ROFL

Thats the exact one Fliggy was after.... They had advertised it for $1000 on some other website (probably was carsales)

I reckon that ebay is a major blunder - they obviously meant $1000

8 months till i'll be in Japan :P
Sweet, Im starting to put 1k every month away from now on to go :)

8 Months away :O, my how time goes by. DAMN IT, i really wanted to go too, i seriously doubt I'll be going now since work has cut my hours down to 1-2 days a week :) , sure i love the time off, but i cant do anything fun now :( . Suppose i had better hop on the unemployment bandwagon and start searching for another job :( ...what to do :)

Yeah Shane, Martin and I were chatting about this the other week .... they said you basically need $5k for the 10-14 day trip they are running. Even makes it a bit of a stretch for me since I would need 2 weeks off work (unpaid since I am a contractor), which then effectively costs me $5k on top :(

BUT Nismo, Tomei, HKS, Tokyo Autosalon and every other cool garage under the sun .... drool.

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
