niz, if ya have a yellow and don't go down before the expiration of the specific date on the sitcker, they send you a letter to hand in your number plates as the car is deemed illegal, trust me i learnt by experience luckily they extended my expiry date :(

Next week it will be back from Sydney.

Have 2 guys who have first dibs on it ( thanks lumpy ) but you can certainly have a look at it.

I have bought in 6 GTR's in 2 years and even the grade 3.5 's needed work and they were 92's and 93's.

Would be surprised if the 89's didn't need at least the same if not more. If they are mint examples they go for a lot more than 700,000 yen or so. Check the dealer prices and yahoo japan for a truer indication on the good ones.

I paid 550,000 yen for my r33. It was dead stock when it got here and was listed as a grade 4. Apart from 1 pin dent, which I think happened on the way here, it was a grade 4 car. Since then and a few australian carparks later its got 1 more pin dent, a paint scrape (that should polish out with a cut and polish) and a small dent in the drivers side door. I think I paid a pretty high price for a 94 dead stock car, but the condition is excellent.

    • Yes, I had ordered the spherical bushings at the same time as the rest. I have high hopes for the anti squat reduction kit. 
    • Make sure you use the spherical bushes** on the lower arms, ifyou do that. ** at least, if not the whole replacement lower arm.
    • The tap for coolant flow control will be stuck open. It's not just the air door motor that dies.
    • Not really, but the heater box is pretty simple mechanically....if the door is one way the air bypasses the heater core and if it is the other way it goes through it for warm air.  If you are sure the actuator you moved manually is for the heater mix (there would also be one for output air direction) then I'd take the heater box out and see what is happening (you'll have to regass and re-coolant the systems afterwards) BTW pp724 onwards from the GTR workshop manual cover the system in good detail, it is probably worth checking. I think the IAT sensor might be a problem electrically for getting cold (if you got 24 error code not -24 it thinks the incoming air is -50c) and it covers how to test the sensor (although most likely it is either not plugged in or a wire is damaged)
