its ok its for my mate... i used my head and did a search and found some previous threads in regards to them... he wants a 180sx and they have a nice lookin 97 model but hes rushing him for a sale, even saying tomorrow morning he will take him to CBA and get his mate to give him the loan for it and im telling him to wait til i can come down with him and look at the car and check to see if its been in an accident and get RACV to do a check on it as well.

Tell your mate not to rush.   I pass there every day and see the SAME cars there for months.  So take your time, do the checks and hammer them down on the price, as they can be a little too pricey.

like when they were in preston, that orange 33 was always there haha and in the ads

oh them guys, sorry I know em as MSA, they're like 2 blocks down from my place.

I dunno bout them hey, they never seem to move their stock, same cars day in day out, and they always seem to show my car to their customers when I drive by (must be the exhaust).

I remember I did a lil dori while turning the corner into Bell St from the side street (god bless empty 3 lane roads) and one of their customers got very excited and started whistling...

I visited MSA when I was looking into buying a car, and I must say if you can establish to em that you know your shit about cars they won't f**k you around (took me a about 10 mins to point out some things about the cars they had that they din know like different specs and also explaining to the salesman that K's Q's n J's stood for King Queen and Jack in S13's)

I still say you should import one from japan, but if you NEED to go to a dealer they're one of the ones I'd say were OK.

went to have a look at it with him yesterday...

i think its too late now :P hes in a rush and against my judgement because the bonnet is repaired poorly from hail damage.... there are a few runs on the bodykit... the left guard isnt painted properly on the inside... if i were him i would have only offered him 21 at the most.

    • Waaay ahead of ya....(evil laugh!!) Will show the fitment and spec details later when it isnt as rainy !
    • Thanks Dose.....    I appreciate it!!
    • I'll probably be putting the shit box back on the dyno again soon, I want to dial in the closed loop boost control properly. I'll have a camera facing the car/motor for fun too. Just note, there are essentially 3x 10AN inlets going into the catch can and 1x going back to the intake pipe. Most of the time the catch can "return" to the sump actually is the crank case breather, pushing air out.
    • I have the R3C with a Nismo slave and by no means does it behave like a stocker, it ain’t THAT bad. On take off just give a bit more throttle than you would say a coppermix and it’s fine. It will not slip though.   
    • Okay. Final round of testing done. Got a friend to hook up a fancy scanner to the car and we also ran some compression and leakdown tests, she is healthy.  The MAF was definitely the culprit. So for future reference anyone with similar issues that find this thread. I suggest the following steps, in order of affordability:   Check your spark plugs for any fouling, replace plugs if they are bad or re adjust the gaps making it narrower (0.8mm would be good). Check every coil's resistance with a multimeter. It can be done by probing the IB and G pins on the coil pack. Resistance should be around 1.4 (+/- 0.1) Ohms Check the MAF. If you have Nissan connect or a good scanner with the 14 adapter it should allow you to see the voltage on the MAF reading should be around 1.1 - 1.2V when car is idling. But if you don't, buy a new MAF from Amazon and test, then return it. (For instance, I got a Chinese one for $40 that was reporting 1.3v on idle). If you still have scanner, you can run tests on the injectors to see if they are working, just remember to unplug the fuel pump fuse/relay and have no pressure on the line. Then listen for the noises that the injectors make. Clean/replace injectors as needed. Once you find the issue and fix, order thousands of dollars worth of OEM parts to refresh unrelated things (Optional)   PS: Thanks to the absolute legends of this forum for the responses and help to someone that went a bit over their head.
