just buy it you weak fag so i can kick your ass in my GTR and laugh at your gay wheels. yeah you heard me bum burgler. ;)

sounds good to me. if the body is straight, and it's a Vspec then $25K is not unreasonable to pay. the engine bay in particular looks very clean.

Have a look at this if you want some real track value for money for around the same bucks.

The previous track use of this car is my only issue, and the transport/rego change, but I might have a look at it.

thats true about the previous use but at least you know what internals it has....theres nothing wrong with a car being driven for what it was built for..

but at the end of the day its your choice i just thought that it was a good car to look at considering what you want to do

i dunno, lots of track use shags a car in ways most can only imagine. parts you don't even know exist get worn out. on the other hand it has lots of good gear on it. and on the third hand this one is a Vpsec which definately adds some value and exclusivity. I think I'd probably go for the vspec. ;)

Look at the parts list on the V Spec.

Normally I would opt for the V Spec as well due to it being a more sought after model, however given the modifications, im sure the previous owner in Japan made good use of them, be it at a track or on the street, so I wouldn't write off J-Boys assuming that it has more wear and tear than the V Spec would.

While J-Boys car has been heavily track raced, its got a fair whack of history to back it up, which is a good selling point, not to mention the fact its a proven performer with what appears to be very comprehensive list of upgrades.

At the end of the day, Paulies buying the car to violate at the track, so with that in mind, dollar for dollar, J-Boys is better value.

Disclaimer: I am not getting any kick-backs from J-Boy for my recommendation ;)

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
