its only had the one owner, but then again nismo speedo's are usually fitted at later stages after purchase. I'll check whether the timing belt has been done or anything else to give hints about the original kms.

means its done 2660kms a year for the past 16 years.

Its prob close to 240 000 km (working on a low average 15km/year), and has done 2 timming belts on its way to its third.

As much as i'm tempted I dont think i'll waste my time trying to justify that lovely piece of calculating!

Brilliant isn't it? But please by all means help yourself! I will love to know where i went wrong.

well for a start xskape, whilst i agree with you that it does seem very low... would usually only expect old show cars to be at that figure, i would be certain it does would not have been doing anywhere near 15000km/yr (i persume your immature mind meant 15000 rather than 15km). most japanese cars are used far less than australian due to their dense populations and high road costs, not to mention articulate public transport means.

I myself bought a r32 gtr, it had its timing belt changed shortly before selling (as the jap owner provided proof).

All jap cars come with a lot lower kms than any aussie clown would expect, but i havent had a single issue with mine mechanically, so as long as you trust the seller, it probably is legit, if not close to the truth

Always a tool wanting to sabotage a for sale thread with his wit and carnizzma.

Personally i dont believe the hype with KM reductions . I know it happens to some but there's no need to go bombing the guys advertisment with some lame theory .

well i guess your another sucker that fell for the quote "cars are used alot less in Japan". Yes they are used slightly less. but not as low as they claim. Just match up the Km's on the odometer to the body and the interior. If they park thier car all day and don't drive it? Why does it look like shit? But having siad that a good detalier can make a peice of shit into a birthday cake.

There is plenty of ways to provide dodgey proof. Know a mechanic is one. And when your asian everyone knows everyone.

One of my good mates is Japanesse who lived there for 20+ years then migrated to Australia.. blah blah blah but to cut a long story short he has confirmed km’s have been wound back prior to auction. Because these sucker aussies love it. As an importer/car seller, if you didn’t do it and it was done in Japan, your hands are clean!

As a car seller always be honest. You'll get more respect and more likely be able to get the sale

As a car buyer. Don't trust anyone! or believe everything you hear or see.

I have friends living in Japan and what you say is very true. Public transport works very well, tolls are ridiculously expensive, densely populated and far far smaller. Australians drive their cars pretty well far more than anyone else. Fearful Aussie will never understand that, and only they lose out buyer higher km cars to make themselves feel better! I bought a 1985 RX7 with 45k on it. Everything was like new. A mate living over there now has a 1993 RX7 with only 35k on it. Did 3k a year for the first 7 years of it's life.

Stop discrediting peoples sales. If you are scared, ignore the speedo and judge a car on its condition alone. Stop with the annoying fear mongering.

"As a car buyer. Don't trust anyone! or believe everything you hear or see."

You'll never buy a car if you can't trust your own eyes or judgement. And you do better using that than some perceived expert workshops.

hi, if you are commercially importing cars for sale, please contact Blitz or Prank via pm to enquire about becoming a subscribed trader on this forum.

I would also suggest that offering cars for sale that you do not have in your possesion is not a good idea.

to the rest of the people posting in this thread I'd suggest refreshing yourselves with the forum rules. They are posted at the top of the For Sale section. Break them again and I hand you a little spanking. don't post your problems, thoughts, arguments, abuse, stories etc in someones for sale thread.

thread has been left open for the time being.

Like I said I will find out the details.

And we've found a timing belt sticker, which was replaced at 92,000 kms begining of 2006! So we'd be looking at over or around 110,000 - 120,000km but yeah... nothing near your calculated 240,000 km!! There's so much more to say, but wat is the point arguing with comments like that in the first place!!

I am going to become a sponser, I havent made any profits as yet if I do sell anything I will become an immediate sponser. But for now my business is still in the making and should be all ready in next couple of weeks.. Once it is actually up and running, I will become a sponser whether I've made a sale or not, and advertise many vehicles available in Japan.

Thanks

Closed.

Sorry mate, but the bottom line here is you are a business and as per the rules you must pay and become a business trader before you advertise your cars or parts on this forum.

    • I had 3 counts over the last couple of weeks once where i got stranded at a jdm paint yard booking in some work. 2nd time was moving the car into the drive way for the inspection and the 3rd was during the inspection for the co2 leak test. Fix: 1st, car off for a hour and half disconnected battery 10mins 4th try car started 2nd, 5th try started 3rd, countless time starting disconnected battery dude was under the hood listening to the starting sequence fuel pump ect.   
    • This. As for your options - I suggest remote mounting the Nissan sensor further away on a length of steel tube. That tube to have a loop in it to handle vibration, etc etc. You will need to either put a tee and a bleed fitting near the sensor, or crack the fitting at the sensor to bleed it full of oil when you first set it up, otherwise you won't get the line filled. But this is a small problem. Just needs enough access to get it done.
    • The time is always correct. Only the date is wrong. It currently thinks it is January 19. Tomorrow it will say it is January 20. The date and time are ( should be ! ) retrieved from the GPS navigation system.
    • Buy yourself a set of easy outs. See if they will get a good bite in and unthread it.   Very very lucky the whole sender didn't let go while on the track and cost you a motor!
    • Well GTSBoy, prepare yourself further. I did a track day with 1/2 a day prep on Friday, inpromptu. The good news is that I got home, and didn't drive the car into a wall. Everything seemed mostly okay. The car was even a little faster than it was last time. I also got to get some good datalog data too. I also noticed a tiny bit of knock which was (luckily?) recorded. All I know is the knock sensors got recalibrated.... and are notorious for false knock. So I don't know if they are too sensitive, not sensitive enough... or some other third option. But I reduced timing anyway. It wasn't every pull through the session either. Think along the lines of -1 degree of timing for say, three instances while at the top of 4th in a 20 minute all-hot-lap session. Unfortunately at the end of session 2... I noticed a little oil. I borrowed some jack stands and a jack and took a look under there, but as is often the case, messing around with it kinda half cleaned it up, it was not conclusive where it was coming from. I decided to give it another go and see how it was. The amount of oil was maybe one/two small drops. I did another 20 minute session and car went well, and I was just starting to get into it and not be terrified of driving on track. I pulled over and checked in the pits and saw this: This is where I called it, packed up and went home as I live ~20 min from the track with a VERY VERY CLOSE EYE on Oil Pressure on the way home. The volume wasn't much but you never know. I checked it today when I had my own space/tools/time to find out what was going on, wanted to clean it up, run the car and see if any of the fittings from around the oil filter were causing it. I have like.. 5 fittings there, so I suspected one was (hopefully?) the culprit. It became immediately apparent as soon as I looked around more closely. 795d266d-a034-4b8c-89c9-d83860f5d00a.mp4       This is the R34 GTT oil sender connected via an adapter to an oil cooler block I have installed which runs AN lines to my cooler (and back). There's also an oil temp sensor on top.  Just after that video, I attempted to unthread the sensor to see if it's loose/worn and it disintegrated in my hand. So yes. I am glad I noticed that oil because it would appear that complete and utter catastrophic engine failure was about 1 second of engine runtime away. I did try to drill the fitting out, and only succeeded in drilling the middle hole much larger and now there's a... smooth hole in there with what looks like a damn sleeve still incredibly tight in there. Not really sure how to proceed from here. My options: 1) Find someone who can remove the stuck fitting, and use a steel adapter so it won't fatigue? (Female BSPT for the R34 sender to 1/8NPT male - HARD to find). IF it isn't possible to remove - Buy a new block ($320) and have someone tap a new 1/8NPT in the top of it ($????) and hope the steel adapter works better. 2) Buy a new block and give up on the OEM pressure sender for the dash entirely, and use the supplied 1/8 NPT for the oil temp sender. Having the oil pressure read 0 in the dash with the warning lamp will give me a lot of anxiety driving around. I do have the actual GM sensor/sender working, but it needs OBD2 as a gauge. If I'm datalogging I don't actually have a readout of what the gauge is currently displaying. 3) Other? Find a new location for the OEM sender? Though I don't know of anywhere that will work. I also don't know if a steel adapter is actually functionally smart here. It's clearly leveraged itself through vibration of the motor and snapped in half. This doesn't seem like a setup a smart person would replicate given the weight of the OEM sender. Still pretty happy being lucky for once and seeing this at the absolute last moment before bye bye motor in a big way, even if an adapter is apparently 6 weeks+ delivery and I have no way to free the current stuck/potentially destroyed threads in the current oil block.
