Edwards Lees have a Supra coming in that I have the auction sheets for. The weird thing is, they have listed the car as 0kms on their site, in carsales and on gumtree. I wonder why.. ?

Ill reveal the Information I have when they reveal the Kms on the car.

Perhaps they're waiting for ^^ your post to see if the coast is clear?

How would "you" feel if you were an emigrant

> shipped out from Japan

> your medical records were lost

> washed and dried instead of being examined

> arthritic rust covered up with cream

> given a face lift instead of a liver detox

> sold off as a virgin slave who's never done a marathon

Wasn't referring to you Chris :)

Strongly recommend the black 1999 "vspec 2" currently at Edward Lees, complete with epic front end hit and home made vspec 2 sticker.

Great buy.

Jeebuz these guys are pushing it too far..

There will be an 18 y/o that will buy that. Same as my customer bought a manual GTV ( think about that for a second) as they were all auto.

Lol, don't buy an RX7 from Edward Lees either....

http://www.edwardlees.com.au/stock/1999-mazda-rx7-type-rb-3041.htm

"Mint Mint Mint and totally original and stock standard RX-7 . Rare, unmolested, unmodified – Travelled just 56,000 kms this car is like new inside and out."

Rare, unmolested, unmodified.......apart from the aftermarket exhaust, gear knob, turbo timer, strut tower brace, pedals, stereo system.....what a dick head. Judging by the wear on the steering wheel and seats I would say that this car has well over 100,000km on it.

Wow

I've been referred to as a tarted up import and a lemon, all in the one topic.

Last time I bring in an immaculate GTR with 256,000kms and sell it with 33,000.

Kidding!

if you are not in a hurry. i can help you import one. dreamcarcity.com.au

Congrats on your newly updated website! Seems this new one allows you full control over the VIN/chassis number field. Fortunately I have some screenshots of the old one - not GTR's but some interesting V series on there:

1st post - enjoy your free advertising and welcome to SAU.

(EDIT: I suppose these will all turn out to be consignment cars... :rolleyes: )

Name change to nightmare car city perhaps?

I am so over the constant clipping of kms. It has a negative impact on everyone involved, from dealers to buyers. If I was buying again I think I would only go with a car that has had one trusted australian owner with history and NOT bought from dodgy dealer or import again myself.

This Supra is for sale somewhere. Do your research, find out where and then know not to buy your GTR's from there. Or any other car for that matter.

:)

That is shocking. Plus it looks like its got some serious accident damage history with the entire panels from one side and the boot replaced. That shouldnt have been complianced!

It needs to be compulsory for imports to be sold with their de-registration papers. If they cant supply dereg certificate, go somewhere else!

    • Its also worth mentioning that 30 years after it left the factory and god knows how many missed oil changes since, there is every possibility that one or more lifters are ticking because they are sticky/gummed up. To resolve that you need to pull the cams then pull each lifter, disassemble, clean, reassemble, soak in oil and re-install, and they should come up good as new.
    • What air filter are you running? Is it a panel filter in the stock air box, or a pod filter? Is the air filter the type that is oiled?   If you unplug the IACV, what rpm does the engine idle at?
    • Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.
    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
