They didn't seem to keep this car long, Seems a little bit dear compared to others on the net, but then again they don't look anywhere near as sexy as this one - nor are they as modified :(

On Car Sales

They had it for well over a year!!!

Id buy it!

Makes me regret my car now!

if you add up what has been spent it doesn't seem to overpriced to me.

for example:

9k = car

5k=bodywork

2.5k=wheels/tyres

say...8k=engine (labor+parts)

2k=susp

2k=turbo

1.5=powerfc

that's probably not everything but it's already totalled way more than 24k

i'm in no way affiliated to the owner and that's just a rough guesstimate, i don't think it's too overpriced at all.

obviously HPI would have recieved benefits for some of the things (labour/parts) however it seems to be a pretty solid car to buy into.

Have you tried to sell an extensivly modified import in the last 12 months?

I refer to my mate having trouble selling a clean manual T67 equipped

Soarer for 12.5k, and this-

If it was rego'd perhaps it would make a little more sense.. Its still running an RB20 box I believe. Also most of the parts they have fitted aren't the more expensive brands. Though that won't matter to some.

89-90 R32 GTRs with upgraded turbos and 400rwhp+ sell for this price though, and even cheaper....

Very unique ride however :action-smiley-069:

aka timebombs :wub:

I think everyone wants something for nothing these days, seems reasonably priced to me, that RB24 would have cost a bomb to build, mates rates or not.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
