You Have probably already thought of this but if you don't get a real good price here perhaps also try selling it in auto trader and unique cars magazines...i always see HEAPS of plates in there!

Good luck R34 i hope you get a nice price for em!:uh-huh:

To answer some questions on my thread in the for sale section.

Yes Micko and Rod I've sold the 34.

I advertised it in the Sunday times for 4 weeks and got no calls for her at all until last week. I'd decided that I was meant to keep her.

The guy came around after looking at one at a dealer for the same price I was asking ($42k) mine had done 20,000kms less and had gear on it that would cost nearly $20,000 to replace......no contest really.

We had around $70k tied up in two cars when we only used one at a time which in the end seemed silly. We decided to sell both cars and get one to do both jobs i.e practical (sort of) and fun to play with too hence we pick up the new car on Tuesday.............................R34 the traitor runs and hides

Sorry Micko please forgive me I have sinned.

Was going to ring you today but was still in mourning.

It's not an STI just a poverty pack rex.

The manuals have a nice light clutch and the auto version is woeful. So we got a manual. Any mods will have to be minor as I can't fit a heavy clutch because of my crook foot. So far so good plus Tennille has offered to drive it for me.

Next MC day she gets to drive the rex so no excuses for her now:)

Hmmm...well if we are to continue as friends I will be forced to review my opinion of WRX's:uh-huh:

I must admit that the first thing that I noticed with the MY01 onwards was how light the clutch felt so I hope that a manual doesn't cause you any grief mate.

You have to bring the car around to show it off.

      I was more thinking so it doesn't flop around as much rather than for rotating it. Once you have the balance right, it should rotate well enough, depending on how much resistance there is on the pivot. I think you said the pivot point was on a bearing though didn't you?

      You can get them with the worm drive rotator but I was too tight to pay another $250-$300 so manual labour it is! I don't think it will be too hard to rotate though.

      Sag as in the windows start to slowly open themselves, or they're just slow to go up/down with engine off?

      It looks like it needs a big worm gear drive on it to control the rotating, not a few sloppy pins!

      R32gtr sputtering and stalling

      As Duncan said, first there was OBD, which few cars used, then came OBD2.   Now an interesting point, OBD2 isn't even for what you want to do. OBD2 is for emissions testing. There is some sensor data on OBD2, but it's up to the manufacturer what they're putting on it. Most scan tools operate on UDS, which like OBD2 is a standard built on-top of CAN. UDS specifies how to structure a message, what very limited things mean such as "read memory address" but it does not specify what is stored in which memory address, that is all up to the manufacturer. You either a scan tool compatible with that vehicle, or to know how to reverse engineer all the data, which can take a VERY long time and a lot of vehicles to get it right. Oh and then the manufacturer does a firmware update and changes what's where... Ask me how I know that as fact Oh, and by the time you've got the scan tool that supports all the manufacturers stuff, well, you're back at "But a consult cable and the Nissan software" The main difference being most manufacturers software these days works with the same hardware readers, as the readers are built to support J2534 which is another standard for how the PC communicates with the tool to make it do specific things on the car...
