I always see this car as i work near them blokes. From what i have seen, they can sell realy nice clean GTR's. Though i have heard many bad things about them too. You realy have to go there and check it out for yourself and talk to them face to face. I almost bought a R32 GTR from them but spent my money else where.

Saw this car about 6 weeks ago looked ok didn't like the leather interior they did have the front lip it was just taken off to stop it from scrapping everything. Don't know about the 97 98 thing was told it was a 97 and its a series III cant understand why its just not stamped on the original jap plate seems a bit strange

options and extras?? turbo charged?? didn't know that was an option or extra .. i thought turbos were standard on a gtr .. ask them if u can get a NA gtr :thumbsup: .. in fact i dont' know why they are putting down all those things as options and extras... they are all normal and standard!!! false advertising everywhere!!!

Hmm - What's got me interested in the car is that it is a 97 V-Spec, I assume at least a series II if not III, I doubt the IV or even that there is one. I have not seen another 97 V-Spec on the market... Also it's black, I like black, and don't want a white one. It's got leather, albeit a not so good choice of colours and some minor mods that I'd want done anyway. I've seen some good buys here and I'm still keeping an eye out but it seems that most are fairly heavily modified or raced.

I'd definately get it checked, I've got a thread in the QLD forum asking for a reference for someone....

I'd be interested in anyone's experience with these guys, they have been ok so far, but I am a little sus on the car particularly advertising it as a Series IV, but it is only advertising... what counts is how good the car is, or isn't.

Does anyone know who to back track the car with Chassis and engine number. They seemed a little reluctant to give me the previous owners details too. I'm still waiting on them and to my knowledge they have to supply it.

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
