yeah ive chatted to that guy online but haven't met him. i think he has the 4th one in vic and i got the 3rd. it was actually my gf that spotted the plates as i was trying to stay on the road checking your car out. only the 3rd ive seen and yours is by far the best.

spotted a stagea on sat night on nepean highway near mentone, was white with the plates staga and a cf bonnet. i was checking your car out while you were looking at my aristo. very sweet wagon

viper isnt australian standards so if your car is ripped with it in i doubt your insurance will give you much love. needs to have all black wires to be approved

Ive seen this car and its very nice. Free bump for an Aristo

This sticker came on my Aristo. It was placed on the rear window in a location that could have only been put there in the factory. It has a number on it that starts with 95 which is the year my car was made. It also has a cool hologram on it. Can someone please tell me what it is and what it means.

i got my aristo from j-spec (in sexy whiteness) definately go for the inspection, mine took over 3 months. that was mostly because the first ship was full so my car missed it. im driving it now and they are an exelent car

nah hasnt been dynoed yet. all up cost about 17K and thats for a 95 model that is very clean with a true 77K kms, sunroof, factory cruise controll and 12 stacker cd player. just did about 200k's in it today and i must say it has some balls in stock form. with an exhaust and some more boost this thing is going to tear it up hardcore

im planing to do a full review in a week or 2. on early reports it is a very easy car to drive with plenty of torque. it truly feels like a lexus vip car

about 4 months ago i decided to sell my 200rwkw r32 gts-t for something a little different. decided to import an aristo cos they are very cool and very unique. got the car last tuesday and it got registered this morning. pics here http://members.optusnet.com.au/linxus40/aristo/ warning: they are not 56k friendly. after a few days of driving it all i can say is that it truly kicks ass, if your in the se suburbs of Melbourne you might see me cruising about. go the 2JZ!!!

i know in my skyline when i drive quick the stuff in the boot shoots about all over the place. i think that plate between the boot and the rear seat is to protect you and your passengers. say you had a toolbox in your boot and you broke hard or hit something, that little piece of foam in the back seat wont stop jack and you’ll cop it in the back of the head. just my 2 cents

drop a rb20 in, get them to move the rb25 turbo on your old motor to the new and your sorted. rb20's are nice and the turbo you have makes them even better. that and a rb25 costs like 2-3 times more to source and a lot more troubles since it will probably kill your gearbox with its torque

if its the same as the 2 doors look at your front window and you will see a thin line running up the middle of it. thats it.

This is a bit of a long shot but im loking for the speedo, tacho, fuel and temp needles from an aristo 93-96. Anyone who has got a half cut with these bits left over or knows someone who might and is willing to make a few bucks give me a pm. thanks.

Looks like you mate was too tight to pay the $250 to get the car mechanically inspected before payment was made. The importer in question doesn’t choose the cars for you, they give you the tools and options to choose what car you want. In the end it was your mate’s decision to choose those 2 cars. Don’t talk crap about a reputable businesses that help a lot of people out.

yeah im also importing with j-spec. this is my second time and with luck my car will be on the ship into brissy on the 3rd

ill have a very stock aristo in less than a month with everything going to plan. ill give an update after i give it a it of a fang

thought it was a head gasket a while back but a compression test turned up normal, will try the thermostat thing see what it gets me

Cars been doing this for a while now but as aim about to sell it i thought i better sort it out for the new owner. It used to be that my car warmed up then the temp needle sat in the middle of the gauge. Now it seems after 20-30 odd min of driving the temp needle will go almost to the red part at the top (only a few mm off) then it will quickly fall back to about 3/4 then slowly climb and repeat the cycle. Also now when I get home and turn the car off i can hear the water bubbling in the system, this bubbling is quite obvious and lasts for up to a min or two sometimes. I’ve had the radiator fully flushed by ice performance so i don’t believe there are any blockages in it. I've also had the water pump replaced about 14K km's ago so its still prety new. So i think it can only be either the thermostat is dieing and as such is opening much later than it should or the water temp sensor is busted. I’m still learning cars so please point out if I’m wrong. Any ideas which one it is and where i could get replacement parts. i.e. repco Thanks for any help

the 2jz tt supra has 2 same sized turbos

less you have an aftermarket computer a dyno tune will do nothing as you cannot change the fuleing or timing of a stock ecu without remaping it.

noone want to buy a skyline? as it says ONO so make a reasonable offer. i will also be including in the sale a nardi steering wheel in good condition that came with the car from japan, as well as the origonal shifter if you dont like the short shifter. i will also be including a stock air box so if you get defected for pod and fmic you can easly switch. comeon make an offer. this car must be sold in 2 months if not sooner. im willing to take out all the sound gear and drop the price by 400$

As I’m buying myself a new car it looks like my Black manual 1989 R32 Gts-t Skyline must be sold.

thanks for the swift reply rezz didnt think they were trying to rip me off or anything just wanted to see if they missed anyhing. ive imported with them before and its been all good. was more interested in the price as they havent done many this new and didnt know exactly how much id get it for (just within my buget woo)

hi guys i just bought an aristo off auction with j-spec's help they gave me a run down of what the stuff on the sheet meant but just want it translated from a third party just to make sure its a 1995 aristo v with 78000k's on the clock. also i want to know if 600,000 yen is a good price for it or if i paid too much thanks a ton
