on another note.

found out im alergic to crustaceans... the hard way.

eat a prawn. start scratching. then start feeling as though hiroshima happened all over again but in my gut

That's weak.

If I eat cashews, they can possibly kill me.

apparently the only thing I'm allergic to is about 500gm and more of Cadbury milk chocolate bars. wtf.

anyways... just bought two of these to write off on tax. w00t.

take your diff housing and all out and put another diff in? cheaper and faster isn't it?

If you can get me a nismo diff centre I'll do it. But I'm not paying $2000 for one lol

edit; woops forgOt I'm on cas' account

200k service parts (water pump, timing belt, thermostat, bearings, fuel filter) - $530

Adjustable cam gears - $120

Radiator - $200

Brake master cylinder - $260

Thermo fan + controller - $650

Sard 550cc injectors - $630

Labour (retune, installation of parts, gtr injector cleaning & testing) - $2000

Total: $4390

f**k, no wonder im poor, blew a shit load this month haha

lol $4500 is about 75% of the price of your car. Why not sell and trade up with spare cash? betcha an R32 GTR (should come within your budget if you sold the gtst and added the extra cash) with a service is as reliable and fast as your GTSt.

    • 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.
