Just thought id add some info as i know the owner who first bought this car (my friend ordered the wheels from jap and paide $1500ea)

The car was imported to be the test vehicle to comply under the new raws system. There for it means the vehicle is not aloud to be in an accident, must not have any rust on it and basically be in immaculate condition. This was a year and half ago (maybe abit longer). Then it was easy one of the cleanest examples i had seen.

Thanks RNS11Z i didn't know that but there you go.

Davidj76 - The gear box and diffs are smooth and not clunky like some of the one out the but it is a 94 model car so it's like its going to be brand new.

Not too sure about the oil, the last service was done be Amberly Autos/Horse Power Factory so hoping they used the good stuff.

RE Customs did a pressure test and said that it was really good for an RB26 not sure on the numbers though.

I haven't had any of the other done but i know how fussy the Horse Power Factory is and they would have told me if things needed to be changed.

Cheers

Guys - be wary dealing with this guy.

I'm located in Sydney and was interested in the car. I rang him beforehand, discussed details and price, and everything seemed fine.

I told him I was interested, and paid him a deposit to hold the car until I was able to drive down and visually inspect it.

A thousand kilometers of driving later, I arrive in Melbourne on a Friday afternoon to be told by him that the car wasn't available and was at the mechanics. A little concerning to say the least. I then find that additional mechanical work has been done, and that the price has increased $550 for a new coil. We agree to split the difference but am advised I'm unable to view the car until around 7pm - just when it gets dark. Wonderful.

Still interested, I turn up to find the car in what I would call 'average' condition. All four tyres are roadworthy, but only just, and would need replacing almost immediately. Chalk up another $1000 to be spent shortly.

Other items requiring attention that aren't mentioned - air conditioning not working. He advised it needed a regas but didn't say why it had lost gas in the first place (worst case scenario repair/regas/new gas conversion - possible additional $1000).

Also, on a minor note, the drivers seat appeared to be twisted/broken, and a few small electrical components didn't appear to be working (interior light/stereo badly distorted).

I advised him that I was still interested, but needed to estimate the possible additional costs and get the car inspected by an independent mechanic the next day. He says that's cool and I advise I'll contact him tomorrow. I sms him later that night to advise of inspection details and he replies and says that's cool.

Saturday morning I get a second sms advising that he didn't realise it was Saturday, had to work that day, and that the car wasn't available. I couldn't believe it! I drive all the way from Sydney after a week of organising things, and the freaking cars' not available to be inspected??? I try to contact him via phone a number of times, but it goes straight to voicemail. I leave a message, and send an sms asking him to contact me as I'm running out of time and need to begin the return to Sydney the next morning.

No response. Also no response when I try to contact him again that afternoon.

At this stage, I'm pretty freaking angry. I've driven all the way down to Melbourne for nine hours with my girlfriend, spent $250 on fuel, had to arrange for accommodation while I'm down there - and that's not even taking into account the return trip, or the cost of security checks on the vehicle VIN (another $35).

Eventually I get real angry, and ring his home number. I only manage to speak to his sister, who advises me he's not available and in the shower. I tell her to let him know that if I don't hear from him shortly I'll start ringing every half an hour. She says she'll let him know - all the time talking to a voice in the background.

Ten minutes later I get an sms advising that he's received a higher offer from another buyer, and won't be selling the car to me.

I take the long drive back to Sydney - extremely disappointed, and having been taken for a very different ride from the one I expected.

Guys like this piss me off. He's been trying to sell the car for months, and when he finally gets a serious buyer he f**ks them around. Not a cool thing to do when they're travelling from interstate. Not only that, to add insult to injury, I notice that the car remains for sale - with an increased pricetag that I would have gladly paid - if only he'd told me what he wanted at the time - instead of being gutless and lying to me.

You don't know how tempted I was to send around a few friends to test drive his 're-advertised' car - right into a ditch.

Instead, I'm gonna do the right thing, and concentrate on finding my dream car, but I severely hope the little f**ker gets what coming to him. He's not a true Skyline enthusiast, because we should be sharing our common interest, not f**king each other over...

IF YOU ARE INTERSTED IN THE CAR CALL ME AND SPEAK TO ME ABOUT IT AND DONT GO OF WHAT SOME ONE ELSE HAS SAID AND COME AND LOOK AT IT YOURSELF.

I HAVE SPOKEN TO SEEN ENOUGH PEOPLE FROM THESE FORUMS AND I AM SURE THEY CAN BACK UPI MY CASE.

AGAIN IF YOU WANT TO LOOK AT IT PLEASE GIVE ME A CALL AND SPEAK TO ME.
