Bought this little manual beast quite a while ago with the intention to do it up and perhaps use it to learn how to drift.

Gave it a major service, fixed up a leaky exhaust and got it a new paint job. Thoroughly cleaned it inside and got some seat covers. All up spent quite a bit of money on it.

Obviously it pains me to see it go, but I'm moving and there's no room at the new place for it.

Goes like a dream. Driven it locally a little and when I bought it, I drove it back from Melbourne without a problem. No knocks or rattles or anything. No problem shifting gears. No known problems at all.

Located in Adelaide Hills.

The only downsides of the vehicle are:

** It needs a new windscreen due to a crack (doesn't let in any moisture or hinder your sight)

** The wheels on it are from a bluebird and the front wheels rub on brake lines when at full lock

** It hasn't been registered in SA yet so it needs to go through Regency for an ID/security check (no safety check required).

$1600 ONO

Any other questions please reply to the thread or PM me.

Also, something I forgot to mention. There is a slight wiring issue (i think)

For some reason the indicators will not work if you just click the indicator arm down or up, it needs to be lightly held slightly up or down.

I imagine its just old wiring and wouldn't be too hard to fix, but its nothing I can be bothered with if I'm just selling it.

You could definitely drive it home, but no, its not registered and to my knowledge hasn't been registered for at least a 18 months.

I'm not sure whats required to organize a permit in SA or NSW, but I know to organize the VIC permit i used to get it home was very easy and quite cheap ($40ish from memory)

    • Getting a decent signal from all 6 throats is a challenge. I don't know for sure, but I suspect that the stock balance tube is not ideal for it. I have done it on an ALFA 4 cylinder (about 35 years ago, so don't ask for too many details). We drilled 4x holes in the manifold runners, put in some fittings and ran hoses to a decent sized (I think it was about 20mm diameter) pipe that ran the length of the inlet manifold. So, it was quite a decent volume. There is a "tuning" balance to be found between the volume of the common plenum on such a thing and the diameter of the pipes running from it to the runners. You need the volume to be large enough to damp out the sharp spikes in pressure signal you get as each runner gets sucked on by its cylinder, but not so large that it becomes too slow to respond to actual changes in MAP. And you need the hoses to be small enough to transmit the signal quickly, but not so small that they delay the signal. You might have to have more than one go at it, if there isn't any actual success based wisdom to be had here. Hopefully there is. Anyway, I would not do it on only a couple of cylinders. I would also not care about "permanently modifying a part". Just bloody drill holes and make stuff better. There is nothing sacred about any GTR unless it is a genuine museum piece that you shouldn't be modifying at all anyway.
    • He's still joining you, he's just delayed it and won't have the fulleh sick ITBs...
    • The strange thing is this is a URAS front bumper (or clone of it). The bumper actually does not sit flush with the GTT hood - You need the addon to make the hood 'long' enough to reach the bumper. I have no idea why they didn't incorporate this piece into the bumper itself.. instead of sticking it to the hood instead.
    • Another thought on this OLD topic: When you paint your bonnet lip, leave a small unpainted back lip/line along the back of the lip, where it rests on the bumper. That way, the line in the back is much more prominent than the gaps in the front/under the lip - and it breaks the hood-to-bumper connection at the "correct" place, when comparing to a GTR. I'm gonna do this with mine this week, so stay tuned for pics!
    • So I'm in the final stages of assembling my single turbo RB30/26 and had a question regarding MAP reference points.  I've seen several recommendations such as tapping the cylinder 2/3 ITB, tapping the intake manifold at cylinder 2/3, or using a point on IAC. First two are doable but require permanently modify part and the third is "out" as I plan to delete the IAC.  All that to say my question is can I used the "bleeder" in the center of the ballance tube as a MAP Reference? I'm running a catch can so I don't need it for the PCV system. My thought process is it "pulls" from all 6 cylinder, and it's between the ITB and the cylinders making it ideal for MAP reference according to what I can find. Thoughts?
