at $78mil it comes in cheaper than a lot of expensive yachts, fark id go for one of these over a yacht! And you cant dive to 305m below sea level with a yacht

I can just appreciate the design and engineering that goes into something this big. I f**king love watching Nat Geo and Discovery for stuff like that, watched them build one of the worlds biggest oil tankers, and how to build an off-shore oil rig. Fascinating shit.

If you sold your car Krishy, youd get 3-4 nights in the Queens Grill Room. Just over $4000 a night.

whats to say i need to sell my car Damo....what if i can afford 3-4 nights :ninja:

Queen Mary 2 and Titanic are nothing compared to the HMAS R33

Contrary to media reports, the collins are actually pretty decent diesel subs. They only run on batteries when submerged ;P

Still, theyre a long way from a boomer like the typhoon or an attack sub like the Los Angeles class... time we went nuclear instead of diesel imho ;P

Who needs to dive 305 metres below sea level. There are no bikini clad women down there :)

Just rock up in one of the Sunseeker Predators :)

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I highly rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
