The exhaust would be handy. . . I reckon. .

I'm suprised that the insurer let him keep it if they paid it out, normally it goes to auction house to recover their deductibles

I think this guy has bought it from the auction. He probably got it for $1000 and now wants to make some $'s on fleabay.

Is anything ever cheap on greedebay anymore?

People seem to think their s##t is worth more secondhand than when it was new. :ninja:

Just put "rare" or "only one left in the known universe" and voila! One milion dollars...

I didnt get to see the add on eBay, but if it was black and has old looking Works wheels on it was sold threw Pickles Sydney, Just Cars total lossed the car as there had over $16000 worth of damage on it, someone paid over $7000 for it at pickles.

It's a shame the guy took it off Ebay, I don't think anyone of us here would have brought it to fix but for parts alone it could have made him some money.

I wonder what will become of it now, if anyone does hear anything make sure you post an update in this thread.

i rekon it will get parted up. or someones offered him 10k for it thinking its a 'good buy'

We should have got in touch with him and threw him a life line :D

We could have easily parted it up, wouldn't have been much left after we all finished!

Or he has just realised he cant sell a car that has been written off, with the pretence that it can be re-registered, maybe someone informed him of that fact . . . .

If he happens to be on this forum and it is highly likely, PM me with an asking price for that exhaust. .

There is one being auctioned by Pickeles tomorrow in Milperra if anyone is in that area.

http://www.pickles.com.au/damaged/vehicle/...lotid-202107380

Silver one, recovered stolen vehicle, some dents and the likes but still good for parts.

I didnt see this one go thru auction, you sure it was pickles??

Yes was threw pickles Sydney.

The one going threw pickles tomorrow is another Just Cars vehicle stolen recovered theft, owner was paid out last year and now Just Cars found the car, so will be sold threw Pickles should have no WOVA on the car so its not a total loss.

hmm leather and tv in that one at pickles!! looks like an RX, but its got the single DIN radio..........

and you CAN register a car thats been written off, but not if its a statuatory write off. that looks like a repair write off.

Ok let me ask a stupid question: if I pulled the leather heated seats out of a wreck could I fit them reasonably easily to my cloth int one? I'm assuming (maybe wrongly) that there's not a heap of wiring required for the power and heaters?

Mind you this one at Pickles will probably go for $7000+ if that's what the other one got. Although why do they say it's got no Comp plate?

if its got no compliance plate then it probably couldnt be complied for some reason. was it a 2004 model??

i could imagine there isnt much difference in the leather. ohh they are electric adjustable seats too, so there is wiring for that. whats the bet its all there anyway :sick:

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
