hey there guys

just wanted to share my experience with everyone when i finally brought my r32 gtst 10 months ago

since then what has happen to my 32 is my front driver side fender has been reverse into as it was parked at

the gym, leaving me the bill, as the driver did a hit and run, next to follow that was my car was parked at a friends house slept

overnight and came out the next morning to find that my driver side door had been reverse into, damaged was to great so

had to purchase a new door and respray the whole driver side, yet again leaving me with the bill. After getting my car back in

perfect working order i was involve in a accident today. Was driving on the highway and the driver of another car signal into my

lane without looking at his blind spot and hit my whole driver side (wat luck huh?) so now i need a new side blinker and

another respray on the driver side. l

That sucks man did the guy that hit you today have insurance at least? Hope things go better for you soon, theirs nothing worse then constant problems with your pride and joy, makes you so depressed.

yeh we have a cursed black car too, 350z, its had 5 good hits in 4 years, every panel has been done, none were our fault. Most recently a jeep turned into us in a corner, I stopped when he hit me but he kept driving - so he scraped the front bumper, drivers side guard, drivers door, drivers rear guard and rear bumper

Wow mine must be the only lucky black car then.

The only problem I have had is clutch went.. Stock clutch my fault because I was pushing it on the skidpans, your usually old worn parts that need to be replaced over time.. And my gearbox needs a reco but thats another story.

Ive had my car for nearly 2 years now.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
