Tell ya what though, it's only at $8,600 at the moment.

It's clearly had a lot of work. Even if it doesn't do 9s, if it goes for under $10k I reckon someone got themselves and absolute bargain. If I were in the market for a 33 I'd try and buy it.

Of course I would not pay a cent until I actually pick the car up/inspected the car.

Went for $11,700, as said even if it doesnt do 9's, still a good buy for the same sort of money as a stocker

Yeh I dunno about that, the whole thing is suss to me. I mean, we know what claims the owner made about the car that were obviously untrue. What else could he be leaving out? It may just be me, but I wouldn't put (a claimed) 40k into a car and then put it up for auction starting at $1 with no reserve...

Which is why you wouldn't part with a cent until you've seen the car and checked out it's all legit and worth it.

It's not hard to not get ripped off when buying over ebay.

      Engine sputter

      By Celticsfan03 · Posted

      I was just driving into work and while on my drive, I went to accelerate and noticed the car would sputter/hesitate and I’d hear a few pops from the exhaust before it started going faster. Then I also noticed that when I push my clutch in, the car would die. This all started happening today. Any ideas?

      That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By niZmO_Man · Posted

      ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
