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...

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

Yeh Leigh, 5. I'll try make some cash on it...

Mx5 lol, would lOok hilarious driving that.

Eh, I'll work it out, if exemption gets knocked back, I'll cut my losses and sell it for what ever it gets and buy a landwhale. If it doesn't get knocked back, well. Fuuuu dead aircon

lol i dont want to spin all 4 wheels, easier to buy an RB20DE and swap it in.

i dont wanna go fast, i dont wanna track it( yet) happy as long as its a skyline

you're missing the point. Your gts4 has a 4wd drivetrain. Including all the heavy bits involved which, as noted, become useless because the na won't produce enough power to drag the heavy ass body around in 4wd and the extra weight and less power will mean a barina will probably win in a drag race.

AE86 for da sidz yo!

:laugh:

sudden infant death is all the rage these days with the muzteks maccas employees?

You missed the part where I'm a red p Plater that is not interested in dragging people. Rb20det is already slow as it is

think you missed the point where even Nissan went "shit this thing is slow as, alright, lets make it standard with a turbo and not have an N/A option." You seem to want to do what even Nissan didn't want to. Shiet bitch, you mad!

hence why the R33 GTS4 and R34 GT-4 had no turbo, cos the 2.5l n/a met their power to weight ratio requirement. GTS4 and GT-4's were meant to tow shit and be passenger taxi's you took to the snow. They weren't meant to be sports cars, they got the worst of all the models, small engines, heavy drivetrain power loss, heavy chassis/suspension etc. You pretty much buy one as a daily to tow shit around, or pull almost everything out of it and replace it with GTR guts to make a GTR sedan. No one in their right mind buys a standard GTS4 and thinks it's a great sports car.

turned the car on today and its knocking from the back of the motor.

just a slight knock but it changed with light revs. :/

turned car off straight away

clearly you cant tell 100% what is smashed without pulling it down, but how much am i up for if it's just a bearing?

and what the hell should i do if it's more :/

wrecker lucky dip? refresh? rebuild?

why would it be worth any more then what you bought it for lol, i tried the same thing when selling mine, for lols i put it up for 14k, ended up reducing it to 10, and getting 9.5k for it in the end

maybe chuck it up for 6.5, if no bites in a fortnight then gonna have to put it down, also depends on how desperately you want to sell it, took me about 1 month or so to sell mine.

if anything you paid too much for that car. cut losses and sell for what you bought it for a $100 less, at least that way some cheap dropkick will buy it, just like you did.

otherwise you'll end up with a car you can't drive that you can't sell, with no money to buy another.

    • You see R34 GTRs listed for 200-300k are they really selling for these prices? Kinda seems like the same ones listed all the time. Even with R33 GTSTs looking at gumtree. You have an auto with a bitsa interior for 35k. Another one needs an engine rebuild and asking 24k. And then you have a stock in better than average condition for 45k. Nobody is ever going to pay these prices.
    • Only needed to pull out the seats, center console and gear shifter surround, took a weekend and a fair few beers. You get to look forward to finding all sorts of weird shit under the seats and carpet, I pulled out a Chinese dudes passport from 2003, 220 yen and a condom wrapper 😆
    • Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.
    • Can try Maxima. Or random Infiniti models from the same era. Good luck with your hunt, let us know what you find!
