I may also be able to source full doors for $1000ea.

I'm confused. So what you're saying is that you'll courier them if the buyer organises the courier?

I just wanted to clarify.

Im not really sure on how postage would work interstate on a large item, but i thought the buyer could organize a courier to pick them up from my house? and if yes. that's what i meant.

I would really like to see some better pics on the quality, and how well every thing fits in...

they don't do fiberglass do they? (Not sure if its a good idea, just checking)

Just to help you and others as these are large items;

You google "sydney to melbourne transport" (change cities of course), then about 20 results will come up that look decent most times, call the top 5 and say what you've got to send. They will want height, width, depth and weight. Tell them your address for collection, and the delivery address, then make sure you say "no rush they dont have to be overnight", then they will give you a price. Then ask if thats the best they can do as you're about to call 4 other companies and the lowest gets the work so whats their final price.

I used one place a while back who even offered a boxing service so i just gave them the parts, they did literally everything else. They sent a van to my house, picked up everything, that went to their warehouse, items were all boxed (buyer commented they were wrapped like fort knox), put on the truck, delivered in person to the buyers door 2 states away for something like $148 from memory.

Easy!

thanks bro, however i would rather buyer do all the organizing, like my last group buy i just ordered and payed for seats and picked them up in my own time on my own money, so i think its fair.

Well without dimensions, weight etc etc... that is utterly impossible.

can you not read ? do you think im stupid or something?

cant you see in post #1,7 it states im waiting for further information. and the official start is not till the 18th so there is 4 more days untill it is completely sorted out.

can you get plan fiberglass ones no carbon fiber?

no for second time :laugh: still awaiting more information from supplier will send another email, sorry about this.

    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
