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

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
