slowpoke. yours is probaly +100,00kms too u just dont know it.

yours is 90,000km for a 93 car. which equals to about ~7000kms a year or ~500km a month... do u think thats right? or...

yours mates 190,000kms for a 94 car which is ~16,000km a year.. and ~1300km a month...

which seems more realistic? winding back clocks is a major thing wen importing a car! but either way u shouldnt be look at km's. condition is wat your after!

hmm.. the car is stock except that the turbo has been changed but im not sure to wat but its runnin at stock boost 0.5 =.= it does not have a fmic and injectors has not been changed as well.. the previous owner from my car when he imported it he did not drive it for like 2-3 years coz he was workin outstation at a mine... so... maybe i got lucky and bought it at tat price.. his engine has not been rebuilt.. and the boot is missin a part that covers the small area where the battery is.. that piece of grey thing... its like he only bought half a car =.="

you spent 50k on your line ? man i dont wanna be rude but i said "STOCK"..

phuong got his impul r33 for 14k, with tonnes of decent mods, i still think its stupid seeing all these dealers selling stocko lines for anything over 13k.

theres a guy near my place who's had the same 5 r33's for years now for sale, they are all around the 20k. its fkn stupid.

why?

If someone is willing to pay 20k for an r33 then why shouldnt the "guy near ur place" sell them for 20k?

there is a big difference between a thrashed out import and a nice clean, non-accident history one

thats my point, obviously if they have been sitting there for so long and no one has bought them then its a rip off :).

dispite what people think, i belive all imports are thrashed, no one buys a turbo car not to thrash it. or at least drive it hard.

clean, is ok, i was suprised when i bought my r32 at how damn clean it was for an r32, made me feel good when handing over the cash.

      Sounds like it is rotational in the driveline. CV? Tailshaft CB? Also.....didn't you just pay to have that bit painted and put on the car?

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yeah, when I dialled my idle down, given how much time I spent idling at the lights in traffic on my daily commute, the effect on overall fuel consumption was absolutely noticeable.

      Emissions, fuel consumption, heat, noise, etc. most likely.

      For me at least the reason why it bothers me is because it's indicative of a deeper problem. And that will nag at me forever. Especially because I have tailpipe emissions testing + evap leak testing every 2 years.

      WELP. I went to the track, and I suppose it went okay because any time you can drive home is okay. You may notice the car is not on the circuit in this picture. It was about 35C day out in Benalla which means the track was approximately the surface of the sun, probably. Good things, car did not overheat but it _was_ warmer than when I had done track days in similar heat before, I think, I'm not sure - I can't quite remember. Coolant got to ~105 via the ECU after 20-30 minutes of belting it in said heat. Oil got up to 145C in one instance which is pretty crazy due to oil cooler. Pressures were fine. I seem to remember this not getting quite so high before the vents. More HMMMM'ing to be done. On the subject of HMMM'ing, can anyone identify the sounds in the video below, you will know which ones I mean: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uj3BkI2cbTc I included some 'normal' sound as a reference for the first minute or so. The microphone in this instance was where the license plate is. It stopped working later in the day which is why my "best example of a lap video (not produced)" had internal audio - Isn't hearable from inside the car. I don't mean the chirping of the un-bedded/badly bedded track brakes which you can only hear while braking... Thoughts, brains trust?
