They will be showin a story tommorrow night about how Klms are being wound back. Saw a r33 gtr - apparently had 130,000 when bought at auction, but is being sold with 70,000 klms on the clock. They didnt show any other cars apart from a hilux ute.

looks like it man....but they are doing the story as if the klms changed once the car landed here......

i thought it said that on the auction sheet it showed 130,000 klms and it showed 70,000 on the car.

wouldn't that mean that it was wound back here??

ha ACA sucks, im sure they'll related it to Km's been wound back importing cars, then illegal modifying (defects) , then hoon behavior, then how hoons are all on ice... all in the space of one segement.

I can't wait till the media get to the "the sky is falling" by chicken little and

go into how the young minds are all doing pot ......

Oh they already did that last night :)

What next NEWS FLASH

RECENT EVENTS HAVE MADE US SUSPECT

"the politicians......are they lying to us or telling us the truth" :O

I think it is all the authorities, trying to come up with why we are spending so much money in running them.

And, the fact that they have discovered something no-one knew before... :D

Does the car have aftermarket guages??? - coz that would explain alot!

yeah bec - it had one of those ?nismo? 320km/h speedos (blue numbers with white backing) - which obviously would mean that it was changed at around 60,000klms. But ACA doesnt know about this - although they and most of the media are "specialists" when it comes to jap imports.

I reckon it would be funny to see what they have to say. probably another story to deter people from buying imports?

Pretty much all importers wind back clocks.

Digital distance counters are even easier to wind back. Just reflash a rom chip and off you go. Big discussion was in the Stagea section a while back.

As far as who does it, its the guys in Aus that do it and some people in Japan. 10,000km here, 10,000km there, it all adds up to reduce the km's heaps by the time it finally gets here.

And yeh, as above, its nothing new. Goooooo MEDIA! LOL

Most grey imports are that GREY IMPORTS, They speedo could be replaced etc so even in Japan they aren't a true guide to actual Kilometers done in a vehicle.

Rule of thumb by an import then do 100,00km service to be sure :)

well actually i recon its better than the all Muslims are terrorists stories they were doing a few weeks ago..... give them a few more weeks/months they will come up with another fad that they will kill to death

Wait till they discover me.

    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much

    • 😜 hopefully we get this instead of a new R36 GTR due to recent financial problems at Nissan. Nismo to sell a complete kit with RB26 and driveline. All starts making sense (ok maybe not) once the Nissan Leaf's (Leaves?) with stuffed EV motors/batteries hit the market cheap
