I came across this ER34 skyline, was real interested in it so i did an odometer check and the results are shocking [emoji33]

I went to check it out again to confirm if vin# was correct and dealer said it's sold. I hope he is lieing to me and it really isn't sold, poor person who bought it if it's truly sold.

Pm me if u wanna know more details

Thanks

Pretty sure nothing wrong with naming when you have hard evidence for others to judge...it's when people say "this place is shit because I / my mate had a bad experience with them, trust me" that you put the forums in danger of defamation.

We had an Edward Lees thread in general automotive that shitcanned the place and the mods didn't shut it down - think the evidence was irrefutable?

The reality is if you're publishing information that is publically accessible then no crime being committed, especially if all you're doing is stating fact...defamation only applies for things that aren't true or can't be proven.

So I guess in this instance you can't accuse them of tampering with odos, but you can say they're selling or sold a car that auction papers show to be a different condition ;)

I went to check this out on the weekend and had a chat to the guy that bought it. I told him about the wear on the drivers seat which was worse than other cars showing 140kms plus and that the dealer had re-stitched the steering wheel...

Oh thought he was telling fibs about being sold. Correct steering wheel being re stitch and seat worn doesn't reflect 70k car. But I did take for a spin and was amazing how smooth the motor and gear box was. It was good drive. That why I did odometer check coz I was keen on it.

      That looks good, but I think you're going to need much beefier side skirts now.

      They are daft and there's a reason it never caught on. Steering feel? We don't need no stinking steering feel!

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
