ITS NOT  AN ACCIDENT REPARED CAR

Thats what I thought, sorry I wasnt doubting your kanji translation. ylwgtr2 seems to think its a smashed vehicle. So they give out Grade 4s based on a lucky door prize now do they?

Isnt that the whole point of the grading system to pick out the good cars from the bad and damaged ??? (insert super confused smiley)

ok then.........get this.....I repaired a 2003 nissan primera with 242klms on it in 2003.....it got sent to USS after i done it and it got a grade 4 :S........ something is wrong....why is it in the 4000 section?It may be there due to the question mark in the klms......Do you have the original sheet or is it a copy that has been emailed to you?Im not doubting your translation eitheir...just from what i have seen 1st hand these papers are "only a guide"and should be looked at with an open mind when buying

and blacky's paper also has a ? for the klms but its not in the 4000 section....and there both in considerably fainter(is that a word???) in writing....As the guy in the cadbury chocolate ad said "why is it so!"...it would be nice to actually pin point where the problem be if its my mistake,dodgy paperwork or whatever the case may be

Thats the one I got sent via email. Ive seen that question mark high lighted on other auction reports, ill see if I can find one.

The Supra I bought from Nagoya, according to j-spec the numbers 4001 - 4500

and 4501 - 7999 are at the "Green 2 block", and 1001 - 1500, 1501 - 2999 are the R graded vehicles.

your supra was from uss nagoya 29/10 @ 805,000yen ..non accident car ..mileage is correct...different uss auction have different lot numbering ...uss tokyo accident cars start 5000 #.... nagoya as above (j-spec)...question mark would be circled if mileage was sus and mileage unknown would be on auction sheet....settle down don`t listen to legends youve got a nice car there

Dam, if I can't trust the auction grade I'm screwed.  

Haven't bought the car but it will put me off getting

another Skyline if I can't rely on it.  

How can we resolve this one?

Stick to the grading system, and get it looked at, or ask jake, he really knows his shit.

I7B is airbag, im 100% sure of that one.

Thanks for the help jake, got rid of the confusion.

sorry blacky - I've been at a work seminar most of this week. If I get a break next week, I'll see what I can do for you. As I (think) I said, I've got the majority of it worked out - but I'm going to show a native the things I don't, as I simply can't deceipher the handwriting.

However, I have a feeling it's largely in 'auction sheet code/shorthand' - and is not going to be understandable for the people I can show it to

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
