I'm currently selling my 97 Fairmont, great car, want to buy it? Didn't think so...anyway...Here's the ad I put a few weeks back on Carsales:

Carsales Ad

Today I get a call from a potential buyer saying that my car looks the same as another one in this ad, and questioned whether my photos were in fact of my car!

Carsales Ad #2

So this guy has taken my photos, blanked out the number plates and used them for his own ad! Needless to say, I've since got in contact with this seller with a few loaded questions. Typical response - my dad listed the car, he doesn't speak english, he tooks the photos a year ago so it looked a bit different back then, actually I think the car has sold already!

ahahah that is funny shit, dudes name is mohomoud and lives in thommo says in the ad, damn stereotypes, say no more. Suprised his not cruising around in a vl turbo re. U should be asking him for a slice of his selling price due to your photography skills. good luck with your sale.

looks the same to me.. the bonnet protector could have been removed later, that is all I would have thought (photos taken earlier)

I don't think anybody would pick it to be honest.. good ol' aussie cars... all look the same.

    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
