I'll be completely honest in saying that I am genuinely interested. It sounds like you have some good gear on the car. For me my biggest concern is the fact that you say the engine has forged internals, is about 4000km's old but doesn't run. You also have no receipts for it and your not even sure who built it. It would go a long way if you found out more about it....and got it running. What about the clutch and re-inforced gearbox? I'm not trying to rain on your parade here, I am genuinely interested but without receipts or proof of the engine build etc it will be very hard to persuade me that they are what you say they are. If you can dig up a bunch of receipts or a lot more info on the engine etc post it on here.

hey man your not raining on my parade at all but the engine does not have reciepts because i bought it without them second hand and i will have then engine running when i get home. next ive put it up for sale just to see the interest (not running) and just so u know this engine was in a laurel and i bought it running and fitted it to my car i know the problem (chassis earth) and its all good either way if your interested or not this car will prove its self anyhow and for this cheap it will sell cheers anyway mate

Have you gotten the engine running and done compression tests? I'm buying an R33. The engine in it has only done 130,000 kms and still really strong however a forged motor and reinforced gearbox wouldn't go astray. Do you have any history on the rebuild? Still in touch with the person you got it off?

I need some details. Also....where are you? I'm in Brisbane.

    • So my R32 GTST has been sitting around at my old mum and dad's place for a few years now...and it's time to bring it home. Main issue I have is that she hasn't been started in about 5 years or so, so I'm not too keen on just kicking it over and hoping that RB20 reputation for being un-killlable extends to long periods of neglect. My plan is to get it running there so I can move it around,  then get it towed back to my place where I can start working on it properly. The old folks driveway is a bad place to start a project like that. I'm getting old too and also haven't stuffed around with cars since forever, so kinda learning this stuff again. So far I've siphoned out all the shitty old fuel and topped up the coolant (thought it was fully dry but took 2 litres to fill the radiator). Planning on hitting the rusty rotors with some brake cleaner in case the tow truck driver gets a bit gung ho loading it up. As far as oil, it's got plenty although it's now dark in colour and obviously needs a change sooner rather than later. Was doing some YouTube research and was planning to hand-crank the motor from the harmonic balancer with a 37mm socket and breaker bar, removing the spark plugs and spraying some "fogging oil" in the holes but there's not much room to get in there with the radiator fan right up against it. Jacking the car up takes too long and I can't leave it half done between visits. So now I'm was thinking of cranking a few times it using the starter (removing plugs and spraying oil first). Reckon there's any chance it will do more damage that way if something's stuck inside the motor? Should I really change all fluids completely before I go any further? Grateful for any other advice you guys have to get her going safely too.      
    • Well, that's just wierd. Amongst a string of seemingly benign introduction and request for help threads, we have this one with a link.... to another, unrelated thread inside this forum. Colour me suspicious.
    • Sorry to say, I think that is a pretty long shot on this forum.....
    • sorry, "info" from Lumley here: https://www.lsvcarinsurance.com.au/about-nrma-insurance
    • So it looks like Lumleys are closing other than in Victoria, with the kind offer that another brand from the evil IAG multi-glomerate (NRMA) might offer insurance under their price and conditions if they want to, as an alternative. Lunmleys was good for us because they covered JDM and USDM imports, had 2 car "stable" insurance (ie, insure many cars but max of 2 can be driven at once), covered mods, reasonable overall prices. So, with them gone, who else should I consider? Shannons is last on my list, we used to be insured with them until we found they were helpful at taking premiums but much less helpful at claim time.
