Previous Owner Of My R32

[GTR_STEALTH]

u tell me after jacking up the car turning the rear wheels (both wheels turning same direction) and then driving to find it sinling, wat kinda f*king difff is that

...one that is on the way out?

Take it easy champ, no need to get worked up.

wwoooooooossaaaaaaaaaahh!

[Belsil80]

for a fairly rediculous question you got off pretty lightly. refering to whats been done as the 'mod list' brings shopping lists to mind. hence the humourous comment.

anyway, good on you for asking. i spose it is a place to start. as some people have said, if you have no idea bring it along to a meeting or take it somewhere to have a look. daves idea is a good one too. besides forgies it shouldnt be too hard to see what there is. maybe put it on a dyno. that would give an indication of what things might have been done.

as for your 'fu(king' diff, its sounds like a stuffed lsd assuming sinling means single spinning. at a stab. bring it to deca and ill tell you exactly what it is.

Starion... what the hell are you on about? Jumped on his back taking the piss? its not all rainbows and lolilpops around here. i like to think that if people post up rubbish or silly questions they are going to be pulled up. unfortunately more and more crap gets posted and it now just gets over looked... and then there's the delicate whingers that will put an emo spin on everything. 'sami feels like the clown who got told to check his shopping list'.. you need to get some cotton wool and wrap yourself in it. sami should too if this is the case.

i know this is a long shot but i need to know wat my car has got

and please no talking shit

thanks

You gota photo of your enigne bay?

Why don't you take a few pics of your car = Engine bay, exhaust system, wheels and whatever looks aftermarket, post them up and we can have a look and help identify them...

I started laughing at work while talking to a customer on the phone at the "shopping list" comment. Made my day

On a serious note, people are joking about it because:

1) You purchased a car not knowing what has been done to it. This is a fairly big "no" for import cars.

2) You reacted way too damn seriously to a joke. You took it personally. If you take shit you read online personally, you are going to have a hell of a time anywhere.

Some of the more useful suggestions like take it to a workshop or even an SAU meeting are some good ideas.

[Starionturbo]

How do u ever know the history of the car.

Unless you bought the car new in Japan you never would know.

The majority of "stock" skylines o the roads these days would have been modified in some way or form.

Ever been to importers and seen the shit they bring in? Multi paneled, guages all over the place, straight pipes, mismatched wheels, broken bodykits, aftermarket Ecus, worn steering wheels.

Within two weeks they come outta a paint shop and have had the stock parts/trims/wheels wand waved at them and you get a Unmolested fresh low kilometer looking import which so many people get sucked into.

This can happen to an extent in japan even.

Ohh and to all the people jumping up and around about jokes - I find it funny certain people can get away with giving people shit or making a joke at there expense but its not frowned apon - and these "certain" people are meant to be the faces and executives of the club that should be promoting new users for the benifit and the expansion of the club - THAT is a joke. You can and I joke around on NS.com - but then again - they arnt asking any money for to be a part of them because its not a proper "club."

Then people like whysky jump on his back saying you dont pull little tantrums with paying members.

he called a vic club executive a "f*kin smartass and a clown", for an extremly minor joke..... this site has been a wealth of knowledge and support for my car modifications. Occasionally you get a joke directed at you, but I know I wouldnt go walking into work, get a joke from the manager saying nice tie and call him a f*kin smartass...

perhaps instead of having a long shot of finding a member, you could get the papers when it was bought, see if they have the name of the previous owner... look it up on white pages.... or as other people have said, get some pictures of the engine bay...

the final thing is though, how can you make a large purchase such as buying a car without knowing the modifications done to it? fine if jap importers cut and paste bits of stock panels and paint over the car will go back to stock, but this guy is saying there was a previous owner, not a workshop. maybe we arent the only clowns.....

You don't have to be a paid up member of SAUVIC to take the piss Kym, most people will have a laugh and not get worked up about a comment that has been said on the interwebs.

oh boy. you need a double layer of cotton wool...

We dont conduct ourselves in a certian way so we can ask for money. We are a car club, not the babysitters club. if you post up something and you get flamed it probably means you posted up garbage. BTW i speak for myself. also, im not a part of the normal committee.

Noone condones giving people shit or making jokes at people expence. if you have a legit complaint then make it.

The use the Emotional Icons might help prevent future conflict.

You can't exactly see "Sarcasem" in a sentence or the Thread Starter my not see it as a joke...

Or they cannot exactly see the look on your face to know wether your joking or not... Were all just ppl behind a screen...

Thought i may as well add to the hype..

Car has run a consistent 12.4 to 12.6 on street tyres, I get 360km out of a tank of BP Ultimate (city driving) and 400+ on hwy driving.

Ecu was tuned by Protek, and was pulling 240kw on 17psi - overall the tune was very safe, this turbo can be pushed to 21psi... go figure. 140,000km is what's on the clock, but new engine was reported to have done 90,000 (has had full service already).

The whole car is engineered

i bought a car off and importer with all this stuff and i found what my mods were on this forum and takeing pics and showing them here , but usually when they import a car that moded they return car back to stock and leave things like exhaust and gauges dunno about ecus , but car dealers usually put them back to fully stock and it would be easy to sell it from there point of view, but im just saying from what i know i could be wrong, and please take a joke you gotta expect it here as i did
