I say fix it. You know what you're in for and you'll have something very different by the time you've finished. If you part it ut, what will you get? Not that much for an R31 5 speed and I'm assuming you'll be keeping the diff.

So tie rail is just about fixed,

Hopefully got a mate comin on Sunday to weld it back in and will see how the repairs went then.

I'm Picking up Bonnet, Guards, Bumper, Apron and Grill from AR610 this weekend but still lookin for a d/side castor rod mount, RB30 g/box x-mem and slave.

Apart from that should be good to reassemble, get wheel alignment, pick up the rego sticker and go!!!

So I got that mate to tack it in probably about the end of Feb and so I've just been lookin at it sitting in there through the last 4 months of no motivation to work on any cars.

I finally borrowed a mig and welded the rail back in this weekend. The repair was really good and all the suspension bits bolted back on nicely. Looks like this car will see some more action soon!

Hi

If you still need some parts in your last post i might be able to help, I am in the ACT often and i would be keen to have a look as I have nearly finished putting a Rb30det into my 200b.

Send me a PM if you still need a few parts as it deserves to be back on the road.

Steve

Thanks for that Steve

You are welcome to come have a look at it. just let me know via pm when u might be in town.

And I agree, the car needs to be back on the road.

I really wanna get this goin as a daily so the turbo SR I bought for my 200B SSS can finally be installed!!

Cheers, Jon

But I got him to look at the B as I had finished up everything I could this weeken and couldn't get it started..

He fixed a few wiring issues and the beast came to life,

I'm stoked, it sounds awesome and runs really well cant wait to get this thing on the road.

So now I need some nice weather to do some fibreglassing and its all systems go for the RB180
