I cant believe no one has snapped this up yet, unbeatable price especially with all the primo mods! Have you tried carsales? Just make sure you weed out tyre kickers/test pilots by requesting deposits
-
Will do mate,
il get the camera out this arvo.
-
Well its appears worse then i thought...
the general assesment from 2 independent quotes was new passenger door, paint the whole left hand side of car and even more disturbingly 1 week in a Suzuki Swift haha. Amazing how minor things can seem to the untrained eye.
-
Yes, you might be able to get a good dent remover to make it look perfect > then polish the scratches
Thats what im hoping for, not too keen on losing it for a week at a crash repairer though thankfully if i do need to go down that route my mates wife works for Eblen Subaru and they'll do a flawless job.

So i went to catch up with my mate down at the bay,
he has started his own practice so it was called for. Park my car along the esplanade where he lives as my car is unable to conquer the ridiculously steep driveway though my car is not slammed. Just had my baby washed on the weekend so everything is sparkling...including the nice dent some motherless f**k decided to put on the passenger side door. Looks like a kick, but so f**king annoying that my blemish free car is now tainted
I'll never know who or why, but in the off chance i do...enuf said!

Should cost around $50 - $75 at your local exhaust shop,
not a hard job so dont let them give you the reach around cos you have a GTR and "must" be loaded.
-
They are a f**king joke,
ring and complain to get 3mths free off your bill or shout at them to terminate your contract and go with telstra! Im with Optus who are supposedly the worst and have no issues what so ever.
-
Excellent,
thanks so much guys! The purchasing will now be so much easier
-
Yea we saw that HKS unit but were unsure if you also needed dump pipes. So im assuming no is the answer to that one? Also maybe i typed the wrong Kakimoto unit as the one we saw is single pipe not the ultra loud double system lol.
-
Probably not, if he does that then the whole exercise will most likely end up costing $5k.

Hey guys,
small favour for a good mate of mine who just purchased an R34 GTR and is looking to upgrade the exhaust. He has no interest/time in the forums (so he claims) pfft
Anyways, i made him settle for the Amuse R1 Titan catback cos it looks and sounds insane or even the Trust TI or Kakimoto Full Mega as a slightly cheaper option and also metalcat highflow.
Im a little unsure for the front section, im assuming it should be changed to keep the flow all nice and even as opposed to stock, but can anyone offer suggestions on front pipes/dump pipes? Links are not necessary but wouldnt hurt.
I used some JJR gear when i had the R33 few years back, quality was great and fitment was ok but i remember there being slight hissing sounds due to small leaks etc.
-
Finally sold the GTR last night. Will be off my hands next week. Just picked up a supercharged VT clubsport which is what I always wanted. I can't wait to take it out and make some fully hektic smoke at the rear wheels.
He's a witch, burn him at the stake rubble rubble rubble rubble

Yea dont take any risks,
book yourself in to get a nice alarm/immob installed ASAP. I went down to my service department and they showed me whilst laughing, compliance charged me for an Autowatch system that was not even there
-
So when the car comes back to life it 'knows' where the windows are. You know that little automatic adjustment your car does when the door closes? Yeah you need to reset that.
Put window down, put window up and hold the up button for three seconds at the top, put the window back down. You should be good.
Hmmm cant say i did that exact procedure,
but as far as i can tell windows go up/down fine and still do that lil kick at the end.
-
Just curious,
i changed my battery last week and read you needed to make sure the windows were all the way down before disconnecting...why?
-
I think you should contact Iron Chef and maybe look at sourcing one,
though obviously you may have to wait a tad with all the shiezer thats going dow in Japan at the moment.

My battery shit itself this morning,
was able to push start and i drove straight down to battery world. For $150 i got myself a Century NS60LMF installed which was assured a direct OEM replacement. Had the correct form factor, same dimensions so no need to boost it with a plate as it was too short (mentioned previously), rated at 430CCA and of course full 2 year warranty.

Sooo.... As i was sitting in my car today, coolant started spitting out from that hole at the top of the reserve tank in my engine bay.
I was sitting in a parking spot in the sun waiting for my friend to quickly do something that would take 15 mins.... it took an hour. So as i was sitting in the car as an hour passed i realised smoke coming out of my right and side bonnent and shit myself. I turned the car off, poped the bonnet button and got out of the car to check out wtf is going on. As i go to open the bonnet there is a whole lot of coolant all over the road and i thought my radiator had cracked.... Well once i got the bonnet open the coolant in the reserve tank was boiling and spewing out coolant.
So why im posting here is to ask, will this cause long term problems?? Is it just a one off case from sitting in the sun and having the aircon on full blast??, after letting the car cool when i drove home my temp needle was normal but when i stopped at lights the needle would go to high. Is this caused by there being less coolant due to spilling out. I will top the car up with water when it cools down and take it to the mechanic just to have a quik look over, but do you think this has caused long term damage to my engine?
Had the same problem six months ago while driving through a booze bus setup. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/342013-cooling-issue/page__hl__cooling+issues
Ended up fixing the whole fan assembly just to be safe, ordered the parts from the US as it was about 1/3rd the price.

FYI - For those of you with a TomTom GPS, you can search and find an icon for the Infinity via the TomTom's Home application. Looks very cool to see a silver V35/G35 navigating its way through streets...
Tried to upload the .bmp icon directly here, but that type of file is apparently not allowed.
Bahaha,
you're a classic dude. Love the fine effort!
-
Haha yea and mark it sa "gift" with no value!
Well i just did like many and created a US playstaion account, downloaded the demo and am impressed

Where you located bro?
Mobiletek at Hindmarsh are awesome just ask for Steve, tell him you know Damian with the skyline and he should sort you out. 8346 1555
He has a nice carribean blue V35 coupe too

Regarding the importation of this game,
apparently customs is cracking down and you WILL be caught and WILL be fined in excess of $100,000! But since im oddly enough fascinated with that Border Security show, i fail to see how they will identify it as being MK9 when all they see is an xray of a DVD through the machine. Or am i just too naive?
-
Cant find an amount anywhere, if anyones imported a r33 how much did it cost?
Dont import dude, not worth it for a normal 33 or even a GTR these days. Should be an abundance of them on carsales etc and while some may be absolute POS im sure theres gotta be a few that a good, clean examples.

You can use https://bzl.cis6200.jp/e/ with sign in id - V38095
Doesnt show you auction reports though like on the J-Spec site. Have trust in your broker , if he is any good then he surely wont miss a beat you just have to be patient. Also check http://exchange.goo-net.com/ for fixed price cars.
