My mate is about to buy a Skyline 1992 gts-t, and we are goin to fly 2500km to pick it up and then drive it home (ROAD TRIP :P). Now we both know a bit about cars and shit but dont know a lot about turbo'd cars or skylines. We are wondering what you guys think about the following and if this car is really worth the $19000. The mods include:

5 spoke 18"inch mak sting rims with Pirelli's all round (235's on the rear

and i think 225's on front)

Lowered 3" at front and 2.5" rear

Full GT-R Bodykit

3'1/2inch Jun bl exhuast straight through off turbo with flanges so a cat

can be fittied and taken out anytime

GT-R Front mount intercooler

Exterme multi-puck centre sprung cushion button heavy duty racing clutch

GT-R 400hp rated Fuel pump

HKS superflow pod filter

blow off valve

Turbosmart adjustable boost controller

Nizmo front and back strut braces

Apexi electronic rev/speed meter

Split fire boost gauge

full sony/alpine stereo with 10 stacker (tweeters, crossovers, splits and

6x9's)

Full Cheetah Alarm system and immobiliser.

Now as I said we dont know much about turbo's and was wondering if you guys and girls could tell us some of the things to look out for. As I said we both know some stuff about cars like what to check to see if it has been in accident and stuff like that but next to nothing about the turbo side of things.

Is the $19000 a good price for the car.

It has 85000 Kms on the clock

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

EDIT:

My bad i posted in the wrong area a link to the actual thread http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...ead.php?t=28955

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.

      So 10/10 times that code is coil packs? I mean if that's the case ill drop the $400USD or so to replace them. I didn't know these cars threw codes before the issue became an issue.
