Why? I wonder would anyone want an Whiteline front bar for $100.00 when the ozzy R31 front is a bolt on affair and bigger (25mm) and better for about $50 in the local wrecker (Auto Parts Recycler)

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

Interesting outcome to this ???????????????????????????

Made the offer of $100.00 including postage & called Jon on his mobile. He claimed freight to be $60.00 and asked if I would go halves, to which I initially agreed.

But when I checked Aust Post calculator with dimensions from my own custom made & R31 front bar (105 x 10 x 37cm) the cost for regular parcel post was $20.90 on cubic measurement & weight up to 10kg?

This guy is a real gem, wants to stiff the only person showing interest in something he has been trying to sell for over 6 months & then has the audacity to say he will use it in his next coupe, when it happens???????

I think he should be given a very wide birth.

Cheers, D

We wanted me to pay $30.00 as 50% of the alleged postage when in fact it was only $20.90.

So! He wasn't doing any deals, but getting $110.00 for his bar?

The outcome is he still owns the bar AND from my recent calculations the difference between a SOLID 24mm front bar (Selby's) and the OEM R31 HOLLOW 25mm front bar is very, very, marginal and for my money, not worth the purchase at any cost, of a new 24mm solid bar.

Cheers, D

your a wheelnut ghostrider honestly...

the swaybar is still in the original whiteline box which is quite large and $60 was the price i got thru an electrical wholesaler i deal with not $20.90 which was a price u came up with...

Jon,

You're showing your maturity by how you speak now eh???????

Try looking up ebay, do a search for R30 Skyline and you will find the following product;

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Nissan-Skyline-R30-...id=p3286.c0.m14

Go check the postage calculator for Sydney 2560 and it estimates $20.00 for a full kit, that's front & rear from Victoria.

Then look at Aust Post calculator, which you were too lazy to do the first time around and quote some dimensions like 105 x 37 x 10cm and you will get a postage cost of $20.90 from post code 4305 to 2560 to a max of 10kg.

http://www.auspost.com.au/

And you want $60.00???????????????????????????????????

You have a reputation amongst some people on this forum and "wheelnut" doesn't get slightly close. We have crossed paths on ebay and you are most certainly the same here as you are there.

I don't need your bar, it was as I told you, for experimental purposes only, but I ordered a custom rear bar from Selby's yesterday and it should be a good match to the standard R31 front.

"No worries. I'll end up using it in my other coupe when it happens so no stress" ........... remember this???????

Enjoy your other COUPE you spoke of when it happens???????

If this was anything like the truth, why have you been trying to sell it for over 6 months. You even bumped this thread to generate some interest as there had been none for months.

As for Silent Shadow, don't bother with the comfy chair, coz it aint gunna happen this time. He aint worth the effort fighting with. I have posted the links for everyone to see, that he was trying to stiff me for excessive freight/postage costs.

Cheers, D

as said that was the price i was given. congratulations on finding cheaper freight.

> you also have a reputation.

thanks and i will enjoy my 2nd r30 coupe when it happens because its a longterm project and if i still have the bar than it will be used :)

    • Yeah one of the first things I out in when I started having catch can filling up issues. Still prefer to empty 1-2 times a track day rather than every session
    • You'll find this link is probably more useful  Performance Turbochargers - Garrett - G GT GTX GTW Series Turbo TBG G35 1150 map may not even get added to my list depending on how it looks, the G35 1050 already is a mixed bag for making the numbers you would expect from the compressor map due to mismatch - I don't know how another 10lb/min of compressor flow is going to make that any better.   I've left out others for similar reasons as it's already getting quite big.   In terms of Precision, provide me with legit compressor maps for them and I'll do my thing   I'll add some more of the newer Xona Rotor options are they're pretty boss, I'd take a 68mm Xona over a G35 "1150" any day of the week - or Precision for that matter.
    • Ahh got it. Well maybe install a drain for the catch can somewhere down low and accessible like a wheel well too....
    • Before you blow your car up, have you checked you've made all the correct modifications to the wiring if you're still using the RB20DE loom?   Some things to look at: The pin used for the map sensor on the RB25DET, is the same pin used on the RB20DE for the Ring Gear Crankshaft Position Sensor, no idea what you've got it plugged into now. The turbo pressure control valve solenoid you're talking about on the RB25DET, the same pin is used for the Variable Air Intake Control Valve on the RB20DE.   The factory manual has the wiring pinouts in it for you to check everything. It also has the diagnostics process to read codes out. In addition, there's a great table that shows what sensors and what actuators not functioning will relate to which signals. And Nissan confirm the as everyone else has from experience, the Solenoid being disconnected won't cause a fuel cut. However, the turbo pressure sensor being missing / wrong, WILL cause a fuel cut. https://www.nicoclub.com/service-manual?fsm=Skyline%2FR34-Workshop-Manual-English.pdf
    • I've been hunting info on the G Series II - this is best I have found so far(Link below). Still waiting on the G35-1150 comp map, kind of very keen   So how do we go about getting precision on that little table of yours ?   https://turbosbytm.com/sites/default/files/product/technical-info/Garrett-G-Series-II-Product_Flyer 25 30 35_1.pdf
