Yeah, Im not a fan of the front bar as it stands now. I have attached a MS paint pic of what I would like to do, I think it just makes the car so much cleaner. (excuse the MS Paint effort LOL)

Anyway, might have to get some quotes on it to find out how much. I was thinking of a GTR bar, but at $300 for the bar from Viva, then modification to fit, then painting, figure It might be a cheaper option just to modify the existing bar :worship:

Yeh thats exactly how my bar is! Alot smoother in my opinion! Besides i thing the GTR bar needs to have the wider front 1/4's otherwise it looks wak!

Its really not difficult to own an R34 GTT at the age of 19.

They can be picked up for ~25k ish.

Back when I was 19 I bought a 25k VS 5ltr 5speed commodore, ~3years old back then.

Exactly, you just gotta work hard (and have decent pay ofcourse) and know how to save ur money.

I have no idea Red..

Regarding your stuck coil over. I had to use a fence post on the end of a breaker bar on one of mine.

Your good at persisting; give it another shot. :P

Suspension is being done as we speak.... i needed a hex head socket set not a 16 point one.... .i kept rounding off the bolts (this time persistance didnt pay off)... so i thought it was time to give it to the pros to do......

anyone keen on trying to keep up tomorrow night... same time same place if it is dry. (hills run)

any idea on the 180 seat rails being a direct fit to a 33????....anyone

Chris, just get a $30 socket set from Supercheap or somewhere if you're in need of some. That or get a set of ring spanners as "multifit" tools are always going to strip nuts etc. Even adjustable spanners are evil (2 edges of grip). Whenever possible, ALWAYS have all six sides gripped.

Anyway, hope you're happy with how it turns out :P

Hiya Shaun :thumbsup:

I did get your email, sorry was so busy today...

I will ask around and get back to you :thumbsup:

Have you been spotted yet with the new plates?

Hey Jess :P

It is all good, i know you are busy it is all good.

No spotting with the plates yet as i am not putting them on until the new front bar gets fitted and painted and the rear number plate bracket gets fixed.

How is your car going?

      Rusty roof repair

      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.
