Holy shit bags! :banana:

yeah gotta love it, the media see a skyline tag and instantly its a high performance vehicle

let alone the fact its an r31 4 door...

rear does look jap, esp the 2" single tail... looks like an import

camera angle is from the angle the car entered, the front snapped off and is bent around the section that isnt visible

typical sensationalist journalism. pathetic.

oh and good luck to the kids in there, that was a hell of a hit regardless of the shoddy reporting. i think if they survive they'll be taking the bus for quite a while.

Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

well that sucks, it didnt quote what i wanted

basically in addition, the bit about the seatbelts / seats having to be removed, they forget to mention that you cant just put the bolts back in the seat belt mounting holes. they have to be welded up so that you cant use them again. seems stupid IMO

There are ways around this that aren't so permanent. If you want to know PM me, I don't what to post up in there because I don't want the SPYs to know :banana:

well thats feked!! since when hast been so FORMAL??

we're just trying to keep the riff raff out. :banana:

edit: the 31 in that story does appear to be an import, bootlid, rear door and lack of b pillar (not just cut off, there wasnt one there, period) seem to give it away.

agreed, is HR31, also the badging gives it away (as ive not seen anyone go to the attempt of badging an aus 4 door as a Passage GT lol

any auto elec gurus want to give me a hand. for some wierd and wacky reason, my brake lights have stopped workin on my trailer. every other function on the 7 pin plug works (parkers, clearance lights, indicators, electric brakes) just not brake lights. couldnt find my test light, so was testing with a multimeter and couldnt get a reading at the plug on the back of the car

anyone want to come and suss it out for me? either that or if ya in the area im going to be ripping whats left outta the 31 so feel free to drop by

far out...if that happened in Aust, they would put you up in a nice hotel with at least 1 meal a day at the airlines expense.....happened to 3 of us in Sydney a few years ago and ended up in the Hilton overnight with all we could eat in their alacarte dining that night.

      Rusty roof repair

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      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.
