If youre going to ask around double what most people would list an R33 for, you might want to actually spend the time typing out whats been done to it to justify the (in my opinion) excessively high price.

Dont think it really cuts it just saying 'ring for details'.

EDIT: Not trying to knock your sale or anything, but youre really wont be getting much interest unless you actually give people *some* info here, eg manual/auto? Ks? Modifications? Accident history? etc

Thanks for your comments swanny180,

I have had this advertised for awhile and was going for another way of trying to get people to ring me, as I was not even getting time wasters. It was a way of getting them to actually come out and view the vehicle, as no photo does the same justice as seeing it in the flesh. As soon as you see this car you can see where the stupid amount of money I spent went. And you think it you have spent around a total investment of $100, 000 with the majority of that in receipts, you might get some interest, but sadly no.

And I had also advertised it in around 7 spots yesterday, with the price change and mostly in interstate papers and as you know you are quite limited in what you can say in them without it costing an arm and a leg.

So I was in the mind frame of paper writing. So thanks for the link back to the old thread MR sniper911.

Cheers Dave

(ps. as I have not stated this in any of the threads, it has had no accidents.)

    • Ah right. Maybe my rb just loves chewing through batteries lol.
    • On the R34 can't you just unplug the IACV? This is the way I've always done it on the R33. Disconnect IACV, get it idling around 650rpm, and then do a power reset on the ECU to get it to relearn idle (factory ECU).   The big reason no one has touched on as to why you'd want to get the base idle right, is that it means the computer needs to make smaller adjustments to get a good idle at 700-750rpm.   Also, cleaning the IACV won't normally make the car suddenly idle lower or higher. The main issue with the IACV gumming up is that the valve sticks. This means the inputs the ECU gives, aren't translating to changes in air flow. This can cause idle choppy ness as the ECU is now needing to give a lot of input to get movement, but then it moves too far, and then has to do the same in reverse, and it can mean the ECU can't catch stalls quickly either.
    • 12.8 for a great condition, fully charged battery. If the battery will only ever properly charge to about 12.2V, the battery is well worn, and will be dead soon. When I say properly charge, I mean disconnect it from the car, charge it to its max, and then put your multimeter on it, and see what it reads about an hour later. Dieing batteries will hold a higher "surface charge", but the minutest load, even from just a multimeter (which in the scheme of things is considered totally irrelevant, especially at this level) will be enough over an hour to make the surface charge disappear.   I spend wayyy too much time analysing battery voltages for customers when they whinge that our equipment (telematics device) is causing their battery to drain all the time. Nearly every case I can call it within about 2 months of when the battery will be completely dead. Our bigger customers don't even debate it with me any more ha ha ha. A battery at 12.4 to 12.6 I'd still be happy enough with. However, there's a lot of things that can cause a parasitic draw in a car, first of which is alarms and immobilisers. To start checking, put your multimeter into amps, (and then connect it properly) and measure your power draw with everything off. Typical car battery is about 40aH. Realistically, you'll get about half this before the car won't start. So a 100mA power drain will see you pretty much near unstartable in 8 days.
    • Car should sit at 12.2 or more, maybe 12.6 or 12.7 when fully charged and happy. If there is a decent enough parasitic load then it will certainly go lower than 12.2 with time. You can't beat physics.
    • Ok guess I can rule out the battery, probably even the starter and alternator (maybe) as well. I'm gonna clean those leads and see what happens if it's still shit I might take it to an auto electrician. Unless the immobiliser is that f**king heavy, but it shouldn't be.  If I start the car every day, starts up perfectly never an issue. Isn't 12v low, shouldn't it be around 12.5v?
