Hey guys im new to this site. I was jus wondering how much my r31 gts skyline is worth? Its a 88 model aussie 4door silhoette GTS skyline says its number 64 out of how ever many(ive got told 200)? got all plates under the hood n got the SVD badge on the dash sayn number 64. However it doesnt hav rb30 in it nemore as its got a n/a 25(apparently done by nissan). 5 speed manual with reco'd diff and new pedders racing suspension. Im curious bout the suspension cuz it has the main outside coil then a inner coil then strut jus wondering if its expensive aswell? Im willing to sell as is or im putn my turbo 30 motor and box in it n putn it on road!

Yeah i no it aint worth anything with 25 thats why im selln the motor n putn turbo 30 back in unless i can find a gts motor for it. I got it with the 25 n im tryn to get it bak as close to original as possible unless i get the rite offer for it as is!!!!

Why sell the N/A 25 to put a turbo RB30 in? There was no RB30ET nissan's produced either. It would be easiest(and closest to original) to get a cam regrind to GTS specs and an aftermarket exhaust........

Unless you can find the original engine & ECU, your car is worth SFA.

As someone said, why toss a perfectly good Nissan RB25DE to put in an GMH derivative RB30ET. And there is no way your car came fitted with the RB25DE ex factory.

Why don't you just turbo the RB25DE??

Where did you get this vehicle? As I bought an RB30E GTSI engine off a guy in Narrelan, that was doing this same conversion to his GTSI some years ago when I was going to do a monster RB30DET conversion into an MR30 Ti sedatch.

D

Yeah i was thinkn it aint worth nothing thats y i posted on hear n asked! I never said it came factory with a 25 it jus got told it got converted by nissan. Im putn 30 bak in because i got a rb30DET n turbo box for it. Im over turbsin n/a's as i got another aussie 31 i drive n ive been threw 3 motors in the last 6 months due to crackd heads n head gaskets(from not putn thicker gasket on as i know). But yeah if its best for me to keep 25 i cud do so but im jus thinkn i cud wind more boost into the 30DET n use bigger turbo? Im open to suggestions thats y i posted on hear.

you want to go 'slidin' in a gts? seriously go get S13 or a VN or whatever sub-5K smoke machine you wantto terrorisethe streets in.

ning nong.... just get it back to factory spec and sell it in the conditon it deserves.

Its not that hard if you think about it.

Anyone wanna buy it for 4k. Its got adjustable racing suspension n good tread perfect motor n box. Only thing body needs is one drivers side door strip n wing! No dints n only 2 50cent peice rust spots on whole car. Im willing to let it go!!!!!!!!

    • I have a 6 boost manifold and it has loads of bends etc. turbo has a cover however manifold doesn’t so I started to wrap what I could without taking turbo off. Very restricted area   are you stating wrapping could lead to cracking weld? Is that because heat is retained?    i have a exhaust gas temp right after turbo and it hits 700degree or 800 at times.   there are areas which is impossible to reach with fibre glass cloth. Is there anything I could apply such as the photo shared earlier which would formulate around exhaust pipe in difficult to reach areas, sort of like aluminium foil flexible to shape it in place?   i think from earlier reply you mentioned acl? Is this what you meant?   https://www.nstparts.com/product/acl-heat-shield-700x275     photo of my engine bay   https://ibb.co/9grHsMN https://ibb.co/bXC8KRM https://ibb.co/KV3kGZc   I am trying to cover bottom of the exhaust manifold which joins the turbo. Only way is to take turbo and possible manifold out as it also touches the engine mount which I don’t fancy doing
    • So....I managed to fix the belt coming off problem, but unfortunately i destroyed my oil pump. While testing and hitting my rev limiter a bunch, my oil pump took a shit. I actually heard it break. In my great wisdom i decided to hit redline 5 times (original plan). Lowered it to 7500 for the soft limiter. Normally it would come off on the first go. The 6th time I hit the limiter the pump broke and as i began accelerating again and hit it the 7th time, oil pressure dropped and the protection kicked in. It actually made a "tink" as if i dropped something hollow.   The motor is pulled and should be rebuilt and put back in 3 weeks. No bearings were spun and i could have gotten away with simply replacing the pump, but since i had to pull the motor....might as well build it   I made a billet tensioner and the belt stayed on without getting frayed. I also made one for a friends R33, but I was thinking of using a hydraulic unit to keep constant pressure on it when the belt stretches.
    • Yeah 98 for me, and 6.7/100 was my actual usage. On the downside the bloody thing still isn't running properly but at least they hybrid system is happy now. It starts but missfires like a bastard, and isn't throwing any code except "missfire". Thanks scoop. I did notice the AFMs are reading quite different at idle 1.33v and 1.67v so 25% variance (and have both changed and swapped them, the issue stays on the driver's side afm) so I'm looking for exhaust restriction (mouse nest?), compression issue or (hopefully not, no physical damage seen) wiring issue. Throttle might also be an issue but that is harder because you can't swap them side to side and not cheap to fire the parts cannon at.
    • I hope you're right and it somehow justifies it's existence!
