i'll watch it later on today.. doesnt need much to fix by the look of things. bar bonnet guard grill...

was thinking about getting back into one and selling the evo.. but its a bit soon..

was it anyones here??

its crazy they pay out cars with so little damage the cost of the parts from nissan must be huge. 10k atleast..

my guess is about 8-10k auction price..

someone could have a nice looking axis for about 15k on the road.. however not in nsw.

Yeah the quote he received for new parts was fairly excessive. You could technically have it on the road for a lot less, but I think to repair a write off you need proof that quality parts were used? Either way, the breakdown for new parts was:

New parts from NISSAN japan come to a total of $14K.....

brief breakdown;

Bonnet - $3.7K

LH Headlamp - $2.2K

Bumper - $2.3K

Grille - $1.8K

Radiator support panel - $1.4K

Quality parts no, just need to provide receipts of parts used.. this was done to stop the people stealing cars. stripping them out, buying them back at auction and re fitting all the parts.. good ol sneaky Bankstown eh?

will have to long on soon to check it out.. will be up around 1pm today

will let you all know here what it makes..

I'd say you could have had that on road for 9k...

however i just read the info forum.. and the insurance company offered it back to him for 6K?

i expect to see this up next week again.. passed intoday possibly..

  • 1 year later...

Gents, this was my wifey's old Axis....definitely was only cosmetic damage but got paid out and 48hrs funds were in my account. It went for $3200. Ins offered it back to me for $6K.

The guy that purchased it was a panel beater so lucky for him all his labour to get it back on the road was free. It did still set him back about $5K in parts. It was going to cost me all up $10-11K to have back on the road AND having said that it will of have the repairable writeoff against it's VIN history.....

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
