have liked.

I posted some information I got from my HyperRev magazines in a thread, here's a link: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...t&p=4120145

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.
