UMM I have heard mixed reports about this car.... theres not to many around so i would say it is the same one. I have heard that it must have been in quite a large accident before hand as on the right upper arch just to the right of the drivers window there is quite a large crease showing that the metal has bent previously. For the crease to be appearing there there must have been a VERY large accident to the front right hand side.

Still thats not to say that the car would be MAD to drive and own but yeah thats some of the info i have heard about it.

besides many of the imports we see on the road has been in crashes...

correct me if i am wrong as this is just what i have heard.

Hi Guys,

Thought I better clear a few things up regarding this car:

I met the owner yesterday at WorksAuto, and yes he does own Northside Kawasaki. He's a really nice guy, used to own WRX's but has now seen the light.

The car has been up on the hoist and there appears to be no smash damage, so please no more rumors about the car:D

I am hoping he will join us in future cruises and possibly the PAS Autosalon. He is going to be spending a fair bit of money on the car and is happy to have fun on the roads with any takers:D

See'ya:burnout:

Fair enough, i do have one question though which i have seen with my own eyes, how is the crease possible without there being some form of damage on the right hind window pillar, i saw it out the front at auto salon and i can confirm it, a crease like that doesn't just happen from a small dent... and it's not like you running into curbs with your window pillar... then again i have heard some stroies about your driving paul:D

maybe the repair was very proffesional? i just dunno... I could be wrong but i'm just not sure about that crease.... any how i am sure he is very happy with his purchase! black looks quite nice on a r34 GTR!!!

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
