all belts changed at 57,000 by Pitwork Japan with books.

now 112,000 k's.

car is modified to 170rwKW from within the first 6 months of ownership

car regularly sees redline and driven appreciately for the last 3 yrs.

services every 4000 k's with MOTUL :D

car still feels like the first day i test drive her.

Problems:

-rod bush at 85000k's; whiteline have poly ones for around $80 pair

(plus installations and alignment) i recommend the whiteline 'handling package'

while you are at it)

-car fitouts rattles after new springs went in from around 70,000k's

Bought my 1987 HR31 Coupe 6 months ago, had 37,000k's when purchased, now has 42900k's on it now. And YES the are geniune k's as been check out by different mechanics.

I'm the first owner in Australia and got a 3 year warranty on it. 4.5 out of 5 rating from auction in Japan.

some of you people aren't driving (read: enjoying) your cars as much as you should be! hahaha....

as you can see, lots of things can go wrong with this car!!!!!!! :D :D :D

Mine reads 28,000 or thereabouts, not genuine though, it's really about the 68,000 mark... The reason for this was that the owner in Japan replaced the standard dash with a Nismo item and had the count reset or something. judging from the interior (only seen the car in person twice, otherwise im going off a heap of photos taken of it) the car is in EXCELLENT condition. There is next to no wear on any of the interior, such as steering wheel, handbrake, seats... it's all very tidy.

got mine in dec 02 with 77000 on it and now its up to 92000 and still running lovely (touch wood). Wen its time to let this one go its definitely a r34 gtr v-spec, cant really buy anything but a better skyline i reckon after you get one... they just hook you in i tells ya

Got my '98 33 last November with 96,000 on it, now up to about 120,000 with no worries. Only problem I've had is the coilovers that I put in after buying need rebuilding in the rear. Only problem is that it's impossible to find someone who can do it. The only reply I get is "WTF Kei Office??"

bought my 93' R32 GTS25 with 96000 kms on it. had it for about a year and half and now its just under 120000 kms. When I first bought it, tail shaft Centre bearing and one fuel injector had to be replaced. Bushes were changed at around 110k kms. Now, the car is misfiring when both idling and driving (been happening since around 112000 kms) and when this does happen, he car tends to shake. Is it the spark plygs that need changing? Actually, does any1 know what this exactly is?

i got mine in sept last year with about 138,000k's on it and now its got 171,000k's on it..

changed waterpump, gearbox ( auto to manual ), shocks, springs, other than that its been pretty good... the front cv's need replacing now so thats the next thing.

    • Or, the height of the release bearing is not correct for your combo. Start with the bleeding and checking the slave moves throughout its range when you press the pedal (2 person required), but it is possible for the height to be internally wrong too (box back off to measure.
    • Yes, there's quite a few things that can go wrong during a clutch install. Very unlikely. I have a similar clutch. They (ACS) make good gear. No, it is not normal. It is possible that you just need to bleed the clutch slave. But the new clutch will also have a more aggressive actuation force/pressure, and so your old slave cylinder might be a bit leaky or otherwise compromised, and not up to the extra force required. Or the master cylinder, same.
    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?
