Between 2k - 5k depending on what i find/like/want when I have money in my pocket.

Nope

Woot bonnet is now fixed!

Lesson learned: DIY

/sigh... $200 gone to the body works shop then to fix up their crappy mistakes at home

lads

boring day is boring

sitting in the office pretending to do work before my 1pm meeting. then will finish for the day

hopefully weather holds out and I may make an appearance tonight

wet weather + cheap tyres + leaky sunroof = shithousen

What did you buy?

Nothing yet.

Not looking at anything interesting either. One of my Volk center caps has gone AWOL, and I've found a number of likely candidates to replace it. Also an R31 keyring :)

Japanese schoolgirl?

Hmmmm.... group buy?

5k will buy you one thats on the road....but not well, unless your very lucky. i payed 4.5 for my girls one ('68 with the roof racks, Venetians etc) but i have rebuilt the motor since in it.....

I found in the 5k bracket you either get one with a good body and stuff drive train, or vice versa. never a nice combo or compromise.

anything below 4k was just plain screwed :(

what happened to the days of buying an old Volkies for 500 bucks slapping some number plates on it and just driving.... :(

oh, and if this rain stays im not coming down tonight...spent too long this arvo saturated in the rain to wanna go out in it again

If you haven't gone, probably a good idea not to go. Another storm just brewed up and is headed our way... again, hail

Shit tonne of hail hit my sisters place @ parkinson

I hear ya. My other bugs cost me $500 and $1300 both straight on the road. There seem to be some half decent ones around at the moment for under 5. Some really nice ones between 6&8. I want to do a lot of the work though. So as long as the engine is decent enough for a daily then i'll settle for a slightly less than decent body.

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
