I have cancelled the order. I am now buying a better one from UNIQUE auto. I missed out on buying this one 4 weeks ago but it has come back up for sale. App it is the best GTR example in Australia. I know that is a hug statement, but those words where coming from a GTR expert who has seen many in his life. It was brought into the country new in 98, and has had $30k spnt on it since. It has only 10,000 kms on the clock. I cant wait to see it.

Lucky you!

I saw the car you are talking about at Unique Autosports. It has 19 inch wheels, gorgeous silver colour, huuuuuge brakes and other tasty mods. A bargain at $59 grand. When I saw it a month ago they told me it was sold? (my old man was dead keen). Maybe that deal fell through.

That GTR will be the envy of all (except perhaps if you own a R34 V Spec II :-)).

cheers

Hi, i been a member on this forum for a fair while now, but never been into the act section, i live in QBN, and you will see me cruising civic and braddon almost every friday night burning petrol in a charcoal/grey r32 gts25, with p plates next to the number plate. Cant miss my muffler sound, it snaps any where from 2-3000rpm, its a crazy noise, i am still undecided as to wether i like the noise or not, got silver multispoke 17's aswell.......hope to see you guys around.....ps - damn there are some r33's in Canberra.....not complaining, but i like having my r32 coz there isnt as many..yet

Hey all, I'm new to this site and skylines in general. Recently bought a silver R32 GTS-t. Also work in fyshwick - seems a couple of you also do. Car is dead stock so far (put in new shocks, autometer oil press guage, timer), but with limited finances what can you do. I also go to UC (sometimes...). Keep an eye out around town for you

aw and here i was thinking u just wanted another forum to whore around in Ewen :( hehe jk

well, heaps of ppl on here have got their cars from Prestige...they have a very good rep. Probably the best rep out of all the importers I'd say. Have heard a couple of ppl who weren't 100% happy but you get that i spose. Who knows the full story..they might have stuffed Prestige around and then whinged when things didn't go their way..

anyway, I'll most likely get my next car thru them :(

I'm just waiting for prices of good R34 GTT's to come down a bit :D :D

dont be fooled!!! ewen is a post-whore and has come here to dominate all :D

and hey shell, nice car, see it at work all the time, which is kinda ironic since me and lantis both work there too :(

Meanwhile, I had myself a nice beautiful R32 GTR lined up, but problem being im like 6ft 5/6 tall, and yeah its not too comfortable :D so now scraping together pennys for next best thing... r33 gtr :( (although at my rate of savings + spending its gonna take a lifetime)

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
