Help! Buying an R33 today, but have concerns

[B's R33 GTS25T]

Hi everyone. I was wondering if you could help me. I am buying a 95 GST25T this afternoon, but on the test drive yesterday afternoon, the factory boost guage was reading appropx 3-4, not to the +7 on the guage. I'm not sure whether the standard cars should be running at least up to the +7, or some say off the gauge. Any ideas? I have had the car checked out by state roads and they didn't say anything in their report about problems with the turbo.

I would apprecaite your feedback, as I don't want to buy and find problems.

Hey mate

Nothing to worry about

The Stock Boost guage reads in MMHG wich is not like PSI or BAR

3-4MMHG Is perfect for STD boost level (apx 6-7PSI or about .5bar)

You have nothing at all to worry about

Take it easy

same as above.....stock boost guage does not read in bars.

Yeah, same as above: gauge reads in 100mmHg increments up to 700. Given 760mmHg is about 1 bar (or 14.7 psi), half scale deflection (300-400mmHg) is about 7 psi which is wgat it should be.
