on the way back from work coming down northbourne near the nokia store, spotted a big black hummer in the rear view. im thinking it was the H3, as the other 2 dont fit in australian road lanes do they? besides i heard the H3 was coming to aus, so i assume that was it.

me, im more of an escelade man me'self :O

also heard a 32 GTR go around the round about near st clare of assisi conder at full boost. thought it mighta been nik?

Had an interesting lil squirt with a yellow/goldish R33 with a big wing up near the G-Spot last night.

Plates said "Yeah baby" or something last night.

Hehe, got him good at that red light.

Edit: Also spotted GT-Passage out last night, good to see you coming to some of the cruises man. Tough car!

Yeah i think she lives there now. chris has struggled to get the right wheel bearings, and keeps finding a new CV boot has split each day, the bloody car has 8 of them.

he was fairly apologetic on friday that i couldn't get my car back for the weekend and he offered me his Z for the weekend. there was no way i'd take that, i couldnt drive a car that expensive.

fingers crossed i get it back this week some time, i'm getting withdrawals

    • 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.
