The Return Of Boostmeister (almost)

[predator]

so do any of you recomend any yards in brisbane or the coasts?? I don't have to buy from a yard but having some sort of warranty (however good) is always a bonus.

I guess the only issue with buying from a yard is you end up paying more than you should ??

Warranties are pretty scammy.. You always hear stories about them not paying out, or fixing things the cheapest / dodgiest ways possible which only stuff up again later. Especially up here. If you're going to do that, may as well do that youself.

My philosophy is buy private, save the $2k or so, and if you get a dud, spend that $2k fixing whatever stuffed up. Especially if its an R32.. what's an rb20 engine these days - $1200?. The only time I'd buy from a dealer would be a lease situation, more formal situation for writing it off on a business, etc.

I bought from a dealer, got a warrantee, heater core blew, not covered........

Oh and nice to meet you Cam, you were well before my time, but welcome back anyway

OMG hi Cam, welcome back mate I hear you with the downgrade in power thing, I went from 300 to probably 80rwkw on a good day lol, Cressida power!

Josh, roadbike ftw!!

yes good points on the warranty....I also spoke to a couple of other people today who also told me that should I mod the car (fair chance of that ) then the entire warranty will be void with most of them.

Don't kow why, it just feels safer buying from a dealer, but then again, I am talking about buying from a skyline enthusiast after all so buying private should in fact be the safest option

Took a 4 door R33 gts4 S2 with rb26dett for a strap last night....shouldn't have done that want a GTR now But can't afford it so I'm stickin to the R32 plan

Thanks again for the welcome guys and girls

First decision is do you prefer 4wd or rwd?

Remember that ALOT of import odo's are wound back.. Don't rely on the reading if there is no proof.

You can get a private Warranty.. Also use RACQ or the like to do a mechanical check. I personally would never buy from a car yard.. Especially imports where the mark ups are crazy.

Oh and R34 4 door ftw
