Got a great example of a Skyline here. First person to own it out of Japan. Always serviced and not driven hard.

Its decent on fuel, kind of its tyres and a joy to live with. However I need something I can put tools in and take down to the beach with a trailer as we are building a beach house (Gf's family). I also need something to tow the boat and my kart. In addition to this I need something that I can chuck wetsuits in the back of and kart parts etc. Thats no life for a Skyline and I can't always use my mates Hilux!

So, the cars up for sale. Heres some specs.

5 Speed manual (same 5 speed box as the R33 GTR apparently)

ATTESA E-TS AWD system (not sure if its the Pro or not, definitely might be!)

Rb25DE Neo engine. 147kW of N/A Goodness. Don't worry there is a surprise coming later in the post..

Cusco coil overs - Don't know much about them as they came on the car when imported. Japan must have very smooth roads as they are set on ridiculously hard, can be softened up but my spines adjusted to it now..

350z touring wheels. I sprayed these black with plastidip. Going to give them another coat soon, maybe a fun bright colour!

The fun part.

I have an ALMOST complete turbo kit. It includes.

  • 2x turbos. Because having a spare is always nice. Ones from an R33 one from an R32. The R32 one should be interesting as it will max out on 8-10psi. You cant go past that on high comp anyway, should come on uber fast. Would be fun.
  • Braided turbo water/oil lines and nice banjos - Overnight parts from Japan.
  • Big F off front mount intercooler
  • Turbosmart type2 BOV
  • Nissan R34 GTT/Mines ECU
  • Turbo manifold to suit
  • Dump pipe

All you need to find is a front pipe ($30) and get some intake piping made up.

I had awesome plans for this car, but my next car will get some love from me in the form of mods. Have decided to get an 88 BJ74 landcruiser (Medium wheel base, fibreglass roof, 3.5L turbo diesel at 97kw). It will do the trick with pulling stuff and ill be able to throw things in it. The gf's uncle has one I can pick up cheap but it needs some work. Time to sell the Skyline to fund it!

Before sale the car will have a new windscreen put in as well as a good service. My uncle used to be a mechanic (Now retired) so we will go over the car with a fine tooth comb and make sure everything's in A1 condition for the new owner! Will be stoked to see the car get picked up by someone who wants to turn it into a real weapon. Maybe I can convince you to have a drive later down the track! :P

There is a few bad points on the car. Nothing too big.

  • Speeky front right suspension. Took it too pedders and they said the suspension is fine just one of the bushes is a little dry and is squeeky. Can change the bush but they said they all looked fine and its probably just due to sitting in the docks for a long period of time on import.
  • Front lip has a small chunk taken out of it. Remember this lip is an option thats not on many skylines. Makes the N/A look less dorky (lets face it, most N/A's have no front or rear lip and look a little silly haha). It's about the size of a tennis ball. I'm more than happy to repair this at home as i've had a bit of experience patching up formula vees and formula fords when I wanted to be Michael Schumacher.
  • A few small hail dents on the car. Had a quote from a paint-less dent removalist. He said a 2 or 3 hundred to get them all out without needing a respray. They are very minor and never bothered me. Being a uni student I just sucked it up and lived with it.

PLEASE NOTE WHEELS ARE DEFINITELY NOT CHROME ANYMORE! :P

I'm looking for $8000 for it as is. Well with a new windscreen (current one was chipped but it cracked the other day) as well a some servicing. Comes with rego to mid next year but no RWC. More than happy for you to take your time getting a RWC. Not too fussed.

P.S This price includes all the turbo gear listed.

      A little PU bush story

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Following from this in a related by not closely-related sense... Because I was buying a bunch of other GKTech stuff, I got some rear subframe collars. The history that leads up to this is: 25+ years ago the car arrived into the country with stock subframe bushes. At some point shortly thereafter I added Whiteline pineapple rings, set up neutral, and it improved the rear end behaviour. Well, it is my vague memory that I was happier with it with them in. Less axle tramp on launches, generally better, etc etc. ~2012 it got a new non-HICAS subframe with new stock bushes. No pineapple rings. I reckon that ever since then I've been dissatisfied with the axle tramp. Recently I've been f**king around a lot with all aspects of the suspension. One contemplation has been to relocate the rear lower control arm front mount points (and do the other things needed to make that work) to improve longitudinal rear grip by getting rid of some of the stupid anti-squat that Nissan ladled into the R32. But.... before doing that I thought I'd put some collars in. And.... The collars are good. The rear sounds a little bit different, but there has been no significant increase in NVH coming up into the body. In terms of rear behaviour - expansion joints on long sweeping elevated freeway ramps that would sometimes cause the rear to jiggle around a bit, no longer seem to do so. It appears that jamming chunks of metal into the gaps in the rubber so they can't move much is a really good thing. And the launch behaviour and general forward traction situation seems to be greatly improved too. It's impossible to be really sure, because the tyres are completely shagged - they are freakishly willing to let go right now. But as an A-B test with the same tyres it certainly seems to grip up a lot better. Highly recommended to anyone who still has stock bushes.

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By PLYNX · Posted

      Bit off topic maybe but has anyone had a crack at one of those aftermarket electric compressors ? Bit of a search came up with one put out by Speedy Air Spares. Looks interesting and looks as if you'd have to run a big arse alternator. Found this out after the fact as my air con compressor packed it in and soon after my alternator ! !

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yes. Needs new ports. Usually just achieved by screwing an adapter onto them. Be aware that any AC compressor that hasn't been used in a long time will very likely have dried out seals and will not hold gas. Oh, and obviously you will require a new receiver-dryer also.

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By Ozdavroz · Posted

      Can you covert an R32's AC from r12 to r134 if the compressor/hoses etc are still all good? Pretty sure on my car the AC was degassed when it was imported  to remove the naughty r12 and save the ozone layer, and the fancy climate control system just blew air around. Was happy to drive the car with windows down back then, but now I am old and need to be kept cool

      Just to circle back here, I've sold my automatic trans to another Stagea owner in OH.
