I called the seller and told him I'll pay via bank cheque, he wanted cash but i explained to him its the same thing? He may have thought i said Personal Cheque? although I have no idea between the both of them. Commerce isnt my strong point >_<

He told me the name to put the bank cheque under anyways so yeah..

Mate either way.

If you're not comfortable with heaps of cash, bank cheque is the best option.

A bank cheque, you pay the money in advance, so the seller is guaranteed that the funds are there.

i.e The cheque cannot bounce.

Whereas a personal cheque, can bounce, if there are insufficient funds.

However it takes 3 days for them to clear (like a personal cheque) quicker if he's willing to pay for special clearance.

Explain that to him and I think he'll be happy, can't blame him for being hesitant in regards to a standard personal cheque lol.

Bank Cheques can sometimes bounce aswell....just though i'd let every-one know.

Make sure you have insurance covered before you pick up your car.

Good luck :)

Yup.

I just didn't want to mention 'how' over the net :), for obvious reasons, because it involves shiftyness on the drawers behalf (person buying the bank cheque, in this case, buyer.)

Lol, that brings back memories

Bank cheque created. Told Comm bank was buying a car and asked me if I want commbank car insurance. They said they will check up the quote for me and said I was declined haha. No suprise there

Picking up car on Tuesday and taking to vicroads at 11am for rego. Should be legally on the road by 1pm.

I could come to the sau vic meeting on the same day (15th) but i have to learn how to drive/park the huge thing :) (comparing to the auto Getz ive been driving)

lmao they drive like a small car imo.

or maybe im just use to it

^^, car rego'd and sitting on my driveway.

VicRoads were a c**t, they didnt give me rego because i had 17's instead of 16's and due to the spoiler. I removed the spoiler and left the brackets on, and he still said no. So i had to unbolt the friggen brackets which was hard enough as not all screws could have been accessed from the underbody of the boot lid.

All good now, although my oil is low haha.

Will get more pics later

Im off to drive :D

Why no rego for 17"s? Its not illegal. In vic you can go as big as you want in diameter for wheels, as long as the rolling diameter doesnt increase by much.

Good to see you got it in the end though. This is why i always go to Dromana Vicroads - they dont deal with imports very often as you could expect...

on the consumer information notice it stated, 225/50 R16 Nexen, but it didnt match up with the set of 17's i had on. So had to go back and swap them over. Removing the brackets off spoiler really pissed me off as it wasnt even an obstruction.

Racepace said oil pressure is lowish.

Car was sitting above E with 95ron and i quickly put in some 98ron from 7-11 as I couldnt wander off too far from the direct route to vicroads. (or get a fine if pulled over)

Rare ocasions car idles like crap and isnt stable. Assuming its the 95+crappy 98.

Might drop by to sau meeting today. Although ive never driven in the city and getting used to manual again. (have driven for 2months~)

:D

Another quick pic i took;

Hey i found your car!

http://www.prestigemotorsport.com.au/modul...hp?StockID=3960

But where's your big Pivot tacho.....hopefully your seller told you it has an "Accident repair history -- supplier reports the repair to be straight and clean."

looks like your dealer just gets cars from prestige and puts his markup on them...:(

but still, if your happy with the car then thats the main thing :)

haha wtf.

Pivot wasnt included but it had the sticky stuff which needs to be cleaned.

Accident repair history? Im guessing it was the back. As my boot lid is missing stickers on both sides and probably had a respray. If it was serious racepace would have picked it up right? haha

Dropped by at the meeting today for a short time. Showed Paulr33 the car, seemed to be all good.

How'd you manage to find that link?

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks
