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 =(

    • It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂
    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
