I can't vouch for the service, but while I was looking for my GTV, I went into the yard at Nagoya ( and workshop ) and had a "GOOD" look around with Alex's counterpart ( Alex was out ) and all I can say is..... :thumbsup:

And since I'm not allowed to say anything bad about anyone on a public forum, re-arange the followng words to create the correct sentance: back. odo's All blatently wound were cars :banana:

Well maybe he's cleaned up his act since I was there. Sure sounds like it from what you guys are saying.

When I was there I saw cars with rust, oil leaks, faded paint, faded interiors, repaired accident damage etc etc showing 64,000km. :(

One of the car's that I saw that day ( in that condition ) was purchased by someone on this forum. He had owned it for about 2 months when I next saw it, and it was all patched up and buffed up then, but it was easy to spot the issues since I knew where and what they were.

I guess at the end of the day, let the buyer beware ( no matter who you buy from ) :)

before u go praising them. u might want to wait til you have owned the car for a bit longer then a day. cute little suprises take time to show themself lol. not saying this is the case for you. but i know many people who were full of praises for a certain turbo distributor on this forum, only to be damning the bloke few months later.

nontheless looks clean, and congratz with the buy :P

i had a look at alex's shop aswell about 6 moths ago,,,, i decided not to get a car from him only coz i found a better car for a slightly cheaper price from joel in castle hill....... also i dont care what anyone says.....EVERY 2ND HAND JAP IMPORT HAS ITS ODOMETERS WOUND BACKWARDS!!!!! don't you wonder how a car with 66k KM has a brand new steering wheel, perfect seats, usually a replaced gear knob, yet the window buttons are always worn or the carpet on the door next to the arm rest has seen better days lol.....you cant avoid it so if it sounds good and looks straight and goes hard... thats all you can hope for.....

also my r33 was picked up with 66k Km on the dial..... for christ sake its a 96 model, 12 years old, that means 5,500km per year..... no way... japs that own their own car drive asmuch as we do over here in the cities and in 6 months im up to 75k KM already..... also the original owner wasted money on a full titanium 3.5 inch fujitsubo exhaust, rims, genuwine gtr front bar, expensive air filter and an expensive "but useless in australia soundsytem" but he only drove the car 66k in 12 years...... at the time i was looking for a new car, every dealer i saw had dodgey k's on them... all i could do was pick the best at the time and still to date no probs except a clutch upgrade....

thank god there such good cars

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
