Ok I need a front left passenger side seat belt assembly to suit s13 1989 Silvia. Also need the clip or whatever it is that holds the fuel flap release cable in place. I suspect it's just a plastic circular clip that holds the cable assembly in place. And a used boost gauge. My one reads 4 psi positive when I turn the key off. Ok that's that part done. Just did another compression test on my ca18 engine ( I had a post on hear a while ago that 2 rear cylinders lost compression. ) anyway replaced head gasket and machined head. I've got 130 psi across all four cylinders. Is that ok for an engine that's 20 years old and only done 118,000 klms?? Ok and last thing is I'm getting deployed overseas soon and when I get back I'm swapping the ca18det 220,000 klm old s13 for a mid 90's Toyota camry. But I want a fast weekend import toy. Any suggestions? And I'm not intrested in a wrx, evo or Mazda. I'm a loyalist Nissan man. I have a budget of about $ 15,000. I'm leaning towards an r32, r33 GTR or a 180sx type x or datsun 1600 with SR20 conversion. Any advice regarding parts, maintenance costs and practicality would help heaps thanks.

I'd like to know where you're going to find a GTR of any model for $15k,so I can snap one up too.

Realistically,you should be considering an RPS13,an S14 or an R34 GTT.

Disregard the Nissan GTR plan. I really would need a decent salary to keep one at its peak and getting quotes off import places for second hand parts, gearboxes and engines is turning me off one. Thanks for the advice. :D
