' date='12 Jun 2006, 10:53 PM' post='2250085'] awsome mitchy :) brett is a top dude :O

they brought my nismo frontbar back from the dead (almost 3whole days of work on it)

yeah.. i rang around a fair bit, everyone gave me outrageous quotes as they didnt want to touch fibreglass (but wouldnt admit it), and they were all reluctant to do any work on the car at all.

brett said straight out he would do it for me, and he has had the best price, quickest time, and best attitude of the lot!

when i need my rear bar modified for twin exhausts, i know where im taking it :D

Just remember who ever you go with to have patience, make sure you have a run around car, and make sure you get the total cost, including refitting and removing the windows. 32 front windscreens tend to crack when you remove them, so budget for that too.

Oh and take heaps of photos so you know where everything goes back too >_<

well its starts off as 3k upwards, depends what i want done. they said that they rub the car to bear metal and fix all the lil dents and stuff. i am only after the outside of the car done. so i am expecting around 4 to 5 k with the job i want done and i am in no rush. no deposit needed so i can just drop my car off. job could take a few months but as i said i am in no rush cause i need to come up with the money. first i am getting the full exhaust system and a FMIC on my car then i will be putting it in for paint. hoping to get a grand out of my tax return.

Lol no rush, by the sounds of it weve got months :D

Yeh mitchy your car should look interesting once its finished. What bar did you choose? and why black for the tail light surrounds?

chose the trust style front bar again, however it doesnt have the side vents anymore, no indicator cutouts in the front, and its designed for a gts-t, not a gtr like the last one.. :thumbsup:

black surrounds is just something different, will probably tint the hot-plates too.

might be getting some veilside rear pods too, dave is checking if he had some floating around. :D

saw your r32 sitting inside.. didnt even realise it was a skyline, thats how stripped it was :)

should look sweet come autosalon :)

    • Thanks mate, couldn't find in VIC, ended up ordering one from NSW, getting rwc to get new plates and registration done.
    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home
