If the tacho isnt working is probably the Ignition Failure Sensor. Have a couple of these (new and 2nd hand).

Welcome to the club.
Rev cut is meant to be at around 8,200rpm.
Don't rev it past that.

Well
nice to hear of another Aero in the club, I believe Dwayne is the only other lucky one.
Sorry, can't help with your prob however.

Re: heey everyone this is my fto gp version R aero series
Looks pretty clean man. As mentioned above though, the front bar is far from a good fit, so I'd say its been pranged before.
And +1 on the destruction of those rims... Set fire to them & hurl them at the nearest Lebanese guy.
That aside, it looks good

The car has never been in a accident it has been checked from my panel beater, im the second owner since its been imported from Japan in 2007. Im looking to swap the rims ASAP and straighten the body if possible. Thats the only number plate that has been registered in Australia.

Re: heey everyone this is my fto gp version R aero series
Looks really neat, looks to be unmolested from the pics. From the misalignment of thebar I would say that it may have been in a minor accident, maybe a bumper to bumper ding which has misaligned the mounts. Probably nothing major, should be able to be sorted out by a panel beater.
+1 to all the rim hating though, they look terrible

Never seen an FTO with such a clean interior. Fix up the bumper and replace the rims and it will be an awesome ride.

Rims are horrible! wow, my eyes have never seen anything quite so... umm..

Re: heey everyone this is my fto gp version R aero series
If you put some nice lightweight rims on in their place, you'll probably experience a huge jump in power. Those chromies weigh a ton & as such the motor stuggles to get them spinningkhaled2c wrote:This car sounds like a dream.. especially hitting high RPMsyes i do understand the rims are disgusting i have to put up with it till i find something more suitable

Looks Like Ollie's FTO. Stickers are too old though. In pretty good condition. Need a new floor consle.
