considering selling the onevia (although now that its painted its going to be a little harder to let go :) ) don't have time to have the same interest in cars as I used to/would like to. Also not practical with my studies... part time jobs don't pay well and gotta start saving for a house deposit...

The history

I took ownership of this car over from HUSTLA on here as a ca18det silvia in about november last year. he purchased it off of another forum member before that as an auto but dropped in a fresh ca18det and manual when he got it. few aftermarket mods were fitted when he did this including metal head gasket, t25g turbo, front mount, pod, 040, new extreme 'drift series' clutch and a few other minor things

i got it off dan and the first thing i did was the onevia conversion as i had some of the parts lying around like my bonnet (which was incomplete at the time) and not to mention i love the look of them. after this the car went matt black for a while to keep everything one colour (car looked funny with multi coloured panels and fibreglass parts haha - i'm not hardcore enough to paint a perfectly good car matt black for the looks :))

anyway while continually modifying it i put it up for sale but it seems that most people can't appreciate a decent matt black paint job when they see one so i decided to bite the bullet and get it painted myself. colour is a PPG metallic gold champagne (deep gold in poor light and silvery-champagne in sunlight)

car has no known accident history, and i have had an raa inspection done on it (will have to dig up the papers) and have fixed all the small things that they listed as un-roadworthy which were shit anyway like no front guard indicators, no front parkers etc as i want the car to be as close to perfect for the next owner as possible. car is dead straight underneath and that is no joke

anyways...

-Genuine nissan factory option plastic side skirts

-Chargespeed rear bar

-Metal bonnet with masa bonnet vents installed

-Rolled and flared rear guards (bloody nuts looking)

-Standard front guards lipped and rolled

car has just had a major service completed so all fluids and filters were replaced along with spark plugs etc

now for the pics, sorry about quality also. car is rubbed back in 2000grit wet rub just awaiting the final buff which i will book in for when i get the time (the reason the colour looks flat in these couple of pics if becasue of this)

looking for:

$15200ono with the deep dish works

$13500ono without the rims

and $2500ono for rims by themselves

looking at purchasing a stagea when this sells, or at least something capable of towing. so if you have something you think i may be interested in trading for then let me know :) but would really prefer a stag :)

    • Impossible to remove the housing while turbo is installed on the manifold on the engine. So I have to do it anyways. I plugged it so there will not be any debris in there. Will vacuum aswell 
    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
