Looks nice, good luck. I made heaps of offers on houses when i was looking and all offers were above the asking price and i still missed out on about 6 or so houses, was a crazy time to buy.

Cheers mate. Yeah I've made an offer or two on other houses and have missed out so I know it's a hard game to play. That being said, I wasn't as excited about the others as I am this one so I'll probably push a bit harder for it too

HIGHGLEN... Hi Glenn...inviting enough for him lol

nah looks the goods bud, hope this one works out for ya :cool:

Well I've probably found my house. Walked in today at the open and just had a gut feeling this was the one. Not getting too excited yet just incase I don't get it but will be making an offer on it :cool:

not you too?!

I put an offer on this 2 days ago and just got a knock back

It's a definite knock down on a nice bit of real estate overlooking a nice reserve

Hopefully something else comes up so I can rebuild

epic lolz at clipsal.

old dude was sneaking into corporate box to get free shit when he was climbing back down onto fence then wheelie bin. wheelie bin moved and he fell and landed on his head/shoulders while getting busted by staff.

dont know what happen to donut king r35 also :cool: was there the first 3 days but not the 4th. although he was trailing for most of the races unfortunatley and for some reason it was squeeky quite compared to the other cars.

just sent a payment off for those foglights.

and my bar is almost ready for paint.

already spent about 3 hours prepping it, probably got another 3 before its spot on.

being a perfectionist sucks.

sucks for the wallet, but you'll be that much happier when its all done to a high standard

my wallet sympathises

save for the upfront purchase of the bar and the lights, the wallet hasnt felt a thing. wet/dry paper, primers, fillers, epoxies, fibreglass kits, resins, all that have been purchased when needed over the last few years, just use what i have.

once i get the prep done to an acceptable standard, all itll cost from there is paint (~$100), and a jar of coffee ($30).

fixing that crack in the corner is gonna be a bit of a pain though.

anyone know if this compression test is good 10.5 11.0 10.0 11.0 10.0 10.0.
What measurement is that in?! Or is it meant to be 105, 110, 100, etc?

Even then, that's crazy low.

Im assuming he means its in Bar, in PSI it would be this:

152.25 159.5 145.0 159.5 145.0 145.0

If thats the case, the figures arent that bad in terms of thier levels, but 14.5psi difference is too much, Ive been told 12 is the max.

My RB20 is below 100psi on all 6 cylinders....

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
