yeah i agree with your 2nd comment Roo it really isn't fair, agree with Pete too

Yeah. Wasn't setting out to insult religion ... as saying goes "words can't describe ...", prob best I didn't try to put to words. Tracy has gotten over it. One of the downsides to her occupation, having to deal with death. But in this case, the patients are children.

I know he needs to sell due to the split with his wife... its a fresh import with all the jap papers so I dont know why it is so cheap. He does all the importing/compliance himself too so no middle man charges and stuff.

What? When I split with my wife, she got none of my toys and I didn't sell a single one of them during the divorce. Lost the house tho :)

brb, ringing the bank about loan extension :)

DO IT!!!

When I posted it ages ago it wasnt actually advertised on any sites, he has only recently put it up :)

If I had the money id go have a look! I got my car for really cheap and there was nothing wrong with it...

I have seen this car for sale for well over 6 months at various prices - as low as $36k at one point. Given other R34GTRs are selling around the place for $50k+ there must be something seriously wrong with this one. I haven't driven it, but the fact that he won't let ANYONE drive it without a deposit also makes it an extremely difficult car to sell. I certainly wouldn't put a deposit down before I drove the car.

Ah well.

If it was Bayside Blue or Black I would already own it either way.

a minute's silence please :(

just waved goodbye to the R :)

Thats was a pretty quick sale Pete!! Its a nice car..Can I ask where she has gone?? Still in SA or interstate?

It's a sad moment, I did it with mine not that long ago :( But still have the race car! :)

I'm sure thats the one. I was there not long ago. Nice pub. :)

Watch out for the cop shop up the road tho :)

It was a hole before the renovations!

Thats where all the party people at my work begin there night haha... yeah Ill be there, we have happy hour in our meeting rooms tonight. 4 bucks for as many drinks and nibbles as you like! Woo Hoo!

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
