That shit you listed will take half a day to do.

Theres a reason why r32's are selling cheap and you have to be pretty silly to buy one and not expecting to work on it.

Go buy a Toyota Corolla if you dont want any hassles

Patrick, want to work on it and see if it take you half day to do...

And these above aren't the full list of things need to do...

yeh leigh, i aint even turning it on.... gonna get it towed to the mech, but just gotta get some $$$ first.... so that means the professors are for sale... will put up the add in a few days :/

Sorry to hear the motor may be gone, my advice, get another motor and whack it in, easy fix.

If it's bearings, except $5k upwards as you'll need to do it while you're at it...

I remember someone mentioning driving into guardrail at 90km/h and the damage on 31 was bugger all.

That's my first R31 you're talking about. 90kmp/h into a guardrail did this (no, I wasn't driving):

I loved that car.

R31's are excellent cars, nearly indestructable, plenty of power, cheap and reliable. Just what a P Plater needs.

When/if mines goes I'll be putting a 34 neo in there, $1800 + install. Pickup a little more power at the same time.

Building an engine for a street car is like masturbating with sandpaper, somewhat enjoyable at the time. But later on when you goto use it again, its gonna hurt like a bitch.

Its defiantly from the bottom end? Something hasnt come off the clutch and its knocking..? Pulling straws I know, but you can only hope...

If I want it to be 100%, I'll need to piss at least 10k on it.

I need to piss the dynamat off, previous owner had it covered in boot including 4wd and HICAS ecu... Stereo wiring to be binned, sound deadener removed, louder exhaust required, new wheels, 100k service, rip the hicas off, list goes on...

LOL! @ Dynamat sound padding shit.

Why did you buy the car if it needed so much work?

Sidz? 0.o

Skidz Yo!

:laugh:

set it high, trawl for offers

mm ae86 ey...

so just to clarify, the rb20de minus T option is a no go, correct?

Yeah AE86 boys want top dollar for Corolla's.

Takumi Tax!

if i was a p plater.... 4age ae86/ke70/ae71 or R31

mx5's are fkn cool... BUT only cool once slammed and fitted so hard that petit would actully bar up if you drove past him

R31 would be nice for a change.

I want Kriss R31.

do you mean rb20det and remove the turbo to avoid the power to weight rule ?

if this is what you mean - if you remove the turbo it is still a gtst skyline and still registered as turbocharged from factory etc, so its technically over the power to weight rule. ie they dont weigh your car and then dyno it to see if you exceed the power/weight rule, they go off factory specs. so you could get a 6litre v8 with a blown motor that makes 10rwkw and its still be over power/weight (from the factory specs)

    • Interesting that it has 2 to the USB stick. Are the ones to the USB stick different? Or labelled anything at all? Telstra 4G is Band 28 is the long range one you want, it's 700mHz. I'm trying to do some reading on the Cel-Fi stuff, but I can't find any decent info online that makes me feel comfortable being able to work out the sort of antennas we could get away to swapping it over to. The antennas I'm starting to do some stuff with at work, are a transparent antenna. They're designed to stick onto the window. Which means you wouldn't even have the antenna outside the car. Volkswagen have just started using the exact same types of antennas on some of their new cars (And from the same antenna manufacturer). But, RF stuff is a bit of a dark art some days, and getting it wrong in your car could make for a terrible waste of money trying to swap antennas :S
    • I'm not going to lie Duncan, Saturday and Sunday were pretty rough days. The sort of work I was doing would previously have ended up with me spending about an hour and a half chatting with Neil. Firstly about something I had a question about, and then both of us rambling off on tangents.  I think how Neil did things, and his attitude to getting it done is helping me in part to get this stuff done. Then I can actually do the things I enjoy more easily  
    • Talked to another R34 GT-T owner, he said bonnet of his car once fell and slammed from full height because of strong wind at a car show and nothing was damaged or broken, so I guess I'm just overthinking some things but yeah, just making sure I'm not damaging the car anyhow cause wanna keep it for a long time.
    • I would say 100% that it doesn't matter at all. I have an Al bonnet and I drop it sometimes, push it others. Have done so for 25 years and there's no way to tell that either has caused any problems (because there are no problems).
    • yeah, a black 4 door HR, stock AT RB20DE. Was a pretty good daily summer car, it was kept in a garage during winter but previous owner was fighting rust so most of the car was covered with rust undercoating, the trunk, floorpan, it started to rust underneath so I thought it would be better to find other chassis that was taken care better and do rust preventions myself, at least I would know where keep my attention at. Plans are simple, enjoy the car as much as I can, mostly on summer of course, winter here is long and not kind to 90s JDM, I wanna keep it mostly stock like, I'm not a huge fan of GT-R look or any body kits so gonna keep it as metal as possible haha, something more balanced look wise and yeah, work on performance, I was thinking about RB25DET but 20DET actually feels fun, as long as it's reliable I think I might keep it.
