Hey guys
New to skylines (been driving a 300ZX Z31 for the last couple of years). I'm about to purchase a 96 R33 skyline GTS-T M Spec.
I went to have a look at it today, chassis was in perfect condition, however 2 things we picked up on.
First - turbo didn't seem to pull as much as other R33's we had driven, there was however a lot of induction noise (what we think was induction). The car only had a pod filter on, loosely fitted. So we suspect it was that. I put a deposit down then decided to go for another drive, as I pulled out of the car lot, the car died and wouldn't rev. Letting the car idle, it was surging up and down and running rough. The car dealer said it was nothing to worry about - was probably the mass air flow sensor needing resetting (how do u reset that lol?) or a coil pack and would be fixed by the time I pick the vehicle up.
Is this something I should be worrying about or something I need to look further into? Could this be related to why the turbo wasn't pulling? I know a fair bit about cars, and nissans in particular but turbo's are new to me!
So help me out guys! help ease me into the skyline world!
The only other problem was the suspension (way to hard - bouncing all of the place) but easy to fix that one I think.
Car has VERY low k's and price is right.
Cheers ppl,
Matt
