Spotted a nice white 33 with a friendly owner at the Kaleen servo not long ago, didn't have time to stop and chat as I was in a bit of a hurry. Anyone on here by chance?

That was me. Nice to ..kind of.. meet you :D

My GF was impressed with the 34. 'Why don't you get one of those?' heheh.

Very nice car.

a bloke at work was telling me that there was a bunch of kids running around smashing windows of cars parked out the front of houses last night, one of his cars got done, and most cars parked out the front in the street also got hit, the kids were allegedly running around yelling "Backwindow Bandits"

This was in Kambah btw

Spotted just then (8.45pm) a silver R32 coupe turning into Fyshwick from Canberra Ave.. sounded good..

Yeah, I did. I might come out on fri... not sure. I'm stuck at work till 10pm though so i dunno yet :rofl:

The car isn't perfect, as you'd know since you looked at it, but it's pretty much just scracthes and dings that are wrong with it (just had the back tyres replaced today, as the existing ones were too bald to pass rego, but what can you expect from a 2nd hand sale ;)) Other than that it runs fine. Not terribly concerned about the body for the moment, as once this years out of the way and i've finished my studies I have big plans for my baby... Just not exactly sure what they are yet :D

(though if there happens to be something you know/noticed about the car that I may have missed, by all means let me know)

    • 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.
