I have heard notional figures of AU$45k for the transmission and AU$75k for the engine (new prices) regardless of IF they can be purchased. Not that you would buy a crate motor for $75k (if you could) you would instead build something better etc.

If you have need of one and can get it cheap, grab it!

LSX-438, happen to know what a set of brakes are? Endless do a sweet adaptor kit to fit them to an older series R32/33/34 GTR.

If you were to ask for a complete OEM Nissan pad and rotor swap, i believe it will be in the vicinity of $8000 to $10,000 (and that doesnt include calipers nor lines). A full brake system would surely be $20k or more. This is for ordinary cast iron & cross drilled rotors mind you. However most people are buying aftermarket pads and rotors, which are about half these prices (and better spec too). If you have an OEM motor/gearbox/brake system and want to offload it, PM me please.

I wish...

I asked the question to see if it would be worth buying the R35 calipers themselves along with some Endless adaptors and some aftermarket discs. That would be a sweet stopping package for a 200kg lighter older series GTR (like mine).

Sorry, off topic.

So if something like this was to be wrecked you might be interested in some parts?

expensive.. weeeeee

Hey idiot, leave the stupid comments out of the thread - their not welcome here.

Judging by the posts it looks as though you're trying to get your post count up - typical. You're not contributing anything at all,

eg

Exhibit 1

Exhibit 2

Exhibit 3

:) :) :)

Don't reply with shit that doesn't contribute!!

good luck with trying to get it over here mate....im sure if you did, youd basically be able to name your price on anything in it....plus the running gear would be an awesome retro fit into something like a 240/260z :P

yes we looked at buying it must be 6 months ago or more now. hopefully it's been well stored and is still in good condition. I thought it sold on ebay US?

the stuff is only worth what someone is willing to pay. but consider you could buy a wreck in japan for around $40K (or less) and import that as a parts car and I'd consider very carefully before you spend any decent time or money bringing it out here hoping to get $100K+ for all the bits.... JDM wreck would also be more desirable as it's RHD. also, that car was pretty heavily crashed, there have been a few wrecks around with less damage going for pretty fair money.

Oh my young friend.... if only you knew how difficult that task would be. You'd swear these 35's have a brain of their own, they know what you're doing to them, even without a battery in them! lol

someone do that please!!!

i couldn't see that black wreck fetching more than 25k

are you in the states? if not id get someone who has half a mechanical brain to check it out, and id assume with the new GTR a multimeter would come in handy to check all the electrics.

Being done ...

I might just bring the engine, transmission and brakes over and see how things go from there. It's all that's really useful on the black one.

Dude. Just put a price on it & see what happens. No-one here will put there hand up unless you put your balls on the wall & see what happens. Looks like a gamble to me. These things are that fast I dont think it will be long before we see a few local ones on the market like that (of course I hope not - but lets wait & see)

20 years to catch up? Hmmm. Didnt see Porsche at Bathurst 20 years ago. (But I was too busy drag racing Holdens back then to care anyway!!!)

      I just got to work and skimmed through 61508 and 61511. I was surprised the CSA adopted both, but neither are enforced. To recap what I read, it states that in a perfect world, they should be segregated but they acknowledge that this is not industry standard and clearly mention that they allow mixing of safety and non-safety. 61511 also mentions software segregation like AB does in their safety PLC's.   Now if only I could go back to control, let alone safety over comms. In my current line of work, we're only allowed monitoring and basic control over comms. Everything critical must still be hard wired as much as possible.

      I've unfortunately never been as they're on the complete other side of the continent and another country that isn't currently letting us in as easily as they use to. I even heard their stop signs over there actually say "Stop" instead of "Arret". If I decided to trek the 48h drive, I wouldn't know when or where to stop haha. Whenever I order parts from UP Garage, I order from Japan as it's cheaper. Same with GKTech... oddly enough, it's cheaper shipped from Australia then it is the US.  UP Garage Japan operates their US leg though, unlike Tomei. If Tomei JPN had the power to close down Tomei USA, I'm sure it would be done in a day. They're two completely separate entities. Tomei JPN messed up somewhere originally agreeing to its creation and got sacked big time.

      I asked someone about this and he told me about the Audi 1.8T engine. But I think it would be difficult to swap

      I don't know that machine specifically, but I'd personally go for something with a little more kick than 130amp. Around up to 180 would be good. At the 6mm range, you're really pushing the machine hard and don't have a long period you can run for with out needing to give it a rest. Lots of MIG machines come with a regulator and hose. A lot will come with a starter roll of wire too, but it isn't too expensive to buy. I'd recommend NOT buying a massive roll too, as you don't want it sitting around FOREVER in the machine between uses and potentially going to shit. For thin sheet metal, get a roll of 0.6mm if you're doing over 3mm and above, switch over to 0.8mm wire. Even by 2mm you'd probably really want to switch. As for gas battle, it's all swap and go style now. You'll pay a bottle deposit, and then X amount to swap for a full one. I think it's like $200 or $300 for a D Size bottle upfront as "deposit", and like $110 to $150 per swap. My D size CO2/argon bottle lasts a fair bit of welding on the MIG. And I run an E size bottle on the TIG. For DIY MIG, stick with a D size bottle. If you really start to get into a LOT of welding and doing it really regularly, then upgrade. If you're like most DIY car guys, one D bottle will last you 2 or 3 years easily. I think I've been on my current bottle about 5 years. It is starting to get low, but I've been smashing it a lot more the last 6 months.

      SR20s came with cars like the Bluebird and Primera, but the RB20 never came. The ones in Turkey were either brought in specially or from abroad. That's why RBs aren't as common as SRs. And if a part breaks or I need to replace it when doing maintenance, it's harder to find parts for RBs.
