Seller came back with a offer that was good enough to accept. just putting some last minute vice clamps on his nuts to squeeze a better price.

FUCK YEAH!

L28 board to 3100cc

Do it!

[CrispyFries]

Just bored to 3.1 or does it have the ld28 crank as well?

[Count Grantleyish]

Have to use LD28 crank too

[funkymonkey]

He said it was a kakimoto 3.1L. not sure if it's a genuine one or a replica using LD28 crank, honda pistons etc.

said I'd buy pending on the mechanic inspection, gotta get the guy out there into hickville country japan. will know then.

apparently makes 215rwkw not bad for an old clunker.

[Mohsen]

wow. remember when you gave me shit for almost buying a c110. yeah. f**k you old man!

congratulations. looks mean as!

[funkymonkey]

lol i completely forgot I had inquired about this car, until it got brought up in the "300zx vs GTR... engine out fun" thread. Couple of phonecalls later and I jizzed my pants.

If it's genuine 3.1 kit, you're essentially sitting on gold mine...

I've owned one before in the C10. Didn't realise it was a gen until I opened the bonnet (this was back in the day when we bought shit sight unseen). Hence the $5000 profit once it got here.

[Count Grantleyish]

Does Kakimoto use spacer plate between block and head on their 3.1l kit for L28?

I know they do that on RB26

[funkymonkey]

tooooo much vinyl...

[R-SPEC]

[funkymonkey]

[(OO)SKYLINE(OO)]

[Mohsen]

you should own a regular car before you take on the headaches of a classic.

put it this way, this car's gonna be driven hard once a week. if it breaks it'll go into a workshop while I drive a daily. you, on the other hand don't have that luxury.

[Count Grantleyish]

^^^ So true

[funkymonkey]

Z31 done ghetto, but done right. Epic use of 180SX BN kit.

[(OO)SKYLINE(OO)]

^^ Could pass as a 180SX / FC RX7
