Hi all.

I have no idea if this is in the right section so if its not, please advise or move.

Due to unforeseen circumstances, I'm going to have to sell my car to buy a 4wd of some description.

I just need to figure out if I should part it out or sell whole so I'd like some opinions.

It is a r31 pintara wagon sleeper,

Mod list:

S1 rb25 rebuilt literally 3 weeks ago.

Eagle h beams

Cp 86.5 forgies

Acl race series mains and big ends

Arp head studs and rod bolts

Head rebuilt with new seals etc all Nissan stuff.

800cc injectors

Atr43g3 internal wastegate

Full 3" exhaust

Clutch is custom exedy sports tuff but with modified pivot point and ceramic button plate

Rb25 turbo box

Bw lsd with 28 spline axles

Tein front camber adjustable coilovers

King springs in rear

Full rose jointed castor arms etc

R33 brakes

Gts wheels (r31)

Walbro 460l e85 pump

Haltech e11v2

Car looks completely stock apart from wheels. Stock interior, the lot.

In fact I have been pulled over for rbt and they haven't even looked at the car.

Was setting up for e85 but running in on 98 so still not tuned on e85.

So far it has had a street tune and done 500km and seems to go really well.

Awesome car for someone who wants a quick car but also needs

Something that is a bit practical and can take kids. Has tow bar etc.

Fully engineered and legal.

Cheers.

I don't know what your time-line is Lucas to procure that 4WD. Do you need the 4WD urgently?

If it's not urgent, you can operate with Plan A for about 3 months to sell this modified 'sleeper' as an entire car. You must have envisaged this whilst you were upgrading surely?

I say 3 months because December and January are very 'slow months' for car sales - even if they're used cars.

If you need your 4WD urgently, you might try Plan A for just 1 month until mid-December > switch to Plan B and part it out.

Methinks you'll get more money that way, and avoid the 'slow months'.

Fair call Terry. There is no real urgency to the sale. The need for the 4wd is purely due to acquiring a holiday house that is only accessible by a 4wd and my wife is not keen on driving a 4wd again. I could probably have a 4wd and this car but I'm not really in a position to do that right now. Only problem is that I have pretty much zero idea on how much my car would be worth.

    • It only looks tidy, as most of the stuff that was on the whole back wall, is now in the trailer to go to the tip, or has been shoved in my 2.2x2.4m "Spare parts room", and now I can't get to anything in there Ha ha ha I could definitely do with a bit more space, but I'd just end up with your problems I'm going to enclose the car port beside the garage, and move a lot of stuff into it I think. OR... It will be setup as a fabrication area, and the main garage will have parts storage in it. I'm not sure yet... Need some pictures of that big shed you've got with the bikes and Skyline in
    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
    • Modern oils are amazing. Add tyres to that as well.
