Wait so what happend ? Why's this guy selling it again I was interested in buying.it before when Marcus was selling it but didn't have the funds ready I would still like to own this car but I'm suspicious now about why he's selling it already... anyone know?

When I sold it was a truly genuine n super clean car, but $12000 is ridiculous. Go get it checked out by a mechanic that u know, make sure all the paperwork he has obtained for fmic etc is legit then throw him an offer. I sold it to him for $8k no RWC n 1 month if rego. So I'm guessing the car has now 12 months reg and he reckons he spent $2k getting it roadworthy. So ask for the receipts for that, then make him an offer?

Marcus.

I spoke to him as I was keen on it, I asked him twice if he had an engineers for the fmic and he said its not needed because it used standard mounts or something. It doesnt make sense as they obviously don't come with a fmic standard. He told me he got defected and had to get it cleared so got his mechanic to sign a stat dec saying it used the stock mounts or something (didn't make much sense), but thats not an engineers cert so you can still get done for a hole cut for the cooler.

In all honesty I wouldn't bother with it, he seems to keen to sell it.

I never had an issue with the car, just didn't wanna leave it at the train station lol but yeah me n my mate installed the fmic...cut the reo...cut a hole under the battery tray...definitely not legal lol

    • No need to replace the cover if it is still intact (not worn through). It would be worth checking the balancer for matching marks on the rear, but I'd assume the balancer was loose at some stage. The cam timing marks look fine, once you put the new belt on you can only be right or a full tooth out
    • Disconnecting rods! must have been an unpleasant surprise...
    • So been ocd with timing mark but checked from few angle and seems both cam are on and crank is matching as well to the slot on sump and crank pully   i noticed crankshaft cover has been robbed as per attached pic. Any ideas why? Could my balancer or harmonic be on its way out? should I replace the cover? https://ibb.co/ZR1JFYRR
    • So now doing the change and first time dealing with rb so little nervous giving engine power and potential for screwing it up When you align all marks and then remove crank bolt, timing move little I assume you can put the bolt back in once you have removed the pully to get timing to where you want?   here is pic of my both intake and exchust cam aligned, depending on angle you look they seem to be either aligned or a half tooth or so out. Any thoughts? Should you angle your face and look at each mark that way as if looking straight rather than from above as it can be misleading   <a href="https://ibb.co/ZpnhcvbF"><img src="https://i.ibb.co/HfWrGR9b/IMG-4447.jpg" alt="IMG-4447" border="0"></a> <a href="https://ibb.co/4wm2wn4q"><img src="https://i.ibb.co/JWBqWwr1/IMG-4445.jpg" alt="IMG-4445" border="0"></a>   https://ibb.co/ZpnhcvbF https://ibb.co/4wm2wn4q
    • Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy Haven't really thought of that yet, but you are right. If the hose was damaged it should be absolutely pissing by now. I'll put some heat sleeve around it for good measure since I'm already removing the line anyway.  Maybe I'll put on some of the stock hardlines if I ever fully remove the turbos again. Maybe when T51R modding the compressor housings? Might be a fun mod on GT28s for that "fake single turbo" effect.
