As per my original post on 11th November :(;

I am preferably looking for white Skylines, but at this point silver or other lighter coloured cars (probably not black) would also be ok - the wedding is going to be a very non-traditional summer wedding, and will feature plenty of colour, so if you own a well presented Skyline and are interested, please let me know.

As there was quite a bit of interest from red owners (and a purple), that is not out of the question either.

No big deal if everyone forgot and already has plans for that Saturday.

Thanks!

I got a burgandy/wine red colour r33 skyline if your after one of them to add to your list.

PM me and let me know.  More then willing to help you out mate.

PM sent, thanks John! ;)

Well, I just got back from the honeymoon late yesterday... major bummer having to come back!! :(

I must send out a HUGE thankyou to John (r33skyliner) and Andrew (Bunta), as well as their lovely partners, for coming up from Brissy and helping to make the day a big success! The guys and their cars were awesome - on time, very patient, and went out of their way to help out... even coming back and dropping off some keys after one of the bridesmaids left them in the car! :)

I won't forget it guys - I owe you both big time!! (check your PM) :cheers:

I'll post up some pics as soon as they come in...

    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
    • Yeah I've had too many issues with knock off's on the BMW's. I don't want to do a job twice or more because the parts are shit.
