So, I Was Cleaning My Car The Other Day...

[ScaryTed77]

...and I struck gold just behind the plastic flap on the driver's side sun visor!

Man I love owning an import :laughing-smiley-014:

What other weird and wonderful things have you found in your car?

When i was installing my PFC i found an empty packet of Jap lollies and a packet of unopened tissues.

But to find some coin is way better.Nice find.

Oh and what you have there is worth nearly $10 aus

I found a photo of a japanese family having dinner at home in the sunvisor to my nissan california work wagon about 3 years ago. I still have it in there till this day. I run into every now and again when I clean the car or go to store things in the visor. They all look so happy and i've left it alone because i feel it brings good karma to the car (not had a ding in it till this day, touch wood)

MY GTR came with a J-POP cd in the player, i actually still have that in the glove box in the gtr as well.... also found about 10 gold coins when i was removing the rear seat to run cables for my amp .. looks like they were for a arcade of some sort..

Strange feeling knowing that the car used to be someone elses ride before you got it...

[barnoon]

Never found anything in my skyline but found a Jap coin in my S13

[N1GTR]

The last mechanic to work on my GTR (before i got it) left a few small tools in the bottom of the engine bay - mustve been too hard for them to reach

Never found anything in my car. Not even the flare!!

The flare looks like this: (Found this in someone else's car)

A friend found a half packet of japanese gum and a pair of sunglasses (small ones at that) when he brought his in

[Lepperfish]

Mine import had a shoebox full of japanese cassette tapes and a few jap coins. Some of the cassettes were pretty good, Dragon Ash was one of the bands on the tapes. haha.

I've got my flare- still in the car. People have no idea what it is until I tell them

[monkeykplunk]

Yeah same here.

My flare is still in the holder under the dash, although it ends up on the floor from time to time because of my big-footed g/f

I found an un-opened packet of tissues and the original jack and tools in the rear quater.

And mine came with the original owners manual book and sleeve including the business card of the salesman!

[N1GTR]

or i got to a spanish soccer match

[Sl!m]

yeah only thing in mine is the flare..

i should take out the back seat and see what i find

[D_I_F]

I found a parking receipt in the pocket of my drivers side sun visor from 1996 about a year after I had the car.

[Primordial]

I found a ticket for a Japanese parking garage in the visor of mine.

I'd prefer 1000 yen!

[br3tt]

Found 1 silver japanese coin.

[jeffworld2]

wow they must have skipped over cleaning out my car. dodgy little fellas

had about 20 coins, plastic necklace, real necklace which is now mums, a kenwood cd stacker (despite carrozeria head unit- incompatible) under the passenger seat.

paper wise, the whole car was riddled with mcdonalds receipts, parking tickets, coupons for stuff i cant work out, those little sticker-photos of i assume the previous owner and his chicky-babe. all sorts of jazz/

+ 1 flare, which was a bit of a letdown when set off. maybe they go off?

however- a jack without a handle, and nothing else in the way of tools (pinchy mcwharfie?)

also car was delivered to me with 4 inch exhaust, illegal ride height, fibreglass body kit, no air filter and an hks ssqv. oh and 25mm spacers

[jeffworld2]

i had a great day ripping everything out to find more once i found stuff. it was cool to find maps for the shops on the coupons, so i could have worked out where my car had been to. I didnt tho lol

[MrStabby]

I have the flare and;

- Found a Tomie hicas lock bar computer under the parcel shelf when installing speakers (and i checked the hicas and the spacers are there)

- Adjustable cam gears

- CRD reckon its probably got cams as the cam gears worked best at 0 deg

- Nismo radius rods (who cares they're the same length as stock)

- Braided clutch and brake lines

Previous owner didnt know about any of it

[silver gts-t]

i had a small japanese family of 5 sitting in the back along with some cattle, a dog, 3 snakes and a bowl of rice.

i still have them till this day for good luck, brings good karma.
