i went around driving to about 4 wreckers.. they all had **** all parts for the old aussie Skylines.. Bit poor really :(

Was hoping to get some better seats and trims, but in the end just bought a couple of small things that have been missing since i got it

If you read my other posts I am in a shity mood as I am sick of waiting for my line and waiting for parts , and today when some parts finaly did arive my duel piller mount had a crack in it. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHh

nah, i don't really cruise.. around town and shit at night.. not my thing..

u havent even got your 33 back? mine comes back next week..

haha.. thats not too bad, i was considering them for a while to.. even worse for me i am going non nissan *gasp* i think now

yer i'm most likely going to get a chaser.. 4 door twin turbo.. and luxury appointed.. and something different. With a few mods they can do 240rwkw .. and engines are good internally for 350rwkw or so, toyota make em stronger than nissans - much as i hate to admit.

    • 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.
