Good luck getting that translated

Its really weird. Apparently alot of the auctioneers don't write japanese, they put all their comments in english (or their idea of english) and they actually write in down on the paper with japanese letters. .. So its hard even for japanese speaking people to read..

Not to mention the scribble that is your auction sheet.. They should definately make bigger spaces for comments - considering alot of these cars are highly modified

:headspin:

well there is a few things you can tell about it without needing to read japanese. firstly, it's an accident grade car. secondly it's a 1989 model. body doesn't look too bad. some pin dents and something up with passenger side window, some sratches and possibly indicating some accident repair (not really sure). your buyer should be able to have this interpreted for you.

I can read most of it - it's definitely in japanese, LOL - the core problems with auction sheets are:

1. handwriting tends to be atrocious

2. kanji is small (often this partly to do with the size of the scan) - makes it hard to differentiate

3. they write in a 'code' - a kind of shorthand - people in 'the know' will understand it - but if you don't know the lingo/abbreviations - it can be guesswork only

If no-one transaltes it soon, I'll tell you what I can

(blacky - if you are reading this - I haven't forgotten about you, I just haven't had the time/opportunity to pass on your sheet)

Thanks for your input! =)

The details for this Auction sheet:

R33 N1 turbos

Mines modified ECU

OS twin plate clutch

Mines direct shifter

N1 headlights

Pivot tension rods

Nismo speedo

Adjustable suspension

N1 brake rotors

HKS exhaust (with front pipe)

Mines strut brace

Apexi air filter

Brake master cylinder stopper

Can the mines ecu be tuned in australia?...... And how does it compare to others like the Apexi PFC or E-manage?

:flamed:

bet he's stoked now, N1 turbos... :cheers:

Yeah i'm reading DaiOni, and thats cool, whenever u get round to it is ok. I've had a few people have a stab at it now including J exchange students and they all think its hard to read. But they all manage to get "Rigid Spacer"! .

here's part 1, I'll try to squeeze in a bit more later:

89 bnr32 GTR, gunmetal grey

* 65,710km. Km are listed as 'unclear' as the car has a nismo speedometer

* r33 rb26dett

*n1 turbos

* frontpipe (downpipe, or whatever you want to call it)

* cat-back exhaust

* mines cpu

* OS twin plate clutch

* mines 'direct shift' (??)

* rollbar

* n1 rotors

* boost meter

* lots of little scratches, including stonechip(s), and scratched rims

* there is a bit that looks like 'no factory parts' - but it's under the bit about the nismo dash (hard to tell if they are connected) - so it may be saying 'has a replacement speedo, and no original speedo' (so - can't verify kms)

I'll need to get my magnifying glass out for the rest, :)

okay, part II...

* I can't deceipher the first 'sales point' - first kanji is 'car', second appears to be 'high', I think the last is chou - which can mean condition/style. It's a total guess, but I think the inference is that this is a 'high-level car' (probably a reference to the degree of modification)

* has 17" rims

* has a 'takuu' bar (?)

* from my translation, it says "The owner has done a lot of modifications to this car, to confirm everything (on the car) come and look at it". I think, it suggests that there may be a lot more mods to the car

* pillow-ball tension rods

* oil catch can

* there's something about lock-nuts and a spare key - but not sure what (I would hope it says that they come with the car...)

* seat(s?) are worn/damaged

* the floor of the boot has been repaired

* the car has had repairs done, including dent repairs ('dent' is a very cool kanji - you learn something every day!)

* there are scratches and dents on the underbody (I'd assume there probably is surface rust too - but that is not listed)

* rear 'spo' (I'm guessing that is an abbrev. form of 'spoiler'...) has a scratch

    • @Ozdavroz Not going to get a better deal than that. Cash up front and ongoing payments. 🤑
    • I wouldn't even move it like gTSBoy is saying. I'd seriously do what Duncan is saying. Unplug the injectors, and unplug the fuel pump.  Pull the spark plugs out. Have a look in quickly with a bore scope if you want. At most, you can't spray a bit of oil into the bores so there is lubricant in there while you crank it. (Don't fill it, as it's only going to enter the exhaust, or spit at you out the spark plugs holes. Before cranking the engine on the starter, after a 5 year sit I'd probably prime the oil system manually. Easiest way to do so is to look at buying an oil filter relocation block, fit it to the engine. The pressure line going into the engine on this block you can then shove into some sort of oil pump, or put it into a bottle, with that hose going to the bottom. Fill bottle up with oil. Now seal the bottle and add a compressed air line to the top of the bottle. Feed compressed air in, about 20psi will be PLENTY. This will pump oil through the motor. Be aware, it also means it will drain back to the sump, so make sure you don't end up over filling the motor Now bolt the old oil setup back on (or fully install the remote filter system).   This way you've at least pushed fresh oil everywhere, then you're letting the motor crank to then do its own oiling. Then I'd tap the key to make sure it can start to crank, if the motor free bumps, then I'd just hit the key and let it crank. After letting it crank and seeing you can get real engine oil pressure, put new spark plugs in, reconnect the fuel system electrics, and send it.   Additionally, you can look to remove the fuel feed line to the rail, and divert it to a tank so you can get the bottom of the tank shit out, and just incase there's some crud sitting anywhere that gets passed the fuel filter (or is already ahead of it).   If fuel injection at the injectors ends up appearing to be a problem, you can dump the injectors into an ultrasonic cleaner for a quick flush clean out. Note this isn't as good as new injectors, or getting them pro cleaned and flowed    
    • All I can say is, that's still bloody awesome! No plans on caging it I'm guessing?
    • It seems you'd like your Skyline to go to a great home, that can keep it as a beautiful museum piece.  I feel I can provide the perfect place for it, however, I'm not sure I can justify so much money for a Skyline that has only been crashed 3 times. Due to this and market prices, would you be against me buying it for $100.00, with $60 to be paid upfront, and the remaining $40 to be paid annually in equal payments?  
    • I did say no low balling (Insert copy and paste article from Motor mag with complete history of R32 GTR development and racing history here)
