Dammjust got back from my regency appointment and failed :D .

Got done for tiwsted brake line but it passed the brake test.

6 x 9 speakers in the back so they cut the metal parcel shelf and parkers and low beam on 1 side.

Does any1 know hwo or where i could get to fix/ put in a new metal parcel shelf???

please help

Can be classed as structural support, so hacking away at that, in their eyes, is a big no no. In some cases, this means the rear parcel shelf needs to be engineered before you can pass Regency. That's happening alot these days.

friend called me today, his sisters boyfriends pimped as dr30 was stollen last night/early morning :P

was such a old schooler look too :)

ill see if i can get more details, was stollen around the woodcroft area though

Why you selling stockies?

Did you get that roll and flare done? How the rims going?

Coz i dont need them, they arent legal for regency so theres no real point in them laying around, a mate of mine wants to buy them too.

Havent got roll and flare yet. Rims going good!!!

You got your XD9 set yet?

What XD9's?... :P

Yeah I got them here. Using them as a kiddy pool for the dog. :)

... its currently there getting a cracked heater core hose repaired... fun stuff

Well got the beast back and while it took the guys a while to get to the rooted hoses, it was worth it. Not only was one ruptured and spewing my precious nissan coolant all over the front diff, but there were two others very close to giving way.... probably I could give advice to anyone with a 20yr old GTR that hasn't yet replaced the hose, now is the time ;P

And now I can drive without my car stankin' like anti freeze and peeing chloroform

woot

-D

    • 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 have the 2025 build re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I quite rate them for street wet and dry
    • 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.
    • 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.
