  1. Agree as well. I put my r33 up on carsales and within 24 hours it was sold to someone interstate for 12k. For weeks after, I constantly had people calling me up to check out the car. Mine was mod-less... purely because it looked like it rolled out the factory the week before I had people jumping at it. Price your car accordingly. No need to follow the sheep
  2. Haha, that is a really good point. Who knows except them of what they are capable of!
  3. Hey Clint Had something similar on my old 33 (From a seriously old Jap sticker). I used a cutting compound to remove, then a proper fine cutting compound to bring the clear back to perfect. You know what I expect quality wise!
  4. I am going to make them supply a decent deposit if they want to take the car for a test drive. I'll also take their drivers license to ensure they are who they are and for the purpose you supply there boz (thanks for that didn't think of that a tall). Cheers guys
  5. How easy going are you guys when it comes to people asking to test drive your car? I don't really want to let anyone test drive my car until I know they are 100% serious. Does this seem strange or do you guys just let everyone/almost everyone behind the wheel of your car?
  6. They do hit up a fair amount of people, and I have read that quiet a few actually don't know and go ahead with these. Hard to people someone would do it, but it happens! Col - It's best not to give your bank details out. Why would the banks discourage giving out your bank details to whomever if it was 100% safe... Who knows what they could do with it? The common Joe might not be able to do anything with it. But they might just be a dodge bank worker who could see information about your linked accounts then call up the bank as you? Able to reset login passwords with the above information? I don't know what they could possibly do, but if the bank discourages people giving their bank details out to everyone, I'd take caution with that advice. That said, that isn't how the scam works. They send you a bank cheque after their transaction doesn't work. The cheque (Normally about $500 more than you ask for) instantly clears for about 10 days. They ask for the extra $500 that they send to be returned to them. You do so... then 10 days later you get a call from the bank saying the cheque was fake and the amount is deducted. The above is simply what one of the websites explained about this particular scam
  7. Wow, had my first scammer attempt on this today... Sorry no swaps... and yes it comes with a RWC
  8. Cosmic, how much did you end up selling it for? I checked out your link but its sold - congrats
  9. Wow amazing shots form and function!
  10. This is hot... nice car and photo
  11. Hey Guys For those that don't know, I've put up my R34 for sale... Having a baby soon! Anyways, thought I'd share my short and quick experience with this scammer. After about 2 minutes worth of research I found that this group of scammers have been doing this for sometime and will continue to do so. They all use similar opening emails. I replied with the following After that I received another replying saying "I want you to trust me"... which I decided to no longer reply. Just a heads up guys...
  12. There was a guy on ebay who sold them (Really nice quality.. solid metal and has really nice reflections). I just had a quick look and he isn't selling them anymore.I know he puts them up every few months, but he only has about 10 at a time. This is a better photo of the badge (The one in the photos above wasn't the metal reflective one it has now).
  13. Hehe... I'll be sure to catch a ride with you or one of the other SAU QLD members to the big meets! Good interest after the 1st day of posting! Hopefully this sells almost as fast as my previous R33 (Sold in 24 hours) lol...
  14. I just realised there are no photos of the interior so ran outside and took a few more snap shots.
  15. Was hoping you wouldn't find this thread haha... sorry man >< Yen doesn't want me to sell, but I feel I need to get something which she will be able to drive as well as myself. Found a few more photos as well: I also forgot to mention something quite important... my mobile number 0421 185 272
  16. 1998 Skyline R34 GT-T Impul Sides & Rear with Front Lip 99,XXX KMs, BP9 (Rare Dark Metallic Blue), 2 Door, Rego until Jun/Jul South Side - Brisbane, QLD $19,800 I've only owned this car since June 2011, but its time to say goodbye to my beloved R34 GT-T. My mates and family are telling me not to sell, but its time to be the family man! (First child due in August!!) If you are looking for a R34 GT-T which has been immaculately looked after, then this is your chance to pick one up. I have more photos available, just ask... General Points of note - As I said above, I purchased this car in June 2011 and I am selling it only 6 months later. I've only done 5,000km's! Which is a bit sad haha... I'm looking forward to being a Dad! - This car is packing an Impul rear bumper and Impul side skirts along with a standard front lip. Why did I choose this? I love the Impul kit, but the front was just too low (80mm) and just 1 bump would make me cry! Low cars look nice - But 95% of them are cracked... Not exactly my taste. - The car has QLD rego until June or July. - An enclosed garage has kept this car out of the sun and bad QLD weather. My car is never driven in the rain (I hate messing up all the hard work keeping the body so shiny!). When it goes onto the streets, it never visits the City or Gold Coast - I keep her out of traffic and out of major crime areas (ie: GC). - Visited the track twice - Once was a happy laps and breakfast with SAU and pushed her for only 1 lap. When I say 'pushed her' I don't think I red lined it once while on the track. The second time was for SAU SCC 2011 and my peak top speed would of been about 30km/hr - Because this was a for a photo shoot only. After my first track day she had the full 100,000km service completed. - Everything my mechanic says/recommends is completed. He's looked after both my skylines and kept them in tip-top shape (Along with many other imports at his garage). He has recently completed the 100,000km service (At 97,000km) and said everything was in immaculate condition. I'll be taking her in at 100,000km's again just so I can see the services are in multiples of 5,000. Yes, some people tell me I have OCD. - Paint Care: I start with a two bucket process wash using Nxt Gen soap then wiped dry. Auto Glym deep shine polish is then applied followed by two coats of Nxt Gen 2 wax. All of this is done using quality fabrics. - Interior is kept replenished by fortnightly armour oils. Modifications I prefer and pay more for mechanically original cars. I prefer to see less 'play' under the bonnet. This way I know I'll have a car which is intended for use this way and will last longer. The only modification under the bonnet are Splitfire Coilpacks. - 3 inch full HKS exhaust (Not very loud but cases a rumble in my garage!). - 18 inch Work wheels (Rear are 265x35x18) - Impul Sides and Rear with a Front Lip - Has XENON headlights installed but using standard bulbs (For compliance). - Quality tinting completed by Solar Style Window Tinting. This is the same quality tinting as what you would get with a brand new BMW - This is the guy that does it! - Kenwood head unit USB/Aux input with quality front and rear speakers replaced - $800 worth of quality sound. - Mongoose M80 alarm and 3 point immobiliser. Keyless entry with two remotes. Inbuilt Turbo Timer. Alarm is Aussie standards and thus a legal t-timer! Installed by Autobarn slacks creek. Car is only serviced by Nigel at Mosleys Automotive in slacks creek using OEM parts only. When I purchased the car he changed a few things to make the car like new. Since then he has completed a 100,000km using all OEM parts. Everything was replaced - even the parts which he told me are still like new and don't need to be replaced. I like to do everything properly first time around. I have never had any issues with the police. They see my car and leave me alone. The only time I have ever had police approach me in this car was to have a chat about it! They said they wish they had cars like this for undercover work and walked away. I'm not sure if I have missed anything, but please feel free to send me a private message if you have any further questions. This car is jump in and drive away... no need to fix and buy a heap of junk that many other skylines need! Thanks for taking the time to read such a long post! Cheers, Richie
  17. Haha sorry mate - I remember well, all I could see was black windows... I would of waved back if I could of seen you!
  18. Saw a white 33 GTR on mains road Sunnybank about 3-4 days ago. Was stopped at the lights out the front of Nandos. I saw SAU stickers on the car, but your window tinting was too dark to see inside!
  19. Saw CAL 333 about a week ago on Blunder Road
