Thanks. I reduced the price again I think that's where the renewed interest has come from.

Parting the Pulsar is going good so far; the coilovers, EDFC and the whole interior went last weekend. Most performance/cosmetic parts come off this weekend and I've received deposits for them. Engine and gearbox don't have buyers yet but I assume once they're out they'll be easier to sell. Then in a few weekends time an N/A engine and gearbox go in the car, I'll get a few bits painted and tidied up and I'll sell the whole working car as an N/A SR which should interest the younger market as it'll be a quick N/A car with nice paint, kit, etc. Easier to sell it this way.

Yeah, selling N/A car is easier these days, good to know it's going smoothly.

Yeah around there Grant, it creeps up a bit then settles back down to about 17 by redline (stupid split dump pipe)

Change the dump pipe or live with the boost creep?

You have EBC?

Question for Alex / Billy:

Have you got any pics of your exhaust like underneath? thinking about going dual tips a bit like you guys cos it looks bad ass from the Tuesday meet pics, and also the other reason is so I can lower it a bit more without this HKS thing almost hitting the ground it hangs so low. Any info would be good cheers :)

:cheers:

shouldn't have any clearance issues with 3" straight pipes

mine's also twin tip/blast pipes but after that its 3.5inch and has a mid muffler. hits the ground on most roads and bumpy freeways, been told by following motorists that it makes some pretty cool sparks though when it scrapes at night :cool:

lol f**k you kents

jamie- shes got work -.- cockfest...

Someone from country Vic wants to look at my Skyline in a couple of weekends time. Sounds positive. I hope they buy it :)

good luck! if they low ball you send them my way :P

Obviously :P But I very much doubt they would judging by the type of person they are. I have my fingers crossed. There's nothing wrong with the car, anyone who comes out to see it will realise that :)

external gate gogo

no chance! turbo doesn't have too much more to give anyway, would be waste of moneyz

You have EBC?

It's manageable atm, might look into getting a new dump fabbed up eventually.. and yes EBC

Anyone is a accountant?

Cos I'm thinking of going to tafe/uni and enter as mature age entry (no year 12) and would like to know what it'd require for me to handle it.

I just finished my accounting degree :)

Great, some q's for you.

What sort of degree do you have?

To make a edge out of competetiors (When lining up for job interviews), what additional degrees would be handy?

Typically, how many hours in TAFE/Uni do you attend?

I could ask TAFE/uni these sort of q but they'll just lie to get numbers so I'd better off ask someone who have go through it.

I have got a bachelor of business with a major in accounting with professional recognition.

The accounting degree Is all you will need to get a job. The only problem is that you have to start at the bottom and then after a couple years you can move into a higher paying position as a senior accoutant. If you manage to get a graduate position it would be awesome as it's normally with a big company that pays well to pretty much train you. Also if you do 2 more economic subjects you can actually have a dual degree majoring in accounting and finance which I'm sure will help with any banking positions

Hours at uni where typically:

Lectures 4 x 1.5-2 hour lectures a week

Tutorials 4 x 1.5-2 hours tires a week

To tell you the truth I barely went to any lectures

So you're basically hitting the books or there's some sort of virtual classes?

So no point in going to lectures?

And doesn't the degree take 4 years to complete?

BTW, you went to uni or TAFE?

I used to watch lectures online but go to the tutorials as that's where you actually learn things. It's a 3 year degree and its uni

Ah ok which uni did you go?

Planning to do it in next semester or next year. First thing first, ask around asking how they run their course fees etc.

And thanks for answering bunch of questions.

    • I have seen a case where the starter motor shorting against the casing caused a massive voltage drop + so much EMI that it caused all the sensors to spew garbage data at the ECU. Test the battery to make sure it has acceptable CCA/capacity first, I have gotten "brand new" batteries before that couldn't even power a 10W light bulb without dying probably because it sat in a warehouse too long without being charged. Only easy way to diagnose this 100% is put an oscilloscope on the battery and also look at key sensors to see if there's any clues.
    • There's a bunch of smaller shops that don't quite attract Singer money but are still hiring from that same pool of labor. Those are the body shops that you go to when you can't afford a Singer, but your old Porsche needs some serious bodywork. You can't exactly take those cars to the usual insurance body shops. When I say restomod, I mean they'll do something other than 100% OEM/OEM-equivalent aftermarket parts R&R. In the Porsche world this would be stuff like taking a 50k 964, doing a bunch of deferred maintenance/unwinding the nightmares the previous owners did to the car because a lot of people that own these cars tended to be penny wise, pound foolish types, then maybe some relatively simple off the shelf modifications to things like suspension, transmission, engine, headlights, etc. and you've spent 130k USD. When even the worst houses in the poor neighborhoods are worth 1M USD and the nice houses in wealthy neighborhoods are worth 3-10M USD suddenly 130k spent on a 50k car seems cheap.
    • Hoping to get a few ideas to help troubleshoot this issue, I'll try to keep it short.  A mate popped the motor in his 2018 LDV T60 with the 2.8 turbo diesel motor. He swapped it and I was his phone a friend when he got stuck.  The new motor is in, however it won't fire. The battery is literally brand new, when you crank it the volts very quickly (say 2 seconds of cranking) drop to 8 volts and the engine stops turning over. Watching the belts, I'd say they move about 5cm before coming to a stop. We put a booster pack on, no change.  The only potential issue I'm aware of is, when we pulled the motor the grounding strap was still attached. The strap copped a thrashing before we realised what was going on. It looks okay-ish but it's going to be replaced to rule it out.  The main challenge is, I wasn't there for 90% of the work. This is his first time doing any major work on a car and he was learning as he was going. He thinks everything has been put back together properly, however I'm not entirely confident that this is the case.  It would be good to get some ideas about what else to check. The car isn't spitting any codes so that doesn't help.  I've attached a photo, because why not lol.   
    • I mean an N1 came with a minimal paint thickness compared to dealer models. It’s probably had a ton of vinyls and stuff possible a race paintjob or two over the years. you don’t buy an N1 for its stunning good looks or comfort 🤣 you buy it to send it and measure how much air you can get on the hill at Bathurst
    • Yeah, but "restomod" implies Singer and things like it, which implies drug money / trust fund maturity.
