when i purchased my gtr, the owners brother(owner wasnt there, everything was legit, so all good), handed my os giken twin plate(needed rebuild).

looked underneth, had tien coilovers.

trust 4inch cooler.

tuned y pipe, 3inch cat and cat back.

those were the parts i didnt know of.

did you check and see how good the ah 'mines ecu' under the back seat was, or did you just throw it out?

Tossed it ,it was not in very good condition,i think it had been there a while.

Edited by I gotta R34gtr v-spec

I bought my 34 a long time ago.. About 2 years after i bought it i went to install red bulbs behind my dash. I took the dash apart then went reaching in behind there and found some wires that seemed a bit "out of place".. So i looked up under there and followed the wires back and found a Greddy full auto turbo timer sitting in there!? hidden amongst all the other wires. All i had to do was turn it back on and mount it and boom. Free turbo timer. :D Also found a Japanese jdm game token coin like thing under my seat..

Found a 1979 20cent piece behind the roof vinyl interior of my 1981 Stanza. So I can only assume the coin was lost there while the car was on the assembly line. Still have the coin somewhere....

Found yellow jackets tucked down the left side of my r32's boot still in there packets! (Hopefully will fit my rb20) :)

Was looking at buying rear hicas lock bar.. Had a look underneath and already had one :)

Nismo front strut bar with Nismo stamped into it (hopefully genuine.. Not sure if those are even rare..

And last but not least about $18 worth of shrappaz!

In my 33 i Found split fires, dodgy wiring in the tail lights, really old jdm gaff tape in the doors, wierd wires all through the car, a USB with the guys birth certificate license and all his tickets, jdm coins, aus coins $14 worth, Japanese rego sticker

And the classic dried up maccas chip

4 children's nursery rhyme CDs behind the dash, played that shit all day!

Shell battery from Japan? You can't buy them here.

Shell service stickers all over and in the car from Japan.

On my gf car I found a threaded head with the spark plug sitting on top and some more threaded bolts on the thermostat housing. It was a fluke it even ran.

found tanabe GF210 on my stock springs heh i knew them orange springs were weird! also found the lock nut key from previous owner's set of nuts, which he had the tyre guys smash off, thus running only 4 nuts (until i bought a new set of nuts). what a nub. it was in the compartment which had the spare tyre jack in it, i noticed something rolling around inside.

    • Yeah pretty impressive hey, good to see quality products not over-shooting their prices. That's what drew me to buy the hypergear turbo, just a shame I've never got the chance to see it in action
    • Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand. 
    • Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!
    • I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
