ok.. really. not many real GTR owners like it. seriously. sure u might but i guess ur a teen that likes body kits sound systems and BOV's.

i too am a teen and will be for 2 more years.. and i focus on performance.. seriously.. wtf would i buy a 25k car and rice it up when i can buy a honda VTiR and mod it exhast it and rice it to the tune of $25k?

u buy the best car a GTR. and u insult it with flavourless kits and wheels. $5000 on wheels and kit or $5000 on power FC, hi mount single turbo + manifold and tune :) i knw waht ill do

i think to alot of people the r32 gtr is the ultimate car and cannot be improved on the exterior. i also agree and have a stock bodied gun metal gtr which gets me hard everytime i look at it. BUT people must remember that to some people it is a status symbol rather than an enthusiasts car or maybe you buy something just because you can .

i hate bogans but i still owned a 96 series 2 clubsport. bought it cos i liked it but still thoughtt that imports were the way to go.

oouch bought a car that he liked and then changed things to his own tastes. i reckon more power to him. just because he is not a purist doesnt mean he should be judged as wrong or tasteless.

      Rusty roof repair

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.

      I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent.

      Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.

      Rusty roof repair

      So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
