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

    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
    • Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.
    • I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
    • LOL well, lucky mine doesn't have some R shit on it. Around town, it handles so much better than the R33, R33 in the wet is pretty dangerous to the untrained hoon, especially with 13kg/mm front springs.
