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.

    • I refer you to this thread on PF, by someone who knows what he's doing. Paints a good picture of the humble AD09.
    • Ha, I've never pressed the X in all these years incase it removed the notification for all Admins
    • I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.
    • Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!
    • I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)
