thought Id add my sh*t heap, got it for jack, and spent about 3 months fixing and replacing everything just to get a roady, hardly anything worked on it, but everything does now

so it did have a torque monster RB20de/auto, up until today, to be replaced by a 20det + 5spd,

so here it is

lol currently i have no power steering, trying to source the high pressure non hicas power steer lines but no one seems to have any, my little tiny missus has arms like hercules now. Alot easier with 205 on the front rather than 235 previously.

Logan aint to far. Im just off johnson road.

leather seats? :down:

I wish I could have grabbed them, they were there but that car was in New Zealand, I just brought back the door trims and a big box of spare parts

Just to add since I'm from NZ cefiros/laurels are so common that they are worth nothing, 70% of the laurels are diesels, wreckers get them take some parts off them then crush the rest! :ermm:

the series 3 cefiro I got the door trims off of was a mint running 1993 2.5 SE, the wrecker paid $250 for it! it failed a roady for a leaking P/S pump and the owner just wanted it gone

that sort of shit happens day to day there since 50% of the cars there are imports never thought about it until I moved here and im now cringing,

If you end up getting rid of that auto centre console to go manual and have the surround (top bit), let me know. I might even have a manual centre console + armrest you can have in exchange.

I do, I have 2 auto gear stick surrounds (which will only fit series 2 and 3) and I was going to modify a R32 console I have, but if you have the factory stuff that will fit mine, deals on!

    • Hey lads, reviving an old thread.  As an update, since the last time replied to this thread, ive done mostly suspension. Havent touched the motor except for maintenance. Though upon changing spark plugs, found out i had splitfires pre-installed! Updates: - Got me some stock airbox top cover and snorkel to fit onto the original intake. Should be free of defects - Bought a set of R34 GT-T brakes (not installed yet, going to rebuild + respray in champion blue + white 'Nissan' text) - Bought the last set of bilsteins from @Sydneykid and had them installed. Has been making some sounds on the rear but hopefully should be sorted out after this New Year break. - Regreased front caster rod bushings (poly bushes..) - Rear upper camber arms - Whiteline sway bars (BNF27Z 22mm + BNR11XXZ 24mm).  The rear sway bars are a bit short (ive read 50mm else where) but was still able to get them in.  Anyhows, I reckon suspension is sorted now. Maybe replace bushes (do have a set of front upper control arms from SK not installed yet) but should be okay for now. From now, I'm wanting to start working on the motor, drivetrain etc etc. Still debating on the order to go on and what to buy etc but: - ECU ( Haltech or Link ( Link states that it dont support A/T or AWD functions... Can anyone attest to this? ) - Highflow turbo ( ATR43ss2 ) - Intercooler ( Not decided yet, but cant find many good afoordable ones. Toshi says to opt for crossflow Japanese. Bit difficult this one, unless I get a returnflow Blitz from JJ? ) - Injectors ( Any recommendations ? I do have a nismo FPR ( Thanks SK ) ) - Seats - Tune by either Toshi or DVS To be fair, I did consider just keeping the stock turbo and nistuning it. Sat in a mates stock N, that had something like 200kw, and I reckon that felt more than enough. Maybe I should just go this route ahhaha. Too many choices.... Planning a trip down south, so wanting to just clean things up and make sure it gets to and from in one piece. Anything else specifically I should do before ? Cheers lads  
    • Must be for the car’s lucky charm 🤷🏽‍♂️ She runs fine, but it just seems to take about 1L less. Maybe I’ll have the oil sump dropped at some point to check if there is anything 
    • Hmmm interesting. Mine is the exact same and clearly the right one.  The mystery of the engine oil being full after 3.5-4L continues
