hey guys

Anyone seen this car before:

http://www.gatty.net/gtr/

it's a gtst with gtr kit, stock everything, auto

if this used to be your car - or someone you know, or you have spotted it before then let me know.

My mate just brought it, import guy told him fresh into country about a month or so ago....but I think he's full of shit - turbo has now gone in it and no warranty...

I spoke to someone who swore they seen it on Sunny Coast area months ago - justw anted to know if the import dealer is full of shit

FYI: the stickers on the window and side are not where he got it - AJM are ok guys me thinks :O They complied it apparently for this 'importer'

and yes, my mate is a dumb f*ck...lol

am i the only one who thinks maybe you should check the compliance plate under the bonet???

Check the compliance plate it will have the date of compliance on it. I doubt it has been in a yard for 12 months. If it is a new SEVS plate it will be purple in colour the old ones were green. I didn't think AJM was a RAW, in fact I am certain they aren't.

why do people such bullshit cars? especially from dealers?? :D

Ahhhh! i know!

I see it all the time, so what if it has some graphics on the side, ive seen some of the worst examples of skylines at AJM and espesially at IVS.

They are terrible, interior is stuffed, engine looks tired.. they just spice it up and sell for more than a good example goes for. its robbery!

And yet people still buy them

Graphics on side of car from dealer = stay away. Graphics stuck on my car = buy it!! :D

Graphics stuck on side to suck in you impressionable buyer to hide fact turbo is shot, or probably bad scratches/chips underneath. Graphics cost $90, new turbo or paintjob costs big bucks.

I've seen some really bad stuff from dealers, even recently when I went looking for a skyline with my mate.

ok, here's what happened

since you guys 'known' AJM i'll lay it out

i took him for a cruise in my 33 N/A - 2 weeks later he was hooked so wanted one, he went down to brissie. SMS'd me told me he had picked one up cheap, looks sweet but is a auto - i told him to tak the fucer back :rant:

Anyway - we get it home and it's running like 1 pound boost, has GTR kit (copy) has some black volk rims as you can see - but closer inspections shows they are ****ED all peeling and shit, Car has had fresh re-spray - but a bodgey job. Sticker son side to add 50kw's :)

I ive him a few races and i blow him away, turbo just laaaags, doesn't boost at all - took it to my other mate who works at a import join on sunny coast 1 weekend when I was down therew for a drive and turbo is shot

So he rings AJM and they said 1 month only warranty, i was like WTF - 3 months i thought...but it's a 94 model so oder cars only get 1 month....

Interior of car is pretty bad, my n/a is immaculate - his has all scratches everywhere and big chunks out of centre console...

worst thing is it's a GTSt with GTR badge :D

i brought my car from http://www.mjrmotorsport.com - my clutch was ****ed when i got it (went 6 weeks later totally) I rnage and they also said too bad, offered to source me a 'cheap' nissan plate - but opted to buy a full Greedy kit - other than that i found MJR to be ok guys....unless you guys know otherwise?

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
