I know that thread exists but it takes forever for a response, I needed the quick check as I've already put down a deposit for a certain skyline however that is the Vin No. (Doesn't look like an R33 to me!) Very odd, also the car isn't registered in the sellers name so something fishy is going on......

i google'd around a little bit and found this site https://www.checkitout.com.au/index.php for checking the origins of VIN#

entering that VIN# shows this:

Make NISSAN

Model UNKNWN

Body Type SEDN

Colour GRY

also found a few V8 Sc400 soarers with similar vins?

At least that checkitout site reckons its a nissan, so its probably fine

Im still undecided on what to do, my deposit isn't valid for long though and am still worried about the seller not having the car registered to him (not the "rightfull owner")

Thats the 'aussie' RTA VIN from the rego papers, to FAST the 'jap' VIN you need the VIN number from the blue plate in the engine bay. Should be on the drivers side against the firewall.

Whats the reason its not in his name, did he tell you? If youre determined this is the car you want, try and get some answers on the ownership front before handing money over. Someone in another thread had their car taken off them for being stolen when it wasnt, so best be safe!

you should go to this website https://bizline.docep.wa.gov.au/revs/public...ch.cfm?search=1

you will need the registration number, the VIN number and the engine number.

sometimes you might not get a match because one number or letter will be incorrect and you may need to call the department of consumer and employment protection on 08 9282 0410 and ask to be put through to REVS checking.

they can see more information than you can and will be able to let you know.

also - to cover yourself you can purchase a certificate to show your car is legally purchased etc and is not owing finance / belonging to another owner.

i would highly reccommend this service - a little effort can make a huge difference.

    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
