hey riaz!!! everyone is telling me there is no way i am going to get my car back the way I was talking to you about it..... :D i guess I shouldnt get my hopes up

do you know what skylines go for at auctions - one with a rear end hit (about $500 damage)... is there a big market for them?

thanks so much for the advice though - I am still going to try

you dont find any skylines at any auctions unless they are write offs.

usually to find one at a regular auction means the owner is not online and thinks the auction is a good way to get alot of money for a car.

i reckon still make the phone calls, like we talked about. it ideally all comes back to what percentage the car represented in the loan agreement as to what they want for it. but seriously cos you know the value and roughly what you are gonna pay, dont stress.

put the question out there. how many people have been through your situation and tried to buy their car back, would you even get 1 answer thats a yes.

i havent done that either, but I do know what goes on behind the scenes 85% of the time

i think you will fine.

I am going to phone the guys case manager from the bank - the one I have spoken to at least oncea week and I am going to do what you said - offer the reserve... but this is a $18000 car for like a $30 - 40000 loan... dont ask me how, what etc hahah all I know is that he used the skyine as security for the loan or whatever. So the bank will want to get as much as poss... which worries me that they think they will get more than the reserve at auction.

Dumb privacy act is preventing me getting too much info - but the copper that i have pressed charges with was a cop with my dad... so he has been getting alot of info for me

    • Actually, if having and keeping the stock ECU is the plan, the correct answer is to put Nistune into the ECU and improve the situation, not just look at it.
    • Wrong side of sydney for me coming from Goulburn, but you should head along, all ages of Skylines will be very welcome
    • Yeah so physically that port is consult not OBD2, but also be aware that "JODB" is not really a thing - it came in around 2000(ish) but is not a standard like ODB is, each manufacturer had differences. If you are looking at ECU only and have a standard ECU, go with Datascan as Turbo Tapin said. Per another recent discussion here thought that won't do other systems like in a modern car, for example bleeding ABS
    • They're not rebuilt Racepace items. They were mint. From memory the were ex display stock that I bought off yahoo and he ran....from memory he barely used the REs when he replaced them with a set of Tein RS If have been stored correctly and not leaked fluid then they will be mint   As an observation the Racebuilt rebuilt Tein RA/RE/RS were a better street/club/track package. Really nice on the street and did good numbers at the track.  I think the factory Teins wont match the Racepace valving on the street but would be in the same window of performance on the track... albeit firmer
