Hey mate was sorry to see that beautiful car in the wall. Um just a tip may want to list a starting price for the car in your add. Good luck with the sale mate. I know if you contact FATZ he might be interested.

So sorry to hear.

Yes and if you do wish to sell items separately, you can PM me a price on all exterior items (except for the Kranze of course).

I can easily pick up from southern suburbs.

Regards Terry

So sorry it was a lovely car, you would be better off stripping it for parts prob make more cash, I have space and a hoist if you decided to and needed a hand

Thanks mate, I appreciate the offer...

Wow man that sucks...would hate that to happen to me when mines ready...

If you decide to part I would love the n1 side skirts pm me if u do I don't live too far from peakhurst as well

Tez has beat you to it unfortunately :P

We nearly have enough hands to take advantage of Scott's kind offer and strip this car to help a brother sell his car; albeit as parts!

Entrepreneurial Suggestion for a Win-Win :- I can approach Performance Imports to come and do an article called, "How Long Does It Take To Strip A Thief-Magnet?"

With PI doing an article with stop watch and camera in hand, it can be all witnessed for a mag feature. Meanwhile, all workers (aka buyers) work as feverishly as they can to pull the car apart - but as incentive to create some sort of record, the crew pays $10 per hour to a charity eg Cure Brain Cancer Foundation.

Win-Win??

Btw, all buyers will be searched as they leave Scott's workshop and if you are caught with Scott's 'socket in ya pocket', you need to donate an extra $1K! :P

Terry cool idea you certainly are a great ideas man. I wonder if that was to happen maybe we could all get any pictures we may have of 8th sin it's her undamaged glory for the magazine article , cause damn she was pretty

OK, we're trying to get this thing off the ground.

Hopefully we'll get a reply from Jason &/or Adrian soon, because your dilemma I know will be, "What if someone comes along in the meantime and wants the whole car?"

    • careful when running the car after a boil over. Ive heard you can lose enough coolant that it won't show the right temps because of too much air in the system (or something like that). Make sure the levels are good before trying again.  Maybe a mobile mechanic can come have a look with their scan tool ?
    • OK, just for some extra clarity - there is more than one option at Frenchy's. 1. You can buy the whole kit - with or without the actual compressor. The whole kit includes mounts, hoses, condensor, etc. That's either ~$2200 or ~$2800. No surgery required with this option. 2. You can buy just the bracket (~$600), or the bracket with the compressor (~$1200). Either of this or the above option "without the compressor" is if you already have an Echo comp or you are able to source one locally. Whatever the case, in this option, you will need surgery done on your hoses to adapt to the new compressor. When I said "the Frenchy's kit", I meant the whole kit in option 1. It is obviously somewhat more $$ than a $1500 OEM compressor. But if I had to spend $1500 on an OEM compressor, I would certainly consider spending double that to renew and significantly update everything forward of the firewall. Another option is to rebuild your original compressor. My R34 comp is currently dead and I will be most likely doing that to it if the spare one in the shed is also leaky.
    • I’m thinking that’s the route I’ll  go, thanks for the input!
    • Hey all, my 2004 Nissan Skyline 350GT overheated the other day with coolant boiling and leaking out of the coolant reservoir when I was parking. So today, I started it up again just to see if it was a thermostat/head gasket issue. After about 20 mins of running, temps were normal again, no coolant was leaking out and the upper reservoir hose was warm but my engine suddenly cut off. I checked the oil dipstick and cap when it was running and there was no white foamy residue and the exhaust did not have white smoke. I tried starting up the car again but it would only crank, similar to when I had a camshaft sensor issue just that now there’s no check engine light on the dash. Any ideas? Unfortunately I don’t have an OBD2 that can read the Nissan's programme.
    • Bump on this to not make another post, had a ‘head drain’ leak on me and have the engine out as we speak. Planning on just putting a new freeze plug back in , plug the tapped holes and just be done with that headache.    Now I still want to relieve pressure to allow oil to pass down the blocks returns easier. I’ve seen catch cans with multiple vents help folks with this issue on this forum.  I’m wanting to make my own. I have some pictures here of my setup if anyone can help how I should plumb and design the catch can I would deeply appreciate it !   rb25 Oil upgrades: 1.0mm restrictor n1 pump/billet gears extended crank collar  extended sump with trap doors/w welded fitting
