EVOIV Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 Hi All, I've been looking at an R34 GTR that has supposedly done about 50,000kms. Is there a way to gauge from a car how many kms it's done? From the wear on the front seat? Anything else? What should it look like having done 50,000kms? I know it's a hard question, but thought I'd put it out there. I know these things are hard to tell. Cheers!

mad082 Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 no way at all to tell the genuine kms. a car could have done 200,000kms but was owned by someone who looked after it well, so it looks like it has only done the claimed kms. or you could have a car that has done 50,000kms, wasn't looked after that well and looks like it has done 200,000kms.

Tommy Kaira RL Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 You could check the timing belt to see if it was changed at 100k. Also check the screws around the dash to see if they have been removed good way of telling if dash has been out. Look for any stickers in door well sometimes have kms on them Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/343738-how-to-tell-genuine-kms/#findComment-5542168 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iron Chef Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 If it's freshly imported, ask for the de-reg paper. It's the only true way of knowing.
