Q: If this is an R34 GTR, why do you have it listed as a 2.5L? Does that mean its not really a GTR?

21-Apr-06

A: its a RB26 engine, 2.5l twin turbo. it is a real GTR. its a v-spec2. the NUR Spec comes in 2.8l twin turbo.

Surely no GTR owner is that much of a moron? :D

Sounds like the typical scam of someone listing cars for sale that they dont own, thus knowing nothing about the car itself.

Unfortuantely its very common, people rip photos from carsales.com or the like and use them to place false ads on ebay

Usually they take over someone else's account, then tells you to email the scammer at a different email address.

Plus it's usually $8000 that they list them for. I'll bet Blitz is correct though, it is probably dodgy. Ask if you can view the car pre-auction close... that will tell for sure!

its just a vspec too.....notice the sticker on the back says vspec not vspecII

The ad says 99 model , so it cant be V-specII , she also has yellow indicators but it looks like she may have a c/f v-spec II bonnet ( a little hard to see on the pic )

I agree with you regarding the c/f bonnet / NACA scoop.

It was interesting to read that the car has had the extractors changed yet the stock turbos remain. :whistling:

Then he claims "this car has never been thrashed" but has aftermarket ECU and 4-stage boost control. I wonder if could explain even half of the fabled $140,000 spent on a DVD player, exhaust, etc.

What a scam. Who the hell buys an R34 GTR and doesnt know the specs for it? a F#cking moron w#nker does. the number plates read "GTR 26V". you think the seller would know what the 26 would mean eh? i hate these people who try and rip others off. reminds me of an R33 GTR i saw on drive.com.au for $9,900. Bollocks!!! One of the most definite signs you can tell its a scam, is they tell you to send the payment to an overseas account, or is if the car is overseas but they will ship it to you.

extractors hey.... interesting. hahahaha where did he install those?

Out of all the mods you would install on a GTR, why the F!#k would you go for extractors haha. I bet the seller stole picture of someones else's Gtr and posted as his. Ebay I swear is a scamers paradise, damn scamers alwell some poor soul usually fall for it so be careful.

lol thats soooo fake and exactly what blitz has said. if you are on ebay alot like i am due to work purposes you see this shit often.

also if your a seller they will try scam you in other ways. like lately i have been flooded with homo emails about " how i would like to offer you a set sum of $1,000 for your item and then ship it to my son in nigeria, so please send me all of your details and i'll do so right away "

usually addressed as " dr john smith " or some shit like that. oh no. its not fake at all :huh:

    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
    • And yes with a full tank it will hit limiter free revving or driving 6B6CDF6E-4094-426D-A9CB-6C553475FE36.mp4
    • One way of putting the fuel surge idea to rest, is that even when in neutral/clutch in or free revving it still has the same issue, it can’t even get to limiter (7800) so to me that says it can’t be g force, I’m not trying to argue I just want to find the f&$king issue 😡
