Should go to the police too, and report the incident. That way you can have a police report to back you up in court, and that dude will also get a fine for the accident

I tried calling them straight after the accident, didn't want a bar of it since no one was injured.

even if you go to the trouble of courts etc you might only end up with $50 a month if the blokes got no money, get ya 3k off insurance by it back part it out and move on.

sure as shit aint getting 7-8k for a busted asshole of car.

good luck brah.

Not having a go but I just have to ask how is a n/a auto 34 (GTV or not) worth 14-16k? What p plater would pay that much?

Just part it out, dont think you'll find anyone wanting to buy a potential write off plus shagged auto, just think of the headaches to get it fixed etc

This is why VIC is shit as you dont have to have compulsory insurance, would avoid head f**ks like this.

Tis what they're worth mate. The standard 25GT is about 4k less but yea, 14k mark for a GTV, and the autos tend to be more expensive. I'm a P plater and I got it for 14.5k @ 60000Kms originally. Bit of a story but I had to spend that much and I'm stuck on an auto license so i grabbed it.

I'd say autos are worth less with these cars, N/A or not... Or are you saying just GTV auto's command more money?

Regardless I hope you can make the best of what is a pretty shit situation. Good luck brah.

Unfortunately GTv is nowhere near 14k - Even for a straight and good condition one. An honest 12k tops with 80,000km to 100,000km range - anything higher IMHO is a rip off.

Auto versions of n/a are actually cheaper by around 1K.

I'd imagine most people wanting a GTv would be a P plater and most wouldn't want to screw around with getting a damaged one fixed. I'd also imagine most P platers wouldn't know the difference between a GT and GTv, all they would care is to ensure it is non-turbo.

Good luck with the sale though.

But going off from your description on the damage sounds like a write off :(

    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
    • A bit late but A disk S13P fit over stock R32 GTR brakes, usually A disk front, O disk rear works.
    • Or, the height of the release bearing is not correct for your combo. Start with the bleeding and checking the slave moves throughout its range when you press the pedal (2 person required), but it is possible for the height to be internally wrong too (box back off to measure.
    • Yes, there's quite a few things that can go wrong during a clutch install. Very unlikely. I have a similar clutch. They (ACS) make good gear. No, it is not normal. It is possible that you just need to bleed the clutch slave. But the new clutch will also have a more aggressive actuation force/pressure, and so your old slave cylinder might be a bit leaky or otherwise compromised, and not up to the extra force required. Or the master cylinder, same.
    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?
