is the car registered as a rb25det yet or still non turbo with non turbo brakes???

if its been reg with all the turbo stuff it would be an ok price if rust and paint repaired.

This car is the perfect car to get targeted by sapol atm ....

if you get pulled over in this car, ( especially with the current situation in sa) cops will know its non turbo beucase of the brakes ... they arent stupid any more and have undergone training to spot these kind of things,

maybe uopgrade the brakes on this car , before palming the problem onto someone else.

Looks like a good clean track car thoug! good luck wit hthe sale,

have rang up the rego department about converting a non turbo to a turbo. have thought about doin it myself. the brakes need upgradiing, exhaust emission test plus you have to apply to regency for what else needs to be done. its also up to them if the car needs a full inspection which means it would have to be converted back to stock and the upgrades fitted. if you paid 12.5k for it you could be looking at 16k by the time you buy parts and get ppl to fix it. then the paint issue and rust. looking at 20k to get the car on the rd and to look clean.

its called research and knowing who is in the game and what it all costs.

if you dont know thats not my prob.

my prob is the ppl trying to rip others off knowing that they are goint to be raped by the cops and then raped by regency there after.

remember mechanics cost $70 and upwards per hour. depends on where you go and whats wrong.

and how much u think a decent respray costs???

well, you clearly don t no what your talking bout with those figures you posted up in your last reply, either that or the people you know that are in the "game" enjoy ripping you off.

how can you say trying to rip people off? i've said it's no rego'd with a turbs engine and it stiil does need bigger brakes, if you don't drive like a wanker how do you figure the cops wiil rape ya? why does it need a respray? the paint really isn't that bad, you haven't even seen the car in person so don't continue posting up your bullshit opinions in my thread..

    • Hmm makes things tricky then.  I can't in good faith say, go forth my child and weld in whatever metal you remove in your quest for rust. I very strongly expect that adventure will end in sadness.  But you can't leave the car as it is, you literally have a hole in the roof. Also, I know you think the rust doesn't go much further, but the more I look at those photos, I really think the rust does in fact go much much further.  If you are 100% committed to being the only person working on the car.... stop where you are, hit it with rust converter, fiberglass, body filler, paint work, pretend you never discovered the rust in the first place?  Even if the body was repaired, painting the roof is a pain. Were you planning to use rattle cans to paint the roof?
    • Ok so I will not defend my naivety. I regularly feel like things look easier than they are.  As much as I'd love to, buying another vehicle is out of the question. It was hard to get this car through the family process and we just don't have the room.
    • If your current chain of thought is, I'll go somewhere like pick and payless (or equivalent) and causally remove the bit of roof with your BYO grinder then casually weld that into your car... oof. It might sound easy but you will 100% end up with a warped roof. You say you'd prefer some ugly fab work, but I don't know if your prepared for how ugly this will be lol.  I've seen professional welders do similar but easier repairs and still end up with warped panels.  It is reasonable to assume that from your current skill level, you won't be able to do this cut and paste job while keeping flat panels.  Ok, but we are here to learn. This might be the go... jump on car sales, sort by price, buy the cheapest thing with rego and drive it home. This is your new practice vehicle. If you're thinking of doing the cut and paste job, try it on this car. Cut out the panel (hey it's a perfect fit) weld in the panel. See what you think of the results.  Next thing you could try, practice removing the entire roof in one piece by drilling out all the spot welds etc. Have a crack and welding the roof back on.   
    • I've never welded but I own a welder and I've always wanted to learn. In fact I had already looked at a 1 day welding course in Sydney.  I'd prefer some ugly metal fab than anything weak.  I'm challenging myself a lot with this car. For so many years I've just paid other people to do things and I've always been keen to learn and get better.
    • Ok, thats a good starting point.  So before we start.... do you mind if the car say isn't a strong as it was before? My first thought is go excavating for rust. You'll be left with a gaping hole, that will be filled with fiberglass. You could make it look factory pretty easily but yeah, if you never crash it will never be an issue right? Before we look at other options, how confident are you welding?
