Good luck getting that translated

Its really weird. Apparently alot of the auctioneers don't write japanese, they put all their comments in english (or their idea of english) and they actually write in down on the paper with japanese letters. .. So its hard even for japanese speaking people to read..

Not to mention the scribble that is your auction sheet.. They should definately make bigger spaces for comments - considering alot of these cars are highly modified

:headspin:

well there is a few things you can tell about it without needing to read japanese. firstly, it's an accident grade car. secondly it's a 1989 model. body doesn't look too bad. some pin dents and something up with passenger side window, some sratches and possibly indicating some accident repair (not really sure). your buyer should be able to have this interpreted for you.

I can read most of it - it's definitely in japanese, LOL - the core problems with auction sheets are:

1. handwriting tends to be atrocious

2. kanji is small (often this partly to do with the size of the scan) - makes it hard to differentiate

3. they write in a 'code' - a kind of shorthand - people in 'the know' will understand it - but if you don't know the lingo/abbreviations - it can be guesswork only

If no-one transaltes it soon, I'll tell you what I can

(blacky - if you are reading this - I haven't forgotten about you, I just haven't had the time/opportunity to pass on your sheet)

Thanks for your input! =)

The details for this Auction sheet:

R33 N1 turbos

Mines modified ECU

OS twin plate clutch

Mines direct shifter

N1 headlights

Pivot tension rods

Nismo speedo

Adjustable suspension

N1 brake rotors

HKS exhaust (with front pipe)

Mines strut brace

Apexi air filter

Brake master cylinder stopper

Can the mines ecu be tuned in australia?...... And how does it compare to others like the Apexi PFC or E-manage?

:flamed:

bet he's stoked now, N1 turbos... :cheers:

Yeah i'm reading DaiOni, and thats cool, whenever u get round to it is ok. I've had a few people have a stab at it now including J exchange students and they all think its hard to read. But they all manage to get "Rigid Spacer"! .

blacky

here's part 1, I'll try to squeeze in a bit more later:

89 bnr32 GTR, gunmetal grey

* 65,710km. Km are listed as 'unclear' as the car has a nismo speedometer

* r33 rb26dett

*n1 turbos

* frontpipe (downpipe, or whatever you want to call it)

* cat-back exhaust

* mines cpu

* OS twin plate clutch

* mines 'direct shift' (??)

* rollbar

* n1 rotors

* boost meter

* lots of little scratches, including stonechip(s), and scratched rims

* there is a bit that looks like 'no factory parts' - but it's under the bit about the nismo dash (hard to tell if they are connected) - so it may be saying 'has a replacement speedo, and no original speedo' (so - can't verify kms)

I'll need to get my magnifying glass out for the rest, :)

okay, part II...

* I can't deceipher the first 'sales point' - first kanji is 'car', second appears to be 'high', I think the last is chou - which can mean condition/style. It's a total guess, but I think the inference is that this is a 'high-level car' (probably a reference to the degree of modification)

* has 17" rims

* has a 'takuu' bar (?)

* from my translation, it says "The owner has done a lot of modifications to this car, to confirm everything (on the car) come and look at it". I think, it suggests that there may be a lot more mods to the car

* pillow-ball tension rods

* oil catch can

* there's something about lock-nuts and a spare key - but not sure what (I would hope it says that they come with the car...)

* seat(s?) are worn/damaged

* the floor of the boot has been repaired

* the car has had repairs done, including dent repairs ('dent' is a very cool kanji - you learn something every day!)

* there are scratches and dents on the underbody (I'd assume there probably is surface rust too - but that is not listed)

* rear 'spo' (I'm guessing that is an abbrev. form of 'spoiler'...) has a scratch

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
