Hi Guys, I live in Hobart, Tas and i'm Scott. Spun a bearing in my 91 GLi PINTARA and decided to go for the full big rebuild. Already totally LOVED the car so the bearing going was a good excuse to go for the rebuild. Spent nearly $8500 so far comprisiong of ITB's (individual throttle bodies), alot of head work (porting, polishing, match flowing, valves etc..), strengthened bottom end, crank polished, knife edged and balanced, boring, honing etc of the block, upgraded pistons, compression upped to 11.5:1, big cam  and the list goes on! LOL About a month off from getting it tuned and back on the road after doing the bearing last Nov (start of). Starting to get itchy feet (haha). Anyway, glad to find a site with so many nissan enthusiasts and with so much info to share!! Cya all around, Scott.(evlknvl)

Was gonna add a pic or two but... I read the "posting pics for noobs" thread but when i reply or start a thread there is no option at the bottom to do either browse/host a pic. Thought it was because I was a newly joined member and couldn't post pics yet?

Hey maybe is a bit rude for me to start a thread without introducing myself in the first place. ;D.First and foremost.My name is Jonathan.Staying in Malaysia..
I`m driving U13 94 bluebird (Manual).
SR20DET(Swapped engine)


I had been browsing your sites about 3-4 years ago and didn`t find any U13 rides..But right now the number has been increasing..What a surprise..!Anyway day by day i found the sites to be very informatives in many aspect..I guess it`s time for me to fit in..Keep up the good job for keeping the site alive.  ;)

cheers,
Jonathan

My introduction
« Reply #280 on: Sep 28, 2008, 09:53PM »
Hey,
My names Brett, yeah, user name really has nothing to do with anything at all.
I just recently bought a manual rnu12 attesa with a ca18de in it.
I have been reading topics for a while, I like to lurk.
Vithy is the one that introduced me to the site and to the car I now own (bought it off a current member)
I am located in Adelaide at the moment but in a couple months will be moving to Goulburn where my attesa and dad await.
No modifications have been made to the attesa yet, because I am nowhere near it at the moment.
I like making long introduction posts that noone really wants to read.
Cheers if you made it this far.  ;)

It's out of rego at the moment, and a few repairs need to be done before I put it on the road.
It's sitting in a garage in collector as I type this.

My dad had some work done by some guys and he was very happy with their work.. I can't think of the place as I've never had to go there myself. I'll ask him next time I see him and let you know.

greetings to all ANTRX members, my name is corey im 18 years old and i own a white U12 Nissan Pintara TRX (1990) with a KA24 engine.
I live in the Hole that is Adelaide.

I have owned my pinny for only about 3 months or so and got it for a bargain off of my brother for $500
Originally when i got it the Car was running perfectly. Due to me driving like a tool it now has a couple of problems that need to be resolved.
Will give more details in future posts.

I have visited this site a number of times after googling it and it has a lot of useful info. I have also read a couple forums and completely agree with the ban on the phrase "f00lly sik (yes i have a low IQ - or i'm taking the piss)"

Anyway my TRX is stock as a rock at the moment besides a nice tint job and after driving it the first time i fell in love with it, i am intending to post some photo's of it but unable to until i have shaken the "noob" tag haha.

Looking forward to meeting some of you fantatics.. Peace.

Helllo everyone, my name is Claude Im from Columbia Missouri I own a 1st and send Gen civic and a 3rd gen Supra but my cousin has a 1987 nissan Stanza wagon with 80,000 original miles on it with firm body no dings or scratches.  and she wants 400 dollars for it I dont have any pics yet and ive searched all over the net for info that is what led me here Ive heard about a turbo charged motor that was made in certain markets.  My question is would this be a good platform to start a decent build and are parts readily available in your market cuz I know there are not in the United States lol.  Should i let this one pass me buy or swap in a different motor like a Ca18det which i believe to be the turbo motor or any suggestions you guys can give me, I always wanted a unique nissan to own and this one you dont see everyday here in the US. Thanks guys for all the help in advance
