good evening. first shot at moving on two stripped out coupes worth of parts i've amassed. looking to get the bulky parts gone first and run through to the fiddly bits as time goes on. inviting sensible offers on the two rear windscreens that were a pain in the arse to cut out and have three good rear (two lefts) quarters to sell. if i can get home from work before dark one of these days i'll get a few pics up of the first lot of bits. no engine/transmission/brake assembly parts, all bars are gone, and one was drivers door stoved with the other a drivers front damaged. most interior parts available and some electrics/trim/suspension arms. lsd diff and its cradle are also still here. cars were gunmetal painted some scary lime green colour and the other is silver.

located in mackay queensland which might hinder things to south dwellers, but if you are prepared to cover or arrange the freight, all can be gotten to anywhere.

bit scared this will be pruned as there are no prices, but i've really no idea what any of this gear goes for so will peruse others r33 ads to see whether i'm being unreasonable or copping a pineapple. pm's would be preferable and will be checked regularly. not chasing the earth or in any rush but would like to help out others as i've no need for these bits and someone may as well get some use out of them.

thankyou kindly for your time, glen.

good evening. the engine harness is delegated to my rb25 ute project and the other is pre sold by the old owner. thanks for your query though matey.

the struts i have are standard and are sold sorry bloke. all the rear control arms and the left fronts are fine and available as is a front rack and a single rear axle driveshaft (was left hand side. not sure they differ left to right but best they keep their drive orientation).

got stuck for 11 hours today on the highway after a fatal accident or i'd have responded earlier. not going anywhere else for a while so should have pics sorted out soon.

thanks for your patience. glen.

    • 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.
