Hey guys, My names Racqel.

I am looking for someone to kindly let me use their car (they can obviously drive it) for my formal, which is in November (2011).

It will be driven around the Wollongong area, to the photos, then to the formal, that is all.

I am willing to pay 100-200 dollars, for an hour.

I am looking for a clean silver GTR (R35)

or a 34 gtr.... if it's nice enough :P

please get back to me ASAP!

"I am willing to pay 100-200 for an hour"

Is the above said paragraph separate from the rest of the thread? If so, may we gentlemen relay what other services 'er extras we can offer for that price and within that time frame?

Ok, here's a constructive comment for a change;

There's very little R35's around in the entire country, then again the section of those that is silver is smaller again. So the chances are pretty small.

On top of that, the chances are that if one was available and in Silver, they'd live in Sydney. So out of the $200 on offer, they'd be making $150 after expenses...

....but the biggest issue? Someone with an R35, which is worth over 100k, probably has plans that dont involve formal runs.

Sorry to be blunt.

You're better off to find a nice R34 GTR (and there's certainly a few of them on here) and make the offer to the owner. If you find one with a big exhaust and cams it will sound downright angry and lets face it, you want it to stand out in the crowd and have a better car than your friends - the sound of a tuned RB26 at idle with cams will sound so much better than the usual formal cars like H2 hummers, S class Merc's etc, believe me that will grab attention.

Here's something I took my mates sister in to her formal a few years ago, this thing sounds great and there wasn't a single person in that line not looking at it. Sounded a million times better than the other cars there on the day;

End of the day, you'll have better luck finding an R34 GTR. Good luck with it.

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
