Ok so I thought the engine number was on the plate which it is not. Is there something I'm missing.

Engine Number is usually on the side of the block.

Not on the Blue Plate... If that is what you are thinking..?

Yeah for some reason I thought the number would also be on the blue plate, and that would correlate with the block.

No, the blue plate will not have the engine number on it.

Unless you know for sure the engine you got in at the moment is from another GTR and have the build plate for that GTR too...

You'd assume it's just modified from the previous owner.

Thanks for your help mate.

Just so I got this straight the chassis number does not have an original engine number allocated to it.

Cheers

Correct.

Unless you can manage to find the paper work from the Nissan Dealer in Japan from where you GTR came from...

They might have a record... :laugh:

Hahaha :)

and here I was concerned about not having matching original engine and chassis numbers.

I see, thanks for that.

How many Km's has your GTR done (Speedo) VS the amount of Km's the "Used Engine" has done..?

Do you know if the timing belt has been changed?

Any stickers..?

Odometer reads 147,xxx km. I have no idea how many km is on the used engine, I guess I could go by the stealership and ask, but those guys are either honestly dumb on the cars they sell or they play dumb to keep from having to be liable for anything. there is a sticker on the radiator fan shroud I believe, i'll snap a pic of it, but that's the only one I see (that's non-factory looking to me). as much shitty luck as I've had with this car, it wouldn't surprise me if it's not been changed, hell it might just be some bailing wire and duct tape under the damn cover for all I know. so many problems/surprises with this car...ugh.

how do you input the vin in FAST? I have a "friend" who has a copy of FAST and can't seem to figure out how to use certain features on it, like looking up VIN's. :D

I see, I guess depends on how far you want to take it with the dealership but I guess, just fix it up slowly, getting it back to how you want it.

Unless you got the time and money for a full rebuild, then you will know for sure it's all good.

"Put your VIN code in the "VIN code" box in FAST" - As simple as that sounds :laugh:

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
