Not a mod.

Hit and run.

There are several four letter words Id like to type. But I dont want to risk banning.

Im devistatd to say the least. Its taken me several hours to build up the courage to see the full extent in day light.

Only about a month after spending $500 odd on GTR bonnet, latch and grille. And only one week after I got on top of my general maintanence (ABS unit, grease bushes, brake pads, brake fluid, oil temp gauge, oil change, oil filter, petrol fuel lines changed etc.)

Damage done:

Bent GTR Bonnet + deep scratching (perhaps may be bent back)

Bent and chipped paint Guard (perhaps can be bent back)

Shattered GTR Grille

2 x Headlights

2 x Blinkers

GTST Front bar

GTST Reo bar

Bent GTR bonnet latch

I fear that the radiator support my be damged too.

I dont think Im going to se get the insurance company involved. Its a $2500 excess. Money that I can take to spend myself on rebuilding. Im trying to put a positive spin on it by buying a Finnal Konnexion front bar, GTR N1 head lights, GTR blinkers and GTR front quarter pannels. Straighten GTR Bonnet, Carbon fibre GTR grill. But its an eye wateringly large amount of money I shouldnt have to spend cos some f*$king toss bag on red P's decided to come in too quick into a round about, and understeer/lock up and plow into me!

Sorry to hear about that mate

I was pissed off enough on Wednesday when someone hit my car and left without leaving a note.

I would hate to think how I would be if that happened to me

Gets worse.

F*ckin rails are bent!

Any one know what that means?

5K+ at least to fix. Or. ay the excess, get the money and some man in a suite takes my lovely awy from me.. ;)

I want to meet the man that ran into me..

also: i feellll sooooo sorry for the guy who got hit and runned......thats gay man...usually i think im in controll of things like that..like i dont park anywhere unless i know the area (schoool) or the ppl (friends house) or i just dont park ther for long at all (in and out of coles etc)......and im carefull when i drive because of insurance ($3000 ex)....but a hit and run....fark man didnt think about that ay...cant do much if ur car comes out second best.....

also i just recently took the fog lights out(came with car from jap).....looks mean...post pics when i get some :D

you know that's the weird thing Cris. these rims make the car seem a lot higher than what it actually is.

there was about 120mm clearance with my sparco rims, the nismo's have the same rolling diameter so really the height shouldn't have changed.

see how the skirts go, if not i can always drop down 1 or 2 circlips on the bilsteins.

thanks - i'll try to get some high res pics later today.

the rims are 17 x 8.5, running 235s 595SS on them now. hopefully will have some 595RS semis to put on them at the end of the year. they are so amazingly light, makes me nervous driving them around.

p.s. - love the silhouette with those LMGT2 rims!!! hot!!

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
