I am seriously pissed off because I was meant to be informed when I could buy this car, but the dude was too slack to tell me. Now I find out that someone in Toowoomba has bought it.

It is painted in the falken race colours and was at Haulmark trailers/Falken in Oxley. If anyone knows him, I would like to contact him. Thanks.

u snooze u lose..

when you are selling something whoever comes thru with the money first is the winnah in my book.. especially when it comes to something like a car, when 50 people say "yeah, hold it for me because of blah blah blah, but next month I can, I'm interested".. then strangely enough when you go to contact them no answer

Thanks for the replies, haven't been on for ages. Yeah the car was cheap as because it had a cactus motor (or so I was told) but I know it drove alright and all that. Had oil through the air flow meters etc etc so it ran like a dog. But it was horny-as! (Like all R32 GTRs. I love them to death)

Yeah I found out how much I could have got it for and almost died. Wanted to kill my contact for not telling me he was ready to sell it. Put it this way, to put a new (wrecker) RB26 in it with turbos and airflow meters would have cost more than the car.

And the killer..... It was Australian delievered. :P

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
