Hello everyone in NSW.

I'm living in ACT and I require some work done on my GTR due to 2 or so roos jumping out infront of me and pushing me into as barrier. I'm finding it rather hard to find someone in ACT who either knows their way around a skyline's frame or even wants to do the job. I've been told it isnt that much of a hard job just a time consuming one. I will supply all the parts that are required to fix the frame and only need them to fix the frame (not even put the parts like radiator, intercooler or lights back on) as I have someone down here who can do the rest here, as the only problem they have is they dont trust themselves with the frame work.

So if anyone knows of a decent workshop that will consider the job (that wont charge the earth) can you PM me their contact number and I will be very appricative.

So thanks for your time :banana:

Cheers!

Paul

Well, roos...2 to be exact, and as it was wet i span out and hit a barrier, which probably caused the most damage. But yeah most people would say it a write off, but that only cause it looks ugly but its mostly replaceable. I'll put some pics onto photobucket when i get chance, but I'm still trying to find someone.

Cheers and thanks for noticing this thread.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
