I don't want to go to a meet where we end up standing around in a car park. I'd rather go somewhere for dinner or coffee whatever so you can sit down and talk shit rather than standing in a car park looking like a bunch of tools. My 2c.

Sent him a message to find out about postage. Another guy is keen on them so there goes my idea of lowballing him a bit more. Still decent price for those turbos.

Good stuff mang.

I'll come to the Jacks meets. Just as long as it's not sponsored by Team Monster Energy drinks and FlatCappers Inc.

Yeah thats why I feel its hard to really control lol. last time I threatened if I was there their number plates would be given to coppers so they never misbehaved lol.

Yeah I can understand that but its hard to do on a over 20 kinda thing.

Has anyone heard about those "We buy any car" places? I'd be interested to know what they model the valuation on. I'm not planning on using them or anything, just saw a sign on the train home.

I'm guessing they would just base it off redbook like most other dealers.

In other news. Looks like I'll be getting some new turbros n stuff for the car :thumbsup: Manager came and saw me yesterday to talk about pushing me through to a full Site Engineer position in the new year so the hard work is paying off. :cheers: Looking at getting some cheap -7s off here if the guy likes my offer + 34 GTR Dumps and a Nistune.

finally some power upgrades, but i'd be saving for an engine rebuild though.

This morning i met a man on a white motorbike who wanted a chat :(

So yeah i have, when selling the S15 on carsales...

If the time since the ad was created is more than 14 days and its still not sold they call you...

I was not interested in using their service at all, as you know everyone needs to make a buck so i feared their offer... I was right...

So redbook on the car said;

*$10,400 to $12,600 trade

*$12,000 to $14,000 private

*80,000 to 140,000km ODO

They offered $6k cash and they will organise a tow truck to pick it up.

I said "its registered and road worthy, its not damaged its as original as the day it was made"

They said "no $6k is our offer for the car in good order as described, the tow truck is simply so we can transport it"

I sold it for $17,500 a week later... That was back in March this year...

It was a Aussie delivered GT model, so i had to wait for the right buyer who was not distracted by import versions...

In short the "we buy your car now" people only live for the really despirate people, i mean really despirate...

Id be pretty sure they wont buy imports, or if they did its be seated before they gave a price...

"I have this R34 NUR, what will you give me"... "Arhh lets see, $6k"... lol

finally some power upgrades, but i'd be saving for an engine rebuild though.

Meh it has lasted 3 years with no problems. If I get the turbos and get another year out of it before needing a rebuild I will be happy.

-7s, 34 Dumps, New fuel pump and 15psi. 250kw? I'll be happy.

Wondered what a despirate was.

Used to describe a person who is so pathetically infatuated with a person or sexually desperate that they become so desperate, they actually plunder the meaning of the word desperate.

high flow cats too, you still got the compliance ones there?

Yeah 3 inch cat and either install the $100 front pipes I bought ages ago or try and get some pretty equal length ones.

So yeah i have, when selling the S15 on carsales...

Yeah, I didn't think they'd really be offering top dollar or anything.

    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox !
