  1. Does the car have rego? and how negotiable are you in this price? Basically me and the BF are on a set budget and there is only so far we can go past it till we cant afford it. I ask because to avoid wasting your time and ours, coz we live in Sydney and it would be a big run around trying to buy a car interstate.

    pm me ;)

    :P:D

  2. I think it's a good idea. At my house the garage is pretty much taken up by my dad's, mum's and bro's cars, so my car has no choice but to sit out in the front yard under the electricity wire where birds sit and shit on everything underneath it (should see some of the shit that comes out of these birds). Anyway, too save money and pain invest in one coz leaves and dust is not as bad a bird shit.

    Prices do vary for em, but there are ones that have a special material that let the car breathe on hotter days etc so u dont get too much condensation inside the cover. I guess it's really dependant on how much u wanna spend.

    :P:D

  3. cheers dude, black colour code and model spec,

    GGKBRTFR33VDA----A

    time to find out what that means

    more and more searching... sorted

    sweet

    so that says its a 3325t rwd and thats pretty much it, cool

    so it matches what i've been told, 97 model, black, awsome the body is in good nick, so just wait on the inspection tomorow and see whats what

    then buy me a line and enjoy.... thats gona be one helova drive home

    hehehe

    then a few days off to swap some bits and put in my stereo, complete the exhuast and install the alarm

  4. Well we've decided to go with an inspection, from another place that's cheaper than NRMA. Full vehicle inspection so body,interior and mechanical and only gonna cost us $189 rather than $400 that NRMA quoted us plus they drive out to the car. Hopefully doesnt come back with anything huge, we not expecting perfect condition considering it is a used car, just good enough where it wont cost us an arm, leg and a kidney to repair. Atleast we have another seller with another car that round about the same price to fall back on, just

    incase :(

    *crosses finger* for tomorrow's inspection!

    :(:(

  5. Would it be cheaper to just get a mechanic to look at it? Like maybe bring the car to the closest mechanic, or does it have to be a performance mechanic? Anyone know of a good one in the CBD (Sydney CBD :D)? I'm looking at CBD coz the BF starts early and finishes late so by the time he gets out all the tradies would have gone home, so looking at something that can be done during a lunch break. Basically just mainly need the oil pressure problem checked coz its the most worrying part other than that the rest of the car seems ok. How long does a mechanic inspection take?

    BTW :( for all the replies so far :D

    :(:(

  6. i ould post the f**king threads i've searched... essentially the answers to the specific questions i have asked wornt covered... if you have a link or a f**king answer cheers....else useless requests to search and find something would be f**king useless aye?

    do i have to state in every single post that A, have search found nothing?

    shit i didnt even hold to thses forums, i searched a few other forums and even googled it but specific to lines and problems i find to many posible answwers, hence the question in the other thread....

    what could i look for that could cuase this that would be naked to the eye if at all,

    re:

    james

    cheers mate,

    im talking pure white, like coloured smoke, white, no grey or blue or black, just pure white... still sounds like steam?

    thought it was myt login, sory hun eh ^^

    no descriptions of thie so far, back to googling the shit aye

    f**k it, check the black line on monday, else il go with ugly silver and a scatch on the door.

  7. big burts of power at hte top end of the rev range, think its leaning out @ top, which case, pinging is strong posiblity, i havent bought THAT car, just antoher posiblity as im looking

    ive got some stuff in mind but as im on allot of importers / dealers lists to buy at the moment if they get something in that somewhat fits what i want hte give me a call.. told him i wasnt interest straight up as he wants to much $$$ just hadnt seen pure white smoke before, it happens under load all the time, it is runninbg complete stock bar the intake pod and the exhuast tip, so yea, staying away

  8. i want get the nrma to check her out but I'm not sure how to work it out with the guy, like hey dude, lend me the car a few hours while i take it to get checked out?

    guess il say hey, come with to get it checked out?

    doubt he will, unless i give deposit, eh, guess il have to lay down some $$$ to check it out + the nrma price

    il have a look when she's cold monday

    il drop a line after

    if i buy il drop a line on the 2 other cars, so someone can take advantage of my other hard work on finding good prices

    IN SYDNEY :P

  9. okok, :P

    was trying to write up a post with the misses giving me the shits pushing me every 5 mins to get up so we could get going, she's an impatient bitch >_<

    this her login btw heh, mines gts-4 dreamer

    anyways point being

    i just wanted to know a bit about oil pressure norms for your lines...

    the rest was why... guess waste a time eh,

    and naa this aint melb an i aint posting for competition :P

    I've been looking for damed near a year now.... to godam long, finaly a decent price for a decent line... :P

    so if its reading 1/4 on the gauge.... this is a sign that ? (posibilities give me a direction, something to look for)

    low oil?

    leaks?

    happens when hot?

    ... seems logical that the pressure would go UP when its hot unless the fact that it flows better when its hotter unless that would reduce pressure? ... seems ilogical... am i way off or what?

    same ol... looking for advice

    cheers guyz

  10. been searching for a car for.... way to long now.....

    think i've found me a deal.... *evil maniacly obsessed bitch cackle*

    cars a series 2 33-25t, black with awsome white on black 33R wing, no rust > NOT EVEN surface rust under the doors or in the boot seals

    no scratches

    nuda

    otherwise all stock cept new cat and associated exhuast with great options including abs, no struts tho > spuen wnated the rear in it but eh

    the problems i noticed besides the ugly azzzz rims, meh no real problem

    the suspension was clunky and ruff as guts, it was lowered, the owner had no real clue about cars or he was succesfully playing dumb, he's owned for 3 months so no real issue so far (he imports as a side biZ) so yea im worried on hte playing dumb bit.

    so when asking is this aftermarket suspension he said... dunno, so how can i tell if its just shited stock or otherwise?

    every skyline i've ever seen has had coil overs :P

    i couldnt see any leaks but it was raining and he'd been out with it so... yea im going to look it over and take a spin monday, if its what im thinking an no red flags on revs + you guyz dont freak me... i think im buiying

    so other than that it was spooled by 1.5k on full by 3k,

    was a hot bitch before we got there, like they'd taken it for a run before id come out or another test flight?

    the biggest eye poper >_<

    she never went over 1/4 oil pressure, sat there contanst the entire time on 1/4

    every line ive been in sits on half

    so 1/4 happens when hot an its flowing like crazy or ??

    possible reason for low pressure ? leaks? f**k all oil ?

    associated problems i may not forsee other than the obvious parts you suggest as broken?

    basically for the price im thinking shes a "bargain" unless im n for serious $$$ like its 1 grand better than other cars i've been offered which are stock and cat backs with rims essentially the same but wrong colour

    found like 3 cars... but this one i like the most other than shit suspension and this question mark over hte oil pressure

  11. First question, seller claims boost leak via turbo gasket, claiming he'll change the gasket and therefore fix the leak. Will this actually fix the problem or just cover it up? Is the boost leak a bigger more costly problem making this car not worth buying? Any thoughts on this?
