Trackgt Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Each to there own. Its obviously rare for a reason. No one chose that colour scheme from new because it looks awful haha. Especially when the mk1 comes in much nicer colours ie blue grey and burgundy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
starletezy Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Can spot some rare extras inside would be a good buy for someone who would want to restore it Quote Link to post Share on other sites

starletezy Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Very curious to see how much this goes for Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 It sold to one of the guys that runs 7tune so for now is staying in japan, Dont know what was paid though but has trd or toms shocks and springs, trd bucket seat larger I/Cooler, toms wheels obviously and i think some other bits. I quite like it, would be a fun little whip Quote Link to post Share on other sites
starletezy Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 It had potential the guys at 7tune probably have something in mind for it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Think its going to be a bit of a track toy. I hope they dont run it into the ground as that would be a shame for such a hard to come by colour combo Quote Link to post Share on other sites

StuDoc 72 Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Few people look at these sorts of cars with starlet tinted specs me thinks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mart1 Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Don't know how that car went through as a grade 4 when the paint work looking very faded from the pic of it on Facebook. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
starletezy Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Didn't look like it was in the best of conditions to be honest Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Thought modded cars went down as grade R or something? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
starletezy Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Grade R or RA is accident damaged cars mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mart1 Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 (edited) This is from JDM AuctionA GUIDE TO BODYWORKOn most auction sheets you will see some of the following marks on the outline of the cars body here is what they mean:A: Is a scratch with A1 being a very light scratch, which usually means a light graze that will polish out. A3 will mean a bad scratch that needs paint, some auction use up to A4 either way on any Japanese auction sheet the higher the number the worse the damage.U: Is a dent. A car may have many U1s which are pin dents that may be very small or unrecognisable U3 will be a proper Knee sized DentW: Wavy means showing signs of previous repair W1 means a qualified inspector could identify a good repair. W2 is a repair that is visible W3 is a bad repair that will probably need to be redone.X: Panel is damaged beyond repair and needs replacementXX: Panel has been replaced.Y: This means damage to front or rear lights. Y1 can mean a small chip in Headlight glass, Y3 will mean you can put your hand through the hole to replace the bulb.C/S: You shouldnt see this much because you are not looking to import rust we have enough of that here already! but depending on the auction company C1-C2 or S1-S2 will mean light rust-heavy rust.X/G: this will mean a chip on the windscreen or worse if any numbers are present. Some auctions use Kanji to show windscreen marks but any marks pointing to the screen mean chips or cracks.The Auction Grade is a representation of the cars overall condition not just the bodywork. It is meant to give an indication of how much money will require spending on a car to make it trade sale able, so if you are looking at a car that appears mint but only gets a grade 3 it may have a mechanical issue and will need further inspection.The auction grades can run from 2 to 6. However 5 to 3 is the standard in most auctions. The auction grade is also dependent on age and mileage for example it is very rare for a fifteen year old car to be grade 4, and in this instance you can consider the car to be exceptional for its year, similarly a one year old car shouldnt be grade 3.5 unless it has had a hard life.GRADING SYSTEMGrade 6 or S: This should be a brand new car but some auction companies allow ex demos with 2000 kms on the clocks into this category either way it should be plastic on the seats fresh.Grade 5: As new conditionGrade 4.5: Very lightly used conditionGrade 4: Used condition with only the lightest of blemishesGrade 3.5: Good condition with more noticible blemishesGrade 3: Average condition marks and possible light damageGrade 2: Poor condition may have accident damage or corrosionGrade R or Ra: In newer cars it can mean accident car thats been repaired, or heavily modifed vehicle. In older cars it can simply mean replacement panels, aftermarket kits, wings etc. Edited April 22, 2016 by mart1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

daniel_g Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Seen a lot of modified cars down as R so that would tie in with bits off fucked fiberglass etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
