I looked at some treads (mostly old treads), the phone numbers given has either being changed or the shop don't exist anymore. ex.. crusing panel in Ingleston Rd or even one in new cleaveland road are not there any more.. ANyone know a place that would do a front bar re-spray (small dent) for a good price
-
dont know that much about the CIma.. but looks very nice... can you post some photos of the inside and what year?.. also how much there are going for..

ok, this is what i got in the end..Hyperdrive for 30 bucks on ebay... so i am well under by budget on this one. sort of happy with it for now, just added some homemade padding to the seat and its good to go endurance racing , seriously the normal seat is only good for like 10 minutes racing without serious ASS damage. WOuld love to see pic of your simulator mate, looks like the real deal.. PS - Have to say compared to GT5 (which is great too) GTR2 with Bathurst Mod / MMMV8 Supercar mod is preety good too.... but i find force feedback excellent on the GT5

My Importing Journey
maclarenf1 replied to hanyou's topic in Importing, Compliance, Modification Laws & Regulations
Dham 32 V-spec II for 22K is preety good deal....mate.. once you do get it in your hands.. give us detaisl about the condition of the interor, exterior and if it tally's with whats was said to you (Grading level ??..) -
after looking for sometime now, this is my list.. Financially viable ones that want break your bank, http://www.simworx.com.au/catalog/item/3694360/3313045.htm - Australia, still too expensive for average Joe like myself. http://www.gamerscockpit.com.au/cockpit_details - again very nice, i prefer the simworx but too expensive for me http://www.thegamingcollection.com.au/Pages/playseats.html - only place in australia place to buy the playseat, still too expensive for me. (does not pass the wife test mate !!!!!) http://www.hyperdrive.com.au/products.aspx?catid= - my choice, australian product, bare essestionls but cheap. Last option is to do it yourself - I am going halfway, buying hyperdrive for 184, using it for while and maybe adding proper race seat and getting driving position a bit higher.

Pictures Before It Leaves
maclarenf1 replied to CHO50N's topic in V Series (V35, V36, V37 & Infiniti)
thnking of eventually buying V35 4 door as a daily...what are you going to do about the stereo (stock) item..i know Jap ones do not have the entire FM band as the Aus sold radios, also any fix on Jap Satellite Navigation. i remember tread long time ago on SAU, and the guy could not find a way to convert them to Aussie MAPs..other than simply to use the screen as a monitor. keep us upto date with your details........... -
