boot floors are part of crumple zone, its meant to crease, you just put it on the rack and pull it straight again. as long as your rails aren't kinked its easy panel beating with parts from a donor cut if the floor's too creased to pull straight.

it'll cost the workshop about 3k to 5k to fix, but obviously they're gonna quote you 8k to make a tidy profit, they're not a charity.

If you don't have a workshop hookup that'll look after you, your best option is find a couple of workshops that'll give you high quotes, enough to write off the car. Just Car's threshold is 70% to 75% of the value of the car. Sometimes you might have to pay em a $100 to make em give you two quotes high enough to get the payout. For them its $100 for typing up a piece of paper and getting the shop down the road to do the same.

Its a good deal Brandon. Tristans car does epic skids :P

I dont think 8k is unreasonable. It would be a fair amount of work to straighten up the car properly and things will always come up which are unexpected. Its probably a 6k job but the guy has given himself a buffer.

PS: GTR + RWD Mode?...

Yea. If it's in my hand it'll be end up like that s15 in the Tokyo Drift movie. Time to knock off work!

not a bad thought funky - ill see what the quotes end up as..

Like OMG ULEH SKIDS?

lol i'm so far from a uleh its not funny!

track skids only haha

You!

I just got a Do Luck Torque Manager with some of krudd's money.

Its fuckin epic. Better than all the other ETS's on the marke. Lets you select what speed you want it to operate at, what torque spilt you want while cornering, and what torque spilt to use while going straight. You want this in your car, along with more low.

use a translator on this site:

If you wanna be sneaky, tell em the agreed value of the car is 20k. So when they do the maths they'll think that if they quote around 10k to 12k they'll still get the job.

Nah like epic angle skids.

I have other things that need attention before that is considered. But one will be going in the car eventually :P

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
