DCEIVE: yep, used in 2000 classic rally i believe

id say it did do 13s or better when c-red had it

but i suspect they used a bigger turbo :)

you buy your car from AutoCo? they seem to have had a couple of hr31's and a dr30 too i think...

Nate: my car currently has a blown gearbox

doubt that it will be repaired in time :D

DCEIVE, is your GTS a 2 or 4 door?

I think I have seen it around. There was a 4 door one for sale in auto trader a couple of weeks ago for $9,000. I begged my b/f to buy it but he said no. He bought a Commodore instead.

If you need info or parts or anything you should call my Dad at SST. He has my old R31 GTS-X and Jayson takes his R31 GTS-X there too. He also gets heaps of other model Skylines. Dad specialises in Skylines so he knows a bit and knows where to get parts etc.

That sounds great! I would love to join in cruises etc. Where can I get the info of upcoming events? From this forum? When do you meet at Motorplex? Is that the Street Racing on Sundays? Sorry, lots of questions!!

      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

      By PranK · Posted

      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.
