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.

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 :(

    • Fark what are the changes of that snapping like that, clean. Nek minnit, custom radiator goes in, with built in oil cooler like those discontinued PWR ones from yesterdeacades ago
    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
