Hey Benm,

Can you give me Nathan's contact details? I thought wow that is just the car I want to get.. then I looked at the pictures and realised that place he got it repaired (and bought it from?) is North Shore Prestige - the place I am going with.

I wouldn't mind finding out how long it took him to get his in!!! You said he got it 3wks ago, I never saw that car there come in so I'd like to ask him a couple of Qs..

Cheers,

Tim

He actually bought it from that shop. (didnt get it imported) It was in there showroom, very spanky car and he paid an awesome price.

I wonder if he wants me to add the pics of his now damaged Skyline. I get shivers down my spine just looking at the frontend damage pics. :(

I'll pass your details onto him.

Hey Guys,

I am the owner of 'Nathan's '96' :(

In defence of the 'auto' decision... It didn't take me long to find this car. Exactly what I wanted and in pristine condition. If you find exactly what you want, you don't have to wait for it from Japan and you don't care whether it's auto or manual... enough said. I was really lucky finding this one.

The guys at Northshore were really good, but they don't know how to detail a car... That's really the only gripe. They even told me, after my dad nearly wrote my car off a few weeks ago, that I didn't need to worry about warranty etc. if it takes a while to repair and that if I needed something repaired under warranty and couldnt make it to Manly, i could get some quotes closer to home and they would probably cop the bill.

On the accident subject, have any of you guys heard of that happening to any other skylines? IE car accelerating and brake pedal hard (not able to brake). I suppose you don't hear of many people around with autos... I can post the pics if you want....

Hey Nathan,

Sweet. There is a car coming in to NSP on Monday which is exactly what I want, but some clown put a deposit on it. So I'm going to hope he backs out, otherwise Josh will continue looking for a car for me on Japan (he's the guy who lives in Japan).

Will the entire job be done under warranty? Because the accident was caused by a part under wty?

Cheers,

Tim

Yeah ive been to your site afew times actually. Not sure how i found it but i did - plenty of info and a nice looking site.

Must cost u some serious hosting fee's ?

I've just emailed 6 pics of mine off to you benm.

Timmy G - these are some of the pics I was talking about, I decided to reduce them in size and put them up. You can always come and take a look at my car if you are wanting a silver s2... take it for a spin.

North Shore Prestige is in Manly isn't it? I went there and they tried to sell me a soarer.

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
