No what's REALLY sad is you're given a $30K budget to buy an R34 GTR with any mileage on it for a track car, finding ones with more than 200,000km and knowing damn well you're going to be outbid by someone who's going to knock the 2 off the front of the odometer...

1) One driveway shot is at Sports Auto Group; and other shots are near Concord Oval nearby. Do you understand the implication of this?

2) A wrong VIN# is either sloppy or deliberate

3) You must sight the Jap History odometer reading (amongst other desirable things) before the car was exported from there

I have a serious and angry question ,

A friend directed me this car sales link and asked me if it is any good i straight away pop'd onto this thread and linked it to him shocked to him that this car has had its clock winded back like crazy.

Upon futher discussion he asked me how the hell does this workshop get away with this ? Is there no veichle inspection by the AUS GOV departments that crack down on these things ? who approves these cars with the so called 2x,xxxkm's ?

I did not know how to answer him so i will leave it to him to read the answers i get from my post.

Greatly appreciated guys.

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
