Thats the last thing I thought I would see you post Dave.

If I were to have a 33 it would have to be s2 typeM with the lower lip on front bar etc.

Please don't tell me its a silver 33? :)

More specs and info on it Dave?

haha, yeah, i never thought id be tempted by anything less than a series 3 R, funny how things go.

its white, pretty much a stocker, fairly cheap.

I need your help, guys n girls.

I have a massive fear of commitment/rejection.

Im taking a big step next weekend of going out to dinner with one of my friends, and i cant decide on where to take her.

It will be my very first "date" and im 19. Kinda sad, but yeah.

I cant find the thread that had places to take your girl to. So im asking in here.

Can you help me with any good restaurants in adelaide, that wont break the bank?

Thanks

bout time twink. better late than never.

question you gotta ask though, whats she into? the idea of going just to a dinner might bore her tears.

at least youre not thinking 'movies' straight off the bat though, bad idea for a first.

Revolving resteraunte (sp) in Glenelg, eat there, have a few light drinks.

Then walk down to the grand have a few more drinks, and take the night as it comes. Bit of dancing to avoid awkward scilences etc. Prepare to spend a few $$$ lol :)

Scandy, does it have the typeM lower front lip etc? They look awesome with that lip and side skirts and stuff

you need to be able to start a conversation with one to ask their advice jake. twink. :)

try something out of the ordinary. not massively random, but something slightly unexpected. if you cant think of anything unusual...

... then you really oughtta try maccas.

If the 33 is mint I would consider it,

There is that restaurant on the island at Victor harbour, so you could turn it into a nice sunday drive and grab a big late lunch something less formal :)?

Just because i drive a 31, doesn't make me poor!

I've known this girl for a while, so its not exactly going to be awkward.

Strand, Salsa, Gringos, Revolving Restaurant seem like good ones at the moment.

only reason i am really.

bingo. casual drive, check the sights, late afternoon lunch or dinner as the sun sets, walk along the beach, guaranteed in.

its a 31 thing. whenever someone suggests 'expensive' a 31'ers mind instantly goes to 'lowball' and poor.

basically 'lowballing because youre poor' is the running joke on the 31 forums.

ie, a typical for sale thread on the 31 forums;

"sweet wheels, id buy them but i had to buy petrol and rego my car, but ill give you $15 next week after i get paid if you can arrange postage?"

Precisely!

Did you not say a RB25 hybrid? Or is that the type of turbo, a hybrid of a RB25 turbo, not the engine.

I am putting a 3076R on a stock RB25...but it will have 740cc injectors, and a kickass ECU. Just a matter of booking the car in, and handing over about $1.5k to have it installed and tuned :)

lol, i meant turbo as hybrid. got a blown 25 turbo ready to be molested

The difference in response between the 3071 and the 2871 would be less then 200rpm but will give you more headroom for future mods. Infact Powertune in NSW and Street Forced Performance in Vic have developed a 3071 kits for SR's that are as responsive as a 2871r if not more responsive. I'll find the thread;

EDIT!! Here you go

thanks for the info dale, will have a read and a look. if it can save me a few squid and i dont have to go to a custom turbo, i'll be happier

    • 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.
