Firstly selamat hari raya to all...

Here is the old car that I bought the day before raya, an old hari raya car for an old man.

I have had a very longstanding dilemma: Buy an already tuned car for big money but that could go wrong at any time, or buy a cheap standard car and build it up to my specs with a guarantee.

So my solution, buy a cheap already tuned car with lots of good parts! LOL! It will probably go straight to Gt-auto when it arrives in Msia. I want a rb30.

I was seriously expecting a very grubby car because this car was CHEAP! Cheaper than a standard r32 gtr here by 1000-2000 pounds!

But when I saw it, it's quite amazing. The owner imported from Japan in 2007, has only covered 800 miles in 2 years - proven by the MOT testing certs (like Puspakom).

Hardly any rust at all.

He took me out for a drive, no creaks !!! Very smooth driving, the exhaust is perfect not too loud but sounds sweet inside.

I'm not 100% sure of the turbos but they did surely behave like 2540s, quite laggy but once it's on boost, the world became BLURRY !!! Suspension is a bit too hard though, need to adjust it.

When I test drove, it was awesome. The clutch was really good! Much better than the triple plate in my ex-R33 5 years ago. Apparently this is a OS 2 plate, felt very soft and nice. But not 100% sure.

I then drove the car 90 miles home, after 12 hours of no food or drink (puasa maaaa).... NOT VERY TIRED AT ALL - very well behaved and reflects a good car I think.
