lol, you seem to be talking up this car quite a bit. No they did not come standard with 5 studs as much as you want to think that. If a car has been taken care of a car that has 150,000km can look and feel as good as your car with "36,000km." Get realistic mate. 12 year old car with 36000km?? Do you really think the car was driven over its life 3000km a year? Guess whatever makes you sleep at night.

Other than all this the car does look sweet, do get it checked out and get a major service done. As far as anyone knows it could have 136,000km or even more and no one will know except for the person that did it in the first place. As everyone says. Dont even look at the km, look at the condition. No one here can genuinely say how many km their car has.

i dont need to talk to this car up u just gotta believe it plenty of ppl have seen this already most my mates are in the import scene

when will you people listen dont spam my thread just cos ur skylines got a millions miles on it n its been wound back the car was owned by an older person in japan then imported to aus by a 50yr old! i used to own a 84 mitsubishi colt with 87,000 on it n it was clean! just cos its been imported dont mean it must have been wound back like i said come take one look at the car it has not one mark on it!

if u swear its been clocked back why would all 4 tyres be showing age round the edges?? and to add to that there an early model bridgestone tyre.. so obviously its been sitting in the shed drivin by an old jap to the shops n back once a week!

i promise u this car came out with 5 studs its a type x non turbo 4 door series 2!

i also bought thru a dealer that certified the k's just to sort all

will have photos up later to prove my point! fags!

You seriously got to listen to these people, they are not putting your car down they are just giving you advice but your making it sound like they are just trying to find faults on your car when they aren't actually. At the end of the day you drive the car, so if you feel satisfied with the car than good but if i were you i would listen to these people get the service done hear what the mechanc has to say, because it's better to be safe than sorry.

Look mate, you came to this forum asking for advice and on what we think. If you dont like it then you know where to go. If you arent ready to accept any criticism you shouldnt have made this thread in the first place. Expecially when you are claiming things that just arent true. Some of us giving you this advice have been around for years on this forum so we would know a few things :dry: If you know all then i guess you dont need a forum for help.

And think about it this way. A person will come to see your car. You say its got 36,000km. He says prove it. You show him the interior and shit and say "heres the proof." He will probably laugh as that is not proof at all. The ONLY proof you can have is CURRENT service history. But hey they can be fudged too.

fags!

i have not seen any documentation of a type x r33 ever being released so if you can point me into the right direction that would be great. promises and someone's word isn't really what i was hoping for.

no one here has called you names or abused you. so don't you go start voicing off. consider this a verbal warning to everyone to keep the conversation civil and mature.

this is a forum where everyone is expected to share their opinions whether good or bad, we all have to be able to take some form of criticism.

i don't want to hear anymore about how many km or what not, everyone knows about imports and their odometer issues. the OP is well aware of everyone's comments and if he wishes to ignore them then everyone needs to respect that.

play nice guys

Lol. Same dealer?

From memory, I believe that all import cars must have their clocks wound back for compliance...

i promise if ur gtr has that much its not possible to look this clean.. u cant immatate a new car.

why the hell would they have to be wound back for compliance???

if my car dont have that many k's why is there not one scratch on the underside? not one mark under wheel archs? windscreen and interior where perfect when i picked it up! and why would the tyres be all cracked and old if it had been drivin as much as u's say? everymorning i get into it, i get to still smell that new car smell.

i know my k's are genuine and you all cant help trying to prove me wrong because of all the imports that do get wound back!

cars like this exsist it is possible!

went into my local nissan dealer yesterday and they thru it up on the hoist n looked right over it and assured me it hasnt been wound back because its so obvious in the quality of the car.. for it to be this good it would have to be restored and i dont know any1 in the world that would bother? and like i said u cant immatate a new car

every mechanic or anyone thats worked on it is amased at how perfect this car is

belive or continue hateing... i dont really care i'm the lucky one that gets to drive a pretty much brand new skyline!

pics dont do this car any justice u have to see it in person then u will change ur opinion

mate, step back a bit. they are trying to prove you wrong because you are making a claim. we unfortunately live in a world where claims are backed up by evidence. all you have are promises and your own judgment of how new you think your car is. even imports coming in with full up to date logbooks aren't a good indication of the type of mileage anymore.

if the car's condition makes you happy then that's all you need, you don't need/have to convince us and stop trying to prove it to the other guys and they'll leave you alone.

it would have to be restored and i dont know any1 in the world that would bother? and like i said u cant immatate a new car

today is your lucky day!

exactly, so why does it matter what everyone else says?

you have to understand that you can pretty much buy new of every part of skylines (imports) off the shelf. you only have to walk through ricesalon to see that everyone and anyone can tidy up a car.

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Duncan · Posted

      You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
