  1. Is this thing finished yet? I would like to build a car soon ....and by that I mean you need to build me a car [emoji23] At least update this thread Dave!

  4. Any idea on what sort of 2.8 kit is in the motor??

  6. ^^^ lol Nick.... twas a priceless moment!! PM's replied. Two people coming to look at it tomorrow...fingers crossed!!!
  7. I would rather not separate at this stage.. unless anyone else needs the other light? Your other light has the Chrome inserts I take it?? Make me a decent offer for both and you might just get em a bit cheaper Postage is $15 as I use fastway through work
  8. Not comparing.. but the power delivery is alot different is what I meant... at the end of the day the HP difference between the two is what around 100HP depending upon what rear housing is used? My lil old GT35R made 350rwkw before the cat and exhaust limitations were reached. Turbo may have had more in it, but Il never know. The T04Z was sitting there so I decided to change over. They are alot better (few secs each track thus far), but we have changed the suspension setup and a couple of other things at the same time, so I can't compare based on just the turbo swap . Although I am losing alot less boost between gear changes with the T04Z than with the GT35R... everyone that has driven the car in both forms has commented on how noticeable the difference is.
  9. Have you tried SSS at Girraween????
  10. hmmm if its December I am definitely transferring some money tomorrow!!
  11. Dave aka T04GTR just said don't be weak, go for the BW Here is a photo of his BW on his GTR (trial fitting, on old car)... its S372R... purchased from Bullseye in the states... its the equivalent of HKS modifying Garrett turbos.. Bullseye do the same with BW's P.S got rid of my GT35 (0.63 rear) for a T04z.. best decision ever!!
  12. Hmmmmmmm I miss my 200ZR.... but this is similar!!! Any pics? Location?
  13. No headlights..and the REO is fubar'd.. Yup both sold sorry... Dave is currently stripping the entire car and a new thread will be up shortly with the parts remaining. Cheers Anna

  16. ^^^^ lol at Rio!! Buy mine and tell the GF she gets to pick the daily Eurotrash is expensive for spares even with a trade card !!
  17. Actually my other half is head mechanic for a race team.. not a solicitor.. He was the one that lost his license for 3 years.. so yes I sat through many court dates listening to many others get heard prior to his. It was a 9 month process and he plead guilty as advised by his lawyer. However he was given a court appearance slip so the situation is different as he did not elect to take his to court. He has lost his license once previously, but due to the RTA and police stuffing up his record, yes have the proof but made no difference to the magistrate (thats another long story). He hadn't been booked for 4 years prior to this incident.... by no means is his driving record good, but it spands 10 years (last four are clean) and the majority of demerit point losses were silly young driver type offences such as neg driving (accidents and burnouts etc) My friend on the coast, lost his for the 18 months... as his charge was the same as my other half I went for support obviously and to see how bad his sentence was going to be knowing that the central coast magistrate was going to be more lenient than the Hornsby magistrate - wide known fact.. go to Hornsby for a traffic offence and you are likely to be raped over the coals. Most good traffic lawyers try to have the hearings moved from this location to another court. So yes, I know both personally, I have seen both driving records side by side ( the younger having one more loss of license than my other half due to being on P plates and less points), and sat through many of the court appearances relating to both people. And heard many unlucky others in the process. Some people did come off better, but the majority didn't, ending with either a longer suspension and reduced fine or a higher fine and the same suspension. I am not a cop (feel free to ask around), but my uncle was head of a highway patrol section till he retired a few years ago.. so I do have some insight. I have a family member that is a lawyer (although not specialising in traffic) and an ex that was also. I am not saying learn your lesson or anything, it's not my place and I have done exactly what you have been caught for as has probably every other person on these forums. I was just trying to convey that alot of the time fighting it is pointless unless there is solid no question proof that they shouldn't of booked you. Nor is trying to get out of the suspension a bad thing, Im sure everyone that loses their license looks for a way out.. a technicality is a technicality and if there is one there then USE IT!!! If you think that there is no way that they have it on video (no idea as I haven't seen the inside of a HWP car in a few years) then challenge it especially if you can recall other cars coming up behind you rapidly... and you are certain that they have the speed wrong. Their proof at the moment seems to be the fact that they showed you the reading of the speed detected. If you acknowledged that this was the speed you were travelling to the officer at the time then it will be in the fact statement and brief of evidence - but I am assuming that you didn't based on the fact that you want to fight it. Write down all your facts that you remember, go and see a traffic lawyer and make a decision from there. Everyone will tell you their experience, but at the end of the day everyones is different. Hopefully you fight it, win and come back and share the good news
  18. This is why you should always take a photo at the time it happens! How long ago was the incident?? If it was quite a while ago then you can argue the damage repaired was not due to your incident... you would need to investigate more in relation to the time frame between the incident and when the person had the car assessed. In hind sight.... the insurance company has deemed you at fault... Is this the case? Perhaps it's worth investigating whether you are liable at all for this damage. .. Who knows what the other person has told their insurer!!!
  19. We have bolted these S3 seats into an r32 4 door! They should have the same rails and bolt directly in!! Perhaps the rails are not the originals????
  20. ... it always happens... you buy something then usually a few weeks later something else comes up that you would of bought instead! Yes definitely able to be registered elsewhere.. I have half engineered the car, but never got round to finishing it off as I didn't know when I was going to stop adding stuff to the car! Well the engine anyways! Probably should finish it off, its on my list of things to do.... But I will have to say bye to the screamer
  21. Thanks for all the kind comments guys I guess I have let lots of people drive it over the years and at various parts of the build!! Its cheap for the money spent but at the end of the day in this market it is still just a Gtst... Besides the next project will get under way nicely with $22K!!! Or roundabouts !! Tom... it is newer than a R34 ... most of the parts on the car are less than 3 years old.. and the engine is only 15 months/30,000km old Doof, I will add you to the list of people sniffing around like vultures Taking some more photos tomorrow as I have been a bit slack... will post em up tomorrow night...
  22. Yup that would be me hehe at underbelly... would of been an interesting angle passing under my car!! I thought it would be pretty much cactus, it fell off mid corner so it probably went off the side of the road
