guys, I will post prices after I find out how much I can buy the car back for, hence the EOI. If it is a good price I'll pass the saving on =)

bbenny the engine is complete. May seperate. honestly haven't though about prices as yet. open to offers to get a ball park idea.

MattR & others who asked - I really shouldn't be "chatting" but it may reduce the moderators work in the long run so no one has to ask anymore.

The car was left in secure parking under some units in Sydney. i went away with work. Came back to find the car sitting on a spare tyre and jack. they broke into the car park with an oxy torch, proceeded to break into the car beside mine from which they stole a jack and spare tyre. and the rest is history. Alarm was disabled blah blah. the police said it was a professional hit. they didn't find a single finger print.

Interest shown for the following depending on price and time frame...

Bocsh 044 pump

NISMO adj fuel reg

momo steering wheel-damaged, boss, nismo horn button

Adj camber rods (front)

custom polished catch can (legal style)

Nismo side indicators

Time frame in not an issue. CAR HAS BEEN WRITTEN OFF. Received the call a few minutes ago. Please PM me with offers. Whole car available, but has been added to written-off register and is needed to go through RTA before reregistering.

The stacker is fine, I'll find out the part no when i get the car back.

those who have Pm'd standby on prices pls....very busy atm. i will reply I promise, may just take a couple of days.

The engine may come complete, depends on who wants what. I will sell on a first in best dressed policy...if the price is fair it's yours. the engine was compression tested @2500km and all 6 pots were within 1psi of each other. Catch can has NEVER been emptied since rebuild even during run-in. Before I blew my engine it would quarter fill a month. It has been six months since rebuild and the catch can still doesn't register oil at the lowest mark.

Head was also fully reconned with new valve stem seals, 3 angle valve jobs, etc, etc to as new condition. Engine also has a HKS head gasket (1.2mm). Compression has been dropped .3 because of the modified squish zones(which can be seen in the pic) Pistons and rods were all balanced together. rod bearings replace with exact crank specs -not universal aftermarket. Bores were 360 degree verniered(check for ovalness) and lightly honed/de-glassed for ring bed-in. All exhaust head bolts have been replaced as the have a habbit of breaking no 6(like mine had).

i am more than happy to help you guys pull bits off. I have had ever part of the car apart myself at one stage or another. Just a pitty I could see the engine at full potential =(

    • Take a couple of the big ones back to "work", leave them in the big bin.   Will make a good boom when the garbage truck emptys it out... I've heard from another source about the boom when they had put I believe it was a 4cylinder engine in the big bins at Richmond base...
    • That idea has crossed my mind, I do a 5km walk everyday, this does take me past some bushland......I think you may be onto something 馃槈  That, plus 1 rock on every bin night might do the trick, it may take a year, but it could save me a couple of grand The only issue is the big 'Boonies", I have a few that weigh around 30-40kg, maybe they should be the first to go into the raised garden bed,  and then let the next owner deal with them....my daughter gets the joint when I kick the bucket, mums the word mate......LOL Noice......
    • Wow. Did you call the car a Nissan Skyline?
    • You're retired Mark, on bin night, go for a walk, kind of like you're doing the beep test. Put one rock in the first neighbours, come back, get another rock, go to the second neighbours, repeat over many weeks. All rocks eventually gone...
    • No chop chop of anything mate, it is what it is, plus, I don't want any air that isn't either going through the cooling stack or intake getting into the engine compartment increasing under bonnet pressure  Yeah, the Mazda Speed aftermarket intake above is less than ideal for multiple reasons, the requirement to remove the bumper every time you need to service the filter, and also smaller in diameter than the NC1 OEM one Weirdly, Mazda Speed is part of the Mazda motorsport division, "form over function" and $$$$$ for Mazda from unsuspecting punters I suspect  After some googling about them it seems they added no power, but do increase some induction noise Meh In other news, the electricians have been busy today at the house, and are back tomorrow finishing up all the security stuff and exterior lighting, they also added some lighting on the garage ceiling, which will come in handy when working in the garage when it's not freezing out there My Birdies raised garden bed also arrived today as well, which I'll put together and place tomorrow, it's a big tall Bessie, 74cm high, 92cm wide and 214cm long, this will come in handy as I am starting to get "stockpiles" of good soils from doing landscaping, some of the clean rock, namely the river stone, will go into the bottom of the bed for drainage, as well as the old Apricot tree that was out the back,  and when it's full, I'll grab another one, I will be growing enough veggies to keep me both busy as well as supplementing the shopping list I'm also awaiting another quote for a new Colourbond front fence, as the "1980 style cemented in rock edging" that was there and "fashionable at the time" looked arse, and my god, the amount of cement used to fix the rock was insane, it took 1.5 days for me to break out 12 meters of the stuff by hand, trim the bushes back to the fence line and dump it out the back of the joint to deal with at a later date,I will soon need a skip bin to tip it all Unfortunately they did alot of the cemented in rock around the joint, which I hate, so a few pallets of retaining wall blocks for around the front and back where the cemented in rock is will be required to bring it up to a standard, and look, that I will be happy with 12 meters worth of rock and cement Finished smashing the fence line and ready for a fence to be installed, yes, the lawns need some TLC and thickness, the previous owner trimmed the grass to the roots 馃槩, the TLC I can provide, and nature over time will do the rest And there's probably about another 40 meters worth of this landscaping abomination left to do around the front and back gardens, I'm guessing maybe 3 or 4 tons worth, tip fees for this will be a killer Meh, all in all I'm having fun and keeping busy, plus, it's good PT
