Premo 264z Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 Hi, I've recently started parting out my R32 track car to raise funds for a new project. I want to get hold of another zed but due to a tight budget I'm going to have to start low and build my way up. I'm looking for a running zed with some rust or worst a defect. I would prefer to be able to register it in SA but if it ends up being track only I wont be upset. Any handling upgrades are a bonus and I will buy interstate if need be but price would have to be worth it once transport cost's are added. Manual preference but again I'll work with anything to get where I want to, also pre 1974 is best for ADR's I believe but I'm not getting my hopes up on using it for street. please PM or email if you have anything. daniel.priaulx@yahoo.com.au Thank you, Daniel Quote

Premo 264z Posted January 30, 2011 Author Posted January 30, 2011 Haha, yeah I'd be very impressed if I got within 3 seconds of you with a non turbo but I'll give it a shot. Just sick of changing cars all the time because the RB30/26 was unreliable and car was heavy. Good thing I sold it all, used the money from it for a 1050m2 block in Nairne and the rest of the car has surprisingly made a good profit, considering you can buy a stock 32 for $4-5k. Quote
Ledge Posted January 30, 2011 Posted January 30, 2011 Hey Depending on how much you want to spend there is a road registered track car i know of that is up for grabs . has arizona arms and wilwoods, efi l28 , cage etc. Pm me and i will give you phone number Paul Quote
Brabham Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 Hey premo, what problems did you run into with the 30/26? Asking as I was thinking of building one down the track sometime. Cheers. Quote
Premo 264z Posted February 3, 2011 Author Posted February 3, 2011 Not many problems at all. Made 465rwhp with ease on 16psi. The car had a few earthing issues and fuel delivery could have been better. But Darren at Lewis Performance Engines did amazing work on it and it was a dream to put your foot down. My main problem was buying tyres that could grip when boost came on, I just couldn't get wheels to stop spinning and I am now a bit over the whole turbo thing. I want to hear an engine roar not whistle. (also sold the engine to buy more land) Quote
handsandwhich Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 How ironic, I want to hear the whistle and not the roar and I remember making an offer on your setup when you had it listed on SAU but you ended up splitting it up. Small world Quote
Premo 264z Posted February 3, 2011 Author Posted February 3, 2011 Haha, it is small. All I've got now is a shell, some brakes, stock bits and body panels/doors. I might just take whats left to the wreckers as I've already got more from the parts than I expected, its amazing how the car without engine wouldn't sell for $4k but individual parts have made far more than that and I've still got more. I can see how wreckers make a profit, cars depreciate but the parts cost the same now as they did four years ago. Quote
