  1. i am not sure what brand it is but i am told it is based on the sard unit.it cost two hundred and something , cannot remember exactly how much. it is mounted on to the factory mount bov fitting. i am hoping for the best of both worlds because i have one plumb back and one atmo..... sounds good in theory. it makes sort of a chuff sound. not really lairy enough for me although it does sound classy and understated. anyone interested is welcome to have a look first before committing. like i said it is fitted straight on to the factory mount on the factory intercooler gtr piping so fitting should not be a prob on to a r33 gtst as i was told that the factory gtr r32 blow off valve is the same as the gtst r33 bov. correct me if i am wrong. kermit
  2. is anyone out there interested in swapping their annoying noisy blow off valve for a quieter external blow off valve. i have a blow off valve on the gtr but i want more noise and the missus wont let me buy another one while i have one already. any one want to swap? kermit
  3. hey guys. the interior on my R32 GTR ( suede one) is pretty grubby and i am not sure what to use so ii dont shag up the suede. mum always said not to get it wet so i am not sure the best way to bring it back to life. any reccommendations or advice ? thank you. kermit

  7. hey guys. iam looking for a ' abs main control unit ' for a R32 GTR . must be in very good condition. and also i am chasing 2 air conditioning compressors for the same model. i am based in perth and if price and condition are good then would pay by C.O.D. thanks. mark
  8. hey guys. i went through danny at import 101 and chose and paid for my GTR in mid november. car was due to go on next available boat in a shared container from Osaka.the boat left late and the car arrived on the 16 dec. i see a common theme appearing here. if you want your car here as soon as possible then talk to danny at import 101. if not then try someone else. cheers. kermit
  9. not being tight but was wondering how much moola the membership will cost . thanks kermit
  10. love 101's. another happy GTR customer. what few niggles there were , were dealt with quickly and professionally. highly recommended. if anyone see's a debadged R32 GTR in gun metal grey with fat as rims , give us a wave. cheers kermit
  11. hey guys. regarding my R32 GTR that i have imported i am wondering who is the best for quality used parts in perth. My GTR is leaking from the main ABS thingy( technical term). sorry not an idiot but i cannot remember the actual name. ABS control centre? anyway the place who are working on the car have been told that the part is not servicable and can only be replaced. I suggested 'C red' as a place to find a replacement part but the guy working on the car said he had his own guys he dealt with. has anyone had to replace this part? Main control unit? maybe? i am just worried how much this is going to cost and where i can find this part although i would have thought that anyone who has a GTR front cut would have one of these and i cannot imagine why they would need this part. thanks guys , any help would be appreciated. just want to get me GTR on the road as soon as possible mainly because it lokks like i have sold my other car. Found a buyer before i knew about ABS problem. thanks again kermit
  12. thanks for that. i am not sure where it is leaking yet as the shop didnt say but as long as it doesnt cost the earth to fix i should be alright. cheers. kermit
  13. hey guys. i am waiting for R32 GTR to be complied and i have now been told that my abs unit is leaking brake fluid. how bad is this? have any others on this forum had a similar problem? i am really worried about how much this will cost to fix. as for the rest of the car i am told it has OHLINS adjustables and nismo sway bars and strut braces which i didnt know about so i cannot complain too much. if only the shop would hurry up i will be alright. cheers kermit
  14. imports 101 are a compliance centre who are now importing. they are currently complying my GTR for me. they are based in welshpool on Radium st and the sign out front is Global Motorworks. give them a call and they can also email you a copy of what needs to be done to your car when he gives a price. mark
  15. [yep , i had been worried when i first saw this but inspections so far indicate that any frontal damage was minor and nothing major was damaged. As with the rear as well at the moment. it all looks straight inside the boot and behind the bumper so i am hopeful. it appears that any damage was cosmetic and minor and where the " SKYLINE" indentation was removed looks to a case of minor repair or simply trying to enhance the rear end. i am not sure if the car has been repainted but it looks factory to me and a panel beater who checked the car over agree's that its all straight and the same colour so if its a respray they did one hell of a good job. Obviously the front and rear have been repainted but the entire car is perfect other than a small chip on the rear spoiler. so either it has had a fair amount of money spent on it or was simply well cared for and although i could be wrong i wouldnt expect a patch up job to include a full high quality respray with upgraded parts when it would be easier to strip and sell the car. so far extras include adjustable coilovers, Battle club exhaust ( anyone heard of it?) , nismo strut braces, after market italian sounding alloys( 17's) and an M Sports drift wheel and a chip ( thought to be a Blitz chip) and a nismo front spoiler thingy in the big hole in the spoiler.( cant remember what its called). So , fingers crossed that all appears to be as it should and i should be one happy bunny. kermit Have you had the car looked at for chassis damage? You say you are sure the front was involved in a prang as it has a new bar, cooler and radiator. You then say the rear has custom body work. Have you ever thought the custom body work was performed as the rear has been in a bingle as well? If not at the same time as the front in a major accident? I sincerely hope it hasnt and hope you did get a great deal but it would be wise to get it checked out nonetheless.
  16. hey guys. i am new to this forum and would like to say allo. saw my gtr for the first time a few days ago and was blown away by the condition of it. i was told of scratches through the paint but all i found was a minor scuff. i was told of a mark in the interior and me and the missus both found nothing. the interior is a little dusty but the trim is mint, nothing is missing either. the front has had a minor accident as the front bumper is now a vspec item and the intercooler and radiator are spotless. the paint and bodywork are almost perfect. the only problem is that the tyres are shagged but i was going to replace these anyway and there is a minor brake seal leak. this was a car with limited info as the someone else bought it 4 months previous at an auction and then lost his lisence and got in trouble with the police so did not want the car. apparently he got lucky at the auction and bought it at the reserve price which was low anyway. the car was then advertised for sale at the same price but was turned down by heaps of people because all that was shown was 2 photos and the price. people thought it was too cheap.... my wife talked me into taking the gamble on it as i too thought it was too cheap. it even has some custom bodywork at the rear end. the badges have been removed from the rear and the skyline indentation between the rear tail lights has also been deleted. it looks soo fat. iam based in WA and am lookin forward to cruisin in the future with some of you guys kermit
