As previously posted, a P-plater kindly ran into the drivers door and front quarter about a month ago. Repairs were carried out by Hybrid/Vision in Artarmon and are perfect. Even good enough to satisy me, which is a VERY big ask...

All new panels and parts were shipped from Japan, with minimal repairs, and maximum replacement with new parts carried out.

The car looks and drives exactly the same as it did before the accident. If I didn't already have my heart set on a GTR, I would keep this car.

What sort of GTR are you looking at buying ?

[Ethan_R32]

hey Merli,

I replied to your post in the performance forums.

But i was wondering if youre willing to sell any of the performance parts (suspension BOV) separately.

I would sell my car and buy yours if it had a few more performance mods like intercooler, etc. Do you know what sort of power it has?

[Young GT-R]

That is a sexy looking car, if I had $23,000 I would offer it to you right now.

Maybe in a year I will have a car like that :cry:

[Nismo_Boy]

thats one sexy beast you got there.

[KamikazeR33]

indeed it is sexy

im in love with it

might not buy a series 2 now and try and buy urs

god damn nice

with perfect plates too

[Merli]

Yes it is sexy

Ethan_R33: no, I don't want to remove anything from the car. Too much trouble, and I think the car looks nice the way it is... Why don't you put your intercooler on this one then?

Seems to have been thread-jacked by yet another debate on whos right and whos wrong about GTS valuations!

Who cares what they are worth...... at the end of the day if the seller can get what he wants/needs to for the car its all good...

private sellers/importers are in a different class to dealers - people will always be prepared to pay a premium when buying at a dealer for the peace of mind that they have someone to come back to if theres a problem..... thats really the under lying point here.:uh-huh:  

by by.. nizman has appologised to merli for going a bit off topic and i too sent merli a pm about the thing..

however ure point is right.. at a dealer u will always pay alot more than private sales.. however just cause a dealer charges those prices doesnt mean that ppl will pay them on the private market, however merli's car is a rare one and anyone that would have seen it will agree it is definately one of the nicest sky's going around..

i have deleted the other non relevant posts.. apologies again to andrew(merli)..

[Merli]

I've decided to keep the car.

I couldn't bear to sell it, and none of the people who came to look at the car deserved to own my baby.

That, and I have decided that a GTR isn't worth $40,000 more than my car.

All in all, tough titties. She's staying with me.

Merli. :uh-huh:

[PranK]

nice choice!!

[U WERE MINE]

LEGEND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i still want ure wheels though

[JiMb0]

Hehehe, this is the third time I've seen a Sky owner want to sell and then retract It's bewwddiful

[KamikazeR33]

Your spot on there JiMbO

i wouldnt wanna sell my baby if i did the same as what uve done to it, one of the best looking gtst's out there

y not try and save up for a gtr and keep ur gtst too

i know it may be a long way off but y not eh?

Merli,

what seats did you have in the car at the time of the accident (i was there unfortunatly, sad night!) where they out of an Integra or were they just bought from a recaro dealer (do you happen to know the model and if you don't mind me asking, the price?).

i am entertaining the idea of replacing the seats in my GTR with them , they look awesome and probably more comfortable!

Thanks

[Merli]

They are Recaro SR-IIIs out of an Integra Type-Rice...

Despite what people tell you, they are not the same as the Recaro SRs you can buy from Roman Autotek... They have firmer padding and they squeeze tighter around the thighs and sides of your back...

To get the Recaro SRs from Roman Autotek retrimmed in the same Recaro materials as the Type-R, it would cost $800 a seat, as quoted by Roman Autotek. Add to this the price of the seats ($995 each I believe), and you have very expensive seats to replicate.

Best bet is to find someone with a Type-R who wants to upgrade their seats... I won't give you an price indication, because they can charge as much as they want for these awesome seats...

If you're coming on ONARUN's cruise tomorrow, you can try the seats out...

Merli. :uh-huh:

[YO880]

sorry, just got my name changed..

unfortunatly i won't be able to get there tonight, my car is in getting a new gearbox and clutch.. Will definantly take you up on that offer next time i see you though..

Any idea where to even start looking for these integra seats? what could they possibly upgrade their seats to? i have checked out as recaro's web site and they seem to be the best seat available (that hasn't got a fixed back, and fixed base, i still want those features..)

Thanks

[Merli]

Trend, Sport, Style... They're all more upmarket... Electric seat positioners, memory functions, inflatable lumbar support...

Believe it or not, Recaro SRs are the 2nd cheapest (decent)Recaro available... Right after the dodgy N-Joys that Proton put in the GTi. There are cheaper, but you wouldn't even bother sitting in them to test them out...

Merli. :uh-huh:

[YO880]

they may be electric and stuff, but are they as hugging as the RSIII's and GTR seats.. don't want to go backwards :-)

Thanks,

[PranK]

speaking of which, do you want to sell me your GTR seats when you get the RECARO's kent?

[Merli]

No... I believe that the SR-IIIs are the tightest recaros available...

I'm sure someone with some prototype Recaros from Germany will prove me wrong on this

Merli. :uh-huh:
