grrrr

:uh-huh:

Thanks qikshift....

I think I should get some pics...Might be appreciated a bit more when its seen...

Also if ppl out there think the km's are high, remember this....40, 50 or 60 kms for a 1996 car, even in Japan, is a bit hard to believe. I knocked back alot of lower mileage cars from Japan cause I did the math and they didn't add up!!!!

Hey guys, I had some guy (5 months ago) offer me his r32 GTR as a straight swap but I refused 'cause I was too scared that I was going to get a lemon. It was a 92 with 110, 000 kms with full exhaust, some boost and different clutch. I didn't have the power FC computer and had about 160rwkw. He said he couldn't offord insurance anymore...I know its a GTR but i didn't want a lemon, did I do the right thing????

personal choice i guess.. did u test drive it ? get it checked out? u really dont know without going through the motions ... i know u can't pick up everything with these sorts of tests... but u getter a good feelign of what the cars like and how its been treated by doing em :D

I just wanna say to people who judge an import car by kilometres - Dont Bother! Anyone who has shopped for an import (ie most of us??) should know this by now, so i dont know why people are making these 'high kilometre' comments.

I say this all from personal experience, cuz i have a 1996 series two, which was imported in 1998 with 40,000kms on it, that is above average from japan, but at least it was believable.

Maybe People who look at the clock should think twice about this car and maybe go buy a low kilometre instrument cluster to make them feel better once they have bought it :(

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
