I'm sure theres more just can't thing of it..

Problems..

A/C Was removed for intercooler( Tinted windows reduces a lot of heat )

Cruise control was removed for Catch Can

Both units will be included with the sale just not hooked up.(Wiring Loom & Vaccum lines are all there)

Rear spoiler was hit has been touched up, proberly cost 100-200 to repair no fibreglass damage!

Sometimes gets lifter noise on cold start up lasts 3-4 secs (Common in vls)

Has noise coming from diff/tailshaft ,maybe center bering ( May Fix depends on price i get for it)

Never Thrashed it, Transmission shifts fine never slips, Wheels and tyres were bought a year ago and still have 90-95% all round (Recipts etc to prove)

Lost interest in VL's wanting something newer. May consider swaping plus cash for somethign newer eg. R33/R32

Currently not in Roadworthy condition with the catch Can and wheels being to big and a few minor issues but can organise something..

    • I have replaced the larger coolant temp sensor, i do see a smaller one next to it (looks to be just 1 pin) but i assume that is just for the dash? or should i replace that aswell?
    • Check coolant temp sensor ~ symptoms fit the hard hot start/cold start OK scenario --- if sensor goes open circuit, ECU thinks engine is cold and enriches mixture ....works when engine cold, but floods them with rich mixture when hot (Hyundi MAP engines are a bit infamous for this)...
    • OK, starter changed for a spare without much trouble. Neil had kindly left space to get to the top starter motor bolt from above with a long spanner which makes the whole deal much easier, and everything else was neat and easy to get at from underneath. Once the starter was changed everything was good, unplugged the CAS and turned the motor on the starter to make sure everything was free and happy. Onto properly priming the oil and first start. I'd picked up one of these oil prime kit from Boost doc a while back and this was my first time using it.  https://boostdoc.com.au/products/engine-oil-prime-kit?_pos=1&_sid=28c628a65&_ss=r While I'd organised all the fittings to hook it up to my GTR (sump plug to -6 feed and -4 T to tap it in and retain the oil pressure gauge, neither suited on this car as the oil pressure needs to T into 1/8 NPT not -4 and the Aeropro sump has some massive drainplug not that factory whatever it is. So, waiting for a couple of fittings, then I'll prime it and do first start, hopefully next weekend. Other than that going well, there is very little stopping a final alignment, tune then shakedown day
    • Also to mention, i just tested the CAS, seems to be working fine, can hear the pulses inbetween 0 and 180 degrees, another mention aswell, when i let the car sit for about a hour today, i went to start it and it almost fired on first crank, then just completely struggled. Could it possibly be blocked injectors?, maybe allowing a little bit of fuel to seep past allowing it it almost start first crank?
