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

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.

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
