hey all, havin worked at a import place and i hav bought a half cut myself , i can say look at the kms, mine had approx 67000kms on it,also,ensure that the engine is comp tested and look at results, anything above a average of bout 180psi is great,before you buy/take deliever of the half, get them to remove the rocker cover and check for sludge, 9 out of ten engine that come from japland are a touch sludgy,due to lack of servicing!! andd also the WITZL is also correct , most importers take bit off the half-cuts to sell and you still get slodged for the whole half, when it aint got a guard or a bonnent on it , etc you get the idea!, also check for shaft play in the turbo, cause if the half-cut aint got a turbo timer ya can bet ya balls that it aint been warmed down after driving, well peoples that my 2 cents any more info , ya know where to find me!
