I bought my R33 GTR from AJM recently,

I think I got a good deal however I did have to threaten to sue them when they wanted to cancel before i picked the car up. ( probably because they had a better offer )

When i picked the car up the $400 per tire yoka's on the back were bald.

Gee I wonder how that happened .........

Also the gearbox had automatic transmission fluid in it to mask some kind of problem but it seems ok now.

Loving the car now tho

sb..

try autoforce imports ive bought all my cars all 9 of them previously from them kevins always looked after me .. i suppose your after a non turbo GTS? he has both atm cehck out the web site give him a call www.autoforce.com.au

man, your dad is a mechanic, dont forget this, you can take him with you, and he can throughly check over the whole car even organise a day for him to take the car to his workshop and check it out. id go private, just get your car checked very good, and maek sure all parts are in good working order. i know why u want a GTS for and that is understandable for your age, a very sensible option i think. but use the number one thing that u have on your side, a family member that has mechanical knowledge. that is your best way to go, all car will have sum sort of problem some time in there life, its just a matter of time, but if you do this it will minimize the risk of anything bad happening to your car in the future from parts failure. so get crack in and find your ass a new ride! :D

Yeah i intend to take my dad with me.. i was just wondering what dealers are down in brisbane.. i would rather get it of privete sale.. as its that tad chreaper but odsnt offer a warrenty.. But in the end oif the day i my warrenty will no doubt be void when i put mods on it.. so maybe i can say keep the warrenty knock a bit of the price..

o WEll buying a trading post thsi weekend.

should warn you guys about publicly slandering a buisness, should really keep all bad encounters to either PM or dont name the buisness in question.

I do realise this, and I realise that by saying what I did is dangerous. But seriously, after what they did to us, I don't give a shit anymore. I am more than happy to give people several chances at being decent people. Hell, anyone that knows me can vouch for that! But they just went too far, and I know they did it to people before us, and are still doing it today :P.

Anyway, this thread isn't about them, it's about us giving the names of GOOD dealers in Brisbane... sorry I couldnt be of more help than just Autoshop and SVi :lol:

I have a mate whos girl friends sellin a gts, he only told me bout two days ago, he rekons its in a1 nick, never seen it or nor do I know why she's sellin it but if ur keen to take a look send us a pm and I will tee it up and get her number to you

    • How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.
    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.
