new r33 - flare still in car- took it out, original manual in globebox, car was really clean when i got it inside, they must have checked before selling it, also later on found extra tein C spanner for the coilovers under the spacesaver in the boot, also a piece of my rear guard sitting under the tyre which is chipped off.

thats about it ;)

b005t,

what you describe above is spookily IDENTICAL to what came in my car.... was your Jap dealer Nissan Prince in ***uoka ??? Shame 'bout the Puretron not working 'coz i'ts very practical rice (which I wasn't expecting by the look of it).

I found a Endless break pads box with the old set rusted pads down the side of the boot...near the tool kit....and also a fuel receipt underneath the leather gear leaver cover.

...OH AND A FLARE :D...haha to everyone without flares

My Flare was located underneath the carpet on the drivers side...it also had some weird alcohol can in the console...

....I wish i found a japanese playing card...:D

Mine came with a Castrol service sticker with (the writing had been rubbed out but left an imprint on it that was visible) .... it said next service due in Aug 02 or at 104,000Km ........ hmmm funny that as the odo only read 75,000kms as of Aug 02 :P

Also have some labelling tape on the doorwell with some jap writing on it ..... no idea what it says.

But other than that - its been fairly boring ..... no playing cards, no dockets ..... nothing

isn't it like RWC mandatory?  coz i dont got one...

oh i got one of those :P

my oil filter had a penis drawn onto it...

oh wait a minute, i drew that...

but my car came with some pretty new looking sparkies that were PFR5A's... and when i read listings about sparkies i couldn't find that number so i chucked em out and replaced them with NGK coppers that were listed for the skyline... only to later on realise that they were new NGK platinums... :'(

    • So yes. All of them. Something like 98% of all fuel in the USA has 10% ethanol: https://afdc.energy.gov/fuels/ethanol-fuel-basics It's labelled as like, AKI, 87, 91, 93 with an E10 or E5 or E15 label on the pump. At a certain point, it's not just "E10" instead of 91. It is 91, 95, 98, and all of them have 10% Ethanol in them. You can also get E85 and E30 which is why you do see some people rolling around with E30 tunes in them.
    • Thanks for the response. This is an 04 EP3 Type R. JDM spec. Fairly certain they're just basic BC racing coils. I do plan to keep as the ride quality on stock I've been told is pretty meh given Sydney roads. If I were to go down that avenue, does NSW require them to be a certain spec (close to original) etc?
    • Should have asked what is the car?
    • I've had two super conflicting experiences with blue slips. My 30 year old E39 waltzed through with no issues but my brother in law was knocked back on 12 y/o 3 series due to wiper blades and some cracking in a control arm bush.  What kind of coil overs? Do you want to keep them after?  If it was me I'd get some dirt cheap shocks and springs from eBay or scumtree. Not ideal but will get you over the line and might even be less than $1k.
    • Hey guys,  Way back when (about 15yrs plus), I picked up a beautiful set of Tein 'Super Racing Spec Circuit Master RE' coilovers from Russman. I have legit never fitted them to my car, as it was garaged indefinitely while i bought a house Yada Yada. They look brand new! Anyway its time to pick up where I left off, and have started doing some khanacross and am booked in for a hill climb next month. The car has some hard af Nismo shocks in ATM, which has me wanting to upgrade again, and now I am left wondering if it's worth having these teins rebuilt? I think they where an ok shock back then, but how do they compare to what's on the market now?  Shockworks/mca are 2800+, and I am sure they are great. But if I can have these rebuilt and be better than, say, a set of bc's for around the cost of bc's, I would be happy with the performance v cost trade off.  If they are considered outdated and rubbish these days, so be it, I'll put them on the shelf and be happy to look at the pretty green colour while I save for the SW/MCA option. Grateful for your thoughts on the matter, and suggestions on who could do the rebuild if it's a worthwhile pursuit.  cheers, Rowdy.
