This car is a PIG!

This car was purchased by a member of this forum and asked if I would go and pick it up for him, which I arranged for 6:30pm tonight.

The address was given as Corner of Ben Boyd Rd & Aubin St Neutral Bay and the seller doesn't live there at all. He surfaced from a house about 4 doors further down the road and I found him sitting in the car trying to start it.

If anyone would like to inspect this car and give me their opinion, it is parked in Aubin St just near the intersection of Ben Boyd Rd.

With the exception of the damaged bumper on o/s/f none of the rest is conclusive enough in the ebay provided pictures, particularly as they were taken in broken shade of a tree.

In addition, it has an oil leak, it would not start, n/s door mirror broken & both rear window switches are missing. Bit of a contradiction to "car runs smooth & no problems at all".

When quizzed about the missing door switches, his answer was "they work".

Cheers, D

new world record!!

No No. I paid $19,000 for my first RmR30 new of course. Ti Auto with a bag full of extras.

$360 for a poverty pack RMR30, manual, for spares.

$300 for Goldie. Much worn R30 Ti manual.

$1,200 for Greenie, an R30 Ti manual.

So I think Greenie holds the record for "new" R30 Ti.

I scored my 84 TI with 146k for $400

Another 83 Ti manual with 300k for $300

then a pov spec 82 used as a drift car for last 3 years for $50

about to convince the mrs about another Ti

still hangin out for a 2 door, banged my head farkin hard on the seatbelt mount on a speed hump today grrr...

(190cm is too tall for a hatch)

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
