silver one sounded rough as guts. Wouldn't touch it with a 10 ft pole. Although if you got it for 15k and put some money into it you would have a pretty cheap 33 gtr.

Bah Saturday night was shit. Lost $250 to bad luck carnts! puts back the 31s progress a couple of weeks at least. Liverpool won on the weekend though so :banana::D:D

Oh and all my uni assignments are doneskies! Now just got to learn everything for my final exams hurrah.

If you can get it down below 15k, it might be worth it for someone thats gonna do up a full track car. After selling the bits in the car that you dont need, it will definitely be worthwhile. But at 19k... I dont think anyone that knows a bit or 2 would touch it, not even me when I dont know shit 1yr ago. Hahaha. At least I know if those 2 turbo goes, you'll be looking at 3-4k to replace them with labour included.

It's parts vaule would have to be 15k.

Which brings me to my next question; lol at people offering less than what a car is worth in parts.

People like me will only part out cars, thus bringing the over supply down and price stable.

Only works that way if people want to waste 6 months trying to part out a car. The majority of the parts value would be in the engine anyway and its definitely on its last legs. For every 1 person thats willing to sell there car as parts there are 10 more willing to sell it for less as a package.

Only those who borrowed to high hell.

I've noticed, with Gtst's at least there has been a turn, if they cant sell them they will just keep them. Which is fair enough.

Either way you wont make any money out of parting a car. Its only a matter of time before they're all as cheap as 31s lol.

You might be suprised.

Lights, trim, little tid-bits etc. All bring good money as the cars get older.

Noel is a prime example of making very good money out of parting out perfectly good cars.

the last car Noel parted out he managed to get for 4k and didnt make a massive profit or anything...and he still has bits of it sitting around!

But yeah the price he got it for was hardly typical!

Yeh and with that car, what if he tried to sell the shit on all the sites.

sd

pf

boost

ns

ect

Put half an effort in.

My point is, you're all a bunch of tight kents and want everything for nothing. Nothing shits me more then some smart ass trying to offer less than what the car is worth for parts.

I enjoy nothing more then closing the garage door in people's face's saying I have no desire to sell my shit to you anymore.

I didn't think he made that much out of it?

Depends on how much you value your time I spose. I wouldn't be arsed parting out a car for an extra 2k when I can just sell it for less and be done with it.

Because I think $5k R33's and R32's are too cheap and if someone wants what I have I will sell it for what I think it's worth. Every single car I have owned except the Lexus and quick R32 I got more then what they are worth... I dont plan on changing that

If that means stripping the kent right down, I will.

I'm a bit of a shit of a person to buy from, not wasting my time comming to my house to get a closed door in the face :(

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
