A few things.

 

1. How the hell you meant to see the dials on the passenger side.

2. Its 3.1 Litre.

 

But if you look at the dash the turbo gauge is on there. Could have put a TT dash in there though.

If those power figures are correct and its running well it seems like a bargain!

A/C, P/S, P/W, leather seat,

600-650hp, 0-400m(11.5second), 3100cc up displacement, NISMO turbo,Aftermarket parts (intercooler,muffler,computer,suspension,etc)available,@68200km and 91700km engine overhole,

 

All for less than 5 Grand!!

 

Oh, notice the battery has been relocated and some sort of container taking its place(swirlpot,catchcan??).

It's a monster for the price - of course it could have been recently blown up, hence the price.. :)

 

Somehow if I was driving that flat out, I don't think I'd be looking at the guages on the pass side either.. But there are so few places to put guages in these cars - I was thinking of that location myself, except I seem to remember a dirty great metal tube about there behind the dash, not sure how they got around that one..

 

I noticed the catchcan thing too Trey - and a) wondered where the battery has gone, and b) wondered what it catches.. PCV replacement maybe? Couldn't see where the big pipes off it went to though.

 

Dirty great FMIC on the car too..

 

Still, if I had 5k spare, I know what my xmas present to myself would be!

Its also got HKS coilover suspention by the looks of it. Thats over £1,000 on its own

Oh mama lol, i know what i want :D

 

Guages are pretty pointless while your driving anyways, I somehow think they are there for setup reasons more than anything else.

 

And Stuart you point out its 3.1 litre? so whats wrong with that>?

Yeah and so>?

Its a very quick car and, well that might not have been the case? They could have done it out on purpose.

Thats very cheap for that quoted figure whichever way you look at it.

 

But youd end up spending a fortune running it.

Careful of those guages on the 'A' Pillar! They could have someones eye out!

 

Are those shox HKS? Theres a great big Ohlins sticker in the engine bay.

 

Would be nice to hear it before buying it in case it sounds like dried peas in a coacoa tin!:D

 

Would want to take it for a LOOOOOOONG test drive before buying! (Like maybe two weeks in Wales/Scotland for evaluation?)

 

Would obviously be faster if was Silver though......

Well I know you blow up engines for a living, but there won't be many people with enough spare cash to go one ot two size overbore pistons just for the hell of it. For that extra few cc it's just not worth it. Nope, my guess is that's it's gone bang big style and a major rebuild was called for. Anyway, it doesn't matter if it's done right. (how many rebuilds have you had now ? LOL :D)

I think they are. I saw a picture a few days ago of them and they look like that. Not seen purple suspention anywhere else.

Well i disagree.

Stroker kits are around a plenty, and that will take it out to 3.1 -3.2 litre. And when you say not many people? How do you know?

Tuning in Japan, seems to be far more affordable then over here.

 

As for me and rebuilds lol.

Well lets see now.

1 rebuild - then another 1 to fix the one that was ****ed up the first time :D:D So 1 done on purpose.

 

Oh and one Turbo failure of course lol.

And then, well there was that other time :D:D:D
