hey chef, im the guy that came to vicroads and the bank in the grey 32 the other day when you were picking up the car. apparently the right bulb is brand new and the left bulb was taken out to make sure that it was alright, and it was. so it might not have been put back in properly, therefore not coming on. try taking it out and puting it back in and see what happens.

Hey man,

I was the other guy that was going to buy that car!! What did u end up getting it for if i can ask? How much did it cost for RWC? I wasnt willing to buy it without it, i was a bit worried abou the exhaust manifold gasket? Did u get that fixed? Did it end up needing a new windscreen?

Rhett

nah, no new windscreen, i got to get those two chips fixed.

I payed all up $13500 for it, and today in the car i found a reciept from the guys mechanic... i can't read it very well, but the bill was like $1300, i'm going to talk to him about that today.

BTW coco69, i used to hang at glenny but not su much recently, i think i've seen you down there. we'll hook up on the weekend some time....

Oh, and i replaced the bulb last night, cost $7. looks fine now...

i might wanna get the bonnet resprayed, any ideas how much it will cost??? or maybe but a white one on that was in the for sale section...thoughts??

Yeah. the paints sweet except for some stone chips on the front...

The Odometer on the car said around 95,000kms. I'm not saying its been clocked back. I'm just stating the facts.

It's funny how alot of people have cars the look exactly the same as mine. We should all go on a cruise to confuse people... fun with the cops too.

if your HICAS light is coming on at low revs then its time to replace your battery.

yeah, its going pretty sweet. I'm getting another alarm with an immobiliser put in, so that insurance is all sweet.  

The hicas light goes on when i'm about to its reving low (me about to stall)? is that normal???

Sorry to but in guys, but speaking of R32's (I have one too! :-)) Does anyone know where to get some small mud-guards? I have seen some on a Skyline in a pic from the UK. I would like to get my hands on some for my R32 because I unfortunately have a short dirt road that must be driven on to get home :-(

Cheers.

    • 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 re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I highly 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.
