I had a Japanese guy (Indy from IS Motorsports) look at my car about 10yrs ago and he never seen or heard of an ADM, I explained it to him and he found it interesting but I think he still preferred his bayside blue r34

Re-Auction result on the N1 Vspec II, 50,000km, grade 4 B yesterday, Sold around 3,100,000 yen, around $44,000 landed and complied + on roads. That's seems to me a bit of a bargain, however condition in person was probably not as good as the auction report suggested.

Thoughts?

sell, wife, kids, pets, borrow from mob - acquire car and restore it to prestine condition and profit?

You saying that only cause, due to the bargain price it sold for?

O'seas buyers as well as Aussie buyers bid for that VS2 N1.

The seller had second thoughts about his reserve this wk > more realistic.

No bubbling paintwork but surface rust underneath abounds.

It might have thrown some bidders off, but it shouldn't have.

Wishing the Aussie successful bidder all the best...

particularly whilst a UK seller is asking for over 90,000 pounds (i understand)

Just wanted to reiterate what Bob said a few pages back, buy the best car you can, within a reasonable budget.

Generally speaking you will end up with a nicer/more original car AND save money.

Bargain at the start very rarely is in the long run.

Absolutely

And looking at all of the detailed pictures of the VS II N1, it was not in very good condition. 4B was a huge exaggeration in the actual quality of the car.

It's interesting that it has climate control and a radio

a lot of the N1's appear to have been factory optioned that way

I've yet to see an N1that has one :wacko:

Agree.

I keep in touch with a few owners and only know of 1 in Canada that is without both.

Some nice cars in here, can anyone help me out with the part numbers for the front section of the nismo 3 piece side skirts? The part that attaches to the front guard?

I used someone's chassis number to order the correct bolts to put r33 brembos on the front of my r32 since the r33 bolts are too long. I'm hoping the bolts for the r32 brembo equipped cars will be the right length.

Thanks guys

Talking to jesse streeter, I need a chassis number to go with the numbers above in the above pic. Does anyone know for sure there gtr had these nismo 3 piece skirts from the factory. Maybe I need a chassis number from one of this nismo r32's

You should just be able to buy the Nismo 3 piece side skirt on its own...

Try Import Monster / Just Jap / RHD Japan.

interesting. That drivers seat is pretty worn for such a tiny amount of k's! 6.5 Mill yen is not completely outrageous, but probably a little steep. However i suspect that it is worth all of a 5 mill yen price tag. That front lip needs to be painted 326 crystal white! Remove those stupid V Spec II N1 badges (particularly since it is not a V Spec II) from the back boot, take out that stereo and replace those rubbish tyres. Aside from that, over all it looks like a clean original V Spec N1.

    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
    • Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.
    • Hmmm, interesting. Makes me wonder whether there is bias as well. It's the cheapest fuel, so it is used for all kinds of ill-maintained shitboxes which are bound to have issues regardless. Nicer cars tend to require higher octane rated fuel and can't use it anyway. FWIW, the official NSW E10 facts page is decent.
