Vehicle inspection over a s13 silvia
$150
West Lakes SA 5021, Australia
8th Jul 2026
Hi, I'm looking to organise a pre-purchase inspection on a 1991 Nissan Silvia S13 Q's. It's a factory manual, naturally aspirated (SR20DE), with approximately 175,000 km on the odometer. The seller has owned it for around 2 years and says he's a mechanic who has carried out all servicing and repairs himself, so there isn't much service history apart from an invoice for a replacement windscreen. The car is currently unregistered and needs to go through Regency. It was defected for coilovers and worn tyres, but it has since been returned to stock suspension and stock wheels in preparation for inspection. The seller states there are no oil or coolant leaks, no overheating history, and that the engine runs well with no smoke or unusual noises. It has an aftermarket aluminium radiator, twin thermo fans, aftermarket exhaust, S14 seats, S15 steering wheel, aftermarket speakers/head unit, and an OEM Silvia grille. Known issues include: Small rust spot under the passenger-side mirror. Cracked dashboard above the instrument cluster. Air conditioning is not currently installed (compressor included, but the system is incomplete). No documented service history apart from the windscreen replacement. I'd like the inspection to focus on: Structural rust (chassis rails, strut towers, sills, floor pans, battery tray, spare wheel well, and rear quarters). Signs of previous accident damage or repairs. Engine health (compression if possible, leaks, timing chain noise, cooling system). Gearbox, clutch, and differential condition. Suspension, steering, brakes, and bushes. Anything that may prevent it from passing Regency or require significant repairs.
Looked like he was in a rush, performed a regular pre-purchase look over and gave good feedback. However, didn’t pay attention to what I asked him to look over in the task description.

Pre-Purchase Car Inspection West Adelaide

Somerton Park SA 5044, Australia

Buying a second-hand car on CarSales and want a mechanic or revhead to come take a look with me. 2016 Subaru Outback, I'm keen on the car but just want a second opinion as it hasn't been serviced since September last year. Seller seems legit but hasn't got a RWC for it as not necessary in SA. Don't need a really official report, just wanna know if you'd buy it. Especially because I'm hoping to buy it tomorrow and drive it to Melbourne on Sunday.
Highly recommend! Daniel was kind, honest, and went above and beyond for me. Would definitely use him again and recommend to anyone. Thanks Daniel 👍🏼
