Actually mechanicaly its pretty mint and all the electrics bar one back window function as they should
Its only done 140 odd kms and drives real nice so other than a service it will be left alone
I always intended to do a matte black spray job so paint cond is unimportant and Ive already removed,welded and treated 98% of the rust
Dont get me wrong its a POS ,but that was the point of the exercize,I can do whatever I want to it without the guilt of wreaking a nice car Smile

Twins arent that bad as there made to sound, i ran 1.3bar for 2yrs with no issues. Aslong as you leave them in sequential they make decent power.

Single is different kettle of fish altogether but id have the big single anyday over the twins.


boost sounds good, and 1.3 bar is plenty; i too like the big single. why selling the aristo project so cheap?

Off an independant glasier I found on Trade Me
Paid $355 inc delivered for a brand new screen and fitted it myself(this costs a bit more than you would think because to do it properly you need primer/activator and proper screen adhesive and aristos have a foam dam aswell)
Smith and Smith wanted over $1000 not including fitting and that was a trade price!

Hi All,
New aristo owner from the UK here, had my share of skylines and soarers but now grankids have appeared I need 4 doors.
I've imported a 1994 blue TT that finally arrived this week - the big bonus was finding a mines ecu under the carpet Very Happy
Going to be spending the weekend servicing etc so when the reg arrives next week I'm good to go.

Nice pickup Chaos looks to be super clean !

FireFox 1.3 bar no probs but what kills these turbos is heat, but with all cars sometimes you get lucky and others you dont. Mine went bloody hard and i couldnt be bothered on the EBC to press one button to alternate between high and low.

Wow uncanny looking to the silver one just posted but obviously alot better condition overall except paint on the roof is knackered ie: overzealous buffing / front bar will need respraying along with the bootlid.

Heres the pics:

















Reason for selling the project cheap as i'll never get round to finishing it off properly that the car deserves. Run / drives basically everything works just needs TLC with the paint.

Car has new balljoints and arms / timing belt / serpentine belt / tensioner from the previous owner far as im aware, basically its a stock car with a few minor extra's ie: pioneer deck and GATES cam gears.

Im wanting under 4k for the car as is with myself putting alot of spares ive lying round in the boot / car if needs be.

Otherwise the car will suffer the same fate as others i normally buy it'll end as a wrecked car for partout and its too good to suffer that fate.

PM me with any info. if you want a cheap project car to do up.
