Still for Sale

Hi all, 

I have my GT4 anniversary wheels in black for sale. You don't often see these wheels for sale!

Pretty good condition, though not perfect. Up close shots of any scuff marks shown.

All wrapped in Goodyear Eagle F1 Assymetric 3s. Fronts have about 4.5mm left while the rears are basically on the limit. 

Looking at £450 ONO

Would prefer collection, but could look at delivery if need be. 

Wheels located in TW1, Twickenham, London.

Current state after a quick wash

Hey people,

A while back, my HR died on me. 

Cruising on the motorway in 6th when I suddenly lost power. No grinding, no horrible noises, just loss of power. No engine management light either.

Next day, it would start but only on 1 bank.

At first I thought it was the Cam Position sensor as it did eventually give me an engine light and indicated the camshaft position sensor. Bought brand new Nissan OEM sensors (replaced all of them). Still the same. 

Checked fuel, fuses, wiring, etc. Noticed my spark plugs had a bit of oil on them so I replaced the rocker covers. Checked the cams themselves for any obvious damage. Everything looked good.

So... timing chain?

Eventually, I took the cam timing chain cover off and inspected it. All looked good. Turned the crankshaft. All looking good.

Until I eventually noticed (through my oil filler) that my intake cam wasn't turning!

So yeah. Intake camshaft broken. Took the rocker cover off and inspected it again. No damage there! The damage is right by the camshaft sprocket!

I guess, what I'm asking is... Should I fix?

I can't do a compression test. I can't put the chamshaft timing cover back on because the sprocket isn't sat where it should be anymore. I can't do a leakdown test as I don't have a compressor and no real means of having one either...

However, my intake valves all look good. Due to where the camshaft snapped, all the valves are in the highest position and fuel was collecting behind them. Used my beroscope down the spark plug holes and looked at the pistons. From my limited knowledge... They look fine.

I'm a little bit hesitant to buy a new camshaft (would a used one be a bad thing to do?) and hope for the best without getting some thoughts from those far more knowledgeable than me!

I feel like it would make sense to do the timing chain, water pump and gallery gasket(it has been done before, but considering it's just there and it's a £20-£30 part)) since it's done circa 190k if I was to do it all...

I'd rather do the work myself as money is a bit tight! Fairly competent. Did my entire clutch system last December when the CSC failed 😅

Or should I actually take it to Horsham/Japex, etc and get it looked at properly... Just money is tight atm!

Thanks in advance for any help!

This is it starting before I took the cam timing cover off

Vids of the pistons...

Can I get some details and photos please? I have gt4 wheels in black

No worries 

I have a Richbrook universal aerial. I bought it to replace mine a couple of years ago but ended up blanking it since I don't listen to the radio. It's about 12cm long.

This one:

I'll take them. Can collect too! 

Hey guys,

Looking for a drivers side front wing in g41 black for my HR.

Live in Watford but work all around London and sometimes Portsmouth and Cambridge!

Interested in the Kazz 2way lsd...

Also, I bought Eibach antiroll bars of someone and organised my own courier as I wouldn't have been able to collect.

Cost me circa £25 for next day delivery

This was posted on one of Facebook pages last week.

Apparently the reg does check out as an HR, so it's most likely had a front end smash and repaired on the cheap.

The company are also very dubious/scammy

I'd like one! 350z for me please

@Adrian@TORQEN has the sale ended? I was going to buy the Injen dual cold air intake in black for my HR but it's gone back to full price? 

Hey guys,

So my HR has the built-in sat nav and since I have a double din headunit with android auto it is totally useless to me.

Now I know finding someone who's selling the cubby and console cluster is like rocking horse @*!#, but there is a guy who's wanting to take his HR back to standard and is willing to swap his consoles cluster (with the cubby) over for OEM. His has been dipped (if I don't like the design, I can just change it later). So his (i'm assuming) didn't have sat nav from factory.

Now, I've spoken to him about it and he's keen to do it. But obviously on the condition that the swap itself is fairly easy and fairly straightforward.

So my question is, do HR's with no sat nav from factory have the plugs, etc, built in already and it's just plug and play or is it quite a bit more involved? Are they coded to the car like the headunits? I know with the dvd behind the driver's seat is a bit more involved in terms of actually fitting it on since you have to take several panels off, but what about the sat nav? Does anyone know?

Hi guys,

Needing a front bumper and drivers front wing in G41 "ebisu" black for my HR. In as good condition as possible! Wing must have no dents!

Based in Watford, travel into London often and sometimes Portsmouth...

Hi, Are these just for looks? I think I've seen others (stillen?) that says it helps with cooling or something?

As title suggests, I'm looking for a drivers front wing in ebisu G41 black. I've got the HR model

Based in Watford but work all over London and sometimes near Portsmouth. Going to be up in Manchester this weekend and next weekend if that helps so I can collect from there!

Needs to be in perfect condition!

Ah that's a shame. I'll just hold out until an HR one comes up. Ta.

Same as the HR? I have the cubby but just need the top section to fit it so I can remove the sat nav...

I hope this is true! 

LewisH, let me know how you get on - I’ll be prepared for a letter on the doormat when I get home just in case. 

From memory, there's like a standard letter that you fill in some blanks and send it off. Some people ignore it and they eventually go away. But you'll get a few letters. 

Got one for staying at a services on the m6 for like 10 minutes too long. Never paid it.
