yeah. Its only because you need to have 4 mechanics sent on a special training course and alot of special tools for the gtr, where as the leaf only has 1 or 2 special tools. Theres probably some other stuff i have forgotten, i was told by my boss when i asked about it ages ago. Also for some strange reasons leafs sell better than gtrs here. shitboxes haha

$40k to travel a max of 170kms before "power up", and what is the kmph and torque?

never mind discussing the asthetics of this beast ....sheeesh..

oh so pedestrian these vehicles

They should just build travelators for folk who would ever consider buying one of these or other brands of similar vehicles

I pray - Please GOD destroy our world before these proliferate the earth - AMEN

You're looking at it the wrong way.....$3 for a full tank, and quick enough to come 1st and 3rd at the last SAU Texi.

Electric cars are definitely the future, the sooner they release a 000z the better :)

lol I couldn't even get it to Canberra let alone Melbourne.

Anyway, sorry about the OT, I guess my point is I think selling Leafs is a lot smarter than selling GTRs....pretty easy to see which one is going to sell more over the years.

Especially in Canberra! Let's face it, there's a lot of conservative nimbys here!

(not saying you have to be like that to buy a Leaf :P )

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I highly rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
