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 :(

    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
