I bought my 33 from them about 4 years ago. Was happy with them to deal with and would happily go back again if there was a next time.

Only issues that ever come up with the car were related to the modifications I have added.

Luke

at least get a manual, geez it takes like what.. a few hours to pick up manual? and a few more days to perfect it?

You'll be a much happier mann.........

The amount of times i've heard ppl say........

"is that car non turbo?" thennn 'is that car auto' *drives off*

Actually got two cars off them so far. r33 which i got in december 2008, took me half an hour to cut them $200 off the advertised price. got my current car from them half a year ago. paid exact price as they advertised, but got immoboliser put in for free. From my exp. you will be lucky to take a few hundred dollars off the price they ask for. As Kezr33 stated, they are a businnes after all.

Paid cash for both cars by the way, which didnt really make any difference on the price.

Also bought my 33 s2 off them... If buying from a dealer would recommend.. Let me test drive a few different cars.. Couldn't get them down much on price, but jeff i think his name was threw in as much as he could, got r34 rims, japanese snow chains, new front suspension, even sprayed my calipers for me when changing the rims lol... also had to wait 1-2 weeks to have it registered so the boss lent me his stagea untill the 33 was registered... all up was very happy with the service etc.

In hindsight though would have been better off buying private off someone who's already done the standard bolt ons.. don't think the condition would be much different.. Dealer Stock r33 @ $12-13 vs Private Lightly modified (zorst, pod, cooler, suspension, wheels) r33 for about 12-13... do the math.. and then can get straight to the fun stuff like bigger turbos injectors etc. Just my 2 cents anyway ..

Yeah thanks guys. Some guys say that they've managed to get $1k+ off the price and others struggle to even just get a few hundred off the advertised price.... seems really hard on how I would cope trying to bargain them with the Carsales R34 Link I posted in the topic ... damnn it! That car has been on sale for a couple months now so I would assume it is a bit overpriced at $15k really.... there are turbos for say $13k so!

They're simply just taking advantage of the demand for N/A lines.

Yeahh thats a valid point - but I don't get why GT-T's are even cheaper than what this N/A is priced at seriously... although it is a dealer but yeah. You reckon I have a chance for bidding 13-13.5k?

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
