Andy: I did shop around, PLENTY when looking for tyres for the SP23 & the R33 (rang approx 15 tyre places). Both times Adelaide Tyrepower were the best price for what I wanted.

I cant explain why they weren't the best price for you, but im still surprised they weren't.

Did they come in s2? I know of a gun metal grey one with chrome rims if its still there

Yeh they came in S2 and gunmetal would be nice also but no.1 preference is a silver (sonic) ;)...but i think you are referring to a s1 which is a no go unfortunately.

I just want to see the kind of prices people are asking for them as i might be getting a house instead of a GTR, but ill need another nice skyline other then my 31...And i wouldn't go to anything else non GTR, but a silver s2 R33...my true love :). Still cant get over my stolen 1 and its been 2 years !!!

as i might be getting a house instead of a GTR, but ill need another nice skyline other then my 31...And i wouldn't go to anything else non GTR,

u can get a house + a GTR

sick of your 31 already? its difficult downgrading from a 34 hey?

Nah not sick of the 31, i was just secretly hunting for a GTR ;) but i think my money is better spent on a house at this stage ! And if i can manage to pick up a 33+house = win > GTR !

GTR can wait...all in good time :)

Lol andy if you were my boss you would have me bidding on yahoo auctions all day

why no s1 kissin lack of air bag? What if its a steal of a price

nothin wrong with s1, just s2 has mega sentimental value. Im in no rush to buy so i would prefer to buy something that would be perfect.

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
