He's got a point, rust is rust. I don't see anything wrong with people knowing what they're buying.

If you are not hiding anything, there is no reason to get worked up.

Unfortunately rust there most likely means it's the result of poor prep work when spraying that area and possibly poor treatment of rust there prior to the spray.

This is why I would never buy a car with a respray, you will never know what has been hidden till a few years later.

That being said 13.5k plus a good rub back and new paint you will have a tidy GTR for 16k.

Good luck

fair enough buyers need to know what they buy, but implying im untruthful and saying there is rust in the car .. that can be blown up into a million different things .. i wonder how he knew about this rust ? did santa tell him ??

I think any car of the same age you will find some sort of rust!

I remember hearing of certain cars having rust within the first 5 years!

Falcon i think might have been one with rust on the pillar? Could be wrong!

Car is still a bargain. Pm sending now mate.

Don't worry about this guy anyway, Much more vital information has been left out of for sale threads in the past.

Real nice car and screw the rust critics....

Rust is common on any area of seams and rubber seals. As water over times is absorbed into the rubber causing the metal Around or under to swell and the paint onto to rise.

This is also very common on sunroofs, Door seams, window seams ect.. Buyer’s don’t need to be PUT off your car by you being OVER honest about the car when advertising. You are selling the car and making an attractive sale. If people want it,... COME LOOK AT IT! If u don’t like it shut up walk away and be happy ur money is still in " your pocket".

As far as it goes i love your car mate! Im trying to sell my Hilux to buy a 32 GTR! Hope u still have it when i sell my hilux!

:):)

I agree, you're bloody nuts! I'm tempted to buy it and I've only just sold my R32 GTR last November for $21k haha

20k gtrs = Very Fast Quick Clean !

years ago i ran 244kws awhile ago checking af mixures and timing ... stock ecu

wonder how much power u can get out of pfc on stock psi

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
