Something that did stand out about the car, I was just thinking about it, has an ATS twin plate carbon in it and when turning the car off there was a pronounced rattle as the flywheel/pressure plate stopped turning.

I'm aware of rattle on idle, but wasn't aware of pronounced rattle on shutdown.

Thoughts?

Slight rattle post ignition being off on mine as well (Nismo twinplate)

K's come back as 55000 at export in 2007, his records show 65000 on the odo when he bought it in 09/10 and it has 85 on it now, seems about right.

No auction papers due to when it was exported.

Jap history gave me that for free in the end given the delay, he mentioned email/hosting dramas.

I offered our services...

Looks like I'll aim for weekend after this one to go collect it and will start getting parts together and lining up the paint work.

Also...

Wanted:
VSpec front and rear diffusers.
Vspec pedal set.
Front inner wheel plastic sections - front most pieces left and right.
Rear spoiler, genuine or copy - but must be standard style. Carbon wing blade welcome.
Black wheel nuts - preferably Rays.
Rays Centre caps.
Nismo black drop sheet style seat covers front/rear.
Nismo gear knob, either the leather one or a black GT500 style one.
Things I will be selling/have to swap.
ARC Titanium Gearknob.
Bodyform Top Secret style FRP diffuser, with carbon look leading edge. Goes all the way back to the cross member. Pic below is of the same part, i can get full pics of the actual part when I collect it.
Rays red wheel nuts.
Standard mirrors in silver.
Standard guards in silver.
Freight to Wodonga will be required but I can also collect if anyone is in Canberra as I'll be up that way the weekend after this one. Collection from Melbourne also possible.
Cheers

Well I don't "have" it yet.

I'll be happy once it's aesthetically sorted. Power I'm in no rush for as it's just a street car and my days of racing everyone that might have looked at me are long gone.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
