I found a few japanese coins all through the R32 and when cleaning it my girl found an opened condom packet under the seat. It had japanese writing on it so I wasnt interrogated. Made her squirm and I had to shampoo the seats LOL

Did you use it!? hahah :)

Japanese newspaper under the passenger seat coming out of the carpet.

There was a story floating around not long ago about some guy who brought in a vip'd merc, had it for a while and decided to retrim the interior, lifted the carpet to find a katana hidden up against the drivers side door sills.

i found nothing of interest in my car...but when i was working in wrecking yards...i used to find all sorts of cool shit...half of my CD collection is from wrecked cars...a pair of smith and wesson police issue handcuffs.... a maglite torch (fullsize)....an extendable baton......naughty photos.....etc etc......under the passenger seat of a honda prelude that had been hit head on by a semi trailer...i found the back of someones foot (heel)....that was pretty gross

i found this in the passenger door. and i dont mean in the door pocket. it was INSIDE the door. lol.

i found it when i was installing speakers, and it explained a strange clunk i'd hear from time to time. lol.

the card is metal, and quite heavy.

http://www.facebook.com/keiko.ihara.hata

It looks like that is the person who may have owned your car in Japan. Looks like they have a picture of their daughter as their profile pic.

Also found them on linked in - if its them, they are a real estate agent.

Dont know how many keiko hata's there would be! haha not too many I presume. :)

Maybe try and get in touch with them and confirm!?

If so, please let us know how you go ;)

Damn, I wana find something like this in my car so I can track down her original owner and gain a better understanding of her history!

    • Jack the back of the car up, pull that wheel off, pull that sensor out, and put a bore scope into the hole to inspect the outer casing, see if anything looks damaged before you pull the whole thing apart.
    • Ergh... So I pulled the speed sensor out again and the tip was shiny so I think it's rubbing the bearing. The bearing contains the magnets for the speed sensor so I think when the first sensor broke it damaged the magnet ring on the bearing.  This is just a Google image, but there is a hole going to the bearing. So when the tip broke off the old sensor I'm guessing it fouled the bearing... As the magnet is only protected by a plastic cover it would be easy to damage it. So I guess I'm doing a bearing again.   
    • My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.
    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol
